Post #710: Blue October - "Calling You" - History for Sale

**Warning**Warning** --- Today's song will get stuck in your head, and you'll be humming it for the rest of the day... but it's so amazing that I'd be surprised if you weren't thanking me for it later!!! --- **Warning**Warning**


So I was cleaning up my blog yesterday... figuring out what videos need to be updated and whatnot... when I realized that I have been posting since 2012... which means how many Octobers have passed without me posting about Blue October?!?!?  What a complete shame!!!

Anyway, Blue October hails from my great state of Texas, and they'll actually be passing through DFW in a few weeks... on Saturday, October 20th, to be exact!

I'll be honest when I admit that I only really got into this song and another one of their hits called "Hate Me" (which I'll post below the lyrics); however, I do appreciate the fact that the lead singer has been very open about his struggles with addiction and that he translated his experience, strength, and hope into some amazing lyrics!!

And speaking of bands passing through DFW, I am completely blown away by some of the bands that have been showing up on my Pandora feed: Snow Patrol on 10/27; Simple Minds on 11/03; Cat Power on 11/29; Gin Blossoms on 12/07; Brian Setzer Orchestra on 12/10... and these are just the ones that I'm seriously considering attending!! There are a whole slew of others that I might attend, as well!!

Hope everyone is well and enjoying what has always been my favorite month of the year, sometimes lovingly known as Rocktober!!!

Until next time...

XOXOXO

There's something that I can't quite explain
I'm so in love with you
You'll never take that away
And if I've said a hundred times before
Expect a thousand more
You'll never take that away
So expect me to be
Calling you to see
If you're okay when I'm not around
Asking "if you love me"
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make a smile
Well I will keep calling you to see
If you're sleeping, are you're dreaming
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can't believe you actually picked me
I thought that the world had lost it's sway
(It's so hard sometimes)
Then I fell in love with you
(Then came you)
And you took that away
(It's not so difficult
The world is not so difficult)
You take away the old
Show me the new
And I feel like I can fly when I stand next to you
So while I'm on this phone
A hundred miles from home
I'll take the words you gave me and send them back to you
I only want to see
If you're okay when I'm not around
Asking "if you love me"
I love the way you make it sound
Calling you to see
Do I try too hard to make you smile?
To make a smile
Well I will keep calling you to see
If you're sleeping are you're dreaming
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can't believe you actually picked me
Well I will keep calling you to see
If you're sleeping are you're dreaming
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can't believe you actually picked me
Well I will keep calling you to see
If you're sleeping are you're dreaming
If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
I can't believe you actually picked me
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
