Alright, back to the music. So, tomorrow I will be going to Red's Nothing and Everything Tour featuring Disciple, Brian "Head" Welch, The Wedding, and Silverline. In honor of that, I figured I would highlight one of my favorite, under-appreciated Red songs. However, I'm going with a double feature this time around because these two songs appear next to each other on the album and, in my opinion, transition into the second song quite nicely.
The two songs are "Lost" and "Pieces." Now both of these songs have actually had a small amount of exposure each. "Lost" was one of the five singles released from Red's debut "End of Silence" album but never made any of the charts and as such never received any significant radio play. Nevertheless, "Lost" was still voted best rock song at the Dove Awards.
"Pieces" was never released as a single. However, it does have one small claim to notoriety in that it was used in trailers for the successful movie "The Blind Side." Although, as far as I can tell, this is widely unknown by most people. Which is unfortunate because it is very effective in the trailer and not as overused as The Fray's "How To Save A Life" which also appears in the trailer.
Anyhow, I've spent some time tweaking the embedded YouTube players to the configuration seen below for optimal space usage as well as convenient ordering. If it were up to me though, the album artwork would have been split up between the two videos to create a single image. Maybe once I get around to making my own YouTube channel for this feature instead of using other people's videos, I'll replace these with my own versions. Until then, enjoy the songs. Pictures from the concert will go up here in some way, shape, or form eventually.
