How To Save A Life...

I was kinda late to discover this simple yet awesome song (and album) by this relatively new band, The Fray. Ive heard the song many times before but havent really noticed its craft. It was in "Grey's Anatomy" that i then [re]discovered the impact and beauty of this simple song. All of a sudden, it has become my national anthem for a time. The title itself provides a lot of possible interpretations. It was also that time when i was getting hooked on "piano rock" so The Fray was absolutely a good find. (Thanks to Linkin Park and Evanescence, piano became an integral part in many rock songs.)

Later on, i also discovered that they are not just another band. They are a band with spiritual depth. Being a mainstream band, the spirituality of their songs might not be too quickly evident. I think their second album to be released in February will have more spiritual message as already evident in the first single "You Found Me."

Overall, How to Save a Life (the album) is nearly perfect. Nearly every song's message contains key values and life lessons.

The title track "How to save a life" is a song written by Isaac for friend who had an untimely death.
