"Committed" a four pieced acoustic rock band from the Lake Ray Hubbard area of Dallas, Texas was formed by two young men Austin Bello and Caleb Turman who began playing guitar together at the age of 12. Not long after coming together the duo discovered that they had a knack for writing music. The group was later rounded out when they found two others who shared their passion for acoustic music; enter Drew Beilman, the band's bass player and Johnny McAnally, the drummer. In a short period of time Committed had developed their own music flavor that was influenced greatly by the artist/bands "Dashboard Confessional" and "Dave Matthews". On any given weekend you will find "Committed" playing their stylized acoustic rhythms they labeled (acoustic emo) at numerous venues in the North Texas area. Here are a few of the many favorable comments from club operators where they have performed. "Commited makes great post-punk, acoustic based rock that really fills the room. Passionate live performances really give the audience a euphoric high; the audience leaves with a tangible comfort and happiness every time they play." - The Door / Dallas, Texas "We recently had the band Committed play at our club and found them to be a very creative, high energy acoustic rock band. They brought a lot of enthusiasm and audience participation to the venue that night and we all had a great time. Great music and great people is what we're all about and the band Committed represented our venue well." - The Ice House / Rockwall, Texas "They display a genuine love of life and sing in such a way that they are sure to make a favorable impression. After their first performance they became an instant favorite at our park, and repeat performances were in great demand." - Hawaiian Falls Adventure Park / Garland, Texas.
Caleb Turman & Austin Bello are now part of Forever The Sickest Kids

Committed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I′ll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
That I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky---ALWAYS
Until the ocean covers every mountain high---ALWAYS
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea---ALWAYS
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I′ll be loving you always
As today I know I′m living but tomorrow
Could make me the past but that I mustn't fear
For I′ll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind Cause I′ll be loving you always
Until the day is night and night becomes the day---ALWAYS
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away---ALWAYS
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4---ALWAYS
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Did you know that you're loved by somebody?
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left---ALWAYS
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
I′ll be loving you forever
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through---ALWAYS
Until the day that you are me and I am you---AL WA AA AA Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky AA AA AA AA YS ALWAYS
We all know sometimes lifes hates and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet you life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children′s grandchildren
And their great-great grandchildren will tell
I′ll be loving you
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky--Loving you
Until the ocean covers every mountain high--Loving you
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea--Loving you
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream--Be loving you
Until the day is night and night becomes the day--Loving you
Until the trees and seas up, up and fly away--Loving you
Until the day that 8x8x8x8 is 4--Loving you
Until the day that is the day that are no more--Loving you
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left--Be loving you
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself--Loving you
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through--Loving you
Until the day that you are me and I am you--
Now ain't that loving you
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Ain′t that loving you
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
And I've got to say always
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea AL WA AYS
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream-Um AL WA AYS
Until the day is night and night becomes the day-AL WA AYS
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away-AL WA AA Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4 AA AA AA
Until the day that is the day that are no more-AA AA AA AYS
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left-AL WA A AA
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself- AA AA AA AYS
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through-AL WAYS
Until the day that you are me and I am you
Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8x8x8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
"As" by Committed is a song about an unwavering love that will never fade. The lyrics use metaphorical expressions to beautifully explain that as the earth revolves around the sun, just as rosebuds know to bloom in early May, hate knows that love is the cure, he will always love his partner. It emphasizes that no one knows what tomorrow brings but we could grow older day by day, we should be kind to one another and should never be afraid of the past. The singer expresses his love to his partner in several verses of the song by using surreal comparisons such as until the ocean covers every mountain high, or until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea; all of which signifies the everlasting nature of his love.
The song is a beautiful love letter that is meant to touch the hearts of anyone that listens to it. The lyrics seem to convey a sense of hope and trust that make the listener feel optimistic and inspired. It reminds us that even though life can be tough, having someone to love and being loved is a blessing that should never be forsaken. Through the song, Committed wonderfully communicated the feelings of love with a subtle message of hope and positivity.
