THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE
14th June 2015
Those of you who believe in astrological signs will definitely think that "The Best Day Of My Life", the closing track to Michael Mikey Brennan's debut self-titled album, reflects the optimistic personality of his zodiac, Sagittarius, perfectly. Produced by Bower Grove School music technician, Toby Starks (founding member of Wheeler Street, The Starks Family Band and later, The Lowly Strung), the Disney-esque folk pop song, dives into the day and life of a 16-year-old school boy, sceptically approaching the day with a positive outlook. A similar lyrical theme to "Believe In Yourself", the opening and closing theme song to children's tv series Arthur, which Mikey and Mr. Starks covered.
LYRICS
Written by Michael Mikey Brennan
When I wake in the morning
When the day is dawning
When I'm no longer snoring, I'm yawning
The sun is shining
And I'm trying, to get out of bed
Time for school, school is boring
I don't wanna go to school, it's too early in the morning
​
And I'm just lying in my bed
Thinking about what you said
And the thoughts in my head go boom, boom, boom
And I wake up
Then I get up
Run downstairs and go
​
Hey, it's a beautiful day
And I say, today is a new day
For me, and you, and everybody too
And if I try, it'll be the best day of my life
All the things you dreamed of are coming true
You need to believe it, you can do it
I believe in you, do you believe in yourself too?
You can do, whatever you want to do
Hey, it's a beautiful day
What do you say?
Today is a new day
For you, and me, and whoever else there may be
And if you try, it'll be the best day of your life
Hey, it's a beautiful day
We all say, today is a new day
For all of us
And if we try, it'll be the best day of our lives
It'll be the best day of my life
The best day of my life
It'll be the best day of my life
The best day of my life
The best day of my life
And after a long hard day
I'm lying in my bed, dreaming in my head
And I say
Hey, today was a beautiful day
And I know, tomorrow is another day
For me, and you, and everybody too
And if I try, it'll be the best day of my life
​
The best day of my life
