今天在書店聽到就覺得這首很特別(當然，這一整張都超讚的……)
歌詞就像水管下面的評論說的
This song gives me shivers.
稍微查了一下這首歌的背景
If You Could See Me Now pays tribute to Danny's beloved late father Shay,
also a musician, who died unexpectedly of a stomach aneurysm, and Mark's
late parents — his mother died four months before Danny's dad and he'd
lost his father when he was aged just 14.
Mark says: "We're quite happy lads in real life but we just vent everything
in our music. We wear our hearts on our sleeves and put everything into our
music.
"If You Could See Me Now is the first time we've rinsed ourselves that
deeply. There's been a lot bottled up and we felt there was a hole in the
album and we weren't being honest enough until this song.
"We really hit the whiskies one night, that was the catalyst. We were very
emotional and wrote a song about this — Danny one end of the room, me at
another.
"It was a tough one to write and I didn't want anyone to listen to it at
first, if I'm honest. But that's what we're in music for — that honest
emotion. I'm so proud of that song."
簡而言之，
大概是說這是兩位主唱獻給已逝世親人──Danny的父親死於胃動脈瘤，而Mark的雙親也
是先後在他14歲的時候辭世──的一首歌，兩人首次於歌曲中相當程度的剖析、面對自
己，並且用這首歌豐富了整張專輯。
Mark也提到，其實一開始是不想讓其他人聽到這份作品的，但「真實的情緒」就是他們
在音樂方面所追求的，所以還是相當以這首歌為傲。
……
我自己是覺得，理解背後的故事之後，看歌詞會特別有感觸
總之，希望大家也會喜歡這首歌:)
