A chill on my skin
As I watch the world cave in
Can't see the light
With our backs against the sun can you believe what we've become?
Faith is falling, hate is rising
Can't you hear Mother Mary crying?
Homes are broken, children dying
Can't you hear Mother Mary crying?
I wish I could wipe away her tears...

Awesome rock cover of Christina Perri's "Jar of Hearts".

Sometimes, it's one thing
And next time, it's nothing
It's more than mistrusting
It ends up just crushing me
Stop with the fighting
I know it's the right thing
I won't let you do this
We have to get through this
So, say something, I'm not holding back
Before the scene we made goes and fades to black
‘Cause I can't wait while you think this through
We don't have endless time, remember who left who
‘Cause I won't wait, won't wait for you

Woah these guys are still making music? Awesome new find!
When I was a kid, I thought I'd save the world
Running 'round and chasing all the criminals
Swinging on a web, flying in the sky
Shooting lasers from my eyes
But now I know it never was my destiny
It's not my place in life, not who I'm meant to be
And I don't need the glory, I don't need the fame
And I don't wanna wear this cape
'Cause on the inside (on the inside), I know it won't last
On the inside (on the inside), I'm an outcast
Well, everybody needs a hero, but I'm not everybody else
I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, oh, yeah
You know, I tried to be a hero, but I was lying to myself
I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, yeah, I walk alone, oh, yeah ♪ ♫ ♪

Awesome cover of another Shawn Mendes' track. He is quickly becoming the male version of Taylor Swift when it comes to punk goes pop covers for me. By that I mean, the covers turn out extremely well because the original songs were really good in the first place. This is the second cover of a Shawn Mendes song that I shared on this this blog. The first one was In My Blood by Cemetery Drive.
The chorus on this track is so catchy. I can't stop listening to it!
She pulls me in enough to keep me guessing, mmm
And maybe I should stop and start confessing
Confessing, yeah
Oh, I've been shaking
I love it when you go crazy

Starting off the week with another good find. If you can get through the screaming verses, you are rewarded with a great sounding chorus. It's like this song was modeled after beauty and the beast.
I want you to know

So take my heart
and keep it safe for me
I don't know what to think
I hope I make it through

You stole my heart away

Now Listening to... Volume: 9 🎵
Up to Volume 9 now on my playlists. As usual with my playlists, this one spans the spectrum of the rock genre. There's pop rock, pop punk, emo, slow rock and some heavier tracks. There's also a couple of piano/cello covers in this playlist. One notable thing with this playlist, is the number of really good songs I've discovered. I list some of them further below.
First off, what is my favorite song in this playlist? Picking this one was tough. The really good songs in this playlist were news songs I've discovered. So, I wanted to pick one that isn't something new to me. And with that restriction in place, I pick "In My Blood / Swan Lake" by The Piano Guys. Just like the previous playlist, this one is not even a rock song. This is an awesome piano and cello cover of Shawn Mendes' hit song. Then they went one step further and combined it with a classical piece in Swan Lake. A really good track.
Now, as far as new songs I just discovered, there are many good ones in this playlist. And again, just like the previous playlist, I end up with a tie. It's between "Quiet Now" by by Cold and "Shift – Acoustic" by Nova Prospekt. Both really good rock tracks. "Quiet Now" sounds a little more like mainstream rock. While "Shift" sounds different, like it has some tinge of emo and some other rock genre that I can't quite place. Kinda reminds me of A Perfect Circle in some parts. Either way, both are wonderful songs to listen to.
I mentioned that this playlist is filled with great song discoveries. Here are three more that I think are also really good.
- Fading Star by Weaving The State - Never Coming Home by Point North - Fool's Gold by Chapel
Who says you can't find great songs to listen to in Spotify? You just have to know where to look.
Lastly, special mention has to go "Higher" by Creed. This song has aged well. My high school years were defined by a few notable rock bands -- Creed was one of them. This song takes me back to the good old days of hanging around with good friends.

Love the lyrics on this song, especially the ones on the bridge.
You can run, but you can't hide
Time won't help you
Cause karma has no deadline
You can run, but you can't hide
Time won't help you
Cause karma has no deadline
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
Cause I'll forget but I'll never forgive you
Don't you know, don't you know
True friends stab you in the front?
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you
You broke my heart & there's nothing you can do
And now you know, now you know

Wow, I've never heard this All Time Low track until today. What a good find! I was already sold when I heard the intro. But then the chorus hits and I'm in aural bliss.

Long live pop punk!
The heart on my sleeve, is your favorite object
So burn all the clothes I left in your closet
And the moon broke out in a burst of flame

Love this track. Great combination of rap and rock. The lyrics are almost poetic and are fun to sing along.
This is exactly what has to be done, it happened so gradually
It's like I magically happened to be this phantom that candidly
Lets this dagger cut jaggedly
While you're gasping so rapidly
While you gag on this rag, I feed you while laughing so happily
It's okay to get startled and be afraid of the dark
I'll just wait here to swallow your soul and tear you apart
And I've already started, there ain't no saving your heart
This is the day of the dead, this ain't no day in the park
Here I come, here I come, grab your guns and crossbows
And run, better run from the skull and crossbones
The fun has begun, yeah, it's hard to swallow
and when I'm done, I ain't done, 'cause it's hell that follows
Now get ready for sorrow,
'Cause it's hell that follows
Hold on, Holy Ghost
Go on, hold me close
Better run, here we come
It's the day of the dead
Hold on, Holy Ghost
So long to the ones you know
Better run, here we come
It's the day of the dead ♪ ♫ ♪

New discovery! Pretty good combination of pop-punk and hard rock.
