Harry Connick Jr.'s New Video Makes Us "Smile"

We love the new music video for Harry Connick Jr.'s song "(I Like It When You) Smile." 

The single is the second to be released from his 2015 pop-infused album That Would Be Me. As noted at the beginning of the video, Connick asked fans to send him pictures of things that make them smile, and the video is the result of those images strung together in an uplifting homage to feeling good. 

What do you think? Does it make you smile too? :)
