I always prefer the demos... the guys sound so much better when they just play their songs and we get to hear them raw...none of this overproduced garbage - which, imo, is one of the biggest problems with the post-2000 albums.

HAND demo is definitely better than the album version.

I like the guitar solo and lyrics better from the album version, but they definately should have kept the acoustic part from the demo. Also I like the little guitar bit just before the 2nd chorus (even if it does sound exactly the same as the intro of U2's Veritgo).

Oh and I like the lyrics "standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly".

HAVE A NICE DAY - ORIGINAL 2004 VERSION - LYRICS
Chorus in bold

Why you wanna tell me how to live my life?
And who are you to tell me if it's black or white?
Mama can you help me try to understand,
is innocence the difference 'tween a boy and a man?
My daddy live to die that's just the price that he paid
sacrificed his life just slaving away

Oh if there's one thing I could give you
To get you through the night
Oh a little something to hang on to
To make you feel alive
Brighter than a diamond
Sharper than a knife
Standing on the ledge
It might save your live
If there's one thing I could say

Have a nice day
Have a nice day


Living in a broken home of hopes and dreams,
take a look around you nothing's what it seems.
Who are you to tell me where the flower grows?
Who are you to tell me that the child don't know?
Innocence has died out on a dead end street
Looking for forgiveness, he's down on his knees.

Oh if there's one thing I could give you
to get you through the night
Oh a little something to hang on to
to make you feel alive
Brighter than a diamond
Sharper than a knife
Standing on the ledge
It might save your live
If there's one thing I could say

Have a nice day
Have a nice day
Have a nice day
Have a nice day


Guitar solo


~~~Acoustic Section~~~
Oh if there's one thing I could give you
to get you through the night
Oh, a little something to hang on to
to make you feel alive....


Oh if there's one thing I could give you
To get you through the night
Oh a little something to hang on to
To make you feel alive
Brighter than a diamond
Sharper than a knife
Standing on the ledge
It might save your live
If there's one thing I would say

Have a nice day
Have a nice day
Have a nice day
Have a nice day!

This.
The demo version's arrangement is killer.

I like the fact the demo sounds harder, and obviously the slowed down bit too. I would have preferred them sticking to this version really.
