Song 74

 Song 74

Hello my fellow music nerds! Welcome back to the blog! Once again, I have a hard time deciding what song to do! Especially since the artists I listen to have released some new songs, so I go through songs, thinking that I picked the one I want to do. Then at the last minute I change my mind! lol But I have this week's song picked out, and I hope I can convince you wonderful people to listen to it! Let's go! This week's song is Even When I'm Not With You by Pierce the Veil! This song is off their album from last year, called Jaws of Life. And it got a lot of hate, for absolutely no reason at all. I happen to love this album, and this song in particular. Starting off, there's a little bit of an intro. And it has a nice flow. Which brings us into verse 1: "I could run all night, I would never tire or slow. I could hold you tight, tighter than that sold-out show. I believe in the slow ride, so I drag your heart through the sand and snow, I couldn't live by the old school rule, I binge watch every episode. I, oh I've been wrong. Heart under the gun, look how far we've come. Think I've finally won." I like how this is spaced out, and the lyrics are very beautiful. There really isn't a chorus on this track, but the pre-chorus is the "Oh I've been wrong" line. Then we move on to verse 2: "Red lip'd snow white, sipping beer through a straw real slow, I had a perfect high. Lip locked in a bathroom stall, I." Oh sorry about that, turns out there is already a pre-chorus. And the "oh I've been wrong" section is the chorus. My bad. Then we have the bridge: Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. Even when I can't see you, I still feel you. Even when I can't touch you, I pretend to. Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. Even when I think I hate you, I still love you. Even when I can't kiss you, I still wait to. Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you." I love the bridge's lyrics, they are so romantic. It totally puts me in my feels, and I think about someone special to me. Then we have the outro, which actually has like an extra verse. "It's good to know that I'm, the only one who can cut you further. What is love besides, two souls trying to heal each other." That last line, I agree with completely. On to the music part, there's like a fuzzy guitar sound on this track which I LOVE in a song. There's also clapping, I think that's a nice human touch. It's a slow melody, and along with the guitar there sounds like another instrument as well. I think it's soft piano, it's this tinkling sound. Or it could be chimes, sometimes artists will put some wind chimes sounds in their tracks so it could be that. And if that's the case, that is awesome and a really nice touch! 

I hope you check this song out, and give Jaws of Life some love. Because it's a good album! See you next week! :)
