“Another Last Time” by Fred Page – A Song Review

     Fred Page excels at introspective tracks that require both gentle, sentimental explanations and emotionally charged exclamations. Last year, “Twenty Years” showed his skills in transitioning between crooning a description of the loss of bearings within a long-term relationship and the near-shouts of anguish regarding the effects on him. This year, “Another Last Time” steps in, with statements such as “And I’m stuck inside my head… but it’s all that I’ve got left.”

     In talking about “Another Last Time,” Fred Page discusses the attempt to allow the song’s timely and universal message to come across properly:
  “Every time it felt done, something else would happen and we’d look at the song from a new perspective. First it was Brexit, then Trump, and now it just feels like it’s the right time for the world to hear the song’s message.”

     The track was co-written by Fred Page and Joe Janiak, who also provided the production.


Lyrics of “Another Last Time” by Fred Page
I can change, but it just won't sort it out
Enough now
Can imitate but the truth just comes around
Around

And I'm so stuck inside my head
I know it
But it's all that I've got left
So, I'm taking my regrets
By the hand
Gonna hold them

For another
Another last time, ey
Last time, ey ey
Another last time, ey
Last time, ey ey
Another last time

I could fake it but I just can't escape
No way, no way
I hate to say that it's me I'm trying to shake
Everyday, everyday

And I'm so stuck inside my head
I know it
But it's all that I've got left
So I'm taking my regrets,
By the hand
Gonna hold them

For another
Another last time, ey
Last time, ey ey
Another last time, ey
Last time, ey ey
Another last time

Running again from
Mistakes still yet to come
I'll do it again for
Another
Another last time
Another last time

Another last time, ey ey
Last time, ey ey
Another last time, ey ey
Last time, ey ey
Another last time
Ey ey
Ey ey
Ey ey
Ey ey
