Secondhand Serenade New 2010 Album – Hear Me Now

Secondhand Serenade New 2010 Album – Hear Me Now

July 16, 2010 | With: Sharing Among

Launching 3rd of August 2010.. The previous album by Secondhand Serenade was A Twist in My Story.. The song “Fall for You” went platinum and I personally love this emo song. Even John Vesely on his mySpace profile written it as EMO genre..

Do people still listen to emo music? I suppose they do must because Dashboard Confessional is still making music and Secondhand Serenade’s radio smash “Fall For You” went platinum. I personally can’t see why we need any more lines like “My eyes feel like they’re bleeding” and the vocals of John Vesely—the man behind Secondhand Serenade—just sound contrived and phony desperate to me. But whether or not I think we need more music from Vesely is beside the point because his third release, “Hear Me Now” is being released without my input.

“Hear Me Now” is characterized by mediocre emo-pop ballads and a heaping of the most stereotypical, tear-your-heart-out-in-the-middle-school-bathroom sound imaginable, but there are surprising moments that manage to transcend the tackiness. The first track “Distance” is a typical soaring emo ballad with lyrics that sound juvenile, uninspired, and recycled as Vesely sings “I swear I’m sorry/Please don’t hate me too.” The next track, “Something More” however, is a poignant prodding of life’s purpose—hardly a new subject matter, but everyone’s entitled to their chance to untangle it—accompanied by genre-blending R&B beats. The title track “Hear Me Now” is incredibly angst-ridden, but carries integrity and believability that other songs lack. The song also has changes in tempo and feel that add to the song’s interest.

If you can’t get enough of emo music, doubtless you’ll enjoy the most recent offering by the radio’s favorite emo act. For the rest of us who enjoy most of life and are happy to leave junior high behind, we’ll probably just skip over it.

Here’s something I did few years back with the album songs..

MAYBE it is A TWIST IN MY STORY that i had just FALLen FOR YOU. Without knowing you have been LIKE A KNIFE that hurt me unintentionally. I PRETEND-ed everything was fine but i think after all i SUPPOSED I’m making it worse. WHY is this happening.. I never received YOUR CALL or sms anymore.. Everyday just a “hi” and GOODBYE. You think that’s enough? That’s up to you.. Now, I’m like a STRANGER in your life and we are so far apart.. MAYBE you would just tell me I’m thinking too much.. that’s what i told myself too and that’s a total lie to myself though.. Please just for once.. Just for once STAY CLOSE, DON’T GO.. i don wanna lose this friend i cherished our friendship alot.. Is this THE LAST SONG EVER we are gonna sing together? I really hope not..

Just like 2 years back, the DISTANCE between YOU & I did not get closer after SO LONG that you were trying to STAY AWAY from me, things that happened was like a NIGHTMARES and the ONLY HOPE i have now is you do good, REACHING FOR THE SKY, going after your dream. YOU ARE still like A DRUG to me sometimes but the WORLD TURNS no matter what and I have to wake up. We live our own life now but I can feel SOMETHING MORE is within us. IS ANYBODY OUT THERE gonna be for us? We are yet to find out and i hope you HEAR ME NOW that no matter what you are or who you are, you are still the one I knew. I will be yours if none of anybody are for us out the
