I’ll Say Lyrics

The first notes sparkle into life and Recwall immediately grab my interest. The motif is instant, but things get interesting when the second guitar wahs alongside with a counter-melody. Then the bass kicks in with a great run. Nice!

The verse comes in on top of all this, the vocal in the zone of Gavin Rossdale of Bush, deep and powerful. The chorus is a simpler affair, with guitars providing big open chords while the vocal moves up to provide a solid soaring line. There’s a moody solo with rhythmic stabs before a new build-up takes things into the third verse.

Stylistically, this song successfully puts a foot in grunge and post-grunge, definitely something in the zone of Pearl Jam and Bush. If Daisy Brain have their way, grunge is coming back. A return certainly gets my vote.

Listen to Recwall – ‘I’ll Say’.

I’ll Say Lyrics

I try to hold it but it never stays in place
I give it only everything that i can waste
If there were reasons I would write them in the sky
If I could change it well I certainly would try

I’ll say
Yes, I am coming home
I’ll say
Yes, everything is going to be alright

I try to own it but it isn’t up to me
I see it only when it’s right in front of me
Wish I could hide it with a little sleight of hand
I just wanna give you something you can understand

I’ll say
Yes, I am coming home
I’ll say
Yes, everything is going to be alright

What could it be that I won’t show
A little shelter from the cold
Just let us fly and never land
Just come with me now take my hand

I’ll say
Yes, I am coming home
I’ll say
Yes, everything is going to be alright
