Lyrics
Monday finds you like a bomb
That's been left ticking there too long
You're bleeding
Some days there's nothing left to learn
From the point of no return
You're leaving
Hey Hey I saved the world today
Everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay
There's a million mouths to feed
And I've got everything I need
I'm breathing
And there's a hurting thing inside
But I've got everything to hide
I'm grieving
Hey Hey I saved the world today
Everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay
Let it stay
Let it stay
Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo the good thing
Hey Hey I saved the world today
Everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay
Hey Hey I saved the world today (Everybody's happy now)
Everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away (Everybody's happy now)
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it, oh let it

I have never heard this song in my entire life until last month, when I've heard this by accident only three times... Now I'm listening this everyday... 1. On my 25th birthday, I wanted to visit my beloved Grandpa. He was suffering from cancer but minutes before I came to His house, He had lost consciousness and was taken to hospital. During waiting for any information about Him, this song started to play from speaker in hospital's waiting room. I've never heard this before, but its mellow sound gave me chills and weird, calming vibe with hope, that everything will be fine... 2. One week later we were sitting with Grandpa in hospital and we both knew, that he'll pass away in next few days. When I was leaving the hospital, I've started an engine in car, turned on the radio and this song filled the air. 3. Two days ago, right before His funeral, I've heard this song from a car parked in front of cementery's gate. There was nobody inside, only music. Thank you, Eurythmics, for creating such a masterpiece filled with emotions. R.I.P. Grandpa, wait for me, wherever you are now...

[@ArthurVilaNova-zl3zj]

it happens to me i discover this song two months ago, listening Antena um radio, they made in 01-1999, Fantástico.

[@manuels9747]

Hubert, probably your grandpa was a very good person. This was not a coincidence: It was causality. In Spanish we say "casualidad" (coincidence) and "causalidad" (causality). God and/or the Universe were sending a message. And you received it. For sure, Grandpa is waiting for you, and HE IS smiling while your are reading this post. Take care, God bless You.

I absolutely love the way the Sopranos used this song. The whole episode centers around Tony making decisions to repair relationships, he continually does what he thnks should be all the right things. Wants to commit to his wife, looks after Irina, makes peace with Junior, makes a gift to Beansie, helps Janice. In the end he's just sitting there alone, feeling like complete shit. Because ultimately subconsciously he knows that all the things that are wrong with his life are rooted much deeper and can't be resolved by doing a couple of favors.

When the profoundly menacing Richie met his sudden end, I was flooded by feelings relief, even joy. The music really intensified the experience tremendously, and I loved it instantly. This is such a great example of how music and drama each have the ability to broaden and strengthen each other.

[@colomboharrison]

[@meli-r]

I would like to share my interpretation about this beautiful, underrated song. For me it's about a very deep depression, about a person who feels so empty inside that he can't find pleasure in anything he does, even though he has "everything he needs" as the song says. I think "I saved the world today" means that this person made it for another day, is breathing, but still feels indifference towards the world and the people around him.

[@starther]

I feel the same- thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@scottdelong1]

Great interpretation. I had the same feeling but you articulated it.

[@larryanthony3554]

Totally agree with your depression analysis but my twist to "I saved the world today" is the person has died and from their point of view has saved the world today for others as nobody has to suffer from their negativity and unhappiness anymore .

[@vincentjones9215]

Hmm? You would have to be my age, 63, to recall the impact MTV had on America, "sweet dreams" heavy in rotation, the trans vibe, what I hear is a person very wealthy, perhaps faced with the guilt enormous, quick wealth brings some, wanting to "change the world", yet as they grow older, realizing to change the world, it can only occur by being kind and loving to each person you deal with in daily life, I guess my point is changing the world would begin one person at a time

La canción “Salvemos al mundo hoy” es el título en español de “I Saved the World Today”, un tema del dúo británico Eurythmics, compuesto por Annie Lennox y Dave Stewart. La canción trata sobre la sensación de alivio y satisfacción que se siente al resolver un problema o evitar un conflicto, aunque sea temporalmente. La letra sugiere que el narrador ha logrado “salvar el mundo” de alguna manera, y que todos están felices por ello. Sin embargo, también hay una nota de ironía y sarcasmo, ya que el narrador reconoce que hay muchos problemas sin resolver en el mundo, y que su acción no ha cambiado realmente nada. La canción podría interpretarse como una crítica a la complacencia y el egoísmo de la sociedad moderna, que se conforma con soluciones superficiales y no se preocupa por las causas profundas de los males globales. La canción tuvo una buena acogida por parte de la crítica y el público, y fue considerada como un regreso triunfal de Eurythmics después de una década de inactividad. La canción también fue utilizada como tema principal de la película The Bone Collector, protagonizada por Denzel Washington y Angelina Jolie. Además, la canción fue versionada por varios artistas, como Joe Cocker, Tina Arena y The Corrs.

+Jacek M Maybe . And Bond Producers were very wrong not to notice. We should forward to them. It would be a great tribute to Annie and something very original to take a song created many years ago and use it for a new movie. What else than save the world that day makes Bond?Just daydreaming!! But it would be great if we could even intervene in some detail of the production of this great movie that I love and make to Annie a tribute.

rumour has it that this was written to be a bond song but the producers thought it too dark to use and decided not to use it, you can imagine if you listen closely to the words why that is. Personally I think this would have been an awesome intro to a bond movie.

[@gemasboy]

Yes agreed!!!

[@margaretlawson6960]

What a lovely song.

Это песня актуальна как никогда.

[@Sargon288]

Funny thing how we connect events in our life with songs we listen at a particular time. Whenever I hear this song I remember when I was a little boy running from my home country because of war, listening to this song on the radio, not knowing where we gonna end up, feeling sad and at the same time, strangely, excited about it.

[@pauladamson8577]

I you have found peace and happiness!

Adele, Mariah, Celine but in the end it's Annie!

[@Arbadee.PayZaLee]

Annie has an incredible voice

[@_LilacRoses]

This song came out when I was 9, it was always on the radio and is one of the songs of my innocent childhood. A few years later things would go downhill, family fell apart. This song is the last memory of the good.

[@jmo0508]

Who remembered this genius song after Annie Lennox's performance at Global Citizen April 2020? (And is crying and listening to it non-stop)

[@vojtaondrejsmolik819]

Exactly that!

[@alejandramontesdeoca5691]

Jamás había visto un vídeo en KZbin sin un solo dislike... Amo esta canción amo la voz de Annie... Una canción que me brinda mucha paz y un éxtasis incomparable

[@ManuAnderson]

Eso es porque recientemente KZbin ha desactivado los dislikes públicos. Solo se ven los likes. Fíjate en cualquier otro vídeo y verás como es así.

[@redw645]

Aun los puedes ver, creo con un programa o atraves de Chrome.

[@normanniwagaba8662]
