Creating a “Best Day of My Life” outlook with American Authors
After an unusually wet September, the East Coast is finally seeing some warm sunshine. Fall colors adorn trees and a good vibe fills the air. Celebration literally vibrates through the air! Infused with that celebration, the Grounded Relating Monday Music selection today suggests we all do one better: heed the call from the song ”Best Day of My Life.”
A recently popular song from the high-energy group, American Authors, the “Best Day of My Life” song offers an energetic reminder to celebrate all that is in life, the extremes, the duality, the good and the bad. And this version is especially “special” as it is videoed from the perspective of a bulldog, who finally gets his forever home. A new perspective is always informing. And, of course, the archetypal template of a dog’s unconditional love and in-the-moment attitude is yet another great reminder to be in the NOW.
Heed the call of your soul and have the best day of your life
Sometimes Nike is right and you Just Do It. And that’s another simple message or reminder of this American Authors’ song:
I hear it calling outside my window
I feel it in my soul (soul)
The stars were burning so bright
The sun was out ’til midnight
I say we lose control (control)This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife

Full lyrics for “Best Day of My Life” as posted on metrolyrics.com:
I had a dream so big and loud
I jumped so high I touched the clouds
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh
I stretched my hands out to the sky
We danced with monsters through the night
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh
I’m never gonna look back
Woah, never gonna give it up
No, please don’t wake me now
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
I howled at the moon with friends
And then the sun came crashing in
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh
But all the possibilities
No limits just epiphanies
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh
I’m never gonna look back
Woah, never gonna give it up
No, just don’t wake me now
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
I hear it calling outside my window
I feel it in my soul (soul)
The stars were burning so bright
The sun was out ’til midnight
I say we lose control (control)
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
This is gonna be, this is gonna be, this is gonna be
The best day of my life
Everything is looking up, everybody up now
This is gonna be the best day of my life
My li-i-i-i-i-ife
