Lost Video Island

[ashy_rulz88]

I need a song that would fit a vid featuring the Losties are little tykes. I'm using footage from a movie (which i'm not revealing at this moment) but i need a song, maybe one about "Youth/Childhood" or "I Remember When..."

I've already tried...

1) I remember when i was young - Matt Taylor
2) Forever Young - Youth Group
3) We Are Young - Supergrass

... and none of them work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!

Do you want this to be a happy or rather a sad vid?

Definitely a happy/light-hearted/humorous video.

I need an upbeat song that fits well... although i'm probably starting to get too picky.

Not necessarily upbeat, but songs that occurred to me:

Teach Your Children, Crosby Stills Nash and Young.
Mommy Daddy You and I or Stay Up Late, Talking Heads.
Young Americans, David Bowie.
My Generation, The Who.
Children in Bloom, Counting Crows.
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm, Crash Test Dummies.
Mama Couldn't Be Persuaded, Warren Zevon (Sawyer especially.)
Gabriel's Mother's Highway Ballad #16 Blues, Arlo Guthrie.
Que Sera Sera, Doris Day.

Last but not least, if you want REALLY traditional:
When You and I Were Young, Maggie, Johnson/Butterfield. (I thought it was Stephen Foster, alas.)

Thanks for all the songs, but most of them are kinda depressing, i want a more light-hearted one...

Which is why i've chosen (Remember the Days of the) Old Schoolyard by Cat Stevens.

Thanks for your help though!
