To Find Happiness by Josh Pyke
Hooray! Josh Pyke’s new song ‘To Find Happiness’ is out today! Such a beautiful song, especially as we emerge into the world again.
Josh asked me (and many others) to put the song to a little video, to celebrate its release. I’ve had the song for a couple of weeks and have listened to it on repeat.
I went to Princes Pier two Sundays ago, the light was perfect, and the company too. I knew I wanted to capture my experience there to pair with this song. I found happiness while skating around – which Myekie captured on my phone (thanks!). Rollerskating brings me a lot of joy! (And Josh also said this could be an alternate video clip!)

#ToFindHappiness is on Spotify now. Check out Josh’s website for more places to purchase it.
Video: a woman with a red face, wearing a navy sea shell print dress, green skates, pink protective pads and a purple helmet. She’s skating around a large concrete space, smiling, laughing, talking. The view behind her changes as the video moves – a large light green pier building, and the sea and sunset. Skaters are whizzing by, some are standing, some are sitting putting on their skates. Music plays in the video. It’s a song sung by a man, featuring an acoustic guitar.
Music is ‘To Find Happiness’ by Josh Pyke.
Lyrics are: “To find happiness
You must always seek the warmth
In every sun.
To Find your love again
You must believe that
There’s a heart
For everyone
And if you’re sad today
Well that’s ok
Tomorrow lift your chin again
Our lives are like a child
Not ours to own
Just ours to
Give away
There’s meaning all around
The gift of autumn air
The summer sounds
A hand to hold
A fist too strong
To linger in
The sad songs”
I have permission from Josh Pyke to share this song.
