Concerts make you a wee bit obsessed with the group you saw so naturally, after seeing the DMB concert last week I've been listening to mostly all Dave with a few songs from my childhood in there somewhere. So my two favorite songs of their's is this blog's title and Grey Street. I really like how they sound. So Grey Street is about this lady who keeps to herself with no connections at all to people who lives on "grey street" funny, since that is the song's name. And her life sucks cuz she is lonely and empty and "all the colors mix together to grey" (whatever that means) and it breaks her heart. Well she prays to God and feels like God's not listening and feels even more alone and then a stalker comes up to her door (which I perceive as Satan) because basically this stalker tells her lies and to pursue something fake and that will take the courage out of her, basically fill the hole of emptiness with anything except the one thing that will fit. By the end of the song she has not changed and still broken hearted. A sad song to an up tempo beat.
You Might Die Trying is about change and how you can be the change that what to see. That just moving forward is change however small that change may seem, it is still progress to something greater (being a christian , I'm biased and relate this to Christ but it can be taken any way you want) and one verse I like is "When you give, you begin to Live" which i find to be true. Cuz when you give you put others first and yourself last. And besides Jesus taught that a lot and I heard it would be a good idea to follow His teachings. But that's just a rumor I heard ;) I hope you get a chance to hear at least these two songs because they're really good. And the Christmas Song which is all about Christ so that one is really good too. Alright I'm out.
