My interpretation is it's kind of a farewell, like at the end of a good show the audience applauds, the entire day in the video appears to be a flashback over parts of his life, he is wearing his ruined jacket and has blood on his head throughout. It's not reality, the people are applauding to say, well done, good life, goodbye, almost applauding the end of his performance. :)
Just to explain, from what ive read/heard about the video, The video explains what the character wishes the day he died was like. Sort of like a "If i could have done things differently scenario". The torn jacket and blood on the characters head throughout the video are indicators as to what is going to happen, even though everyone is oblivious to it.
In my perspective I think it's showing him in a sort of heaven (because he is dead), where the things which would usually annoy him on a day to day basis are no longer occuring.
Because its sorta like a recap of how his day went..Showing you what happened the day he died..how good it was..as if his life flashed before his eyes if you will..thats what i get from it anyway
i just realized that the one who is clapping at the end with sling bag , is the guitarist and the one in the last part is the one who sing this song (just jack)
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IS HE SUPPOSED TO WAKE UP AS IF HE'D ALREADY HAD THE ACCIDENT?!?! The torn left sleeve on his jacket's showing that it's just inevitable?
i hrd it on radio n was impressed wid d music..it was kinda happy n i thot he used tht line only figuratively..bt wen he sang d end i felt so bad...n was thinking y d singer had sucha a happy rhythm....i think perhaps his death was inevitable ..so heavens jst decided to give him his best day ever b4 he dies...right 4m rediscovering his love 4 his wife to his promotion ..evrything was perfect......or perhaps singer dint thot ol this n jst caught a catchy line with such irony ... gr8 song anyway..
the day i died was the best day of my life tell my friends my kids and my wife that everything will be alright the day i died was the best day of my life .......(8)
i heard this song and didnt understand it at first but... when you watch the video and think about the message its sending you'll fully understand. but for the people who cant quite understand it yet this songs message is to enjoy the little things that make your day happy because you never know when your end will be...
Clearly not understood. He sings about the day that he died, and how it was the best day he's had, and that he died on that day (which was the besdt day he had)
I think it's like.. as though he was looking back on it. Like a flash back as he died, he looked back through his day and realised how amazing everything was .. I think.
Usually songs about death deal with regret and stuff. This is the first song I've heard that kinda celebrates death and all the achievements done in ones life.
wot i get from it is he's reliving his last, perfect day. at the end when there clapping its like u do at the start of a concert or play, to welcome on the performer
My favourite (that's how we spell it in Singapore) song :] But when I searched the lyrics to learn to sing it, there's this last few lines that go something like [99 red balloons past my dying eyes] Where did THAT come from?
