My Day Is Coming: Difference between revisions

"My Day is Coming" was written by [[Weezer]] lead singer [[Rivers Cuomo]] in [[2006]]. The song was demoed, along with "[[Heart Songs]]", in a Japanese mega-mall recording studio while Cuomo was on honeymoon in Japan.  It is an ode to the U.S. men's soccer team. Cuomo had wanted to go to the 2006 FIFA World Cup, and called the U.S. Soccer Federation to ask them for tickets. They gave him the tickets but asked him to write an anthem for the U.S. men's national team. Cuomo didn't have time to follow through with the request until after the team had lost in the first round. Depressed after the team's poor performance in the World Cup, Cuomo ended up writing a song filled more with despair than triumph.
