1.
New York City’s The Affair released their debut album Yes Yes To You in 2007. Since Kali Holloway (vocals, lyrics), Nelson Dellamaggiore (bass), Neel Arant (keyboards/guitar), Josh Leeman (lead guitar) and Marc Pattini (drums) first stepped on a stage together, the band has garnered respect and praise in both local and European music journals.
The Affair caught the attention of Vice Records, which in July 2004 released their first single, Honey, a song which showcased their ability to meld proto-punk and new wave allegiances with keen pop sensibilities. After a couple of years spent trolling through NY nightclubs, the band reappeared earlier in 2006 with a new single, Andy, on UK buzz label Marquis Cha Cha. Absolutely Kosher signed the band after chasing them around Austin at SXSW.
Lately, the streets of rock and roll seem cluttered with matching mod dresses filled with Swedes and Brits with their hair in bangs and Phil Spector in their lockets. The Affair tear through them like a flame. There might be girl groups in their rearview mirrors, but there are knives in their hands and lightning in their eyes. Faux finishing school poses and demure, wistful cooing have been demolished by soulful defiance. The “my boyfriend’s back and there’s going to be trouble” of yesteryear has been appended with “because I’m going to kick his ass for leaving.” Kali’s voice is bruised and angry but triumphant on Dead Letters, playful and sassy on Jailbait Date and positively flawless on Left At The Party. Her own lyricism is at once coy with a wink, but full of piss and vinegar. There’s not a vocal turn on the record where she doesn’t deliver. “Happy endings never interested me,” she wails on Swallow the Nights. "If early press is any indication, the world might not abide her.
With a swagger in their sound that could only come from the five boroughs, the band channels bits of New York acts like the Shangri-La's, The Ronettes, and Blondie. Throw in dashes of the Cars and the Runaways and distill them in gin and thorns, it gives them a distinctly modern voice. The Affair personifies their very name, at once dangerous, timeless, immoral and ecstatic, illicit and sultry, conflicted and pure. This is one Affair in which you won't mind getting caught.

The lyrics to The Affair's "Wherever You Are" explore the concept of certainty and the nature of truth. The singer challenges someone who claims to know the truth, questioning their confidence and asking them how it's working out for them. The repetition of the phrase "tell me, are you still certain?" highlights the idea that certainty can be fragile and subject to change.
The lines "no one knows truth, how can you judge with such confidence?" suggest that the concept of truth is subjective and may vary from person to person. The singer urges the listener to question their belief in their own certainty and warns against speaking with conviction without considering other perspectives.
Overall, the lyrics of "Wherever You Are" encourage the listener to think critically about their own beliefs and the impact they have on those around them.

why and was Noah and extreme pissed off
@DannyBZ9
What kinda clown takes a felony manslaughter DUI for a broad 🤦🏻♂️
@victorpradha9946
A clown that screwed over his wife of 20 yrs, and their 5 kids. Oh and he also dynamited the marriage of his mistress. He also went off the deep end trying to score with any woman that so much as looked at him and some that didn't. That kind of guilt will drive a man to want to atone. Also, the context of the DUI manslaughter was quite complex. SPOILERS: He himself drank and did not feel comfortable driving and so he made his "broad" drive. And then his mistress/wife (at the time) was drunken walking by herself along the road and encountered her totally lit (ex) brother-in-law who knew/suspected that her child was fathered by his brother (the mistress's ex-husband) while the mistress was married to the "clown". The brother in law got super aggressively handsy and insisted on partaking of this sister-in-law so she shoved him off of her as he was assaulting her. The shove sent the brother in law into the path of the oncoming car driven by the clown's ex-wife (1st wife of 20 yrs marriage) who drove at the request of the clown.

@Victor Pradha what a simp he was
@irelandevr4046
@Victor Pradha Helen and Noah had 4 kids not 5 kids. Alison didn't marry Noah until after Scotty died and before Noah confessed to the murder in court.
@victorpradha9946
@Ireland EVR true...I exaggerated it in my head. Also...she was the fiancée at the time I think and became ex-wife immediately after he gets out of prison, right.
