I've been spinning edm for 3-4 years, techouselectro (the dirtyer, the stickier, the better)! But i've always loved the brighter side, you know...
I've seen a lot of my friends (and you ;) ) bash the hell out of this genre, and for some people it seems that admitting to liking commercial house is like coming out of the closet, bitches are embarrassed to admit they like this, but yeah..
Currently tanning myself with the likes of:
Antoine Clamaran
Armand Van Helden
Global Deejays
Junior Jack
Disco Boys
Freemasons
Michael Gray
Ian Carey
etc..
Anyone wanna recommend some good tunes and march out of the closet with me? :)
We do it like this;
Armand Van Helden - The Funk Phenomena
Junior Jack - Da Hype

Armand rocks my Mr Oizo socks! No, seriously he's one of the few guys I look up to in EDM, he just does whatever the he wants. I was listening to his stuff long before I knew who PvD was, my uncle used to be a big DJ in Brazil and he loved his stuff. I love it too. My fave tune:
Lebezniatnikov
I'm a closet Kaskade fan. Love his productions. It might be more deep than you're looking for, but they're a lot of fun.

i think the Funkstar Deluxe remix of Bob Marley is the best on in this category, there is a fine line between the best stuff within this sort of house and essentially Hedkandi/Defected house. Hedkandi house tends to be really tacky, but essentially, when you are drunk and is dancing i wouldn't care. And i always thought Full Intention was best when it came to this stuff
but tracks, ye
Powerhouse & Duane Harden - What You Need (Full Intention Remix)
Milky - Just The Way You Are - Full Intention + Almighty Remixes
Bob Sinclar - Feel For You , oh bob why did you turn total
Masters At Work - To Be In Love (Full Intention Remix)
Mood II Swing - Can't Get Away (Rulers of the Deep Mix)
Tiger Stripes - Vem Sambar
Slippery People - Sweet Thing
woscar99
Deepest Blue - Deepest Blue
Eric Prydz - Call on Me
Junior Jack - Stupidisco
There's also a song that came out in 2004, "Gypsy - Gypsy" but I couldn't find a video for it...

Stardust - Music Sounds Better With You
Armand Van Helden - Full Moon
Michael Gray - The Weekend

always been a sucker for the Essential Dub of Mambana - Libre.
jerry ropero & denis the menace - u - always loved playing this, wild payoff after the break
can't say I like too much vocal house besides that
generally what I like about to house is jacking to a groove without distraction and even with that mambana track i can't stand the original and need the dub
edit - a little less commercial -
miguel migs - mesmerized (alix alvarez dub)
roomsa - tatiana (miguel migs salted vocal dub) (kind of an oxymoron, right?)
benni
nothing wrong with this type of house music at all
you can find most of it on the year mixes from Ben Liebrand

To me this is quality uplifting house music. I love it (though sometimes it crosses that point that I can't handle). I'd like to hear a set along these lines sometime, but it seems pretty rare.
