BUT
P.S. Just in case you couldn't tell, I love them, a lot and yeah.
Today I have returned to talk about The Script who are this phenomenal Irish band that I think deserve a lot more credit than they are given because WOW they're great. To those of you who've never heard of The Script (have you lived under a rock?), the band consists of three members: Danny O'Donoghue (lead vocals & guitar), Mark Sheehan (lead guitar & vocals), and Glen Power (drums). The band formed in 2002 and since then have kicked butt with great instrumentals and lyrics. A couple of the band's biggest well known hits are "Breakeven" and "The Man Who Can't Be Moved." (Sound familiar yet?)
Lately, my older brother has rediscovered his obsession with The Script and that's led to me rediscovering mine. Car rides have consisted of blasting "If You See Kay," "Six Degrees of Separation," and "If You Could See Me Now" (along with many more), while singing at the top of our lungs and having people in the other cars stare at us (no shame). Throughout these very fun car rides, I've paid much more attention to the lyrics than usual and have realized just how much meaning every single one of their songs have.
Personally, the most powerful song I believe O'Donoghue has written so far is "If You Could See Me Now" from the band's third album, #3. The song relates to the death of his father who passed away from a stomach aneurysm on February 14, 2008. Though the reason for the song is tragic, the emotion behind the song hits you as soon as the lyrics begin to flow. It is very easy to tell how he's feeling as he's singing and how much feeling has been put into this. It's not easy to write such a song, but I do commend him on being able to do it. Everyone should listen to the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=SGlkwKA-t_4
Another song that should be listened to, is "Give the Love Around" which is also from the album #3. The song speaks of what goes around comes around and how we should give the love around because it'll spread and come back to you. Our grandparents taught our parents, our parents taught us and we will be teaching our children as well as those who look up to us. If we love others, they will learn to love others as well. As much as we may be the future generation, we are also teaching those who are going to be taking over when we're stepping down. Definitely an A+ song, listen to it!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKPyxkYfBV0
Now it's time to wrap up another one of my"This Band Is So Amazing Go and Listen To Them I Promise You Won't Regret It" posts. Seriously though, I promise you won't regret listening to them. Great instrumentals, lyrics, voices and genuine feelings with each song. But for now, adios! :)
