2009 saw Aranda’s single, “Still in the Dark,” break into the top 30 on the Active Rock chart.
That same year, American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson hand-picked two Aranda songs to cover on her album, All I Ever Wanted — including the high-energy in-your-face song of rebellion, “Whyyawannabringmedown” and, “All I Ever Wanted,” which became the title track for Clarkson’s album. Also, in 2009, Aranda’s “Whyyawannabringmedown” was selected by the WWE as the theme song for the pay-per-view event, The Bash.
Clarkson’s covers reinforced to the band that their music has an audience if given the proper chance. Aranda released a deluxe edition of their 2008 self-titled debut album, which included live tracks and a radio mix of “Whyyawannabringmedown,” along with a DVD of their wall-shaking album release show, Aranda: Live From OKC.
Dameon and Gabe have shared the stage with many of the biggest names in rock performing with hit bands such as Papa Roach, Saving Abel, Stone Temple Pilots, Shinedown, Staind, Sick Puppies, The All American Rejects, Rev Theory, Saliva, Puddle of Mudd, Theory of a Deadman, Halestorm and Black Stone Cherry. With the brothers’ airtight harmonies and passionate onstage performances, Aranda’s live show is unforgettable.
“We want to create high energy, keep rocking, keep everybody entertained. We want to involve the audience and make it fun for them,” Dameon says. “Our hope is that you’ll keep coming back for more.”
Aranda joined Saving Abel in the summer of 2012, on a nationwide tour with special guest Redlight King. The tour included stops in major markets throughout the U.S. In August 2012, Aranda supported Theory of a Deadman on several tour dates, including stops at The Knitting Factory in Boise, ID, Spokane, WA and Reno, NV. Currently they are on the road with Daughtry and 3 Doors Down.
Wind-up Records released Aranda's second studio album, Stop the World, on October 16th, 2012, which was Produced by Grammy-nominated Producer, Johnny K., (Disturbed, Sevendust, Staind, Drowning Pool). Stop the Worldhas already yielded three national radio hits — “Undone," peaking at #26 on the Active Rock chart and “Satisfied,” which peaked at #14 on the Active Rock chart. The latest single “One More Lie” is currently climbing the Active Rock charts.
Hey Sally
Aranda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You went downtown, mess around thinking that you could never lose
But the weight of all your lies left you cold
Hey Sally what's your next move?
You took a couple wrong turns baby cause you never really had a clue
That the road you're going down, you walk alone
And you'll never know you can turn around
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
You've been looking round, but you never found
The love you needed for so long
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
Hey Sally, I know just how you feel
You know where you want to go baby but you never want to take the wheel
But you're wasting all your time looking back
And the only way to get there is for you to understand
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
You've been looking round, but you never found
The love you needed for so long
Oh Sally, Sally come home
I'm not there to tell you pride comes before the fall
But if you don't go, you don't go back, you could lose it all
Hey Sally, you're nobody's fool
And no matter what they say you know I still got faith in you
I still have faith in you
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
You've been looking round, but you never found
The love you needed for so long
Oh Sally, Sally come home
Oh, come home tonight

Line by Line Meaning
Hey Sally, what's the matter with you
Asking Sally about what is troubling her
You went downtown, mess around thinking that you could never lose
Sally was carefree during her night out, unaware of the consequences
But the weight of all your lies left you cold
Sally's lies have made her feel empty inside
Hey Sally what's your next move?
Enquiring about Sally's future actions
You took a couple wrong turns baby cause you never really had a clue
Sally has made mistakes due to her unawareness
That the road you're going down, you walk alone
Sally is on a solitary path at the moment
And you'll never know you can turn around
Sally is currently unaware of the options available to her
Till someone tells you so
Sally will need some guidance in order to move in a better direction
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Encouraging Sally to keep going despite life's difficulties
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
Asking Sally to question her own values
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
Urging Sally to return to a place of safety and love
You've been looking round, but you never found the love you needed for so long
Sally has been searching for love, but hasn't found it yet
Hey Sally, I know just how you feel
Empathizing with Sally's emotions
You know where you want to go baby but you never want to take the wheel
Sally knows her goals but is reluctant to take control and pursue them
But you're wasting all your time looking back
Sally is dwelling on the past instead of moving forward
And the only way to get there is for you to understand
The only way Sally can reach her goals is by gaining a deeper understanding
I'm not there to tell you pride comes before the fall
Not being present to remind Sally of the consequences of prideful behavior
But if you don't go, you don't go back, you could lose it all
Encouraging Sally to take risks, or face the possibility of missing out on everything
Hey Sally, you're nobody's fool
Reminding Sally of her intelligence and strength
And no matter what they say you know I still got faith in you
Showing support for Sally, despite criticism from others
Oh, come home tonight
Repeated urging for Sally to return home

ARANDA (2012) – SALLY (Traducción)
Hey Sally, whats the matter with you
Eh Sally, ¿qué pasa contigo?
You went downtown, mess around thinking that you could never lose
Te fuiste al centro de la ciudad, hiciste el tonto creyendo que nunca podrías perder
But the weight of all your lies left you cold
Pero el peso de todas tus mentiras te dejó indiferente
Hey Sally whats your next move?
Eh Sally, y ahora ¿qué?
You took a couple wrong turns baby cause you never really had a clue
Tomaste un par de malas decisiones, nena, porque en realidad nunca tuviste ni idea
That the road you're going down, you walk alone
Del camino que estabas tomando, caminas sola
And you'll never know you can turn around
Y nunca sabrás que puedes cambiar
Till someone tells you so
Hasta que alguien te lo diga
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Tienes que ponerte en pie, cuando caigas
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
O ¿vas a defender lo que sabes que está mal?
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
Oh Sally, Sally ven a casa esta noche
You've been looking round, but you never found
Has estado buscando, pero nunca encontraste
The love you needed for so long
El amor que necesitaste durante tanto tiempo
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
Oh Sally, Sally ven a casa esta noche
Hey Sally, I know just how you feel
Eh Sally, sé justo cómo te sientes
You know where you want to go baby but you never want to take the wheel
Sabes dónde quieres llegar nena, pero nunca quieres tomar las riendas
But you're wasting all your time looking back
Pero estás malgastando todo tu tiempo mirando atrás
And the only way to get there is for you to understand
Y la única manera de que lo logres es que lo entiendas
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Tienes que ponerte en pie, cuando caigas
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
O ¿vas a defender lo que sabes que está mal?
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
Oh Sally, Sally ven a casa esta noche
You've been looking round, but you never found
Has estado buscando, pero nunca encontraste
The love you needed for so long
El amor que necesitaste durante tanto tiempo
Oh Sally, Sally come home
Oh Sally, Sally ven a casa
I'm not there to tell you pride comes before the fall
No estoy aquí para decirte que el orgullo precede a la caída
But if you don't go, you don't go back, you could lose it all
Pero si no, no regresas, podrías perderlo todo
MMMMM MM MMMMM MMMM...
mmmmm mm mmmmm mmmm...
Hey Sally, you're nobody's fool
Eh Sally, no eres ninguna tonta
And no matter what they say you know I still got faith in you
Y no importa lo que te dijeran, sabes que aún tengo fe en ti
I still have faith in you
Aún tengo fe en ti
You gotta stand up, when you fall down
Tienes que ponerte en pie, cuando caigas
Or do you stand for what you know is wrong
O ¿vas a defender lo que sabes que está mal?
Oh Sally, Sally come home tonight
Oh Sally, Sally ven a casa esta noche
You've been looking round, but you never found
Has estado buscando, pero nunca encontraste
The love you needed for so long
El amor que necesitaste durante tanto tiempo
Oh Sally, Sally come home
Oh Sally, Sally ven a casa
OOOOOOO, come home tonight
OOOOOOO, ven a casa esta noche
