As I've explained our emotions are one of the factors our brain uses 
when deciding what we want to hear from a particular sound signal. It's 
not surprising that the sound in this case matches your emotion.

I'm less sad, so hear the sound as happier than that. These crows don't 
know the situation and are just enjoying life. Nice recording!
