The lyrics reflect a very real fatigue with the glitz of fame and a longing for simpler roots. This gives the vocalist a massive emotional runway to work with during a performance. It marries classical harmonic progressions with a decidedly rock sensibility, making it a staple crossover piece for singers exploring the boundaries between legit theater and raw rock and roll. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e🎹 Thoughts From the Piano Bench: The biggest hurdle we face together on this tune is the classic Whiplash situation - If you don't lead your pianist then the steady plunk plunk chords will start to drag, but if we get too excited then the tempo in the choruses can get away from us.
