Ivan & Alyosha is a folk-pop, indie, rock band from Seattle, Washington. Formed in 2007 with the current members, Tim Wilson and Ryan Carbary. They were later joined by Pete Wilson (Tim’s brother) and Tim Kim. In 2009 the band was recognized nationally by NPR during their coverage of SXSW. Ivan & Alyosha was formed by Tim Wilson and Ryan Carbary in 2007. The two met while working on other projects and soon found themselves working exclusively with each other. Together they decided to go into the studio to record. Their first release was an extended play, “The Verse, the Chorus,” produced by Eli Thomson in Los Angeles, California. At the time the band did not have a name, but during a discussion about the nameless project Eli Thompson suggested “Ivan and Alyosha” from the ‘Brothers Karamazov’. The two original members were fans of the genre and the name stuck.[1] Ivan & Alyosha performed in Texas at SXSW 2010. Wikipedia®.

Ivan & Alyosha – Be Your Man Lyrics:
I want to be the man
To give you all the presents
Underneath your Christmas tree
They’re all from me
And I wanna be the boy
Who’d run and tell his baby
Every time he skims his knee
Or breaks his toy
[Chorus:]
I wanna be your boy
Be your boy
Be your boy
I wanna be your boy
Be your boy
Be your boy
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And I want to be the man
Who understands his woman
And you know she’d do right by me
You understand?
And I wanna be the boy
Who gets you all the pretty little things
In your magazines
Oh, it’s such a joy
[Chorus:]
I wanna be your boy
Be your boy
Be your boy
I wanna be your boy
Be your boy
Be your boy
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And I want to be the man
Who understands his woman
And you know she’d do right by me
Oh, you understand?
[Chorus:]
I wanna be your man.
Be your man.
Be your man.
I wanna be your man.
Be your man.
Be your man.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
