Review about David Gray songs

My little girl | Reviewer: joey
    ------ About the song This Year's Love performed by David Gray

Havent heard this song for years- I used to hold my little girl in my arms and dance with her to this song. She's 12 years old now and I forgot about those days with her. Feeling a bit guilty about not spending time with her and my wife reminded me of this song and those dances and it brought me back.

Thanks David Gray for those memories.

    ------ About the song Kathleen performed by David Gray

Heard David explain the lyrics to this song before he performed it at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tn. He explained this song encompases the story of a poor, young immigrant who lost the love of his life. When writing the song he said he envisioned the young man walking off into the distance, becoming smaller and smaller until he eventually vanishes from sight in search of his love.

    ------ About the song Babylon performed by David Gray

Michelle it may be because we in a "babylon" system untill we want out. One example is bob marleys burn down babylon changed to chant down, lots of info on net about babylonian slave system. but i interpret the song to be about hmmm "enlightenment" being true to yourself i suppose, never really appreciated the beauty of it till now. :-)

    ------ About the song Babylon performed by David Gray

Have always loved this song. Heard it on the car radio Friday night after not hearing it for a while and really cranked it up, sang along. It's a guy's confession that he hadn't admitted he loved someone and a reminder to us all to keep our hearts and minds open to the possibility/reality of love in our lives. The combination of lyrics, music, his voice and the arrangement of the material is SO mesmerizing and captivating and inspiring! GREAT SONG. Still playing in my head 3 days later.


What is it about this song? | Reviewer: Tommy
    ------ About the song Babylon performed by David Gray

Mechelle, I'm with you. I'm a 50 year old guy and this song grabbed my insides before I even figured out what the lyrics were. There's something about the melody, some secret progression of notes combined with David's everyman's voice that makes me nostalgic. But the really weird thing is I welled up the first time I heard it and I didn't know what he was singing about! Amazingly special song. In my personal personal Top 20. I never get tired of hearing it.


Repo Man | Reviewer: gunner
    ------ About the song The One I Love performed by David Gray

Repo Man would refer to GOD 'cos GOD is the one who gives life & "repos" life.

I am sure this song was written for me.

"There's things I might have said, only wish I could..."

If you want to say something to someone, DO IT!!! I wish I did!


Its not repo man | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song The One I Love performed by David Gray

The lyrics are printed here are not quite right.

The corus is not about the repo man. I believe it is the reaper man as in the grim reaper who is coming to claim his soul.

I definitely take from this song about a young soldier fallen and dying on the battlefield and i too get very emotional especially when i think about all the brave lads who are currently overseas and defending our life and liberty and paying this kind of price.

Graet song and great lyrics from one of the best song writers of our time.


Believer | Reviewer: Angel
    ------ About the song It's Not Easy To Be Me performed by David Gray

I believe men are meant to fly - maybe not literally - but we were all created to soar. I kind of like the song "Your Raise Me Up" more. That dreams can come true. People like Martin Luther King had a dream ("I have a dream") and they saw their dream become a reality. Just because one has lost hope doesn't mean we have to buy into it. We all have a future, a plan, a and a purpose. There is hope - His name is Jesus. He is a man named Jesus. You can call upon Him and know Him today. That is what changed my life. Set me free from depression and an eating disorder. Now I believe I have purpose, a future and a hope - because Jesus has loved me and set me free.
It's like the song Amazing Grace "I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind but now I see". God has touched my heart and opened my eyes. You can know Him too. Just call upon Him and say "God if you are real, show me" and He truly will.


Searching | Reviewer: Daunted
    ------ About the song It's Not Easy To Be Me performed by David Gray

Maybe I'm a little too optimistic, but this song always seemed kind of sad to me, but also hopeful... meh, I could just be crazy.
"Even heroes have the right to bleed"... I love that line.
And everyone needs something to define them, that makes them who they are. It's not gay at all to search for that little spark that makes you an individual rather than just "a part of the group."
They always say "know yourself"... but it's harder than it seems.
