Over My Head


"Over My Head" by The Fray is a song written and performed in the original key of A major. It was released as the first single from their debut album "How to Save a Life" in 2005. The song was written by the band's lead vocalist Isaac Slade and guitarist Joe King. Interestingly, "Over My Head" wasn't initially intended to be on the album, but it was included because the label thought it had potential. The melody of the song is characterized by a heartfelt and emotive piano-driven sound, accompanied by poignant lyrics that explore themes of confusion and vulnerability in relationships.
