I've been writing music most of my life. Songs have always been the place where I've sorted out the events of day. If you trace these songs back far enough they tell a story of where I've been and what I've seen along the way. That said, most people don't have the time to sort through the hundreds of songs that have collected in the wake of my 20 plus years behind a piano, and that's why I love "Cecilia and the Satellite". As a song it encapsulate so much living against the back drop of a new life. Cecilia was written with the knowledge that my wife and I would soon meet our first child. With the hope of avoiding territory this type of song often treads, I tried to create a road map of the life I had lived leading up to that moment. One my daughter might look back on some day. A strange life of constant motion, spent traveling in the pursuit of music. A life I’ve nearly lost on more than one occasion and one which I am thankful for, now more than ever. Deep down this song is about more than me and where I’ve been, it’s about more than my daughter and what I want for her. It’s about being proud of where you come from and wanting the most for the people you share your world with.

Keep an eye out for tour dates on Monday!

LYRICS
I’ve locked myself in a hotel room
Then waited all night for the walls to move
I've loved some girls that I barely knew
I’ve made some friends, and I’ve lost some too
 
Crashed my car, I was seventeen
My mother in the seat riding next to me
The things I’ve learned from a broken mirror
How a face can change when a heart knows fear
 
For all the things my eyes have seen, the best by far is you
 
If I could fly, then I would know
What life looks like from up above and down below
I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry
Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
 
Oh, Oh
 
I've café crawled through Amsterdam
Been around the world with a punk rock band
And I’ve seen London, and I’ve played Japan
I’ve been knocked down, I got up again
 
For all the places I have been, I’m no place without you
 
If I could fly, then I would know
What life looks like from up above and down below
I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry
Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
 
Oh, Oh
I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
 
For all the things my hands have held, the best by far is you
 
If I could fly, then I would know
What life looks like from up above and down below
I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry
Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
And you’re the sky
I’m the satellite
And you’re the sky
And you’re the sky

Go HEART the song on HypeM http://hypem.com/track/1wqby/Say+Lou+Lou+-+Julian+(The+Chainsmokers+Remix)

FREE DOWNLOAD – We are really running out of witty things to say...so, yes the song is free, we wouldn't dare to imagine charging $1.99, yet, but remember, when you are out with your extra $1.99 think, was the happiness this free download brought worth more than $1.99, maybe, maybe not.... either way go LIKE our page and ENJOY your FREE DL, and go take your savings, and buy yourself something special like Daft Punk

Note about the Song: We actually first heard the song via Monsieur Adi’s Remix and thought it was awesome but were curious to hear the original, so we checked it out and loved Say Lou Lou's original but thought there was still room for a really upbeat version with our progressive indie flare (we hate the word flare). What really appealed to us about Say Lou Lou was they have this renegade softness, its sorta punk but not, that makes no sense right, but there is sort of care-free beautiful nature to there voices and we thought we could make a summer anthem with this baby, or die trying (side note: at no point were we close to death in the making of this remix) So we got the stems, and wanted to create something that really screams 'let me in I want to fucking dance, but I also brought my own beer.'  So here is how we did it:

                       SayLouLou x TheChainsmokers                    
-------------------------------------------------------- x Happiness  = This Song

Quick note from Alex's Sister about this song: "Do you know Calvin Harris, he is so hot" (no we do not, but agree he is good looking)
