Ffh - Far From Home: The Ffh Collection
- A ray of pure sunshine pegs Ffh’s Far From Home: The Ffh Collection. All the songs have hopeful lyrics and the vocalist’s timbre has a quality that will make you smile as you listen.
“Big Fish” has drum work, odd sounding lyrics and superb harmonizing. The song seems to be about a humongous fish and the vocalist muses about being caught inside it and wanting to break out, with such lines as, “Are you in the big fish? Are you sittin’ in the belly?…Do you wanna get out of the big fish?…Stretch you out on the dry land.” Listeners might brainstorm about the cloaked meaning behind these strange lyrics and wonder if the band is trying to flee from some unknown force and using an allegory to explain their bind; it’s up to the listener to decide.
On “One of These Days,” the vocalist gives scenarios and dreams he would like to execute in a sanguine melody that will make you want to be right by his side as he attempts to fulfill his hitherto unobtainable fantasies, such as, “One of these days I’m gonna climb over the mountain. One of these days I’m gonna ride on the silver lining…One of these days I’m gonna do all the things I’ve never done.” The confident style and measure of this song makes you think about all your own expectations and visions and it might even thrust you into making your own desires come true as you listen to this song.
“Found A Place” has specific guitar work that flows right along with the lyrics, such as, “I found a place where I can go…I found a place where you are no longer reaching for me. I found a place that’s close to you. I found a place that close to me. I found a place where you are and that’s where I want to be, and you’ll find me and you’ll find me at your feet and you’ll find me kneeling and you’ll find me near or far you’ll find me where you are.” This song is a love poem to a woman declaring the vocalist’s unceasing ardor and the lengths he will go in order to be near her and to share eternity with her.
Ffh’s Far From Home: The Ffh Collection is an album that has songs filled with spunk, love of life, as well as songs you can blast at high volumes toward the window of the one you pine for as an unmistakable symbol of your devotion.
