I won't say "babe, hold on" Still, I won't Our lives have taken a turn We must relearn I tried to understand I can't explain but still I wonder What should we change? Seems you have forgotten What we were like When we met Search in your mind Try to rewind You'll realize I tried to understand I can't explain but still I wonder What should we change? Soon our eyes will meet again To smile again We just need a litle spark to burn To return Out in the sun

Writers 04:03
I been here for a long time Been here lying on my bed Melodies of old time Playing somewhere in my head How many songs got the people? Some a million, some just one Please sing me a little more I feel it coming A silent movie on the silver screen I feel it coming Family, friends and lovers A singing bird and a whistle blow Please sing me a little more Been here for a long time Piles of paper wrapped up in blue Allright, allright Something more than “blah, blah, blah” I know that you know A way or some around a song I need a little more So why don’t share some with someone?

Let Me Stand 04:16
Yes, I know you baby Think of you as much as I can I can feel your voice And can’t get off my mind Girl I love you What is the color of truth? I know where you come from too Now you see the sky above Soon you’ll see the underground Movin’ on mad night Let me stand Somewhere in between the lines Everybody’s flying high Tell me, is this what you want? Nobody’s judging wrong Movin’ on mad night Let me stand What is the color of lies? The lie is the other side Hot in the summertime (hot fun!) Let me go ahead of time Movin’ on mad night Let me stand

There comes the hound dog And comes to bite you This is my war, yo! Declaration There comes the hound dog And comes to bite you My declaration Of intentions We have discussed it four hundred times And in the end for you I’m never right I would like to hear you just one truth And I will not be cruel It's a dead end road This will end at once I hear you always talk ‘bout Fear and hate, your only words You just treat others, like they’re fools Respect those who are like you! Now I’m gonna stop wasting my time If you’re not by my side It’s a dead end road This will end at once There comes the hound dog And comes to bite you This is my war, yo! Declaration There comes the hound dog And comes to bite you My declaration Of intentions

No Regrets 06:02
When the stars begin to shine Night calls the beast, am I one of them? Early in the morning I have to go my way I tell you my secrets and you send me to bed Every reason why I never think 'bout it Everyday is you When the boys go to hell They take the last train to nowhere Station to station I look for you Slowly we drift away from the old ways And the reason why I never think 'bout it Everyday is you Streets and fences right across the river With your arms around my neck Can almost knock down this four walls Let's get closer again and again Every reason why I never think 'bout it Everyday is you

Count On Me 04:00
Every time you feel you falter You surrender Every time you feel alone in your cause Every time you feel an injustice Abandonment Every time the world turns its back on you I can help you holding on, help you holding on To feel alright I can help you holding on, help you holding on And be your shoulder I can't take it any longer see you suffer To see you broken I can't take it any longer all this pain But believe me, I assure you something Lean on my shoulder Now close your eyes and let me be your hands No more leaders No more flags Gonna bury all our signs You need someone that knows your name We’ll make this path together till the end I can help you holding on, help you holding on To feel alright I can help you holding on, help you holding on And be your shoulder

Don't Tell 06:12
Don't tell your mother, father, brother Don't tell your mother, father, brother That's the way I feel, don't stop That's the way I feel can't stop it On and on and on That's the way I feel, don't stop That's the way I feel can't stop it On and on again

about

Let Me Stand is a blooming natural landscape of intricate flora and fauna sounds. Layer over layer of musical and motioning pleasure, diverse hints and influences and -above all this- an indisputed "savoir faire" when it comes to song writing. All this emerges as their -once again- best studio album so far. Outstanding vocal performances, both on lead, harmonies and textures. Dense yet thorough work on keyboards, outer space guitar solos, synths, effects and plenty of fantabulous gadgets and -as usual- a booming but somehow delicate rhythm section leads everything to its worthy place among Rock & Roll music; another master piece by this northern Spanish band.

"Let Me Stand" es un intrincado paisaje con las más hermosas variedades de árboles y la más exuberante fauna. Capas y capas de placer sonoro y sinérgico, muy variadas connotaciones e influencias y sobre todo un lapidario enfoque en las composiciones hacen que de nuevo nos encontremos hablando de su mejor disco hasta la fecha. Impresionante trabajo en las armonías vocales y las diferentes tesituras de la voz de Toño, denso y cuidado trabajo de teclas, solos de guitarra espaciales, sintes y multitud de cacharros fantásticos y por supuesto una aplastante sección rítmica, terminan por redondear otra obra maestra de The Soul Jacket.
