"Going Down In La La Land"
© 2010 MRIX MUZIK (ASCAP)
Words & Music by Carly Emerick & Hoyt Emerick
Verse 1:
Driving through my life invisible red lights
Have always tried to slow me down
The beauty and the beat, emotional retreat
Sinking on solid ground (yeah...)
Chorus:
I'm going down down down in la la land tonight...
Where the jungle is concrete, the streets are alive
And people will do anything to survive
I'm going down down down in la la land tonight...
I don't know if I'll make it through
Gonna try to make a dream come true in la la land
Verse 2:
Awake inside this dream, too many times I've seen
What's lost mistaken to be found
And somewhere in this heat, the past and future meet
A chance is always coming 'round (yeah...)
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
I wake inside a world of dreams,
Cast inside another scene
Reality just fades away in the city of LA
(Repeat Chorus)

The story behind the music:
_____________________________________________________________
In early 2010, Indie NYC film producer Casper Andreas contacted us about the possibility of composing the theme song for his upcoming screen adaptation of "Going Down in La La Land". His latest theatrical movie was going to be based on the novel written by Andy Zeffer.
Because of the success of his film "Between Love & Goodbye" and our involvement with the soundtrack, we couldn't help but to indulge once again. It was a huge compliment for us as songwriters to be approached like this and we were thrilled!
It didn't take long to dig deep with personal reflection and write the very first line... "Driving through my life invisible red lights have always tried to slow me down." It was a little scary for us sitting down to compose this piece because it was the first new song we wrote after taking a 7 year hiatus.
We produced about four different versions of this song. All of which were submitted but not approved. Mr. Andreas told us loved the song, however, he wanted something a little more upbeat with a faster tempo to end his movie with.
Running short on time and experiencing ear fatigue, we immediately contacted electropop recording artist, SIRPAUL. We needed a fresh production ear on this song and fast! With only a 24 hour deadline to place the song, SIRPAUL confidently stepped in and rose to the challenge! One day later, his stellar dance remix of "Going Down In La-La Land" was excitedly approved by Mr. Andreas! It was exactly what he was looking for! Hooray!
We wanted to shine a light on our songwriters original version of the song. We are very proud of this production and wanted to put it out there. So, without further adieu, here is our own very special release of "Going Down In La-La Land" with the amazing Trym Killi on lead vocals.
Thanks always for your love & continued support of our band project Candy Apple Blue. ~ Sincerely, Hoyt & Carly
