Tell me what new smileys you would like - or maybe we could have a 'design a smiley' competition?

A musical emoticon to indicate that part of a post references a song (no really) I envisage a crotchet or some such.
An irony emoticon - perhaps a Monopoly-style flat iron. I can't imagine why it hasn't been done already.
A For-He's-A-Jolly-Good-Fellow symbol (to be combined with the crotchet possibly.) I really think we need to be be more positive, affirmative and supportive in our interactions with each other.

I spent a while recently searching for an irony emoticon. There are thousands of hits from newsgroups etc with people wanting one.
A literature group has proposed a typographic symbol, which is a sort of squiggle at the end of a sentence, to denote irony.
Good luck trying to find one - the whole www is waiting.....

Not perhaps immediately obvious - but it will do until someone comes up with something better . . .

Felt the lack of a wind emoticon this evening. Perhaps an umbrella blown inside out.
