Although Jared performs mainly in college market, his thought provoking lyrics and melodic vocals cross many genres as well as appeal to many demographics. The fans Jared gains are loyal and continually crash his website with an average of over 5,000 visitors a month. Following a very successful showcase performance at the 2006 NACA National Convention, Jared quickly became one of the hottest college acts in the country.
While laying this tremendous foundation, Jared has achieved a number of career milestones that include being chosen by MTV Books to record a track for the soundtrack of their short story collection “Lit Riffs.” Jared has shared the concert stage with national acts such as Jason Mraz, Gavin DeGraw, Journey, Matt Nathanson, Sister Hazel, and more. The celebration concert for the release of his first full length CD, “Rest Out”, sold out the 1,500 seat Forum Theater. This was a personal success for Jared, as this is a venue where Jared attended many concerts while he was growing up and always dreamed that someday he would be the one on the stage.
As Jared explains, his goal “is to have his music impact the lives of his listeners," whether it be a feel good song like “Only Getting Better” or a deeply-rooted song about overcoming life’s obstacles such as “Catch A Glimpse of Blue.” Although Jared’s recordings are mostly full band productions, Jared typically performs as a solo acoustic artist which affords him the opportunity to invite listeners into the depth of his songs. His debut EP “Where It All Begins” only hints at the depth of his songwriting ability which makes listeners not only discover who Jared is as a person but forces the listener to reflect on their own lives. “Rest Out” highlights Jared’s growth as a musician while the songs take his fans to another level – one that builds upon Jared’s continuing theme of not only entertaining but also provoking…
Whether Jared chooses to stay independent or take things to the next business level, the future will surely add to his already growing list of accomplishments.
Stay On the Line
Jared Campbell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I would try my best to make it
But if I try it and never succeed
Still I know I gave one hundred percent
But here I am down on my knees
And I'm begging please
Don't hang me up
See I know we can make it through some how
If you stay on the line than
Everything is gonna be fine
I just want to reach right through the phone
With my hands and hold you close to me
So we can just pretend
We'll stay here for the rest of our lives, yeah
And we'll grow old, just holding each other
So baby just hold
See I just want to talk to you right now
See I know we can make it through some how
If you stay on the line than
Everything is gonna be fine
If you stay on the line than
Everything is gonna be fine.
I can feel your breath on me
From miles away
I've never felt a greater relief
From anything
And knowing you are here with me, girl
It's the greatest thing yeah, it's the greatest thing
[Repeat]
See I just want to talk to you right now
See I know we can make it through some how
If you stay on the line than
Everything is gonna be fine

If anyway you wanted to be
If there is anything you want to be
I would try my best to make it
I will do everything to help you achieve it
But if I try it and never succeed
In case my efforts end up unsuccessful
Still I know I gave one hundred percent
I will remain satisfied that I tried my level best
But here I am down on my knees
At times, I feel helpless
And I'm begging please
I plead with you
Don't hang me up
Don't abandon or ignore me
See I just want to talk to you right now
I simply wish to converse with you at this very moment
See I know we can make it through some how
I am confident we can overcome this situation together
If you stay on the line than
If we continue to communicate
Everything is gonna be fine
All will be well
I just want to reach right through the phone
I want to be physically close to you
With my hands and hold you close to me
I want to embrace you tightly
So we can just pretend
We can envisage ourselves
We'll stay here for the rest of our lives, yeah
We'll be together forever
And we'll grow old, just holding each other
We'll age together while holding one another
So baby just hold
Love me and be close to me
If you stay on the line than
If we continue to communicate
Everything is gonna be fine
Everything will work out well
I can feel your breath on me
I sense your presence around me
From miles away
Even if you are far-off
I've never felt a greater relief
Never experienced such calmness before
From anything
From anyone or anything
And knowing you are here with me, girl
Realizing that you are with me
It's the greatest thing yeah, it's the greatest thing
It's the best thing ever
If you stay on the line than
If we continue to communicate
Everything is gonna be fine
Everything will be alright
