整首歌讲述了一个在他死去的最后一天。如何面对生活中的点点滴滴，很多如意与不如意，都在微笑中度过。就这样的一天，成为了他最后的一天，也是他最美好的一天。

这是从另一个角度看待人的死去，也是告诉人如何度过每一天，因为没有人知道死亡会以何种形式降临，所以为了让这一天成为最美好的一天，只能更加珍惜每一天。


Drag myself from my bed

Around 20 past 6

And as i sit down i look up
我坐下，仰头一瞧
And your standing in the doorway sun at your back
见到站在门口，背对阳光的你
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
跑得大衣飞扬，努力不错过这一班车
But the drivers waiting and that’s strange

Kids on the top deck quiet for a change
也没听到巴士二楼的顽童们在吵闹
And there’s no rain and no roadworks In the bus lane
巴士道上既没下雨也没施工
and all my hurts run away

And i’m smiling as i’m punching in

And in the park at lunch

There’s no whinos on my favorite bench

None of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
免了连篇的醉话和熏天的尿骚味
And the scrawny little pigeons with the gammy legs
那群弓脚的瘦鸽子
Decide to dive bomb from someone else’s sandwich instead
决定轰别人的三文治
And there’s something about the city today
今天的城市有种说不上的什么
Like all the colors conspire to overwhelm the grey
就象所有的色彩联合企图吞压灰暗
And this close to the fire i can feel no cold
离火边如此近的我感觉不到丝毫的寒冷
Put a rainbow halo around my soul

＊The day i died was the best day of my life
一段重复

So i leave work get to the high street and i miss my bus
Should i wait for another no i cant be arsed
I begin to walk
And rush hour crowd seem to part like the red sea
And i’m stopping at the offy
20 cigarettes and a 6 pack to relax me
And as i cross back over the street
I guess i never saw that taxi

＊The day i died was the best day of my life

Just Jack的最新单曲。JUST JACK曲风兼顾车库朋克和流行风格，他的第三张专辑《All Night Cinema》收录了很多故事题材的作品。比如这首"The Day I Died"就讲述了一个乐观，很容易满足的男人如何接受自己的卒终。他的歌，民谣、说唱、摇滚、舞曲、独立，随性发挥，很有意思。

确实很好听啊   谢谢楼主分享！！！！！
