To contrast with the depressing thread.

I'm gonna go ahead and say U. Can we agree on that? I might be missing an obvious one.

Haha...definitely a fun live number, but I've always looked at "don't it make you smile" as being sarcastic.

Exactly. But "don't it make you smile that the sun don't shine?" is like saying "what, are you seriously happy without me?" Or it could mean "does it make you happy knowing that I'm iserable?" Then, the person in the song just breaks down and admits that he undoubtedly misses the person, even though she has run off with someone else (three crooked hearts).

That's the way I look at. Certainly no happy.

It actually sounds like the band is having a lot of fun when they're playing Who You Are.
