The Ready Set

The other day, I was listening to the radio in my car and I heard the end of a song. It sounded really cool, so I jotted down the lyrics. I Googled it later that night and was introduced to this band called The Ready Set. Needless to say, I am in love!!

The singer is Jordan Witzigreuter and he is The Ready Set. He writes and composes the music. He is 20 years old from Indiana and his first album, "I'm Alive, I'm Dreaming" came out in June 2010. After graduating high school, he realized he could do this so he built The Ready Set on his own, booking his own tour dates and venues, driving across the country in his car. He's fought his way through and he's making it. It's absolutely inspiring.

The song I heard that night is called "Love Like Woe". I listened to it like a billion times within the next couple of days and I've spent many late nights watching all of his video series called "No Second Chances" and other videos online. You can listen to "Love Like Woe" on the playlist above...it's near the bottom of the songs.

I really like his style. His songs have a cool sound and beat, he can sing unbelievable fast which sounds really cool, and his lyrics are really great. He uses fun words and rhymes. I'm so excited to get my CD.

Here are some of my favorite lines from the few songs I've heard so far:

"I think you're a pretty sweet pill that I'm swallowing down."

"I might drive myself insane if those lips aren't speaking my name."

"You're the only one that can make a storm cloud break, pulling out the sun."

"Everything is second to your dreams."

"I need a little more thunder, a little more lightening, a little more you."

"I'll contrive a way to find you diamond rings. I'll sell all my things or rob a jewelry store, but what good could that do? Love is something that just can't be bought or sold."

"New relationships come and go, but what makes the difference is how you take advantage of the flirting eyes, lips and thighs, romance and regrets, this is a ship wreck."

"I'm the one who fell in love and stayed that way. So take my advice, love with you head, love with your heart, love with all you have."

"If you were a snowflake, impossibly I'd be the same shape as you."

"My ticket, my destination."
