Song Review: Amber Hayes, “Any Day Is A Good Day”

Amber Hayes, Any Day Is A Good DayAny Day Is A Good Day” is the new inspirational single from country newcomer Amber Hayes. The song also serves as the title track of her album that was released this October. Amber’s sweet, country voice entices you and paints a beautiful picture of living the old adage “every day above ground is a good day.”

The first verse expands on just that: “I’ve got a roof above my head, shoes on my feet. Got air in my lungs, groceries in the pantry/So I’d have to say, it’s a good day.”

Sweet, simple and inspiring.

The second verse touches on enjoying the simple beauties in life as Amber describes taking a walk and listening to blue birds. You can almost picture her walking through a brightly lit, “American Honey”-esque cornfield, smiling and enjoying nature’s beauty.
