you make stealing hearts look so easy
seems like you’ve done this before
you’ve got breaking up all but down
and i can’t love a thief anymore

you make breaking hearts look so easy
seems like you have done this before
you’ve got breaking hearts all but down
have you done this you’ve done this before

the best you could ever hope to be
is now just a bitter sweet symphony
and now you make breaking hearts look so easy

~ANBERLIN

I’m desperately awaiting the release of Anberlin’s new record, New Surrender (September 30th). I watched the live acoustic video of their first ever performance of Bittersweet Memory (one of their new songs) on YouTube, and I just couldn’t help but watch the video over and over… and over again (Stephen Christian’s voice is just beyond incredible; I could listen to his voice forever, seriously). Although I am slightly jealous of all those people in Seattle that got the very first listen; I’m so glad to know that Anberlin’s change of record label and record producers hasn’t tarnished their ability to make absolutely amazing music. Even with that, I had a sudden “freak-out” when I found out that Stephen’s laptop was stolen earlier this year; so I’m glad everything is on track for Anberlin. As for the record, New Surrender, I’m pretty certain it’s going to be absolutely amazing, and I really hope they’ll be coming back to Australia to tour again; because frankly, I miss them, and I often wish I was back at the Corner Hotel listening to Stephen Christian sing The Unwinding Cable Car. So as I snap out of my little dream, New Surrender, Anberlin’s new record comes out September 30th. I can’t wait!

Goodbye and take care.
