"This Is the Life" is a song by Scottish singer-songwriter Amy Macdonald from her 2007 album of the same name. It was released on 10 December 2007 in the United Kingdom, and in April 2008 in most of European countries, becoming a major hit worldwide. It has so far been Macdonald's most successful single, topping eight music charts and reaching the top ten on nine other charts around the world. Conversely, the song did not match the success of "Mr Rock & Roll" in the United Kingdom, stalling at number 28 on the UK Singles Chart and number 18 in her native Scotland. The music video consists of pictures of Macdonald and her friends' night out.

The song was used in a 2010 advert for the Fiat 500 shown across Europe.[1] It was also used in the early 2011 as an advert in Norway and re-entered the chart directly at number one. It is also used as an opening theme for a Polish television series True Law.

The track was also released in the US on a vinyl 45 rpm single (Decca UCGR-00199-1) with unique picture sleeve, backed with "Let's Start a Band."

Chart performance

The song was first released in late 2007 in the United Kingdom, but achieved only moderate success, peaking at number 28 on the UK Singles Chart and number 18 on the Scottish Singles Chart. In 2008, it was released in many European countries, achieving huge success. It reached number one in Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, and the Netherlands. In Flemish Belgium and the Netherlands, "This Is the Life" was the highest-selling song of 2008. It also reached the top three in France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. In Spain, the song was certified 2× Platinum with sales of over 80,000 units in 2009. In Norway, the song reached number 10 during its initial release, but in January 2011, the song re-entered the chart at number one.
