Sorry for the absence guys. I was a wee bit busy. Anyway, here's my latest offering. I hope you like it! :)

Featured song: "Someone to Fall Back On" by I'll Can't Go On, I'll Go On ft. Aly Michalka [2009] (Indie)







The song is taken from the movie "Bandslam" that was released last year. The movie features Aly Michalka [Phil of the Future] of the duo 78violet. Vanessa Hudgens [High School Musical series], and Gaelan Connell [Law & Order, Chocolat]. The song above is one of the movie's band together with Aly Michalka. The movie's soundtrack actually features a number of really interesting tracks, including a cover of a song by Bread which I will feature later on.

I actually have this song on replay on my player for a couple of days now. What captivates me the most is the quiet intro that later blends into something more upbeat. Plus, it does not sound much like Aly. Heehee I like Aly and her sister, but I will feature them later on.

The tone of the song from the start makes me feel wistful or something. Like I'm flying a bit on clouds although the song is not that happy really. But it's okay. LOL You should listen, really. Whatever it is, I keep playing this song again and again. :)

Lyrics:

I'll never be
A knight in armor
With a sword in hand,
Or a kamikaze fighter;
Dont count on me
To storm the barricades
And take a stand,
Or hold my ground;
Youll never see
Any scars or wounds -
I dont walk on coals,
I wont walk on water:
I am no prince,
I am no saint,
I am not anyones wildest dream,
But I will stand behind
And be someone to fall back on.

Some comedy -
Youre bruised and beaten down
And Im the one
Whos looking for a favor.
Still, honestly,
You dont believe me
But the things I have
Are the things you need.
You look at me
Like I dont make sense,
Like a waste of time,
Like it serves no purpose -
I am no prince,
I am no saint,
And if thats what you believe you need,
Youre wrong - you dont need much,
You need someone to fall back on...

And Ill be that:
Ill take your side.
If Im the only one,
Im used to that.
Ive been alone,
Id rather be
The half of us,
The least of you,
The best of me.
And I will be
i'll be Your prince,
Ill be your saint,
I will go crashing through fences
In your name. I will, I swear -
Ill be someone to fall back on!
Ill be the one who waits,
And for as long as youll let me,
I will be the one you need.
Ill be someone to fall back on
ill be someone to fall back on
one to fall back on...
