Her latest CD was produced by Bill Lefler (Ingrid Michaelson, Cary Brothers, Laura Jansen) and paid for 100% by fan contributions through a highly successful PledgeMusic campaign.
England took a hiatus from her solo career to focus on The Rescues upon being signed to Universal Republic in 2009. “It was a whirlwind couple of years,” she says. “When I had some quiet time in January 2011, the songs started pouring out.”
Kyler’s songs have appeared on numerous TV shows, including Vampire Diaries, One Tree Hill, Switched at Birth, Ghost Whisperer and Army Wives, and in the feature film The Lucky Ones, and her collaborations with DJs have been featured on Armin van Buuren’s “A State of Trance” compilations and radio shows.
She has toured the country (United States) many times, opening for Sting, Annie Lennox, Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson and more; she’s also played the Toronto Film Festival.
Electric Hum hit iTunes on 10.25.11 and went humming straight into the Singer-Songwriter chart Top 30. It was named #1 Indie Album of 2011 by Examiner.com and included in Amazon's Digital-Only Faves of 2011. A sign of things to come, Electric Hum is just warming up.
Take Me With You
Kyler England Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thinking over all the things you said to me
You said to me
All your dreams are dying in the sun
Pretty soon there'll be nowhere left to run away
To run away
You packed your bags to leave by the morning
It's never or now
It's never or now
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Cause I don't wanna be alone tonight
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Memories of a life I leave behind
Take a souvenir to remind me of
The ones that love
Feel my heart it beats like a stopwatch
Running out of time with each tick tock
It's never or now
It's never or now
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
Cause I don't wanna be alone tonight
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Baby won't you take me
Baby won't you take me with you
With you
In "Take Me With You," Kyler England portrays a sense of uncertainty and fear of loneliness as the singer desperately pleads for her companion to take her along on their journey. The image of waiting for the light to change from red demonstrates the theme of being stuck and not knowing what the future may hold. This is amplified by the line “All your dreams are dying in the sun,” which suggests that the person to whom she is addressing has given up on their dreams or aspirations, and that the singer may be witnessing their breaking point. The sense of urgency and the importance of the moment are further expressed by the repetition of “It’s never or now”.
Throughout the song, the singer refers to her fear of being alone, and the memory of the people she may leave behind. She mentions taking a souvenir of the ones she loves to remind her of them when she is away. This creates a sense of connection, where the singer wants to take a piece of the people she loves with her on her journey, indicating that the memories of those who we love or who love us, gives us the strength to continue.
Overall, "Take Me With You" explores the ideas of change, fear of loneliness, and the importance of love and connection. The song conveys the idea that sometimes we need others to help us face our fears and to guide us through uncertainty.
