Default Have a nice day - old version

I think the version of Have a nice day from the American Music Awards sounds a hell of a lot better than the new version. After seeing that video again I think the old version of the song would have been a much bigger hit than the retooled version. Huge mistake! Anyone agree?

I disagree. The song wasn't all that different for it to be a much bigger hit. I don't think it was a huge mistake at all. It'd of had the same success.

Actually I think the old version was better too. I loved the old chorus but hated the solo from the old version. I really love how they had a part where they were singing the chorus all slowed down. It's really cool!

I think the chorus in the new version flows a lot better. The double "ohs" from the original version seemed too much like living on a prayer to me.

I prefer the new version. Although it was interesting to hear the 1st version w/ different lyrics and I especially liked the acoustic part after the solo.
