Way Up

from IN PLAIN SIGHT by Chris Fox

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    IN PLAIN SIGHT is the eagerly awaited new album release from singer songwriter Chris Fox. With plenty of time on his hands during the lockdown of 2020 he wrote this album with the express intention of not writing about himself or his feelings. So, he sat down and diligently wrote a collection of songs…… all about himself and his feelings. Here you will find ten original songs painted on a musical backdrop of Folk and Roots, Americana, Country, Blues and contemporary Transatlantic Folk. Musical Influences (to name a few) range from the Mavericks, Paul Simon, John Martyn, Transatlantic Sessions and Willie Nelson. The album features Holly Brandon on fiddle (The Magpies, Painted Sky) and John Parker on Double Bass (Nizlopi, The Willows, Jackie Oates) and was produced and recorded by Dan Wilde at Gladeside Recordings. This album reflects the thoughts, fears and joys of the everyday inspired by a multitude of events and characters that activate his surreal and somewhat feverish imagination.

about

Becoming a songwriter and learning the art of performance has given my life an identity and direction I never imagined. Music takes me ‘Way Up’ and I invite you to sing along in reference to the things that make you happy and take you Way Up High.

lyrics

Way up, way up, way up, way up
When I’m lonely and feeling confused
Spent all my money chasing the blues
When I’m falling, falling down on my luck
Well you always catch me and its always enough

You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
you take me way up

When I’m jaded and down at the heel
Searching and searching for how to feel
When I’m tired, and I can’t get to sleep
Well you always knock me, knock me right off my feet

You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
you take me way up

When I’m homesick, with no place to go
And all of my efforts left me nothing to show
When I’m broken and the pieces are gone
you bring me together, melt me back into one


Don’t forsake me anytime soon
Always needing and believing in you

You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
you take me way up

When I’m lonely and feeling confused
Spent all my money chasing the blues
When I’m tired, And I can’t get to sleep
Well you always knock me, knock me right off my feet

You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
You take me way up, way up high
you take me way up
