In a recent blog, Sugg posted said the following to better describe the project: "Many will ask, isn't this just the same as your other music project, Backseat Goodbye, since it's just you? The answer is, yes and no. Yes, this is just me, but it's a completely different musical project, aimed at a completely different musical genre. For now, this will be a passion project for songs that are very stripped down, with just my voice and an acoustic guitar for the most part (whereas, Backseat Goodbye, is still acoustic, but there's more of a full band tinge there with full backing instruments.)
Backseat Goodbye will still by far be my main focus. I just write a lot of songs, and I've wanted to release a low-key, acoustic album for a while now, but that's just not the direction Backseat Goodbye is headed... Hence my decision for doing this.
Also, I was going to wait a while to do this, but since there's nothing really holding me down right now (right now I've still got a good month or two still before I even head out to record the next BG album) I've decided on a whim to finish writing and recording these, what I call "slow pretty song, focused on lyrics and layed back guitar" songs, and release them.
So, feel free to add this page and keep up with it all here. I literally have nothing recorded for this other than demos right now, but I think I can finish writing all the pieces of songs I've had in mind for this, and get them recorded and ready for a full length album release within the next couple weeks. I'll try my best to have a song up for you to hear the direction I'll be taking this project within the next few days. Especially since there's about to be a winter storm here in Tennessee, and I won't have any want or need to go outside anyway... Why not just lock myself in a room and get some recording done?
I don't really know my full ambitions for this project yet, but it feels right even typing this to let it be known I've wanted to do something like this."
Right Here
Chad Sugg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're cool man, we're young
We don't wanna look back now
That song's already been sung
Yeah, take it all in stride
Baby come on, you know it's alright
We've got everything everything we've ever ever needed
Right here, right here, right here
Yeah, we don't wait
For no one
We set fire to the past we made
With the glow of the morning sun
We got bored with the lie
Baby come on, we ain't never ever ever gonna die
We've got everything everything we've ever ever needed
Right here, right here, right here
Right here, right here, right here
Yeah, we are alive
The last of a dying kind
We got friends man, lots of friends
We got plans man, lots of plans
We got friends man, lots of friends
We got plans, man
, lots of plans

The line, "That song's already been sung" implies that they've learned from their past and are ready to move forward without repeating past mistakes.
The chorus emphasizes the current moment, with the repeated phrase "Right here" emphasizing the importance of being present in the moment. The singer encourages his significant other to take everything in stride and not to worry about the future because they already have everything they need in the present moment.
The second verse continues the theme of rejecting the past, with the line "We set fire to the past we made with the glow of the morning sun." They acknowledge that they got bored with their former lives and are now living fully. The final lines of the song convey a palpable sense of youthful vitality, with the lines "We are alive, the last of the dying kind." The singer and his friends have a lot of plans and people in their lives and are determined to make the most of the time they have.

Your voice is so comforting, so calm but at the same time it makes me wanna dance. If I had to go to a deserted island all I'd want with me would be you and your guitar.
