"Happiness is Easy" is from the third 'Talk Talk' album 'Colour of Spring' from 1986. This album was my very first CD purchase, after finally adding a CD player to my stereo. It was the perfect album to kick-start the digital age for me... the sound production is fantastic. Even the children's choir in "Happiness is Easy" is spine-tingling... the absolute best song featuring children in the chorus (yes, better than "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2"). 'Talk Talk' released five great albums in their ten year existence (1981 to 1991).
They started off as a synth-pop band and ended up an experimental band... and the 'Colour of Spring' album was them at this perfect place between the two.
