So recently a lot of people have requested I put up the lyrics for Fallin' So I kindly accept your challenge haha. I got fallin' down to a t when I go down you know there's no stopping me but I'll catch my breath and eventually I'll catch my death but you know you wont catch me.
but I don't care caus I've got a girl with two grazed knees and I think she's deluded but she thinks the world of me I just want her to see she's everything to me.
and I've got fallin' down to an art when I go down, I go down hard. but I'll be just fine, not getting back on my feet caus I feel just fine with you here with me.
and I don't care caus I've got a girl with two grazed knees and I think she's deluded but she thinks the world of me I just want her to see she's everything to me.
Though I've got cuts and bruises, I'm not up for losing hope I hope you know and I don't need to mention I've got good intentions I hope you know
that I've been trying my best to hold on, and keep my feet on the ground but whatever happens it happens. Be my gravity and hold me down.

It's less than a month till I get in the studio and start recording my new CD.
and once I get to 100,000 plays, I'll shove a new song up for you.
there ain't no party like a Sam Little party.

Current mood:  nostalgic
It just dawned on me that i've completely forgotten to write a tour blog, of antics and moments etc. I'm a let down.
I spent the majority of September playing in pretty much every place I could with some of the best people I know and Rob Dahl. From an amazing crowd in Yeovil to the local friends of Eastbourne, it was something incredible.
I posted up a little '50 things I've learnt from tour' on facebook which I'll post at the bottom of this, but ultimately the most important thing I've learnt is that this is what I'm meant for. Playing shows, making people smile, and meeting the friends that make me a better person. If you came to any of the shows, I just wanna say thank you for coming and being part of this journey for me. If you bought a shirt or a cd, you've got one of a limited number that I probably wont press again, unless something big happens. I know I wrote messages on a lot as well haha.
I'm going into the studio next month to record an ep. A debut ep of Eat Sleep Attack if you'll have it. Everything before's been a demo. This is gonna be the real deal, and I think the start of something beautiful. Let's just see how it goes, but this hasn't even started properly yet and I'm already loving life.
1. Megaphones are a necessity. 2. New friends are golden. 3. Old friends get missed more than I thought they would. 4. I have the best of friends, end of. 5. Ben Wyatt's dad makes the best bacon sandwich I've ever had. 6. Adelaide's checklist idea would've stopped me from losing things. 7. Jagermeister is still my best friend. 8. You can survive on £2 a day, but it's not healthy haha. 9. My Boss tuner was a good idea. 10. Wearing a 'Legalize Gay' shirt gets you plenty of awesome looks. 11. Everyone in the UK hates Rob Dahl a little bit. 12. Yeovil and Birmingham are still my favourite places to play. 13. I need to learn how to drive. 14. I need to rap less. 15. Anyone in the audience can be a cage fighter, and sometimes someone is. Be nice. 16. Microphones aren't a necessity. 17. I'm well allergic to stinging nettles, antihistamines and creams do nothing. 18. Do not challenge anyone to a 'rolling down a hill' competition. 19. I can not play guitar hero, unless drunk. 20. In Chichester, fun is not allowed. Especially not in the Live Lounge. 21. It's dead cold up north. 22. If a bed is offered, I'm not passing it up anymore. I can't function without sleep. 23. Talent can't be bought, but it can be made unfortunately. 24. There are so many towns and roads with the word Butt in it. 25. Luke Leighfield is actually, without me even realising it, a bit of a role model for me. 26. You can play football with a van and a sofa. 27. Flyering isn't allowed in many places. 28. Only the best of kids go to shows. 29. Is not a fan of houseparties. 30. Ben Wyatt is an absolute hero, and I owe him BIG TIME. 31. Hot Sauce is not suitable eyewear 32. Is an amazing facebook raper. 33. Beesting cider with mango gets me wasted so easily. 34. I can sleep in a venue playing Avenged Sevenfold and Trivium full blast 35. Running in the rain with flipflops is near impossible. 36. Running around Stoke with no shoes on is fairly painful. 37. Bands that have their own arrogant agenda really tick me off. 38. Nobody ever gets paid* 39. When you stop looking, you always find it. Unless you leave it in another city. 40. Everything's a bit better with drums/when you hit it. 41. Dave Fee is the most violent man I know. 42. This tour has actually been the most fun tour I've ever been on. 43. A 'Motley' is the best cockney slang for a brew/poo. 44. Rob Dahl is the living version of Eric Cartman. 45. Do NOT play gay chicken with Liam Hodgebane or Joseph Marshall. They've kissed (gutted boys) 46. Take less stuff. Or get better at carrying more. 47. I need to get a full on plan together. 48. Josh Leach is the sexiest man I've ever met, and proves nice guys do exist. 49. For every shit person, there are 6 that are fucking amazing. 50. I love tour, and this life. One day I'll do this forever. (*on rare occasions, you sometimes get paid but only after some form of complication)

So I read, yeah I read, in a newspaper that they're trying to put 'simples' into the dictionary. Ridiculous. But it got me thinking..
Why isn't everything just so much more simple and easy?
I mean, I know life isn't.. but I reckon if we made the effort to make things like that, it'd all pay off. So I'm making my little contribution.
I've taken all the excessive myspace images off my profile and just given you the straight up details and links. It should mean you don't have to scroll through loads of horrific images of me to get to what you want. Simple! If you don't like it, I'm sure eventually I'll probably revert back to having an elaborate myspace full of images. Maybe based around your face. Who knows.
It's also gonna be hella lot easier for me to check while I'm on tour, as I'm gonna be using Orange mobile internet. Expect slow replies and even slower service haha. But I'm gonna do my best to keep up to date with you. Your best bet is to ADD MY TWITTER that way you get all the juicy gossip. Beautiful.
I'll try and upload photos of antics and videos when I can. I've currently got a box infront of me full of merch, tambourine, boxing gloves, and spray paint. So it'll probably get messy haha.
Anyway, if you can, check out the dates on my page and come see me. If not, then leave me a comment or something nice. Like family photos where I'm photoshopped in, or drawings.
LOVE YOU BYE

So I've been a bit lax on doing this regular blog thing. Apologies! But here I am, sat sneakily on myspace at work. So I figured I'd write one up.
I've had the best response from everyone about Fallin'
thank you, very very much.
I'm working very hard on getting a new song to you. I may put up a little demo of it, maybe. Depends on how much you want it haha. If I don't put it online, you can hear it at a show.. which I'm doing plenty of this next month. I've just refined my set these last few days, whilst playing with the almighty Dave McPherson from INME. So I recommend you get your asses down to a show while you can :)
Give me a message or a comment if you're coming to a show, we'll high five and hang out. Fo realz.

day off today, Cardiff sadly got cancelled.. but we wont go there.
these last two weeks have gone so quickly and I'm pretty sad to think it'll all be over tomorrow. I've made some amazing friends, met some amazing fans, and had some absolutely cracking times. I kinda don't wanna go home.
There'll probably be footage of me being an idiot soon to come, gotta love tour videos.
I wanna say thank you quickly to MiMi Soya, the Auteur, Paige, Me Vs. Hero, and my brother Rob in Lost on Campus.. you've all made this so amazing.
if you've not heard of those guys, I recommend you check them out. they're the reason I've been losing my voice each night through sing-a-longs.
ALSO, as you can see by my new profile picture.. I've got some sexy shirts that've just come in.
PRE-ORDERS WILL START TUESDAY (if all goes well)
they're beautiful, props to Pandycane Clothing for helping me out with these.
Hope everyone's well, who's excited for the single?? xx

It's always funny how you've got so much on your mind, but when it actually comes to it you're always lost for words. This week's been a good test for me, I've had some big ups and some damn low downs.. but you've gotta keep on moving. I'm sitting on my new single, which is so hard to do especially when I believe so much in it and I want to show you all how awesome it is. I honestly think it's the best thing I've ever written and I can't wait to share it with you. It'll hopefully be out on the 24th of August, but things don't ever go to plan and at the moment I'm talking future plans with a few people so don't be suprised if it gets delayed.
I leave for tour next week. I'm not personally playing all of the shows, but I will be playing piano for Rob of Lost on Campus fame. I'll be sharing the long nights and longer drives with some of the best people I know. Check out The Auteur, Mimi Soya, and Rob .. if you haven't already! and even if none of the bands take your fancy, come down and say hi just for me. I'll be the one most likely running around with hyperness haha.
Just quickly before I wrap this up, I wanna say thank you to all of you that are coming along this journey with me. Thanks to all the people that've genuinely meant the nice things they've said. You really don't know how helpful it is to have that push at the heels of your feet telling you to keep going and never look back. One day soon, we'll all be a part of something beautiful. Trust me.
i love you ♥
