An overall
awesome band. Jack's Mannequin is the side project of singer-songwriter-pianist Andrew McMahon of Something Corporate. It is usually classified as alternative
rock, but is occasionally referred to as punk.Jack's Mannequin is a fairly new band. It was started in
2004, releasing it's first album in 2005. Jack's Mannequin only has one album, Everything In Transit, released right now. Everything In Transit is full of songs that are deeply personal to
Andrew. Most of them have something to do with his struggle with leukemia. For example, Holiday From Real is about readjusting to his old life after his recovery and Kill The Messenger is about being in a relationship with someone who is ill (that person being himself). La La Lie involves the
friends Andrew thought he had, but who didn't help him and stay by him while he was sick. Other songs from Everything In Transit are about love, relationships and other topics. Jack's Mannequin gained a lot of popularity after the band appeared on the T.V show One
Tree Hill and were featured on it's soundtrack. The band currently finishing up their West Coast Winter Tour and
will then start working on a new album.
Jack's Mannequin is a great band. They're my favorite.

I have, I have you breathing down my neck, breathing down my neck
I don't, don't know what you could possibly expect under this condition so
I'll wait, I'll wait for the ambulance to come, ambulance to come
Pick us up off the floor what did you possibily expect under this condition so
Slow down, this nights a perfect shade of

Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning and burning down

Have you ever been alone in a crowded room well I'm here with you
I said the world could be burning 'til there's nothing but dark

Just dark blue
