[5] A collaboration of three Raleigh musicians, beginning in the fall of 2008. Patrick Downing, Brent and John were all born and raised in the fine state of North Carolina and that southern influence carries through in much of the songwriting. Heavily affected by a British rock/pop sound, Silver has carefully crafted melodies that are both unique all the while holding firmly to their region and place.
Their début EP, "+/-" (Feb 2009), finds a young band in their mid twenties trying to balance honest melodies about the good and the bad, the darkness and the light. +/- gently nods to bands such as Radiohead, Kings of Leon, U2 and Muse with delayed guitars, swirling synthesizers and organs and steady pounding rhythms. A firmly established power trio, Silver is garnering attention and support throughout the southeast.
Their latest release is EP "Feeling Of Falling" (Oct 2011).

I Got A Thing
Silver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That old sleep still in your eyes
I remember all the laughter
And the tears we shared last night
And as we lie here, just two shadows
In the light before the dawn
The sweetest thing I've ever known
And I have never been afraid of losing
And I have never wanted love to be a chain
I only know that when I'm with you
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
The sweetest thing I've ever known
Is loving you
Now, you and I, we're not children
We have both been loved before
We have given and we have taken
Many rides on troubled shores
And all the heartaches and temptations
Only make me love you more
The sweetest thing I've ever known
Is loving you
And I have never been afraid of losing
And I have never wanted love to be a chain
I only know that when I'm with you
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
The sweetest thing I've ever known
Is loving you
The sweetest thing I've ever known
Is loving you
