Hey, lads!
Today's song is Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life from Monty Python's movie Life of Brian.
Eric Idle's eternal anthem to mortality. What else can I say? This song speaks for itself! A stroke of genius. Timeless. For the vast majority of people - forget the mourning and celebrate life!
This is oddly comforting, always cheers me up, even in the shittiest moments.
The other day, I was having an excepcionaly bad time, I listened to a load of songs, and felt a little better. But after listening to this, just couldn't stop smiling! I'm telling you, no better cure for depression - no matter what doctors tell you LOL (this song should be mandatory for all those Emo kids!)
Oh, btw, I absolutely love the "subtle" line: Life's a piece of shit when you look at it! Most epic lyric evaaar ROFL And come on, gotta love their accent!
Monty Phyton/Eric Idle: Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life
Some things in life are bad they can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you've chewing an life's gristle
Don't grumble give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the light side of life
If life seems jolly rotten there's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you've feeling in the dumps don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle, that's the thing
And always look on the bright side of life
Come on!
Always look on the bright side of life
For life is quite absurd and death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin give the audience a grin
Enjoy it it's your last chance anyhow.
So always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath
Life's a pice if shit when you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true
You'll see it's all a show
Keep'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you
And always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life
(Come on guys, cheer up)
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life ....
P.S: What if you can't whistle? (like me) Well, you can always hum! Look at the bright side of it!
