bad day?

…well if you’re havin one, watch one of my all-time fave music vids! :)

yes i feel gooby saying it about THIS particular song, but there’s just something about this video (and song!) that always perks me up!  partly its because the girl is totally adorable—she’s actress samaire armstrong…and the guy (jason adelman) reminds me of tobey maguire as peter parker/spiderman (who i am in LOVE with! hahah! [peter parker, not tobey!]  ive always loved nice nerdy guys!).  they are so cute together! hehe! ;)

i also love this vid because it portays the daily grind in a humorous and somewhat realistic fashion (i esp love the doodling!), but the little “love” story weaved into it just gives me the warm fuzzies (and i’m not like that too often! hehe.).  

and…the song itself is one of those ones i wanna play loud and roll down my windows as i drive down a curvy country road… 

okay so call me a cheeseball, but just watch the video!

if you’re havin a bad day, i hope this cheers ya up a little :)

enjoy the weekend!!

Bad Day by Daniel Powter.

Where is the moment when needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Tell me your blue skies fade to grey
Tell me your passions gone away
And I don’t need no carryin’ on

Your standing in line just to hit a new low
Your faking a smile with a coffee to go
Tell me your life’s been way off line
You’re falling to pieces every time
And I don’t need no carryin’ on

(chorus)
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 on 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…

(chorus)

(bridge)
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 all that strong, and I’m not wrong…(chorus)

When I am down, I just try to remember:

"Whatever doesn't kill me simply postpones the inevitable."

;)

and-- inside every silver-lining there's a dark cloud.

nice song... I liked the visual story in the video.
