[IdolMe]

I'm not sure I have seen this posted yet but I have had a few people ask me about the song that gets played when someone is voted off. If you would like to play it for free... go here (http://myspace.com/idolme) - and make sure your speakers are turned on.

"so you had a bad day"

Actually the song is called "Bad Day" and it's by Daniel Powter.

Where is the moment we need at the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't knowYou tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad dayYou're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't knowYou tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

(yeah...)

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and IYou kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't knowYou tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad dayYou've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day.........

well I was, but that song has been played to death in the UK along with 'you're beautiful' by james blunt, to the extent that most of us are thoroughly sick of both of them now...

Is this the one sung by Jon Bon Jovi??? Maybe Bon Jovi's song is "Have a good day". Either way, great songs!!!

You seem to know a lot about songs.....I heard a song today.....loved it but don't know the title or artist.

Goes something like this..... ...,...,..., Just another day without you.. ..,..,,.. Just another day without you... ..,..,..., Just another day without you.

I think it is a current song.

wow. it just came out here awhile ago. you guys get new music earlier than us.

[laraine]

really? wow, I thought everything came out there earlier. I know most films do, I thought music was the same.

[marcussba]

Does anyone know the name of the other song they use frequently where the contestants all dance at the end? The lyrics go something like "Clap now everybody clap your hands".

NM finally found it "Hand Clapping Song" by The Meters

[Skate]

If I like a song, I can never get bored of it. Haha.

So yeah, both songs are still on my playlist now.

I had to buy Daniel Powter Cd for my son because he just loves the song So you Had A Bad day! Now that he knows he can see the video on the computer he will go nuts.....lol
