SKYWAY, FIFTEEN: “SMILE”
I got my tattoo a whole month ago, and feels as if it’s yesterday, but I love it. Today is a busy day, we’re having loads of interviews and we have to go into the studio later today. We arrive at Capital FM, where we’ll be having our first interview today, with Lisa and Dave at Capital Breakfast. It will also be the first play of our new single You Always Make Me Smile.
You’re probably confused, and I get it. The fanfic used names of songs that we said will be on our second album in the fanfic itself, without hearing it. But yeah, the only single that is out yet is I Love You, and You Always Make Me Smile is up next.
We quickly get in the building as we’re already late, the interview starts in two minutes. Michael and Phil are at Kiss FM, and Jim and I are here, at Capital. We sit down behind a mic. –‘And Emeli and Jim has arrived, hello!’ Dave says happily. –‘Good morning!’ –‘So, first play of your new song, ay? Nervous?’ –‘No, I’m not really nervous, more excited,’ Jim replies. –‘Okay, we have a few questions for you guys! First, Emeli, who is your girl crush?’ That question always makes me laugh as I’m 100% gay, so basically every crush of mine is a girl crush, get it? –‘My girl crush… Can I pass?’ –‘No! Answer it!’ –‘Alright, alright… err… my girlcrush is… Mila Kunis, I guess?’ –‘How do you feel about dating fans? Jim?’ –‘I think it would be quite weird and awkward, like on dates you wouldn’t even have to tell something about yourself as they already know everything about you, do you get it?’ –‘Yeah, I do. And you, Emeli?’ –‘I wouldn’t mind, I mean, love is love, if it’s a fan or not.’ –‘YES!’ shouts Dave, -‘A good answer! So Skyway fans, try and flirt with her!’ I laugh loudly. –‘Anyways… It’s time!’ –‘That’s not the title of our song!’ –‘I know, I know. You Always Make Me Smile, Jim, Emeli, to you the honour of announcing the song.’ –‘Hi, we’re Skyway-’ says Jim. –‘And this is our brand new single You Always Make Me Smile!’
I like your messy hair,
I like the clothes you wear,
I like the way you sing,
And when you dance with me
(Ready, set, here we go)
I don’t know why, I love you
I just know I can’t stop thinking about you
Oh wait! Oh, oh, oh
It’s cause you make me smile
Oh, oh, oh, oh
It’s cause you make me smile
I like that rainbow pair
Of gym shoes that you wear
I like the chance you take,
I like the mess you make
I don’t know why, I love you
I just know I can’t stop thinking about you
Oh wait! Oh, oh, oh
It’s cause you make me smile
Oh, oh, oh, oh
It’s cause you make me smile*
We come home to see Phil and Michael waiting for us. –‘How did it go?’ I ask them, hesitantly. –‘It went great. Do you want a cuppa?’ Michael asks, quickly changing the subject. –‘Yes, please,’ is my answer as I decide to go along with it. –‘Jake says we’ve got a meeting tomorrow at nine in the main building, Sir Johnson’s office,’ I inform. -‘Why?’ –‘I haven’t got a clue, Jake didn’t text the reason. I guess we’ll find out tomorrow.’ –‘I want to go out tonight!’ shouts Michael faintly from the kitchen. –‘Okay, I think that’s a great idea actually. Phil, you pick the club, I bet you know one, you party animal,’ I say jokingly, even though he actually is one. –‘He’s an animal, woah, a party animal!’ I sing, sprinting out of the room, upstairs, into my room and lock the door.
