Lagu Blink - Happy Day

blink - happy day


Bukan, saya bukan ngomongin tentang hari yang indah atau ngomongin serial jadul yang pernah ditayangin di Amrik sana. Happy Day adalah sebuah lagu yang udah saya cari-cari selama kira-kira 15 tahun lebih. Lagu ini adalah lagunya Blink. Bukan Blink 182 lohh. Blink ini adalah sebuah band dari Irlandia. 


Ada sebuah kisah yang cukup menarik tentang Blink dan Blink 182 ini. Sebelum Mark, Tom, Scott (drummer Blink 182 sebelum Travis) menggunakan nama Blink 182, mereka menggunakan nama Blink (aja/doang). Terus akhirnya ketiga orang itu diprotes oleh Blink yang dari Irlandia ini karena nama band mereka sama, dan mereka sudah menggunakannya terlebih dahulu. Akhirnya ditambahin deh tu 182, yang sekarang malah jadi lebih terkenal.

Happy Day

The streets were bright and the doors were all open
In this little place that we passed through,
You had your head turned away, but I knew,
You were smiling 'cos you always do.
Carrot cake in the afternoon,
And the sun in gleaming through the cream on the spoon,
Just me and you and you and me,
In a little mad hat
Down by the sea.

You thought the birds that flew above were stars,
But they were only birds.
Stars don't fly in the day,
Not where I come from anyway.
Just me and you and you and me
And you and me and a cacophony of angels,
All taking turns at singing tunes,
With those little mad wings
In the afternoon.

And we held hands,
And looked at the sea,
And the sea was our friend,
So was everything.
I'd like to freeze that moment in time
And wrap it up in tinfoil,
With little ribbons and tinsel and say,
"That was a happy day".

A living colour came from under a rock and said,
"Could you kindly remove that mad hat?
I'm trying to get some sleep down here",
So you did,
Disney, hey.
Now I've seen it all,
Now I've seen it all,
Now I've seen it all,
That was a happy day.
A happy day.

I'll try, I'll try, I'll try,
That was a happy day.
A happy day.
Happy day,
Happy day,
Day.
That was a happy day



Lagunya sederhana banget, cuma pake dua chord aja...tapi lagunya ceriaaaaa banget.


Dan semenjak pertama kali dengar lagu itu pas masih SMP, lagunya masih terngiang-ngiang di kepala sampai sekarang. Beruntunglah ada seorang blogger di www.condemnedtorocknroll.blogspot.com yang berbaik hati kirim lagu itu ke saya.

Thank You Larissa...whoever you are
