The phrase "go ahead, make my day" was written by Charles B. Pierce, an independent filmmaker who is credited with "story by" in the film Sudden Impact. The actual origins of the phrase came from Pierce's father Mack, who used to tell him as a child, "Just let me come home one more day, without you mowing that lawn, son just go ahead.....make my day".
In the beginning of the movie, Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) goes into a diner for a morning cup of coffee where he discovers a robbery in progress. He kills all but one of the robbers in a shootout. However, the surviving robber grabs the fleeing waitress Loretta (Mara Corday), holds his gun to her head, and threatens to shoot. Instead of backing off, Harry points his .44 Magnum revolver into the boy's face and dares him to shoot, saying with clenched teeth and in his characteristic rough grumble, "Go ahead, make my day," meaning that if the robber attempts to harm Loretta in any way, Harry would be happy to dispatch the robber. At the end of the film, Harry, again, says "Come on, make my day" just before shooting Mick the Rapist, who aims his stolen shotgun at Jennifer Spencer.
"Make My Day" is a pop song by Japanese recording artist Yui Aragaki. It was released as her first single on July 16, 2008.
Background and composition
"Make My Day" is a pop-rock song written and produced by Japanese singer-songwriter Keito Blow. It was released in three limited editions: edition A, which has an illustration cover drawn by Aragaki herself, edition B, which comes with a DVD including three live performances and edition C, which comes with a DVD including three music videos and off-shot footage.
Aragaki gave Blow a list of themes she wanted her music to reflect and Blow used it as inspiration to write the song, as well as the b-side "I Believe". The second b-side, "Soba ni", was written by Aragaki herself and talks about the many things one can notice in a Shibuya crowd.
"Make My Day" debuted on the daily Oricon singles chart at #1 with 11,499 copies sold. It peaked at #2 on the weekly charts with 53,471 copies sold. The song debuted at #1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100 chart "Make My Day" was the 12th best selling single for the month of July and 88th best selling single of the year.
