This is exciting! Just To Be Where You Are was previously recognized as a demo when they were known as ā€œFKAā€ but Jason mentions that this was recorded during the NNF era within months of HBAM.

Does anyone remember what FKA was? I thought it was the name of their church group? Anyways, love this song!!

I seem to recall reading FKA as being ā€œFormerly Known Asā€ and being a church group. Stand, Dance, and those other worship-type songs were said to be a part of it. Perhaps this track never was? Either Jason or Jude Cole once said that Lifehouse had never performed live before touring in support of NNF, so if this song as a live track was floating around then it means it was performed prior to the release and mustā€™ve been under a different name. Maybe he was still performing with a church band at the time he wrote this and HBAM, concurrently with creating NNF? So many questions.

I really like this track. Lyrically itā€™s alright, but the singing and melody feels very The Edge era Jason:)

Title: Sky Is Falling - Live

Last night I was driving and listening to the Ode to Silence CD for the first time in a minuteā€¦ made me think of the Time Machine Jasonā€™s started up and the lyrics from that song. The chorus goes:
The rain and the tears become one
This doesnā€™t feel much like living
And Iā€™ll build you a time machine
Do anything to make you happy
And it might be space that you need
If you want me to stay here just ask me

He wouldā€™ve written this between 2018 and early 2021, I imagine referencing the same subject as Windows (and perhaps Little Ocean!). Whether itā€™s his or heā€™s referring to Bowie (Steveā€™s child), it made me smile to think that he did build a time machine after all, now in happier circumstances:)

Iā€™m really excited for A Likely Story. I donā€™t think heā€™s ever done an album with a single narrative before, but it sounds like heā€™s contextualizing the ups and downs heā€™s had over the years that have led to where he is now. Even putting in songs like What Happens Next (the precursor to Whatever It Takes); seems like heā€™s pulling no punches and holding nothing back, even digging up very very old versions of him (Shadows, J2BWYA) to reflect on. I love when a songwriting career covers two thirds of someoneā€™s life.

This is a pretty one. I get Sufjan Stevens vibes for sure. Some really interesting production moments in the backing vocals and instrumentation, and the cover art is beautiful. Iā€™m quite excited for this group of songs!

Ohh I like this one. Let me try to get the lyrics here


So tell me something that might be true
No bedtime stories, let me get a real look at you
Cause where Iā€™m standing thereā€™s too many veneers
Too many versions, too many crocodile tears

Said she didnā€™t do it for the glory
Only did it for the king
Maybe youā€™re just a person
Yeah, youā€™re just a human being

Said every day is Sunday morning
And the prophet swore on everything
Said she didnā€™t do it for the glory
But isnā€™t that a likely story

So if I take your word with a grain of salt
Please forgive me not saying itā€™s all your f(ault
But youā€™ve been acting so strange for a while
A royal welcome walking a (?) mile

Said you didnā€™t do it for the glory
Only did it for the king
Maybe youā€™re just a person
Donā€™t have to be a super being

Said every day is Sunday morning
And the prophet swore on everything
Said she didnā€™t do it for the glory
But isnā€™t that a likely story

So tell me something that might be true
No bedtime stories, let me get a real look at you

Chorus

I think those lyrics are pretty accurate. I think it might be ā€œand the prophets won everythingā€ instead of ā€œswore onā€ and I think it is ā€œA royal welcome walking a beggarā€™s mile.ā€ I really like this song :smile:

Quite possibly my fav one out of all the acoustic Stanley Climbfall tracks. Hoping reimagined version of Anchor is also in the works

Yesā€¦ definitely my favorite so far. The falsetto was so beautiful. A reimagined Anchor would be absolutely amazing. I definitely see this song differently after listening to the acoustic version, and Iā€™d love to hear it officially reimaginedā€¦ Iā€™m really excited for The Beginning. It just popped into my mind to see if they had ever played it live and I found a video on YouTubeā€¦ it was so good! I donā€™t know how I can stand to wait two more weeksā€¦ and then weā€™ll get to hear How Long! :grin:

Realllyyyyy hoping for How Long!! Itā€™s my favourite song from that era, and I think the best song on SCf. He said he had three songs left and he had done 10 tracks so it seems like heā€™s planning to do it? Fingers crossed.

This was my favourite acoustic so far too:) the second verse and chorus was stunning
