okay so I hardly ever do this but I want to be able to find these lyrics again quickly so I'm posting them.

I am so in love with To Have Heroes that it's kinda ridic. To Have Heroes is the current project of Andy Skib. Andy Skib used to be in Midwest Kings with... yes you guessed it, David Cook. he's really good and this song is currently my favorite. it's also making me cry like a little bitch. so do with that what you will.

Better Day

All apologies my dear, I know you feel like I’m not here
and part of me is missing all the time
I only give you half of me cuz I’m afraid the rest of me
will scare you into leaving me behind

So I keep my secrets to keep us safe

I did a lot of things and I just don’t know what to say
I made mistakes that baby I can never take away
I want to tell you everything but I think we would change
So I will wait, wait for a Better Day

With everything I keep from you, you might think I don’t love you
but nothing could be further from the truth
I just want things to stay the same, they probably will the more I wait
But if we don’t talk I’m gonna fall away from you

But I keep my secrets to keep us safe

I did a lot of things and I just don’t know what to say
I made mistakes that baby I can never take away
I want to tell you everything but I think we would change
So I will wait, wait for a Better Day

I know it’s not right but I’ll keep hiding anyway
All these things I know I should say but baby I’m afraid

I did a lot of things and I just don’t know what to say
I made mistakes that baby I can never take away
I want to tell you everything but I think we would change
So I will wait, wait for a Better Day


when I get home from work tonight I'll post some links for where you can buy his EP. it's really good and I think any support he gets is awesome. I know a bunch of you like Tony Lucca. you should totally give this a try.

boys with guitars, man. it's like I'm helpless against them.

*squeals* i have barely turned off the EP since i got it last weekend. i love it. i like "better day", but my favorite is "LA Girl". and "story of your life". he's an incredible songwriter for a 22-year-old, geez.

don't know if you joined the lj comm yet, but he's doing some sort of video Q&A on justin.tv tomorrow (sat) at 3:30pm our time.

i'm going to need an andy icon pretty soon, i can tell.

i really like all the songs. like A LOT. "better day" was just the one that reduced me to tears so it got my attention. :) and holy jesus. he's only 22? ugh.

yeah i saw that. hopefully i'll be back from running my errands by then so i can watch.

but yeah. i really like his stuff. i have to admit that i approached it not expecting much. i worry sometimes that fangirls will support anything related to their fav celebrity and not really look at the content. but yay he's awesome! \o/

yes, that. exactly. and i've been guilty of doing that myself sometimes. but andy really is awesome. and yeah, he's 22. *shakes head* he also has engineering credits on analog heart, which i only just found out. and did vocals on "silver".

i'm about to go send him a message on facebook & point out to him that he really should schedule a gig for sept 12th in tulsa. heh.

I APPROVE OF THIS IDEA.

good, 'cause i just sent it to him. LOL.

aside from just my selfish desire to see him perform live, i think it would be a really smart move on his part. i think we could round up quite a turnout of cook fans who will be in town, anyway. and, um, as a possible bonus, the idols don't have a show that night. so, y'know, guest stars are always welcome.

i would actually consider going out to his gig in L.A. ... except i'm in kansas city that night, seeing the boyfriend. oops.

yeah I was going to ask you if you were going to the gig in LA and then realized you would be on another leg of your great AI adventure of '08. :)

and oh andy. seriously bb. think about tulsa on 9/12. it would be oh so very epic. <3

have you watched the Q&A from today. omg, awkward. he was so uncomfortable talking to the camera, LOL.
