-------------------------------------------
1) Headstrong is a Canadian alternative metal band formed in 1998. They released one eponymous studio album under RCA Records before being dropped from the label and ultimately disbanding in 2003. The band members all met while attending University of Western Ontario where they each a received a degree. Their group initially began in the late 1990s under the name bomb32 in their native London, Ontario. Comparable to acts such as 311, Stone Temple Pilots, and Helmet, they used the popular of Farmclub to promote their music.
The strength of their first single, "All of the Above," earned Headstrong over a million votes from fans of the television show's site. They became Farmclub's first international guest and were granted a performance at LA's Farmclub stage in the summer of 2000. While there, they shared the stage with the likes of Kid Rock and Eminem and caught the attention of David Bendeth, senior vice-president of A&R, who signed them afterwards.[1] Headstrong then made their live United States debut at the CMJ Music Marathon on October 12 at Don Hills, New York.
Thanks to their booking agents S.L. Feldman & Associates, Headstrong then embarked on a Canadian tour with fellow Canadians Flybanger starting in November 2001.[2] On February 19, 2002, they released their self-titled debut under RCA. Headstrong managed to find success with its single "Adriana," which reached #15 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks and had a music video. However, problems began erupting within the following months.
In late July, Headstrong was pulled from touring with Tommy Lee in a decision reportedly made by RCA to end the band's tour support. By this time, Headstrong had also been believed to be writing and demoing new material which would possibly be showcased in their forthcoming fall concerts. However, in August, a mere six months after their debut album's release, Headstrong was dropped by RCA.[3]
The following year in late April, Headstrong decided to split up, citing disillusionment with the record label as one reason.
2) Don Jackson (Headstrong) is a English electronic music producer, song writer and musician. He has worked with several of the top vocal trance singers including Kirsty Hawkshaw, Andrea Britton, and Tiff Lacey.

Headstrong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Have faith in what you feel
Just close your eyes
And wake to what is real
Feeling electrified
It's sensual appeal
Just close your eyes and all will be revealed
All will be revealed
Just close your eyes
Have faith in what you feel
Just close your eyes
And wake to what is real
Feeling electrified
It's sensual appeal
Just close your eyes and all will be revealed
All will be revealed
[Chorus]
Just close your eyes
Just close your eyes
Just close your eyes
[Chorus]
I feel it what you feel
I feel it what you feel
I feel it what you feel
I feel it what you feel
[Chorus: x3]
I feel it what you feel
I feel it what you feel
[Chorus]
I feel it what you feel
Just close your eyes

The lyrics to "Close Your Eyes" by Headstrong feat. Tiff Lacey express the idea of letting go and relying on your instincts and intuition. The repeated phrase "Just close your eyes" is a call to keep yourself in the moment and trust your feelings. The lyrics suggest that there is a tangible, sensual feeling that can be experienced when you let go of your doubts and give in to your emotions. The lines "Feeling electrified, it's sensual appeal" emphasize the idea that what you feel physically can be just as important as what you feel emotionally.
The repeated use of the phrase "all will be revealed" suggests that by surrendering to our senses, we can discover something deeper and more meaningful. The song seems to encourage listeners to let go of their rational minds and trust their emotions instead. By doing so, the lyrics suggest that one can discover a greater truth or sense of self-awareness. This message is reinforced by the repetition of "I feel it what you feel" throughout the song, suggesting that there is a universal aspect to these emotions and that we all share similar experiences.
