Five Iron Frenzy - It Was a Dark and Stormy Night
Theyy’reee baaaaacck….!!
This is Us & Our Daughters singing song “Remeber When.” I recently heard of the group on the 21.10.11 RELEVANT Magazine Podcast. They have such a great story and after hearing their heart in the interview RELEVANT did with them I pictured them to look differently then they actually do.
The group is a couple who after having their first two daughters who are 13 months apart, Lia fell into a pretty rough depression and the couple had to really fight to keep their marriage together.
Lia and Phillip went on to explain that many people today just go along with the “break up” song and don’t really fight for their love. That they allow themselves to “follow their hearts,” and that that really tends to be what that person is feeling at that moment. Lia explained that the love really is “sweeter,” once you have fought for it, because it’s something you come to realize you both really want.
The couple has written a whole bunch of songs that have to do with love and “staying together,” because they feel that that is where they are at now. They said it was kinda funny to sell their songs, because they are personal to them, they’re the stories of their lives.
I like their sound, something soft to listen to and just relax or reflect on. Good to share with some friends that might be going through a difficult time. Definitely encouraging to couples that are just starting and recognize that it is “till death do us part.”

Metric - Help I’m Alive
Theme song of my year.
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
If you’re still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going
I get whatever I need
While my blood’s still flowing
And my heart still beats …
Beating like a hammer
