Just Jack-The Day I Died
lyrics:
Drag myself from my bed Around 20 past 6
Get my kids up make breakfast 1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix
And as I sit down I look up
And your standing in the doorway sun at your back
in my old brown dressing gown
Well no one can love you more than I love you now
but I gotta go running for the bus
Coat flying and i try not to miss it this time
But the drivers waiting and that's strange
Kids on the top deck quiet for a change
And theres no rain and no roadworks in the
Bus lane and all my hurts run away
And im smiling as I'm punching in
The day I died was the best day of my life
The day I died was the best day of my life
Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
The day I died was the best day of my life
Now the secretaries they got a smile for me
and the in tray on my desks almost empty
I get a memo from executive joe
saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out
for embezzling funds from the company account
and i'd be lying if i said i wasn't chuffed
cos i always hated rob
and now they'll probably offer me robs old job
And in the park at lunch
Theres no whinos on my favorite bench
none of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
and the 20 little pigeons with the gammy leg
decide to dine from someone elses sandwich instead
and there's something about the city today
like all the colours conspire to overwhelm the grey
and this close to the fire I can feel no cold
but a rainbow halo around my soul
The day I died was the best day of my life
The day I died was the best day of my life
Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
The day I died was the best day of my life
So I leave work get to the high street and i miss my bus
Should i wait for another no I can't be arsed
I begin to walk and rush hour crowd seem to part
Like the red sea, and im stopping at the offy
20 cigerettes and a 6 pack to relax me
And as I cross back over the street
I guess i never saw that taxi
I guess I never saw that taxi
The day I died was the best day of my life
The day I died was the best day of my life
Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
The day I died was the best day of my life
Now I got 99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
I got 99 red balloons drifting past my dreamy eyes
I got 99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
I got 99 red balloons drifting past my dying eyes

本名Jack Allsopp的Just Jack,
没有帅气的外表与华丽的包装,
看起来真的很路人,
但他其实拥有显赫的经历,
从小就是知名的霹雳舞舞者,
更是游走在各舞厅的名DJ。
一开始因为歌名很特别,
我才会在youtube点开这首歌,
以为会是首悲情沉闷的歌,
没想到还挺轻快活泼的。

一开始听到的是这个版本,
Just Jack和乐团出现在公园,
轻便的装扮搭配简单的乐器,
就开始了他们的表演。
我很喜欢这样的风格,
不需要复杂的编曲或是强烈的混音,
简单的编曲 生活化的歌词,
像Plain White T's或是Jason Mraz的音乐,
轻易的就能打动市井小民的心。
虽然离the day I died应该有段距离,
我还是将喜欢的音乐分享给大家。
