Lovely Day - Bill Withers



Driving into town yesterday, Bill Withers' Lovely Day was playing on the radio. I was in a rush and thinking about my busy day ahead; that stress all melted away after hearing just a few bars. Simply by describing everyday life and seeing how wonderful even the simplest things are, these lyrics have the ability to instantly make things feel better in Withers' typically understated style.

While watching the news on tv last night, I saw a story about a flashmob in a London tube carriage that was actually an orchestrated marriage proposal. What did the choir sing? Lovely Day - a great choice and of course she said yes!
