2) Sunstorm (Rough Trade Records, psych rock band) was formed in L.A., in July of 1999. Jerrold Balcom, the group's leader, the son of a theoretical physicist, had grown up in Torrance, CA. For a time, he lived in Tempe, AZ, before moving back to the West L.A. area, where he met up with bassist Thien Tan Doan and organist Blake Jordan. The trio decided to form a group. Meanwhile, Balcom spent several months trying to talk a drummer, Roger Brogan, into moving from Phoenix to L.A. so they could play shows. Brogan, at the time, was in Alison's Halo. After that group disbanded, he joined a few other groups, and, in 1999, finally made the move to L.A. to join up with Sunstorm. They began playing shows, expanding to add tambourine player Bowerbird and guitarist Rob Campanella, who had seen Balcom's ad in a weekly publication and contacted him because some of their musical interests -- the Verve, Ride, Spiritualized, the Stone Roses, and early Primal Scream -- were so similar. Campanella offered the use of his home studio, and soon they were recording demos. In March 2000, they pressed up a CD to attract interest in the group. The self-titled CD (all 250 copies selling out at the band's shows) finally did attract interest, from L.A.-music industry vet Margaret Mittleman. Mittleman (whose M3 management company roster has, at one time, featuredBeck, Built to Spill, Elliott Smith, and Beachwood Sparks) began working closely with the band, acting as their manager for the next year. During that time, Sunstorm continued to record, and the M3 label pressed up copies of an EP, High Resolution, which garnered even more interest in the band. Brogan later departed, joining Idaho Falls, and Campanella left to focus on the other two groups he was in, the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Quarter After, touring with the BJM in 2001. Balcom eventually reassembled his group, drafting in new drummer Shane Kraus, and shifting Bowerbird over to rhythm guitar while he concentrated on lead guitar as well as fronting his band. Sunstorm were eventually brought to the attention of Geoff Travis, of the London-based Rough Trade label, who signed them to a contract. Rough Trade released the band's "official" debut EP, The Comeongohigher EP, in Spring 2002, which was reviewed favorably and began garnering airplay. A West Coast tour followed, along with preperation for the band's full-length debut.
All I Am
Sunstorm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've given you everything
But I'm so afraid
Were caught in the deep blue sea
You have me so completely
Don't let this go
I can't give enough
Here in the dark - you're breaking my heart
You're all I am
You're just hurting yourself
Don't question what's never been
You're dreaming away
You can't see forest for the trees
It's never been so beautiful
Take a look in my eyes
I can't love you more
I can't give enough
Here in the dark - you're breaking my heart
You're all I am
I can't take away
The pain from yesterday
'Cos I couldn't see - how I could be free
Now, you're all I am
You have me so completely
Don't let this go
I can't love you more
I can't give enough
Here in the dark - you're breaking my heart
You're all I am
I can't take away
The pain from yesterday
'Cos I couldn't see - how I could be free
Now, you're all I am
Now with arms open wide
You've got me for life
And if you could only see
You have all of me

Here in the dark
I am currently in a state of uncertainty or confusion
I've given you everything
I have given you all of me
But I'm so afraid
Despite giving my all, I am still afraid of what may happen
Were caught in the deep blue sea
We are currently in a difficult situation that may be hard to navigate
You have me so completely
You have all of me and my love
Don't let this go
Please hold onto our love and don't let it slip away
I can't love you more
I love you with all that I am capable of loving
I can't give enough
Despite my best efforts, I can't give any more than I already have
Here in the dark - you're breaking my heart
Despite being in a state of confusion, your actions are causing me emotional pain
You're all I am
You are my everything
You're just hurting yourself
By hurting me, you are also hurting yourself
Don't question what's never been
Don't doubt something that has always been true
You're dreaming away
You are lost in your own thoughts and not acknowledging reality
You can't see forest for the trees
You are too focused on the details and not seeing the bigger picture
It's never been so beautiful
Our love has never been more magnificent or meaningful
Take a look in my eyes
Look into my eyes and see the love that I have for you
I can't take away
I am not able to remove
The pain from yesterday
The emotional pain that was caused in the past
'Cos I couldn't see - how I could be free
Because I was unable to see how I could get past my emotional pain and be free from it
Now, you're all I am
Currently, you are my source of happiness and love
Now with arms open wide
Now, I am ready to embrace you wholeheartedly
You've got me for life
You have me for eternity
And if you could only see
If only you could understand
You have all of me
You have all of my love and devotion
