THE FRAY - HOW TO SAVE A LIFE
The Fray is an American rock band from Denver, Colorado. Formed in 2002 by schoolmates Isaac Slade and Joe King, they achieved success with the release of their debut album, How to Save a Life in 2005, which was certified double platinum by the RIAA and platinum in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the UK. The Fray achieved national success with their first single, "Over My Head (Cable Car)", which became a top ten hit in the United States. The release of their second single, "How to Save a Life", brought the band worldwide fame and was included in the massive sitcome "Grey's Anatomy". The song charted in the top three of the Billboard Hot 100 and was a top 5 single in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
The group's self-titled, second album, released in 2009, debuted at number-one on the Billboard charts and was certified gold in the United States, Australia and Canada. It was also nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album in 2010. While both the albums were commercially successful, critical reception was mixed. The Fray was ranked No. 84 on Billboard's "Artists of the Decade" list. Their third album Scars & Stories, released in 2012, achieved moderate commercial success; debuting and peaking at number four on the Billboard 200. The album again received mixed reviews from critics. The band's fourth album, Helios, was released in February 2014. The band's fifth and latest album, Through the Years: The Best of the Fray, was released in November 2016.
The Fray's use of the piano as the lead instrument in their music has led critics to compare the band with English piano-driven bands such as Coldplay and Keane. However, the band lists its influences as the Wallflowers, Counting Crows, Better Than Ezra and U2.
Step one, you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down, it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left, and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all, you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And I pray to God he hears you
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night

When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood’s run stale
I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There’s nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Curtain’s call
Is the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl
So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you've made
Don't wanna let you down
But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don't wanna hide the truth
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

BRANDON FLOWERS - STILL WANT YOU
Brandon Richard Flowers (born June 21, 1981) is an American singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. He is best known as the lead singer, keyboardist and occasional bass guitarist of the Las Vegas-based rock band the Killers, with whom he has recorded four studio albums.
In addition to his work with the Killers, Flowers has released two solo albums, Flamingo (2010) and The Desired Effect (2015). He has topped the UK Albums Chart six times, including work by the Killers, and is a recipient of the Q Idol Award.
Flowers is regarded as a prominent frontman of the new wave revival in the 2000s.As a solo artist Flowers first e
bited elements of heartland rock as well as new wave-style alternative rock. On his sophomore album, Flowers ebited greater pop tendencies, prompting Rolling Stone Magazine to dub The Desired Effect, "the best straight-up pop album made by a rock star in recent memory."
U2's lead singer Bono praised Flowers' voice to The Globe and Mail saying, "We need him on the radio .... His voice!"
Everyone's got a combination
If you put in the time
The numbers come like a revelation
You show me yours I'll show you mine
And when you're down, girl, you got to know this
Nobody else is in your room
We'll make it through
Time is passing by still want you
Crime is on the rise still want you
Climate change and debt still want you
Nuclear distress still want you
The earth is heating up still want you
Hurricane and floods still want you
Even more than I did before
I used to think that I knew big time,
Before you came around
But I was up in the velvet gold mind
And you put my feet back on the ground
A piece of mind is a lot to ask for
These silly days but we got it made
Don't let it fade oh, no!
Time is passing by I still want you
Crime is on the rise I still want you
Climate change and debt I still want you
Nuclear distress I still want you
The earth is heating up I still want you
Hurricane and floods I still want you
Even more than I did before
And when your mind is made up
I'm gonna bring it down
When you got no time
You're gonna see it found
Your heart, grows cold
It's something on the line
Is hard for me to show
It's something you should know
Time is passing by I still want you
Crime is on the rise I still want you
Climate change and debt I still want you
Nuclear distress I still want you
The earth is heating up I still want you
Hurricane and floods I still want you
Even more than I did before

Not a big fan of the song you sent to be very honest, but I feel like I gotta cheer for him since he is one of my former WV artists (WV 60). All my artists mean a lot to me. They are like my second family. I hope you will make a good result with him even though I can't actually promise to give you many points. We will see! xsalute

Things ended in a tie! I think my first ever? So I ended up being the one who decided between the two up top. It was a tough call but I'm confident in the decision and ready for WV 137!
