Always on the lookout for the coolest relatively unknown (mostly rock) songs, and thanks to the wonderful world of Internet radio and the wonderful invention of headphones I can wear at work, I have now officially fallen in love with Nevertheless, a Christian band from Chattanooga, Tennessee. The first song I heard from them, 'The Real' was what got my attention, but the two cool songs I'm playing on the loop now are 'When I'm Alone' and the following called 'Sleeping In':
Lyrics | Nevertheless lyrics - Sleeping In lyrics
I luuuurve how they work the piano and I luuuurve even more the lyrics of the song, which talks about how sometimes you just feel like 'sleeping in', not wanting to face the world and blocking out the people around you... and you think that you're the only one on the whole dang world of over 6 billion people (totally overpopulated, I say) who feels like no one understands you, but obviously there are plenty of peeps who feel the same way and you're definitely not alone. And in the end, the singer is asking God to help him stop 'sleeping in' and help him face the world outside. Doesn't everyone need a bit of help with this sometimes? ;-)
Interesting fact: The band got their name from Luke 5.5 (the part when the disciples were fishing and Jesus told them to cast their nets at the side of the boat:
"But Simon answered and said to Him, "Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net."
