Cold Cold Man by Saint Motel

In this song, Saint Motel songwriter/frontman A/J Jackson finds a new way to tell his loved one how he feels about her:

You're the only one worth seeing
The only place worth being
The only bed worth sleeping is
The one right next to you

In our interview with Jackson, he explained: "'Cold Cold Man' is to me another way of saying 'I Love You' with more of just 'I don't always need to tell you I love you for you to get that.' Which I've experienced, and I'm sure a lot of people have experienced.

Sometimes it just rubs me the wrong way: People are too saccharin about everything, and with, 'I love you' after every phone call, it just seems like if you always express it too much, throw it out there cheaply, it loses a little bit of the value when you use it."
This is a track from Saint Motel's first major label release, the four-song My Type EP. The Los Angeles group formed in 2007 and built up a following with their 2012 self-released album, Voyeur.

The Third Day frontman talks about some of the classic songs he wrote with the band, and what changed for his solo country album.

One of the first successful female singer-songwriters, Janis had her first hit in 1967 at age 15.

He wrote "She Blinded Me With Science" so he could direct a video about a home for deranged scientists.

Songs about drugs, revolution and greed that have been used in commercials for sneakers, jeans, fast food, cruises and cars.

Rupert crafted hits for Tina Turner, Howard Jones and The Fixx.

These overtly religious songs crossed over to the pop charts, despite resistance from fans, and in many cases, churches.
