"Don't give up the day job" = đừng bỏ công việc hằng ngày -> nghĩa là đừng từ bỏ công việc hiện tại để theo đuổi ước mơ vì khả năng thành công là rất nhỏ. 

Ví dụ
Despite Tommy giving the song his all, his singling abilities were questioned by his fans, with many saying the video had left them in hysterics (hết sức buồn cười, chứng cuồng loạn). One person wrote on Twitter: “Mate, don't give up the day job, your singing! Wow.”

A third said: "Those eggs look awful (kinh khủng) mate (bạn nghề). Don't give up the day job. Oh hang on, have you got one?" "I bet Gordon Ramsey is s****ing himself after that, another “ celebrity” who thinks they can be a chef," added another.

He and Hough, though, cannot have found too much challenge in the works, which are essentially Schubert 1.0: pretty, legato melodies (giai điệu khoan thai) underpinned by simple piano harmonies (hài hòa) accessorised by being played as arpeggios (hợp âm rải) or chords (hợp âm) repeated at octaves (bát độ, quãng tám). The piano, of course, was perfect for these, and responded captivatingly (làm say đắm) to Hough’s expert touch. Lovely, Albert, but don’t give up the day job.
