'Just A Little'


Not many of you would have heard of Angels and Airwaves.Even less still would have heard that they're coming to town somewhere in early December.Now,i'm no big fan of theirs.But their songs carry messages of peace,love,war.And that in itself attracts me because it's different then what the rock scene usually offers.AVA's songs make you think about your life.In fact,about life itself.About how messed up it all really is.AVA is made up of former Blink 182 frontman,Tom Delonge.Former Boxcar Racer guitarist,David Kennedy.Former Offspring drummer,Atom Willard.And my bassist idol,the person and reason i got into bass,former 30 Seconds to Mars bassist,Matt Wacther.His bassline solos are wicked.But when needed,he can carry a more than decent rythmn bass.As a tribute to this San Diego,California alternative rock band,the blog song is now 'Start The Machine - Angels And Airwaves'.It's one of my personal favourites from them.It's a song about how you're blamed for something you didn't do and why you won't apologise for it.It's about standing up for what you believe in.This song means a lot to me.

'Start The Machine

The ash set in then blew away
It’s getting lost into the sea
I grew so close to all the thoughts I had to leave forever
I left the chill and voice of screams and kids and ran for shelter

You know I won't say sorry
You know I won't say sorry
The pain has a bad reaction
A blend of fear and passion
You know what it's like to believe
It makes me wanna scream

I see a glow from far away
A faint reflection on the sea
I left some words quite far from here to be a short reminder
I laid them out in stone in case they need to last forever

You know I won't say sorry
You know I won't say sorry
The pain has a bad reaction
A blend of fear and passion
You know what it's like to believe
It makes me wanna scream

I see the stars, they’re in your eyes
A playful kiss, can you tell I'm excited?
A fast escape in the nick of time
If you lost your wish, can I help you find it?
I'm on my knee, just one to start
A fresh new start, don't be undecided

If love’s a word, that you say
Then say it, I will listen
If love’s a word, that you say
Then say it, I will listen
If love’s a word, that you say
Then say it, I will listen
If love’s a word, that you say
Then say it, I will listen
If love’s a word, that you say
Then say it, I will listen
If love’s a word, that you say
Then say it, I will listen (I will listen)'
