Misery Loves Company - You Don't Have To Hide

Length: 03:45
Writers: Ryan Williams
Producer: Shay McCarthy
Genre: Rock
Label: Studio60



Song Description: You Don't Have To Hide is a rock song written by frontman Ryan Williams to be released on the Lo-Fidelity charity CD. The song starts off slow paced with light strumming and a keyboard based backing, Williams softly whispers the first verse until he gets to "Is it something is should fear?", the band take the song up a beat as Williams vocals get more heavily influential on the song before a thundering chorus with the chorus being belted out with "anymore" being held for some time, displaying his vocal talent. As we enter the second verse, the song is much more lively than it was first time round with a steady drum beat and clear guitar strumming Williams matches with his sombre voice teasing us before the electrifying chorus. Going into the bridge the group vocals being chanting "Woah" over heavy guitar and bass play before quieting down once again. Williams voice is almost-whisper like for the whole bridge until he changes key into a more aggressive approach in "that's you life". The song again continues with its strong chorus playing the song to a close.

Lyrics:

Give me just a second to see what’s going on here
I’m freaking out right now, is it something I should fear?
You know that ill stay with you until you get the all-clear
Even if it takes all year,
Its something I’m willing to endear

You don’t have hide anymore
Ill be right by your side forever more
You don’t have to fear about disappearing
If there was a way I could take your pain,
I would,
If it meant that you would remain here

Don’t think of the worst, think of how your going to be
Is there anything more I can do to help you see?
You know that whenever or wherever, you can call me
In the end there wont be much debris,
You’ll forget about this when your swimming in the sea

You don’t have hide anymore
Ill be right by your side forever more
You don’t have to fear about disappearing
If there was a way I could take your pain,
I would,
If it meant that you would remain here

Woah, woah......Woah......
Woah, woah......Woah......

There is no maybe, there is a will be
You’ll be safe right by my side
You give me every reason to believe,
That some things are bigger than fame
More important than chasing a future wife
And that’s your precious life.

You don’t have hide anymore
Ill be right by your side forever more
You don’t have to fear about disappearing
If there was a way I could take your pain,
I would,
If it meant that you would remain here
Ill be by your side forever more,
Forever means ever, I’ll never let you fall

As the song plays out, masses of screams block out the host's thanks to the band.

Tom: Wow! That was fantastic. Ladies and gentlemen.. MISERY LOVES COMPANY!

Now, if you boys could join me over here for a quick interview.

They all sit on the sofa in-front of the crowd.

Tom: Once again, thanks for that performance.

Riley: Thank you for having us on!

Tom: Ok, first is first. You Don't Have To Hide, can you tell us a bit about the song?

Ryan: Sure. The song was wrote for the Lo-Fidelity charity record which is to be released in the future, and basically the whole record had been started over the sad news of Michelle Green. We all know people who have had cancer, some have pulled through other have passed and i am no different, so as soon as we heard about it.. we wanted in on it. When we got the go ahead i started writing, then we went to the studio in a one-off day with Shay and just through it out there. You can't buy it separately, sorry, it wont be released as a single.

Tom: Good stuff. Your debut record Two Sides To The Story went TOP on sunday, that must have been a proud moment?

Nate: Absolutely! We at the time of making it never thought anything like this would happen, we would have been happy if only our parents bought it but the fact so many people did is something amazing. We are blessed to have such cool fans.

Josh: Yeah, i mean, we are just 4 regular kids who love music. Some people never get the chance to release something like this so we're very grateful to the label for putting so much trust and time into us.

Tom: I bet. You are having success with Cameras and Lights also, have you any plans for the next single?

Ryan: Am, kinda. I mean, we are toying around with a few things one being making a music video but yeah we will have another single of the record soon. At the minute it could be anything but we want it to be Visually Impaired.

Tom: Cool, cool. Now, tour time. First headlining tour starts soon, looking forward to it?

Ryan: Hell yeah! We have never went on a big tour before even as a support act so to jump into the deep end and headline the shows is crazy! We grew up playing to friends and family only and now look, sold out tour of North America.. tis crazy. But yeah, we're looking forward to it, it'll be great to hang with two super cool bands to in Superheroes In Training and Down But Not Out.

Tom: There's a little rumor going round saying you guys are brining a film crew with you?

Ryan: Haha. Well, i can tell you we aint making a film anyway! Yeah we have a little surprise coming out after tour, it may.. be a documentary on the band, who knows. Haha.

Tom: Exciting! Ok, we're running out of time. Can you tell us any future plans you guys have?

Ryan: Believe it or not, we have already started planning for record number 2! We hate doing nothing so, we wanna get to work on a new record as soon as. Obviously it won't be out for a long time yet though haha, but expect a 2012 release definitely.

Tom: Ok thank you very much guys, its been a pleasure having you on the show.

Once again everyone show your appreciation for Misery Loves Company!

Love Sick (ft. Ryan Ross Hernandez)

Lyrics

I'm diseased and I'm a mess,
I just can't take the stress,
Of always being the best,
Sometimes I need a rest,
The thought of being with you,
Makes my heart beat 1 then 2,
Because my love is true,
But you'll never let me through.

Can anyone save me from the pain that I feel,
Can anyone relive that night that was so real,
My heart is open and my feelings blatant,
My love is for you, I'll be forever patient,
I need some help, a swish, a flick,
To help me through being love sick

The days grow cold, the nights grow long,
My face grows old, but my love stays strong,
Will you help me get back to where I belong?
The only problem is that you are long gone...
My heart still beats and time stays still,
I've missed out on my treats and now I'm ill,
People will laugh but I'll just take another pill,
But the pain still grows, going in for the kill.

Description

A steady strumming and plucking of a guitar plays over a simple keyboard loop. An occasional symbol can be heard in the back ground. Then Ryan Ross Hernandez’s clear bluesey vocals can be heard to be singing the first line of the song. His strong voice sings the first words slowly and clearly, so as to allow the listener to fully understand them. The strumming picks up as a low baseline can be heard in the background.
Hernandez reaches the end of the fourth line and then a gentle ‘wobbing’ sound starts to come through. The Dubstep influences on the track make for a faster feeling to the song, although it is a very blues type song.
The first verse comes to a close and the ‘wobbing’ increases in pace and pitch, helping to build the song up for the breakdown. As the song drops, Hernandez’s vocals come back in over the madness of the so called ‘blues-step’ that Buzz & Hype have created. This creates a very surreal song type which highlights not only the variety of Buzz & Hype, but also something slightly different from Hernandez.
The song slows down as the second verse comes to a close and then a set of simple chords on a guitar help to give Ryan Ross Hernandez’s voice a familiarity that most of his fans will be used to, as well as the now much quieter Dubstep influence still giving him a new edge.
The last four lines of the song are sang over complete silence, and after Hernandez speaks the last five words, he sighs and the songs comes to a close.

I can finally say that there will be details coming soon for my first EP, i know that this website has been up for 4 Months now or whatever and i've been telling you that the details on my first 2 EPs would be up soon, well one of them is finally working. It's because they were never on iTunes or something... I dont know...

But yeah, i am also gonna be touring with my good friend Aaron Marks on his headline TrendingTopics tour, with Kayla Rivers. I can't actually say i've heard of her if i'm honest... Whoops :S should probably do my homework on her before i meet her on the tour on the 5th!! So yeah, the tour dates are all between November 5th and November 27th.

Watch out then today for the actual info on the Bad Blood EP, which is also now available on iTunes if anybody wants to get it. It's over a year old now, but i suppose not many people have it, but go for it :)"
