WeddingDom Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 The whooah's in this song are their best since Viva la Vida (song), imo. I can feel the passion and energy everytime and I'll pour all my energy and soul during the live performance of this song :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesTheMarshmallow Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I really love the album version but it's sad that the piano is on a backing track live...I feel like it has less character that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickulus Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 A few days ago, I went outside at about 2pm and the weather was just so perfect and everything felt amazing. So I played Amazing Day through my earphones. It was AMAZING. It's hard to describe, but I hadn't felt that kind of pure happiness in a long time. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentleparachute Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 ^ That's what I've felt with this song!!! When I first heard it during GCF, it felt flat and underwhelming, but after persisting with it for awhile and then eventually having it seep into my psyche, I can honestly say that this song brings out such beautiful sentiment and emotion... There's a very deep-seated calmness and sense of gratitude in there that feels more profound than any of their previous songs. Hearing it, and singing along to it brings out a deep joy that feels a bit like the 'Everglow' that Chris sings about in that song 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisbe Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I think it felt underwhelming because it was played after ASFOS. It was such a change of mood when we didn't know the song and we didn't know how to react. Now, after listening to it with the album and as a separated track it feels differently. I love this song. It brings me so much happiness, hope and peace. it's definitely one of my favorites from the album along with everglow :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 It's hard to describe, but I hadn't felt that kind of pure happiness in a long time. Those moments are the best, those you cant describe but that we intuitively know exactly what they are :) This song has such a feeling of resting in one´s self, truly the feeling of reaching the goal of a very long journey and finally being able to breathe out and enjoy the amazing feeling! :) its so happy and joyful but in a very peaceful restful way :) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I was listening to the album version and I heard a strange "noise" at about 1:00. The best way I can describe it is as a sound from ... a squeeze horn :) (had to google this one to find an English translation). I couldn't find it elsewhere in the song. So weird.

Nie Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Well I know Jonny can produce a lot of sounds on his guitar but this one beats it. :D It was the first time I was listening to the album version with earphones in ( I prefer the live version). Now I'm really focussed on that noise. Even heard it when playing it on the cd player in my car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp3176 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I was listening to the album version and I heard a strange "noise" at about 1:00. The best way I can describe it is as a sound from ... a squeeze horn :) (had to google this one to find an English translation). I couldn't find it elsewhere in the song. So weird. I can definetely hear what you mean. At first I was like "I never heard anything at 1:00!" But I think you specifically meant more around 1:02. The sound happens right after the guitar came in, at 1:01. Then, at 1:02, you can hear that squeeze horn noise... that's certainly weird, since I don't hear it anywhere else around the song either. This noise is different from the effects on the guitar in the intro of the song, they sound squaky and get more rich as the intro progresses, however this is a different noise completely for sure. It kind of has the same feel to it, the squaky and non-rich feeling, however if you take a close listen to them both they sound quite different to what they actually are, at least to my ears anyway :) Since the first one is a guitar clearly with effects, and the second one as you said sounds more like a squeeze horn. My best guess as to what this is is that it's not actually a real squeeze horn; it's just more effects on the guitar. These effects are done slightly differnetly from the effects on the guitar at the beginning, however it's still an effect on the guitar and it makes it sound like something differeent. Not completely different, as it still sounds like guitar a little bit. It possibly could be the exact same effect on the guitar, just applied on a higher note, and is buried under all of the other layers. But that's just my thinking, you could have your own opinion, and it possibly can be something completely different from what we all think it may have been. Or it may be the same effect used in the intro, but just on a high note, we don't know for sure. We're just guessing, and using what we know to try to figure out what it actually is. :) I think I'll settle on the "same effect, higher note" theory. As I've said before it has the same squeaky, non-rich, cleaning feel to is as the opening guitar intro did, however this sounds a lot more like a squeeze horn which would produce a higher note than the ones played in the beginning. So that's what I think it is. The same effect, applied on a really high note on the guitar, to make it sound sort of like that. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nie Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I don't play the guitar so I don't have a clue. I was just describing that sound that I was hearing and it is indeed just after 1:00". LOL, now I can't get that silly picture out of my head of Jonny playing guitar and Chris pressing that squeeze horn :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nie Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Btw, I have generated an OOPS version of the song, in order to see if that would make me wiser. Not. :) I've done all the songs on AHFOD, they are in the OOPS thread in MM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentleparachute Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I think that is a guitar effect.... You can get a similar effect pulling a bow across violin / other string instruments... I discovered that it makes for a very effective airplane landing sound :D Done in a more controlled manner and a bit more know-how, I think that will give you that "squeeze horn" effect - Probably with a metal side or something like that 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maaria Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 does some one have this effect on an electrical form or can it be found in youtube? I`d like to hear if that is familiar to me. I have only two used cd`s of this band and there`s no Amazing Day in them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
