The Script "#3"


They took The Script, rewrote the struggle regarding Science and Faith, and above all #3 is the charm.  Everyone claims to know the “Good Ol’ Days,” even when they may not old enough to drive. This song is partially about reminiscing, but at the same time creating new memories that you can recall when you’re “…old and gray.” Most of us are no stranger to a broken heart, and if you haven’t experienced one from a relationship you had, you just might. This will give you a lesson on the “Six Degrees of Seperation,” and even though “You've read the books/You've watched the shows/What's the best way no one knows, yeah.” Unfortunately, it’s through experience, and you can hear that pain through almost every note. “If You Could See Me Now” I’m low-key ecstatic of what sounds like a sample of changes by 2Pac, which borrowed the hook from Bruce Hornsby, but that’s just the way it is. The subject matter is not as far-reaching and general as 2Pac’s, but still is meaningful; dealing with the loss of loved ones, and the hope that pride exists in being their living relative. The next song addresses how one misdeed can multiply a hundredfold; example is drawn in the second verse. The message is admirable and simultaneously difficult because some people are so challenging to be kind to, but sometimes all the person needs is a smile. Tis better to “Give Love All Around” then hatred abound. “Broken arrow” may be filled with a few clichés, but “It's hard to get to heaven when you're born hell bound.” The latter holds some weight when it comes to affairs of the heart and aftereffects, but has a lighter sound. You might have forseen this, but there are “No Words” when you are looking for something completely new; the lyrical aspect was my favorite when it came to this song, especially the final verse and delivery before the repeated chorus. When it came to consistency it felt like the third one was the…( insert last part of cliché here).
