(1) IVY is a New York City band comprised of a trio of musicians - Adam Schlesinger, Dominique Durand and Andy Chase.
Formed in 1990, IVY gained wider recognition in 2003/2004 for their song "Worry About You" which has been used as the theme song of the Stephen King series Kingdom Hospital and in the pilot episode of the television mini-series The 4400.
IVY produced the score for the movie Shallow Hal (2001) and their song "Edge of the Ocean" was used in the movie. Their music has been featured in other movies, including There's Something About Mary, Orange County and television series, including an episode of Roswell and the song "Worry About You" was used as the themesong for Stephen King's Kingdom Hospital. In 2005, "Edge of the Ocean" was also used on Grey's Anatomy on the episode called, "Shake Your Groove Thing". "Edge of the Ocean" has also been featured twice on the UPN series Veronica Mars, in episodes Meet John Smith and Rat Saw God; and in the trailer for the movie "Before Sunset". The song "Nothing but the sky" was also used on the final episode of a TV series named "LAX".
Schlesinger is also in the band Fountains of Wayne.
(2) Ivy was an indie pop band signed to Sarah Records.
(3) Ivy (아이비) (born 박은혜 (Park Eunhye), November 7, 1983) is a Korean pop singer who debuted in 2005 with the album Vol. 1 - My Sweet and Free Day. Although she has a strong voice, the record company chose the "sexy" route by releasing "오늘밤 일 (What Happened Tonight) as her first single. Since the song was about her cheating on her boyfriend with a one night stand, it was accompanied by a suggestive video. The official second single "A ha.." continued this sexy style, and it was popular enough to be parodied by female comedienne Park Kyung Rim; however, her record company also released "바본가봐" (I Am A Fool), a ballad that gave Ivy a reprieve from her sexy image and a chance showcasing her powerful voice. This song was mostly promoted on the MBC music show Music Camp, known for its "live performances only" policy; "A ha.." was performed on the other shows. The album was not a breakout hit, but consistent sales allowed it to place 48th for the year[1], thanks due to the popularity of her singles and heavy promotion on the various music shows. Although inactive for most of 2006, she has collaborated with Shinhwa for their album State Of The Art on the track "Highway Star".
She has been educated at Dongdeok Women's University.
On February 14, 2007, Ivy's second album, Vol. 2 - A Sweet Moment, was released.
Her first leading title, "유혹의 소나타 (Sonata of Temptation)," caused immense controversy after its PV was supposedly "recreating" a fight scene between Tifa and Loz from Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, apparently without the proper consent from Square Enix. The music video features a disclaimer stating that the scene is a recreation, but there is was no official information on whether or not this was properly cleared.
(4) Ivy is a dancehall/ragga brazilian singer whose site can be found at www.myspace.com/ivy7velas
(5) a slam francophone poet from Canada
(6) Ivy is the composer of a number of piano compositions and mood poems as well as several songs in the visual novel "May Sky"(Gogatsu no Sora in Japanese). http://www.muzie.ne.jp/artist/a030605/
(8) IVY comes to life in 2019 as the new project of Rita Sampaio. Her debut album Over and Out, can be described as autobiographical and extremely intimate.
IVY’s music is dark, introspective and intimate. Closed inside a world that not even herself can reach anymore, as a representation of a cycle that’s now closed, life in movement and transformation.

Ivy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You seemed so dead inside
I kept trying just to see it through
Just to be with you
Just to take the ride
Promise me that you'll do your best
It's all on you
You're all that's left
I guess that's no surprise
Four in the morning
And I got that feeling
Clock's ticking but my heart's not beating
Eyes open and I'm staring at the ceiling
Tell me that you're leaving
Give me something to believe in
Don't let me down
I never left I just held my breath
I kept in all inside
I never guessed if you knew the rest
There was nothing much
Written in your eyes
Promise me that you'll let it go
It's all I've got
I need to know
I never knew what to make of you
I guess that's no surprise
Four in the morning
And I got that feeling
Clock's ticking but my heart's not beating
Four in the morning
And I got that feeling
Clock's ticking but my heart's not beating
Eyes open and I'm staring at the ceiling
Tell me that you're leaving
Give me something to believe in
Don't let me down
The lyrics to Ivy's song "Four in the Morning" suggest a theme of a failed relationship that leaves one person feeling hurt and confused. The opening lines indicate a lack of emotional connection between two people who were in a relationship. The singer feels that their partner did not let them in and kept everything buried inside, leading to a sense of betrayal and disappointment. The repetition of the phrase "I never knew" adds to the feeling of confusion and regret.
After acknowledging the relationship's failures, the singer plunges into an emotional despair, as shown in the verse’s repetition of "Four in the morning/ And I got that feeling/ Clock's ticking but my heart's not beating." The singer admits to feeling helpless and vulnerable due to their partner's departure, seeking some form of acknowledgment and closure from them. The plea, "give me something to believe in," speaks to the singer's desire to believe that the time spent in the relationship meant something and that their partner's decision to leave was not in vain. Overall, the song explores the pain of a failed relationship and the longing for closure.

I never knew I was close to you
I had no idea that we were ever close
You seemed so dead inside
You appeared very emotionless
I kept trying just to see it through
I persisted with my efforts to make things work
Just to be with you
Simply to spend time with you
Just to take the ride
To embark on this journey with you
Promise me that you'll do your best
Please guarantee that you will try your hardest
It's all on you
You are the only one who can control this now
You're all that's left
You are the only one remaining in my life
I never knew what I meant to you
I was unaware of what our relationship meant to you
I guess that's no surprise
I am not shocked by this realization
Four in the morning
It is currently 4:00am
And I got that feeling
I am experiencing a distinct emotion at this moment
Clock's ticking but my heart's not beating
Time is passing but I do not feel any emotional connection
Eyes open and I'm staring at the ceiling
My eyes are wide open and I am looking at the ceiling
Tell me that you're leaving
Please inform me that you are departing
Give me something to believe in
Provide me with a reason to hold faith and trust in something
Don't let me down
Please do not disappoint me
I never left I just held my breath
I never left you, I was just waiting in anticipation
I kept in all inside
I bottled up all my emotions
I never guessed if you knew the rest
I was unsure if you knew the full story
There was nothing much written in your eyes
I saw no real emotion conveyed in your eyes
Promise me that you'll let it go
Please agree to release this from your mind
It's all I've got
This is the only hope I have left
I need to know
I require information to understand
I never knew what to make of you
I could never quite figure out who you were
Four in the morning
It is now 4:00 am
And I got that feeling
I experience a certain emotion at this moment
Clock's ticking but my heart's not beating
Time is moving forward but I do not feel emotionally connected
Eyes open and I'm staring at the ceiling
My eyes are wide open and I am looking at the ceiling
Tell me that you're leaving
Please tell me you are departing
Give me something to believe in
Provide me with something to hold faith and trust in
Don't let me down
Please do not disappoint me

These guys are amazing, they should be staggeringly popular! I'm kind of glad they're not because they're my little secret, I guess I'm selfish that way. Many of you probably know most of this band is also Fountains of Wayne.
