        What about:

        J Mascis – Take a run at the sun

        I don’t know if it’s uptempo, but it’s it’s absolutely a happy song!

                                  I don`t think of MBV`s Blown A Wish as being happy but you might think so,When You Sleep is a good happy MBV tune.The Pixies cover of Head On I agree on,great song <img>
