the mitzva (command) to count the forty-nine days from Pesach (Passover) to Shavuos (Pentecost)

Why do we choose to mourn over celebrate during the omer?

It seems like this time would be a time of singing and dancing as we count to shavuot. Why does the mourning of Rabbi Akiva's students trump the celebration of the coming shavuot holiday?
