I love this too; interesting trivia: -
The version of "Shine" performed during the band's Beautiful World Tour in 2007 featured an intro that was taken from the finale to the song "Mr. Blue Sky" by the British pop/rock group Electric Light Orchestra—this was also done on the group's subsequent The Circus Tour in 2009 and Progress Live Tour in 2011 (Informative Andy).

Its quite uplifting .
Its in my head at the moment becasue I've just found out there is a new series of excelelnt german cold war drama "Deutchland '83" coming out , which uses this tune for its theme music.
