I had mentioned “You Got Me” in my rambling over the bands self titled album being my album of the year, and the guitar licks are still pretty sweet. But lyrically is where the song really grabbed me.
They were aboot, at least according to my translation, the people you rely on when you’re at your darkest, and being that person for someone else. Anyone who knows me personally and/or just follows along on teh Internets knows that 2011 wasn’t particularly enjoyable, and I find myself being the one relying on others mopre so that usual. More than any other song this year, on a personaly level, this one…well, got me.
Of course the band went in a different direction for the video…
One of the highlights of my year was randomly being retweeted by John Nolan.
I celebrated another anniversary of my twenty-ninth birthday two weeks ago, and God has a funny way of sending you periodic reminders that you aren’t as young as you used to be. It’s your body taking extra time to recover after a work out. Sometimes, you find out the hard way that you don’t have quite the same tolerance with the alcohol.
