I hope everyone's having a great afternoon!  I just wanted to take a second to talk about The Fray's new track called "Heartbeat"  According to Isaac Slade, the song cowriter, the track was "inspired by his experiences traveling abroad; it is essentially about "a woman escaping a horrible situation in the middle of the night and coming back to life.""  To me this is a song about hope, about seeing the light in what seems like a hopeless situation.  

Slade said "That song came out of a period of my life when I was trying hard to be open to whatever came my way. I traveled through South Africa and Rwanda with a buddy, and at first it was really hard to stay open in the face of so much pain and heartache. But then I ended up meeting so many cool and inspiring people, and all these ideas for lyrics and melodies just started rushing in"  I hope this song is an encouragement to you in whatever you're going through today.
