Starstruck
Nashville and Babydolls
So don't let me sleep
I've got a promise to keep
You will be on my mind
Saying "be strong in this fight"
Carrying me through these troubled times
So wake me up in Nashville 'cause it's where I want to be
And I will meet you on the platform at 3:15
And I will look into your eyes in the fading Autumn lights
Wake me up in Nashville
Let me hold you tonight
Well I'm pulling into Nashville
And that's where I want to be
I've got 15 seconds 'till I see you
And I'll hold you tenderly
And he says "Sir you must wake i've made a terrible mistake"
Well now it's 4am you said on you I could depend
From Pensacola onto journey's end
So wake me up in Nashville 'cause it's where I want to be
And I will meet you on the platform at 3:15
And I will look into your eyes in the fading Autumn lights
Wake me up in Nashville
Let me hold you tonight
(written and sung by Sam Palladio)
Shannon closed her eyes as the last notes of the song played through her headphones in the recording booth. She waited for the “recording” sign to turn off as she took of her headphones. The sign went dark and she left the booth.
“That was perfect.” The producer said as Shannon walked over to the mix table.
“Awesome.” She smiled. Clare Bowen smiled at her from the couch. She was the only other girl in the studio today.
“Thats a wrap on Daisy Howe.” The producer said. “See you tomorrow to film.” He shook Shannon’s hand. Daisy was Shannon’s character on Nashville.
“Thank you.” Shannon smiled. “I’ll see you tomorrow.” She walked over to the couch where Clare was sitting.
“See you tomorrow!” Clare squeezed her hand.
“I’m so excited.” Shannon grinned.

Shannon swayed barefoot in her lace babydoll dress as she waited on the set for someone to tell her what to do. She had learned that it was a good way to handle things on set. Connie Britton came over and stood next to her. “How’d your scene go?” She asked.
“It went well. I like Johnathan.”
“Please honey, call him Johnny. He likes it better.” She laughed.
“Okay.” She smiled as someone from makeup came over and touched her up. “Looks like I’m n again in a second.”
“Scene six! With Avery, Daisy, and Juliette! I need you all on now!” The director called as the crew members rushed around lighting the set for the new scene. Shannon smiled at Connie as she headed over to start her scene.
