Backstory:

Satisfied Argument was formed in the bustling college town of Ann Arbor, Michigan, in the late 2000s. It all started when lead vocalist and guitarist, Ryan Reynolds (no, not THAT Ryan Reynolds), ran into drummer, Josh Myers in their Philosophy class. They quickly bonded over their love for music, and their tendency to have heated, yet satisfying, arguments about it. With the addition of bassist, Emily Clark, and keyboardist, Steve Han, Satisfied Argument was born. The band spent their early days performing in local bars and college events. Their engaging performance style and thought-provoking lyrics quickly garnered them a loyal fan base, which only grew when they released their debut album in 2012.

Title:

“Shadows on the Wall”

Lyrics:

(Verse)
[G] Looking at the shadows on the wall [D]
[Em] Wondering if you’re gonna call [C]
[G] Caught in a dance, lost in a trance [D]
[Em] Waiting for a chance, for romance [C]

(Chorus)
[D] Shadows on the wall, [Em] they’re singing our song [C]
[G] They’ve seen it all, [D] they know what went wrong [Em]
[C] Shadows on the wall, [G] under the moonlight’s fall [D]
[Em] Waiting for your call, [C] will I stand or will I fall?

(Verse)
[G] Picturing you in our old place [D]
[Em] The memory I can’t erase [C]
[G] Laughing in the dark, a forgotten spark [D]
[Em] A beautiful lark, a journey we embark [C]

(Chorus)
[D] Shadows on the wall, [Em] they’re singing our song [C]
[G] They’ve seen it all, [D] they know what went wrong [Em]
[C] Shadows on the wall, [G] under the moonlight’s fall [D]
[Em] Waiting for your call, [C] will I stand or will I fall?

Testimonial:

“Satisfied Argument is my absolute favorite band. Their music hits a chord in my heart every time I listen to it. Their lyrics are meaningful and profound, and their melodies are addictive. Every song tells a story, and I feel like I’m part of that story. I’ve been to every concert they’ve had in Michigan and even a few out of state. There’s just something about their energy on stage that is so captivating. When they perform ‘Shadows on the Wall’, it sends shivers down my spine. No matter what mood I am in, their music always seems to fit it perfectly. Thank you, Satisfied Argument, for creating such beautiful music.”
