    Every once in a while an artist comes around that breathes new life into a dull music era. Brian is that artist.

    I cannot stop replaying this song. It's perfection to me, and I cry every time I listen to this. I swear, Brian Fallon has this ability to write a song and it feels like it was written for me. Almost every song he writes feels so very personal. This one just gets to me.

    This isn't just one of the greatest song i've heard by Brian, it's one of the greatest songs i've ever heard period. That beautiful chorus knocks it out the park. Sleepwalkers really is a masterpiece.

      Daniel Selberg the beginning reminiscent of his Teenage Dream cover. Exceedingly outstanding.

    Did you spend most of your life waitin'
    On a fairytale read between pages?
    Did you huddle up close to your boombox radio
    Is somebody waiting on the same song?
    And we sold our souls on the fantasies we found in records and black and white movies
    And I used to beg June to burn me alive, if that would get me anywhere but here
    Now Etta James, hit that symphony
    'Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
    And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone
    'Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
    Twenty long years away from your heart
    Til finally, finally, my love is in my arms
    My love is in my arms
    And it was impossible to hold on to anything
    In my chest was a lonesome, growing cyclone
    I kept pictures tucked up into the rear view above to the sirens all lost in the ocean
    And all we wanted was absolutely everything
    Like foolish, hungry young lions
    I was lost and alone, a million light years from home
    It was nobody's fault but mine
    Now Etta James, hit that symphony
    'Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
    And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone
    'Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
    Twenty long years away from your heart
    But finally, finally, my love is in my arms
    And was there a hole in your life?
    Did you kill to keep warm but somehow never quite satisfied?
    Do you feel like it's always time to go?
    And it's always wrong, and it's always off, and it's hard to know, which heart to hold
    Now do you lie to someone, is someone else, on your mind?
    Do you lie to someone with me on your mind?
    Now Etta James, hit that symphony
    'Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
    And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone
    'Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
    Twenty long years away from your heart
    Til finally, finally, my love is in my arms
    My love is in my arms
    Etta James, Etta James
    Etta James, it's been a long time coming
    Etta James, Etta James
    Etta James, it's been a long time coming
    (At last, at last)
    Etta James, it's been a long time coming
    (At last, at last)
    Etta James, it's been a long time coming
    I could've said my love was coming 'long

    In 5 months I turn 21. I always hoped I’d meet my person at the age of 20 so the “20 long years away from your heart” line could be ours. But life has different plans and mostly I doubt there is a “my person” out there at all.

  • @maddawgnp
    @maddawgnp 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Instant tears! This may just be one of the greatest songs Brian Fallon has ever written! He really does a great job of reaching into your chest and touching your soul with “Etta James.”
    This song touches almost everyone in some way.

  • @JobberBud
    @JobberBud 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I'm always amazed that Brian Fallon can fit so many winding and intricate lyrics into a 4 minute song without sounding wordy or long winded. He can pack more emotions and thoughts into each individual song than many musicians can put into an entire album.

    • @kevinobrien1602

    You know those songs you find that just have so much emotion and soul that you find and it changes the way you think if for only a short time, and you just never want that song to end? Its like a religious experience almost. This is that song. I've loved TGA ever since The 59 Sound came out and changed my life. Keep it up Brian!!
