相关介绍：来自北卡罗莱纳州的Chris从未接受过唱歌训练，直到高中时期受到摇滚乐影响才踏入音乐领域，已为人父的Chris在2005年参加摇滚乐团INXS主唱选秀会不幸落败后，决定参加[美国偶像]歌唱选秀比赛，希望籍此让更多人了解他的唱歌才华。特色十足的有型外貌与爆发度满分的演唱实力，让Chris一路过关斩将打进决赛前十二强，并拥有极高人气支持。比赛尚未结束，Chris便找来Jeremy Brady与Josh Steely、Josh Paul及Joey Barnes等成员组成Daughtry乐团，期盼展现创作身兼乐器演奏的全方位才情。

歌词：

Song：What I Meant to Say
Artist：Daughtry

I woke up today
Sinkin' like the stones that you have thrown
Wounded by the same old shots you take
It's easier to kick me when I'm low

And I just thought that you should know
That I've been holding on while you've been letting go
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry,
But that's not what I meant to say

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I'm strong enough to say
That I don't wanna take the high road now
So typical of you to walk away
When your perfect little world is burning down.

And I just thought that you should know
That I've been holding on while you've been letting go
Can I be so bold¹?
'Cause all this sucking up to you is just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry,
But that's not what I meant to say.

What I really meant to say
With every little breath I take
I'm not the only one who makes mistakes
Just think of all the ones you've made

And I just thought that you should know
That I've been holding on while you've been letting go
Can I be so bold?
'Cause all this sucking up to you is just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry,
But that's not what I meant to say.
Not what I meant to say
Can I be so bold?
'Cause all this sucking up to you is just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry,
But that's not what I meant to say.
