The Script, Sunsets & Full Moons [๐Ÿ“ท: Sony]For the 9th Thankful Song ๐Ÿ™๐ŸŽถ, we highlight โ€œRun Through Walls,โ€ where Irish pop collective The Script are thankful for friends.

โ€œIโ€™ve got friends that will run through walls / Iโ€™ve got friends that will fly once called / When Iโ€™ve got nowhere left to go / And I need my heroes / Iโ€™ve got friends that will run through walls.โ€ ย Sigh, thatโ€™s a beautifully penned, thoughtful chorus if I do say so myself ๐ŸŽ™ The Script! Before we dig into this inspirational standout, let me remind you the premise of Thankful Songs ๐Ÿ™๐ŸŽถ! On Thankful Songs ๐Ÿ™๐ŸŽถ, we highlight songs in which the musician (or musicians) show gratitude about something or towards someone. ย This idea came from the fact that in November, here in the United States of America, many Americans celebrate Thanksgiving.ย  So, what better way than to celebrate than select some awesome songs that exhibit gratitude? Our ninth entry comes from The Script with ๐ŸŽต โ€œRun Through Walls,โ€ from the collectiveโ€™s 2019 album, ๐Ÿ’ฟ Sunsets & Full Moons.

โ€œRun Through Wallsโ€ appears as the third track from the sixth studio album by Irish pop/rock collective. The Script are best known for hits like โ€œHall of Fameโ€, โ€œBreakevenโ€, and โ€œSuperheroesโ€. Sunsets & Full Moons didnโ€™t ignite the US charts, but at least we were blessed with โ€œRun Through Walls,โ€ which is quite personal and reflective throughout its course. ๐ŸŽ™ Danny Oโ€™Donoghue speaks to the power of true friendship.ย  On the first verse, while he asserts, โ€œThereโ€™s no one born with X-Ray eyes.โ€ He goes on to say, โ€œBut you always say the words that save my life.โ€ย  On the second, he cites a specific event โ€“ โ€œAnd that day my mother diedโ€ โ€“ to reference the power of real friends.ย  โ€œAnd you held me up and you wiped my eyes,โ€ he sings, continuing, โ€œIt was in that moment when I realized.โ€ Walls, indeed, have been broken down.
