Foxxhound is set to release their third and most ambitious album, The Devil You Know, on June 25th, 2013. The record was produced by Anthony Arvizu (Elliott Smith, Ryan Adams, Paul McCartney) and mastered at Capital Records by Kevin Barley. For Daniel, The Devil You Know was about “letting go and inviting more people in.” The band did this in a literal sense by adding drummer Ron McGill, redefining Foxxhound as a trio and giving them the opportunity to add another dimension to their ever-evolving sound.
Love Don't You Forget About Me
Foxxhound Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause there are so many, so many ways to feel alone, and I would know
Casualties of drunken revelries, how they turn into Sunday morn
Giving her all my might on a lonely Saturday night
So love please don't you forget about me
Oh love, don't you forget about me
Yea love, please forgive me
A girl named Alex told me once, what's the point in hanging on
When this world that we live in is so full of wrong
I told her love is the reason, it's the greatest healer
Turn an atheist into a believer
Cause for so long I tried to deny its existence, I was a fool
So love please don't you forget about me
Oh love, don't you forget about me
Yea love, please forgive me
I've been trying my whole wretched life
Only to find to my surprise, you're the reason why oh why
My heart's about to burst, I wanta exonerate the heart
Yea there are so many, so many ways to feel alone, and I would know
Casualties of drunken revelries, how they turn into Sunday morn
Giving her all my might on a lonely Saturday night
So love please don't you forget about me
Oh love, don't you forget about me
Oh love, please forgive me
