Now is finally the time to post about the band I love the most! This band is one of my top five favourite bands of all time and this indie group happens to be called City and Colour. I have been a fan of City and Colour for quite some time and my 'fan-ship' has grown for the band over the years. Every time I listen to a song written and performed by Dallas Green (the man behind City and Colour) I become completely captivated by the deep words he writes. As of today I have now been to two City and Colour concerts. I also have started a memorabilia collection with various City and Colour t-shirts and a signed Vinyl Record of The Hurry and The Harm (signed by Dallas Green himself).
The song that I am featuring today is one of his most upbeat songs from the 2008 Album Bring Me Your Love. Normally the songs Dallas Green writes are very deep and depressing; which is something that I do not mind listening to because I feel as though it relaxes me. The song The Girl is one of my favourites because it is upbeat and has a happy tune that is easy to sing along to.
One of my favourite lyrics pulled from the song is: "while I'm off chasing my own dreams, sailing around the world, please know that I'm yours to keep, my beautiful girl." There is something about this lyric that makes me thing of living a perfectly happy and fulfilled life.
Take a listen and enjoy!
I really like the song Lucy. Dallas Green has such a beautiful voice and the lyrics are very upbeat.
ReplyDeleteLove the tune of The Girl, it makes me feel peaceful. The voice of Dallas is so attractive as well!!
ReplyDeleteI love listening to City and Colour. It's awesome to see someone from this area become so successful on the music scene. Ever since his days with Alexisonfire, I have been a fan of Dallas Green. This is one of my favourite song by him as well. I would always hear it on the radio (before I had Shazam) and never knew what it was called. It was always a song that could put me in a good mood.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favourite songs!
