So, I’m going to try to go to a hellogoodbye concert October 24th. I know most of the songs off their album. Does anyone know what the setlist will be?
Also, the ticketmaster information says that the concert will have Hanson, hellogoodbye, and guests Steel Train & Sherwood? The only one I know is hellogoodbye, are the other bands in the same genre as them or what?
Thanks; (:

Dude you don’t know who Hanson is? Remember MMMbop? Well they have grown up a lot since then, and they are amazing. check them out. Sherwood is crappy in my own opinion, and I haven’t heard much of Steeltrain.

A video inspired by Rob Pattinson, the man and his music. “Let Me Sign” is written by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long. Arranged and performed by Rob Pattinson. For more information (New Music, Tour Dates, etc.) on Marcus Foster and Bobby Long as well as the “OFFICIAL” lyrics to the original song written can be found at their MySpace links below.

LYRICS: (from the original and edited for content)

Ohh
Ohh
Oh
She was standing there by
The broken tree
Her hands are all twisted
She’s pointing at me
I was damned by light comin’
Out of her eyes she
Spoke with a voice that
Disrupted the sky
She said walk on over here
To the bitter shade
I will wrap you in my arms
And you’ll know you’ve been saved
Let me sign
Let me sign

Note: As mentioned in the above discription, this video features Rob Pattinson THE MAN and his music, not the character he portrays. Rob was doing music way before Twilight. (’I have been playing the piano for my entire life –since I was three or four and I used to play classical guitar from when I was about five to twelve years of age. Then I didn’t play guitar for years. About four or five years ago, I got out the guitar again and just started playing blues and stuff’. ~ Quote taken from “The Robert Pattinson Album” a biography by Paul Stenning.) His voice is reminiscent of the likes of Van Morrison and Jeff Buckley (two of his favorite artists), hence his raw, bluesy, folksy sound. Rob has a very soulful voice that touches you deep within….you can really feel it in this song….it gives me chills. I selected pictures of him not smiling, somber,….he looks like he has a lot on his mind. As far as the pictures of him smoking (don’t judge!)…..it just fit the mood of the song or at least my interpretation of it. I imagined him at the beginning where you hear this gritty guitar chord, having a smoke out back to take the edge off, before going on stage to perform and of course having one to relax after performing. He looks so James Dean.

Check out Rob’s other songs on YouTube. He has been recorded (unknowingly) singing in some clubs. Look for the following songs; “I Was Broken”, “I’ll Be Your Lover Too”, “To Roam”, “Stray Dog”, “In Your Head” and an almost full live version of “Let Me Sign”. Some recordings are clearer than others. My favorite is “I Was Broken”, he sings it with so much heart and soul!

As you may know, this bit was recorded specifically to be used for a scene (ballet studio) in the movie “Twilight”. However, it was not included on the soundtrack (or at least not the one that I purchased). My guess is that this may have been due to the track being so short and only having one verse performed. But again this is only speculation. I don’t think they knew at the time how powerfully moving this brief song would come to be. There is no longer studio version at this time. I hope someday Rob will be able to re record this song in it’s entirety. Truly poetically beautiful!

What does the song mean? Interpretations are subjective, but here is some food for thought. My take is that a person is so enamored with another that they would “sign” their soul over to the devil just to be with the object of their desires even if for just one night.

*************************************************************************
The following are the official lyrics to the original song written by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long and can be found on their respective MySpace pages.

She was standing there by the broken tree
Her hands were all twisted she was pointing at me
I was damned by the light coming out of her eyes
She spoke with a voice that disrupted the sky
She said ‘ Come on over to the bitter shade,
I will wrap you in my arms
and you’ll know you’ve been saved’
Let me sign, let me sign,
can’t fight the devil so just let me sign.

I was out for a drink in a soho bar
The air was smoked out liked a cheap cigar
She rose out of her seat like a painted ghost
She was the woman that I wanted the most
As she reached for my arm I gave her my hand
I said ‘Lay me down easy let me understand’
Let me sign, let me sign,
can’t fight the devil so just let me sign.

As I walked through the door
she was still in my head
As I entered the room she was laid there in bed
She reached out for me all twisted in black
I was on my way down, never coming back
let me sign, let me sign,
can’t fight the devil so just let me sign.
let me sign, let me sign,
can’t fight the devil so just let me sign.
