What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (cd)



Billed as a christian alternative band, Canada's Dakona wasn't around long. This is their last album of the three
made. Sort of reminds me of that Creed album I posted recently. Not really sure about the christian label. If you
profess your belief in God, it sticks I guess. Other than the obvious In God's Name here, nothing seems overtly
faith based. There may be some covert lines though. Better watch out, I may be influenced to lead a christian life.
Anyway, some pretty good kick ass rock on here, the best for me being the leadoff track, Waiting. Couple of other
love tracks in Richest Man and Good. Two that didn't make the grade. The picked up Goo Goo Dolls producer Rob
Cavallo for the effort and the sound certainly matches. I hereby pronounce this a good album.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Revolving

Best Track - Waiting

So you’ve packed up all your makeup
And you grabbed your magazines
And you’re leaving in the morning
On a train
I guess I’ve taken you for granted
I guess I messed this up again
I think I’ve finally learned my lesson
But too late

One thing always leads to another
One foot slips and down goes the other
One and one is two but it's just me
So until you're here

Chorus:
I’m waiting, I’m waiting here
I’m waiting
Any day, any night, anyplace, anytime

And I made this bed I lay in
But I should’ve called the maid
Such a heavy-handed lover, such a shame
I’m not too proud to say I’m sorry
If it’d bring you back again
If it’d mother all the orphans in my head
And one things always leads to another
So until you’re here. . .

Chorus

She’s setting like a sun on the horizon
I’m running through the fields to chase her down
I’d stare into the sun ’til I am blinded
Just hoping for a glimpse of where she’s bound

I’d rather lose my sight than all my feeling
I’m better when I feel my way around
I’m better when I got you there beside me
I’ll be waiting, I’ll be waiting

Chorus

I’ll try to remember forever and ever
Is only as long as you plan to stay here
So come and remind me if you got the time
Any day, any night, anyplace, anytime
