1.) What is the overall feel of this song?
It feels very upbeat, happy, but rather relaxed. It sounds like a funk-rock song. It just gives me the impression that everything's alright and is very chilled out.
2.) What musical elements put off that vibe?
The guitar (I think that's what it is) sounds real upbeat, and the drums make the song sound relaxed. The instrument that sounds kind of like someone clicking their tongue causes the song to feel happy, and adds to its relaxed nature.
3.) Identify the choices the musician had to make to get this feel and why they worked?
He chose to make the music faster instead of slow, which adds to the happy nature of it all, since a slower song can imply sadness. He also chose to make the funky beats prominent, which adds to the upbeat feel of it all. They all worked because all the sensations gained from the individual elements mesh together well, forming a chill, relaxed, but also upbeat and happy song to listen to.
