Originally known as "My Best Friends Are Gone", producer [[Ric Ocasek]] was said to have been a fan of the song, saying he thought it would make a great single.  "Brightening Day" has a somewhat dryer sound than most of the rest of the songs from the sessions, and is also notable for having a somehat varied guitar solo -rather than the usual ''Green''-era mirroring of the melody.
