In June 1998, McFadden auditioned for the new Irish male band (at the time), Westlife with Nicky Byrne and eventually both joined the group alongside Kian Egan, Mark Feehily and Shane Filan. McFadden left Westlife in March 2004 to spend more time with his family - he was married with two children to ex-Atomic Kitten's Kerry Katona - and to work on solo projects.
Following his departure from Westlife, McFadden released his debut solo album, Irish Son which peaked within the top 5 on both the Denmark and Ireland Albums Charts, and produced his first two No. 1 solo singles "Real to Me" in four European countries and also "Almost Here", a duet with his fiancée Delta Goodrem which gained a platinum accreditation in Australia. "Like Only a Woman Can", the lead single from his second album, Set in Stone (2008), became his third No. 1 single as a solo artist. In 2010, McFadden scored his fourth No. 1 with the hit single, "Just Say So" featuring American rapper, Kevin Rudolf and gained his second Australian platinum accreditation. The single received a nomination at the 2010 ARIA Music Awards for Most Popular Australian Single.
Following the release of "Just Say So", McFadden release his third studio album, Wall Of Soundz in Australia on 23 April, 2010. The album was originally going to be released as a side-project McFadden embarked on with American songwriter Rob Conley but both decided to release it as McFadden's third solo album. It debuted at No. 27 on the ARIA Albums Chart and spent only three weeks in the ARIA top 50. "Chemical Rush" was the second single released from the album in June 2010 and peaked at No. 12 on the charts. In September 2010, McFadden released the third single titled, "Mistakes", a duet with his fiancé Delta Goodrem.
On 25th February 2011, McFadden released a new single "Just The Way You Are (Drunk at the Bar)".
Everybody's Someone
Brian McFadden Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get up, go out, come back again
Same old same old
A thousand faces pass you by
You never look into there eyes
You feel so ordinary
They feel so ordinary
Hey everybody's someone
No matter where you come from
There's light in every single star
You're more than who you think you are
Hey everybody's someone
And when it's hard to hold on
Remember you are not alone
This house is everybody's home
And every day we seem to chase
The perfect smile the perfect face
Same old same old
For every one who gets to shine
A million more are left behind
They feel so ordinary
You feel so ordinary
Hey everybody's someone
No matter where you come from
There's light in every single star
You're more than who you think you are
Hey everybody's someone
And when it's hard to hold on
Remember you are not alone
This house is everybody's home
From a king to a common man
We're all part of a greater plan
There's light in every single star
You're more than who you think you are
Hey everybody's someone
And when it's hard to hold on
Remember you are not alone
This house is everybody's home
The lyrics to Brian McFadden's song "Everybody's Someone" encourage listeners to remember that everyone is unique and has value. The first verse, "And every day begins the same, get up, go out, come back again, same old same old," sets the tone for the mundane routine that everyone experiences. However, despite feeling ordinary, the chorus declares that everyone is special and important, "Hey everybody's someone, no matter where you come from, there's light in every single star, you're more than who you think you are." The song conveys the message that everyone has worth, and that there is more to each person than meets the eye.
The second verse, "And every day we seem to chase, the perfect smile, the perfect face, same old same old," highlights society's pressure to be perfect and fit a certain mold. But the following lines remind us that for every person who is successful and admired, there are millions more who feel "left behind" and ordinary. The bridge, "From a king to a common man, we're all part of a greater plan" emphasizes that everyone is equal and important, despite their background or position in life. The chorus repeats the message that everyone is someone, and that they should never forget their value.
Overall, the lyrics to "Everybody's Someone" promote self-acceptance, self-love, and unity among all people. It encourages listeners to recognize the value and light within themselves, and to extend the same kindness and empathy to others.
Line by Line Meaning
And every day begins the same
Each day starts with a mundane routine
Get up, go out, come back again
Wake up, leave the house, and return without any excitement
Same old same old
Repeated and unchanging
A thousand faces pass you by
Numerous people cross paths with you
You never look into there eyes
You never make eye contact with them
You feel so ordinary
You feel unremarkable
They feel so ordinary
Others may also feel the same way
Hey everybody's someone
Everyone has value and worth
No matter where you come from
A person's background doesn't diminish their importance
There's light in every single star
Each person shines in their own way
You're more than who you think you are
You are greater than your own self-perception
And when it's hard to hold on
During times of struggle
Remember you are not alone
You have support and companionship
This house is everybody's home
We are all part of something bigger, and we belong here
And every day we seem to chase
We often pursue an impossible ideal
The perfect smile the perfect face
Trying to attain a flawless image of ourselves
For every one who gets to shine
The few who excel and stand out
A million more are left behind
Many more who are overlooked and ignored
From a king to a common man
No matter how high or low one's status is
We're all part of a greater plan
We are interconnected and have a purpose beyond ourselves
