"Bad Day" is a pop song from Canadian singer Daniel Powter's self-titled debut studio album (2005). It was written by Powter and produced by Jeff Dawson and Mitchell Froom. Powter and Dawson recorded the song in 2002 but could not find a record label to release it at first. The song was first used in a French Coca-Cola television advertisement in Christmas 2004 before its official release. Tom Whalley, Warner Bros. Records' chairman and CEO, offered Powter a contract after hearing a demo tape of it. This track ended up being released as the lead single in Europe in early 2005.[lower-alpha 1]

Although "Bad Day" received mixed critical reviews, with some music critics finding a "universal appeal" and others claiming a lack of depth in its lyrics, it was a commercial success. In 2005, the single charted in the top five in more than ten countries worldwide, and became the most played song on European radio. After its European success, it was released in the United States where it topped Billboard's Hot 100, Pop 100, Adult Top 40, and Adult Contemporary charts. In 2006, it became the first song ever to sell two million digital copies in the United States. After another million were sold, it was certified three-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2009. It was certified platinum in Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, gold in Denmark and Germany, and also received a certification in France and Japan.

The accompanying music video for "Bad Day" was directed by Marc Webb and reached 9.8 million views in 2006. The video depicts two downcast people sharing a similar routine until they meet each other at the end of the video. The song was used for advertisements and television programs, most prominently as American Idol's elimination song. Different shows and artists covered and parodied "Bad Day", including Saturday Night Live and Alvin and the Chipmunks. Powter has also performed the song on television shows including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and during his concert tours in North America and Europe. The song's success made it Powter's "anthem" and would be included on his later compilation albums B-Sides (2007) and Best of Me (2010).

Background and writing

After leaving MacEwan University in Edmonton at 20, Powter moved to Vancouver, British Columbia where he played keyboards before he started composing songs.[1][2] In 1997, he partnered with music producer Jeff Dawson; they recorded "Bad Day" in 2002.[1] For two weeks,[3] Powter had a melody that "wouldn't go away" from his mind.[1] Thinking of a lyric that would fit the melody, he thought an "up and poppy" lyric would make it "the cheesiest song of all time".[3] He then thought "bad day" would be a good choice for the chorus,[1] and wrote the lyrics partly based on his life as "a struggling musician".[3] It was the last song to be composed for his album,[4] with Powter writing it in an hour during a ferry journey between Victoria and Vancouver.[5] Powter said it was not a lyrically elaborate song, but that: "mostly it's about phonics. It's about words that sing great. I was mumbling something, and those words came out."[3]

Dawson and Powter included the song on a disc that was offered to record labels that asked Powter to audition in New York; but his lack of stage presence led to the labels turning him down. Disappointed, he returned to Vancouver to move on because: "once a record company says no, it's difficult to come around again".[1] After this failure, his new representative, Gary Stamler, played a demo tape for Tom Whalley, chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Records.[1][6] Whalley offered Powter a contract but he was reluctant to sign it because he considered himself primarily a songwriter.[1] He accepted the offer in April 2003 and, along with Dawson and producer Mitchell Froom, worked on his album and the song in Los Angeles, California.[1] The album was originally recorded in Powter's Vancouver apartment but Warner Bros. asked that it be rerecorded.[2] However, because Froom wanted to keep its "original feel[ing]",[7] in Powter's words it was just "touch[ed] up".[2]

Composition

Bitching and griping about nothing. My granddad used to say to me, 'There's better people who are worse off than you,' and I always remember that. It's a song about trying to make people feel better. I'm making fun of you, but at the same time making fun of myself.
  Daniel Powter [8]

"Bad Day" is a "midtempo pop"[9] power ballad,[10][11][12] performed in a moderate groove and accompanied by a piano.[13][14] The song is composed in the key E♭ major, and uses syncopated 16th-note rhythms.[13] According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Warner Bros., Powter's vocals range from the note of E♭4 and D♭6.[15] Its instrumentation differs from "the scores of adolescent thrust-rockers" [16] and includes, as Powter referred to it, "aggressive" drums.[4] David Browne of Entertainment Weekly said it is: "addressed to anyone who's feeling depressed ... but [in contrast] its grand, panoramic arrangement wants to pump you up".[17] Simon Donohue of the Manchester Evening News commented its sound "seagues [sic] from boy band banality to Foo Fighters-style raucous rock".[18] According to Winston Kung of PopMatters, it is "in tune with the zeitgeist".[19]

The lyrics of "Bad Day" were said to have a universal appeal by Alan Connor of BBC News Magazine as they have an "everyman breeziness" because the song's subject can be any person going through a bad daytime.[20] Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic described it as: "a loping, sunny tune that pretty much has the opposite sentiment of its title".[9] Although About.com's Bill Lamb described its lyrics as having a "reassuring, comforting" tone,[21] Powter said the song "mak[es] fun of self-absorbed and narcissistic people who bitch and gripe".[7] He also affirmed: "It's not literally about having a bad day, it's more about not taking yourself too seriously and complaining about trivial things".[22]

Critical reception

The song received mixed reviews by commentators; some reviewers praised it for its composition, while other critics felt that the lyrics were not profound. Billboard's Chuck Taylor called the song "instantly memorable" and praised its instrumentation for being different "from the scores of adolescent thrust-rockers currently dominating the scene."[16] Dubbing it "elegant, timeless pop/rock",[16] Taylor qualified it as "one of the great discoveries of the year",[23] while Pete Waterman, writing for The Guardian in 2007, stated it was "one of [his] favourite songs of recent years".[24] Eric R. Danton from the Hartford Courant classified it as the best track on the album, while Erlewine called it "the template for the rest of his debut".[9][25] In contrast, Wilson Kung said the song "pales in comparison to some of the truly strong songs" on the album Daniel Powter.[19] Alan Connor of BBC News Magazine said it is a typical sentimental song but that in "Bad Day"'s case "there's even less detail".[20] He said the song "is so low on the specifics, there are some couplets that feel like they've been translated from a foreign language, possibly by a computer".[20] A writer for The Daily Edge called it "a song so sweet it gave you a toothache",[26] while a reviewer from The Scotsman called it a "horrible song".[27] Bill Lamb said it "feels genuine" but "if you are looking for depth, this is not your song",[28] Chris Lee of the Los Angeles Times said the song is "baleful but soulful",[29] and People commented: "'Bad Day' may be catchy enough to overcome its trite lyrics".[30]

Accolades

"Bad Day" won an award from the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada as one of six Canadian pop songs with the most radio airplay in 2005.[31] In 2006, it won the Tokio Hot 100 Award for Best Song,[32] and guaranteed Powter the Canadian Radio Music Award for Best New Group or Solo Artist—Mainstream AC.[33] In the following year, the song won a BMI Pop Award,[34] and shared the 2007 Japan Gold Disc Award for the most-downloaded international song with "You Raise Me Up" by Celtic Woman and "Dani California" by Red Hot Chili Peppers.[35] The song was nominated for Hot 100 Single of the Year at the 2006 Billboard Music Awards losing to Nelly Furtado's "Promiscuous".[36][37] At the APRA Music Awards of 2006, it was nominated for Most Performed Foreign Work but lost to Rob Thomas's "Lonely No More".[38][39] In 2007, it was nominated for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards but John Mayer's performance on "Waiting on the World to Change" won him the award.[40] It received a nomination for Best Song at the 2007 Kids' Choice Awards but lost to Beyoncé's "Irreplaceable".[41]

Music video

In this scene, the woman (Samaire Armstrong) is completing a heart on a billboard. In the past scenes, she was using a black marker to deface it with negativeness, while the man (Jason Adelman) used a red one to give it a positive tone.

The music video was directed by Marc Webb and premiered on Yahoo!'s website in early 2005.[lower-alpha 2] As of August 2005, it had been streamed over a million times.[77] It was released on VH1.com on April 28, 2005,[91] and at the iTunes Store for digital download on December 13, 2005.[92] It debuted on television channel VH1 on January 23 of the following year,[93] reaching the Top 20 Countdown for two weeks in March.[94][95] It was subsequently put on heavy rotation in April 2006, when it was played more than 50 times a week,[96] reduced to 30 weekly airings in May.[97] The video was the eighth most-watched music video on the Internet, with over 9.8 million views in 2006.[70] Warner Bros. Records released the video on YouTube on October 26, 2009.[98]

The music video accompanying "Bad Day" features a man (Jason Adelman) and a woman (Samaire Armstrong) going about their daily routines over a three-day period. Parts of the video are shown in split screen as they do exactly the same thing at different times, sometimes in the same location. The central point of the video occurs when they paint separately on the same billboard. Armstrong character shows her negativeness by adding rain and a car running through puddle of water while Adelman adds an umbrella and a man with a coat to protect the woman in the billboard. At some point, he draws half a heart and she completes it. At the end of the video, they finally meet when the man offers the woman an umbrella during a rain shower as a taxi cab stops for them. Throughout the video, Powter is shown playing a piano while wearing a tuque—a type of knitted hat.

Chuck Taylor said the video is "strikingly good" and "brings emotion and clarity to an artist that we are meeting for the first time".[23] The Daily Edge disagreed calling the video "drippy".[26] VH1 ranked it 17th on its Top 40 Videos of the Year in 2006.[99] It was nominated for the MuchMoreMusic Award at the 2006 MuchMusic Video Awards, but lost to Michael Bublé's "Save the Last Dance for Me".[100] It was nominated for Best Male Video at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards Japan,[101] but "Age Age Every Knight" by DJ Ozma was the winner.[102]

Usage in other media

"Bad Day" was much-used in the media to the point where Powter declared he felt "quite detached from th[e] song. It's more like it's everybody's song."[103] According to Alan Connor: "...turning off the radio isn't enough to escape the tune. It can be heard everywhere from in shops, on mobiles and especially on TV."[20] During Christmas 2004, the song was used in a Coca-Cola advertisement which played in France for two weeks.[77][104] It was also featured in a television advertisement for Right Guard deodorant in the United Kingdom.[20][24]

The fifth season of American Idol used "Bad Day" to underscore a montage of each contestant shown when they were eliminated.[66][78] Although it was not his decision to have it on the show,[105] Powter said: "I need every opportunity that I can to get the music out there".[20] "Bad Day" was subsequently used in other shows, including the Brazilian series Malhação in 2005,[106] and TV Asahi's 2006 Japanese drama Regatta: Kimi to Ita Eien.[107] It was featured in Veronica Mars episode "The Bitch Is Back" in 2007,[108] and in a 2012 episode of the German show Danni Lowinski.[109] In 2014, the song was used as a ringtone for Sherlock Holmes and Joan Watson in an episode of Elementary titled "The One Percent Solution".[110] A FX promotional trailer for Fargo featured a muzak version of "Bad Day".[111]

"Weird Al" Yankovic wanted to record a parody of the song in 2006 but Powter refused his proposal.[112] Later, Powter decided to give him permission to record the parody, which was to have been called "You Had a Bad Date", but was told by Yankovic told that "the train had left the station"; he had recorded "White & Nerdy" the day before instead.[112][113] In April 2006, "Bad Day" was parodied on an episode of the television series Saturday Night Live, featuring a montage of former member of the United States House of Representatives Tom DeLay.[3][114] The Daily Show used the song for an American Idol-based montage satirizing the June 2006 death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq.[115][116] It was parodied by comedy group Moron Life titled "Overplayed" and was released on MySpace in August 2006.[20][117] "Bad Day" was also covered by the fictional music group Alvin and the Chipmunks for their 2007 film Alvin and the Chipmunks.[10] Their version made the charts in January 2008, peaking at number 67 on the Billboard Hot 100.[118]

Live performances

Powter at the MTV Asia Awards 2006, where he performed the song live.

Powter performed "Bad Day" during the Live 8 concert in Berlin on July 2, 2005, at the Siegessäule.[77][119] He also performed the song at the MTV Asia Awards 2006 on May 6 at the Siam Paragon in Bangkok.[77][120] During the penultimate episode of American Idol on May 23, 2006, Powter performed "Bad Day" at the Kodak Theatre.[121][122] On May 26, 2007, he performed the song at the Saitama Super Arena during the MTV Video Music Awards Japan.[123] Powter performed it in a duo with Japanese singer Ayaka on November 26, 2008, at Astro Hall in Harajuku, Japan.[124]

Powter has performed the song on several television shows,[14] including CD USA[125] in February 2006,[lower-alpha 3] and Total Request Live on April 6, 2006.[77] On April 14, he sang it during the The Today Show at the Rockfeller Center in the morning,[2] and, at night, on the Late Night with Conan O'Brien.[127] He sang it on Live with Regis and Kelly on April 18,[128] on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on April 24 and, on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on April 27.[129] He performed again on Leno's and DeGeneres's shows on June 1[130] and on July 7[131] respectively, and appeared on The CBS Early Show to sing it on August 9.[4]

The song was included on the set lists for Powter's European tour,[77] in the United Kingdom,[132] and in the United States to promote its parent album.[133] In a performance in Chicago's Park West venue during the American tour, Andy Downing of the Chicago Tribune called the song "a high point" of the show, and said the slower version was prettier than the original record but that it was "the spartan arrangement" that saved it from "montage hell.[115]
