"Get Happy!!" is the 1980 album by Elvis Costello and the Attractions, known for its energetic blend of new wave, punk, and classic pop influences. The album features a tight, brisk format with 20 tracks that showcase Costello's sharp, witty songwriting and distinctive vocal style. Songs like "I Can't Stand Up for Falling Down" and "High Fidelity" reflect his signature blend of humor and introspection, addressing themes of love, disillusionment, and social commentary.

Musically, "Get Happy!!" is characterized by its brisk tempos and punchy arrangements, drawing inspiration from rhythm and blues, ska, and early rock. The album's ambitious structure and quick transitions create a vibrant, almost frenetic listening experience. While initially met with mixed reviews, it has since gained recognition as a standout work in Costello's discography, celebrated for its boldness and the way it captures the spirit of the late '70s and early '80s music scene.
