One Of Those Days

I'm having 'one of those days'... you know, when things just don't go right, things don't feel right, just yucky?

I have a song on my awesome entertainment system known as my Vibrant phone that I listen to when it's 'one of those days'. Yes, I know it's 'old' (i.e. not in the last day or so) If you have never listened to it... you gotta.  Go on, hit the button and watch... I'll wait.

Isn't it awesome? Just in case you didn't catch the words, here they are:
Daniel Powter BAD DAY

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

I have no idea why this song cheers me up.  I guess it puts life into perspective for me.  So I had a bad day, seriously, who doesn't?  Pick it back up and keep going.

You can go back and listen to the video again - I'm going back to editing my novel.  Catch ya on the other side of my blue sky holiday.

  1. I feel your pain. I woke up with a cold and staid in bed most of the day. Yucky. C u Monday... hopefully without a tissue box, lol.

    Oh, I think I found a spot downstairs at the library where we can work and talk and not get kicked out for being passed puberty.

  2. I'm so glad I came by. I've had those kinds of days. And if I am not careful, I can let one bad day bleed over into another. Every day is a new day & is worth entering with a happy and open mind!!
