Beautiful Day

3 Colours Red

About Beautiful Day

"Beautiful Day" was the first single from 3 Colours Red's second album, Revolt. It was released on Creation Records in 1999. The song was written by frontman/bassist Pete Vuckovic and recorded at Westside Studios in London. It surprised many, showing a more sensitive and epic side to the band's previously punk/pop-dominated sound (although their debut album featured 'Fit Boy and Faint Girl' and 'Copper Girl' which were both in a similar vein). It went on to become the band's biggest commercial hit, reaching number 11 in the UK charts in January 1999, throwing them further into the media spotlight at a time when the talk surrounding the band was of them being dropped. It also paved the way for the band's American campaign where the song received considerable radio airplay, even entering the charts. The band toured the US with Silverchair, and Vuckovic subsequently did an acoustic promotional tour of radio stations on the back of the song's success. It was later perhaps incorrectly and naively blamed for splitting the band up, having allegedly distanced Vuckovic from his bandmates and fuelled a creative power struggle between him and his co-writer, Chris McCormack. However, the band reformed three years later and went on to play the song at every gig. The video for the song can be found on youtube.com where it has currently enjoyed 6 times as many 'hits' as anything else the band recorded or released, and played a massive part in procuring the band the opening slot at Wembley Stadium in 1999 (opening for Aerosmith).

Things you forget to say 
Will haunt you 
Down here a million days 
I know you'll get me through 
You don't need to stay 
Because I'll never be alone 
Do you cry anymore? 

Refrain 

You're in the never-ending 
Bitter and converscending blue 
I just want to be by you 
And everything will turn to blue 
The dream is fallacy come true 
Just want to spend some time with you 
On a beautiful day... 

Seeing the morning in 
Forget to 
Worry abaout the things 
That hurt you 
You'll becoming dependent now 
Is it could where you are too? 
Freeze no more 

Refrain 

We got it os throw it away 
'cause we will be as lucky as the 
Last time, child 
The habits don't blow it away 
We are on the other side 
You know you're 
Talking about the old times 
Walking down an open road 
But failing to disguise 
Revealing the signs 
Nothing you can do will change it 
It's a beautiful day... 
Ooooh
