Musical Monday

It's been a while since I've posted a song that I find inspirational or up beat. With all of the things that have been going on lately, I just wasn't in the right frame of mind to post songs that were inspiring when I myself felt down in the dumps. Now that I think about it, maybe if I had listened to upbeat songs on my iPod and posted them on my blog, it might of helped me cope with all of the news and complications in my life.

But now that I have had some time to take a few deep breaths, calm myself down and realize that I have enough time to think and figure this whole thing out - I can enjoy myself and actually be happy again.

 It was a few days ago when I was on vacation when I heard this song on the radio and although it is a break up song, it is one of the happiest break up songs I have ever heard. It has an upbeat tempo and the chorus is perfect to remind us when we need to be reminded that you can still be happy - even if something not so good happens that day, you can still enjoy it. Sure the example of still being happy even after a break up may not be as serious as the problems people are facing in their everyday life, but take Michael Bublé's advice and just enjoy the beautiful day. 

"It's A Beautiful Day"
Michael Bublé

I don't know why
You think that you could hold me
When you couldn't get by by yourself
And I don't know who
Would ever want to tear the seam of someone's dream
Baby, it's fine, you said that we should just be friends
Well, I came up with that line and I'm sure
That it's for the best
If you ever change your mind, don't hold your breath

'Cause you may not believe, mmm mmm mmm
That baby, I'm relieved, mmm
When you said goodbye, my whole world shined

Hey hey hey
It's a beautiful day and I can't stop myself from smiling
If we're drinking, then I'm buying
And I know there's no denying
It's a beautiful day, the sun is up, the music's playing
And even if it started raining
You won't hear this boy complaining
'Cause I'm glad that you're the one who got away
It's a beautiful day

It's my turn to fly, so girls, get in line
'Cause I'm easy, no playing this guy like a fool
Now I'm alright
Might've had me caged before, but not tonight

And you may not believe, mmm mmm
That baby, I'm relieved
This fire inside, it burns too bright
I don't want to say "so long," I just want to say "goodbye"

It's a beautiful day and I can't stop myself from smiling
If we're drinking, then I'm buying
And I know there's no denying
It's a beautiful day, the sun is up, the music's playing
And even if it started raining
You won't hear this boy complaining
'Cause I'm glad that you're the one who got away, mmm mmm

'Cause if you ever think I'll take up
My time with thinking of our break-up
Then you've got another thing coming your way
'Cause it's a beautiful day, mmm mmm
Beautiful day, oh, baby, any day that you're gone away
It's a beautiful day
