In itself, the song tells a story of a man's pursuit of love and how he continues to be shot down. The song is said to be inspired by one of his friend's pursuit of a woman.

Featured Weekend Artist - Jack Johnson - Breakdown



Jack Johnson - Breakdown

As a former surfing champ, Jack Johnson brings an easy-going laidback vibe into his soulful songs. Breakdown was released in 2005 on his In Between Dreams album and peaked at number 73 on the UK charts. One interesting fact about 'Breakdown', it was written on a train ride between Paris and Hossegor, which is a famous surf location in France.

To me, its more about stepping back from life and taking in the moment.
