Four Walls

Eddie Holman 1969


The music in this song, especially the spikes of brass instruments, give this song a Rocky soundtrack feel ( maybe an intro or ending scene). Further, the message of the lyrics are positive in the sense that the singer misses his girl, and has hope she will come back to reconcile with him. Who knows if she ever came back? Anyways, I'm going to assume she did, and all went well, and jam out to it.



Genre: R&B / Soul

Particular lyrics

I must have been out of my mind

To set you free, I must have been blind

But now I see it's you I need

Open the door, baby, walk right on in


I don't know what I was thinking about

With your love I thought that I could do without

And now I'm sitting here all alone

Just waiting, just waiting

For you to come on home


Why I chose this song for this week

This song fills an emotion similar to resolutions week, yet it has a more determined feel to it. Instead of just exciting me, and making me want to get active, the song makes me want to complete a goal. Ya know what I mean? Like not just go to the beach, but maybe like build a bench or repair a bike, etc.Â
