The Life Is Good Company is a New England–based apparel and accessories wholesaler, retailer, and lifestyle brand founded in 1994 and best known for its optimisticT-shirts and hats, many of which feature a smiling stick figure named Jake and the registered trademark "Life is good."
History
In 1989 brothers Bert and John Jacobs designed their first T-shirts. They began selling their designs in the streets of Boston and out of an old van at colleges and street fairs along the East Coast of the United States. In 1994, following a not-so-successful road trip, they returned to Boston, unsure of the future of their business. It was their common practice to gather friends at their apartment following such trips to share stories and to ask their friends to comment on drawings and sayings posted on their living room walls. On this occasion, one drawing received considerable favorable attention from their friends— the head of a beret-wearing, smiling stick figure and the phrase "Life is good." The brothers named the character Jake and printed up 48 shirts bearing a smiling Jake and the words "Life is good." At a street fair in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the shirts sold out in less than an hour.{} The brothers began to sell T-shirts and hats featuring Jake in local stores. Demand for the merchandise grew quickly, as did national recognition of the brand.
The album met limited success when compared to the group's 1999 self-titled release. The only compact disc single released was "Life Is Good", despite the fact that "Every Other Time" achieved more popularity and radio air time. The song "6 Minutes" was later covered by the American pop rock band Jonas Brothers on their 2006 release It's About Time.
Track listing
Suzie's Pillow is considered a hidden track and begins with ten minutes and one second of silence.
Life Is Good is the eleventh studio album by American rapper Nas. It was recorded at various studios in New York and California, and produced primarily by No I.D. and Salaam Remi. Nas wrote the album after his divorce from recording artist Kelis and compared it to Marvin Gaye's 1978 record Here, My Dear. He wanted to vent personal feelings and address moments in his life in his songs, while drawing on 1980s hip hop influences for the album's production in order to complement its nostalgic tone.
Life Is Good features personal subject matter, themes of adulthood and nostalgia, and reflections on Nas' personal life and experience in hip hop. His rapping is characterized by a relaxed, plainspoken flow, internal rhymes, and a tone that veers from malicious to nostalgic and introspective. The album's production incorporates orchestral elements and musical references to both contemporary and golden age hip hop, including boom bap beats and old schoolsamples.
When Life Is Good was released on July 13, 2012, by Def Jam Recordings, it received widespread critical acclaim and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in the United States. It also reached the top 10 of record charts in Canada, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. It was promoted with three singles—"Nasty", "The Don", and "Daughters"—five music videos, and Nas' touring during June to December 2012. By February 10, 2013, Life Is Good had sold 354,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Life Is Good is the second studio album by Canadian country music artist Gord Bamford. It was released on October 19, 2004 by GWB Records and distributed by Royalty Records. Six singles were released from the album: "Heroes," "My Heart's a Genius," "All About Her," "Life Is Good" and "I Would for You."
Critical reception
Jared Majeski of Canadian Online Explorer gave the album a positive review. He calls the album "a very personal and intimate look into Bamford's life." He goes on to say that Bamford "sings about his parents, his past and his passions. With the recent birth of his first child, Bamford's life isn't just good - it's great."
