What Came Over Me

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

After taking some advice to learn meditation from a suburban guru I took a short and stressful look at my own mind. The results taught me one thing, ‘Don’t go looking for trouble and write more songs’…

lyrics

Somedays I’m up and its plain sailing
Other days I am struggling to breath
What comes over me, well I’ve never really known
Somedays I’m fighting for a future
Other days I’m struggling for a hold
What comes over me, well I’m failing to see
Oh I’ve tried and I’ve tried
Ive been through it all so many different times
I’m trying to believe one of those days
could show me where I’m meant to be
Yesterday I got busy with my future
Yesterday I was planning for today
What came over me, I couldn’t really say
Yesterday I went looking for the answers
Answers that I already know
What came over me, well there’s a question in my soul
Oh I’ve tried and I’ve tried
I work hard To keep tomorrow in my mind
I’m trying to believe that another day could be the one that sets me fre
Oh I’ve tried and I’ve tried
To clear out all the shadows in my mind
I’m trying to believe that all these things should not be happening to me

Right now I’m living in the present,
Right now I haven’t got a clue
What’s come over me, Well I’m sharing it with you
What’s come over me, Well I’m sharing it with you
