Grammer started as a busker on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica and later performed in the Viper Room, the Roxy Theatre (West Hollywood) and the House of Blues. Grammer perfected his writing skills as an artist whilst performing on the streets and according to the Keep Your Head Up Songfacts he wrote the song to raise his own spirits after a particularly long day.
His debut video for "Keep Your Head Up" (starring Rainn Wilson) was an iTunes video of the week in 2010, and the version on the artist's site uses an interactive interface that allows the viewer to "send the singer into goofy scenarios". He performed the song on The Rachael Ray Show on November 17, 2010. He is currently opening for Plain White T's for the second leg of their "Wonders of the Younger" tour.
In January 2011, he was named an "Artist to Watch" by Billboard magazine.
He performed at SXSW 2011, playing BMI's Acoustic Brunch, where he was one of the artists contributing to a recording produced by Hanson to benefit the victims of the 2011 Japan earthquake.
His "Keep Your Head Up" video was nominated for MTV's O Music Award for Most Innovative Music Video in April 2011
Fresh Eyes
Andy Grammer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My God, you're beautiful
It's like the first time when we open the door
Before we got used to usual
It might seem superficial, stereotypical, man
You dress up just a little and I'm like, "Oh, damn"
I can't believe that she's mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger
I can't believe that she's mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
Appreciation, well, it comes and it goes
But I, I'll ride that wave with you
It's human nature to miss what's under your nose
'Til you, 'til you remind a fool
Maybe all of this is simple
My heart's unconditional, yeah
You dress up just a little and I'm like, "Oh, damn"
So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger
I can't believe that she's mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger
I can't believe that she's mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
If I could bottle this up, bottle, bottle this up, I would
I would bottle this up, bottle, bottle this up, I would
'Cause you're gorgeous in this moment
If I could bottle this up, I would
So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger
I can't believe that she's mine
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger
I can't believe that she's mine, yeah
And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
The lyrics to Andy Grammer's song "Fresh Eyes" express a newfound appreciation for a romantic partner. The singer describes how seeing their partner in a fresh light, as if for the first time, has moved him to fall in love all over again. The opening lines, "I got these fresh eyes, never seen you before like this / My God, you're beautiful," indicate that the singer is experiencing a sudden, intense attraction to their partner's physical appearance.
The lyrics go on to suggest that this newfound appreciation is not just based on looks, but on a deeper recognition of the partner's value. The singer acknowledges that it's easy to take things for granted ("It's human nature to miss what's under your nose"), but expresses a desire to appreciate their partner more fully, saying "I'll ride that wave with you." In the chorus, the singer repeats the sentiment that seeing their partner with fresh eyes has led them to fall in love, saying "So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger / I can't believe that she's mine / And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes."
Overall, "Fresh Eyes" is a song about appreciating the people we love and seeing them in a new light. It encourages listeners to take a step back and look at their partners, friends, and family members with fresh eyes, and to recognize the beauty and value that can be found there.

I got these fresh eyes, never seen you before like this
I am experiencing a new appreciation for you that I haven't felt before
My God, you're beautiful
You are incredibly stunning and breathtaking to me
It's like the first time when we open the door
It's like seeing something for the first time, when everything is new and exciting
Before we got used to usual
Before we became fixated on routine and familiarity
It might seem superficial, stereotypical, man
I know it might come off as shallow or unoriginal
You dress up just a little and I'm like, "Oh, damn"
But even a small effort on your part to look good catches my eye and makes me feel attracted to you
So suddenly I'm in love with a stranger
I instantly feel love for you, even though I may not fully know or understand you
I can't believe that she's mine
I feel grateful and fortunate to have you in my life
Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes
I now view you with a new perspective, noticing all of your best qualities
Appreciation, well, it comes and it goes
It's easy for us to take things for granted, even good things
But I, I'll ride that wave with you
But I will make an effort to appreciate you and stay in this moment with you
It's human nature to miss what's under your nose
We often overlook or fail to appreciate what is right in front of us
'Til you, 'til you remind a fool
Until someone points it out to us or reminds us of what we have
Maybe all of this is simple
Perhaps this newfound love and appreciation is straightforward and uncomplicated
My heart's unconditional, yeah
My love is unwavering and steadfast
If I could bottle this up, bottle, bottle this up, I would
If I could preserve this feeling forever, I would
'Cause you're gorgeous in this moment
You are absolutely stunning and breathtaking right now

@miobrave
I made a parody. It's what the girl thinks when she catches him staring.
Please enjoy! Here:
You got these fresh eyes
Never seen me before like this
You're just adorable
It's like the first time
I caught you staring at me back when
We were just friends you see
It may seem sort of silly
Unbelievable yeah
But I blush just a little
When you say “Oh damn”
So, suddenly
We're kids all over again
It puts me in awe every time
That you always see me
With fresh eyes fresh eyes
So, suddenly
We're kids all over again
It puts me in awe every time
That you always see me
With fresh eyes fresh eyes
Appreciation, well it comes and it goes
But not, no not for us you see
It's human nature to say things over again
But I, I'm so in love with you
Baby, all of this is simple
Our hearts are unconditional
And, I blush just a little
When you say “Oh damn”
So, suddenly
We're kids all over again
It puts me in awe every time
That you always see me
With fresh eyes fresh eyes
So, suddenly
We're kids all over again
It puts me in awe every time
