Stevie Wonder : "Superstition" Lyrics and Video

Stevie Wonder - Superstition

"Superstition" lyrics
by Stevie Wonder

Very superstitious, writing's on the wall,
Very superstitious, ladders bout' to fall,
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass
Seven years of bad luck, the good things in your past.

Ooo
When you believe in things that you don't understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain't the way

Very superstitious, wash your face and hands,
Rid me of the problem, do all that you can,
Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong,
You don't wanna save me, sad is my song.

When you believe in things that you don't understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain't the way, yeh, yeh.

Very superstitious, nothin' more to say,
Very superstitious, the devil's on his way,
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass,
Seven years of bad luck, good things in your past

When you believe in things that you don't understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain't the way, no, no, no
shut up!
     "Superstition" is a popular song written, produced, arranged, and performed by Stevie Wonder for Motown Records in 1972, when Wonder was 22 years old. It was the lead single for Wonder's Talking Book album, and released in many countries. It reached number one in theUSA, and number one on the soul singles chart. Overseas, it peaked number eleven in the UK during February 1973. In November 2004, Rolling Stone ranked the song at #74 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song deals with superstitions, and mentions several popular superstitious fables in its lyrics.
     Wonder's music had been undergoing a marked change from his earlier fit with the Motown Sound to a more personal style. This shift had been evident on his two prior albums, Where I'm Coming From and Music of My Mind, but it was Talking Book and "Superstition" that brought the new style to the awareness of the public in general.
     "Superstition" is immediately recognizable for its opening drum beat, which was performed by Wonder, complete with a noticeable bass-drum pedal squeak throughout the track. Its iconic funky clavinet riff was performed by Wonder, while the electronic Arp and Moogsynthesizer sounds were created by Malcolm Cecil and Robert Margouleff. The song also features trumpet and saxophone, played respectively by Steve Madaio and Trevor Laurence. (source: Wikipedia)

"Juliet" lyrics
by Robin Gibb

I steal the night away
drivin' my life away dancin'
I was a Romeo
I knew the art of romancin'.
I was just one of the guys and I thought I had it made.
I needed someone to show me
how to love.

Juliet
oh Juliet
the night was magic when we first met.
Juliet
oh Juliet
you know you taught me to fly.
You take me clear to the sky
and all the people around the world can
Stand aside
for me and my baby - Juliet.

Fighting with destiny
fortune and fame but kept losin'.
Playin' a joker's game
only myself I was foolin'.

I was an average guy in a world of empty dreams.
You've broken down all the walls
with your love.

Juliet
oh Juliet
this guy's in love with you don't forget.
Juliet
oh Juliet
you know you taught me to fly
you take me clear to the sky
And all the People around the world can stand aside.
Close your eyes
Juliet
don't let go.
On and on our love is like the sun
it keeps on goin' strong like eternity.
I wanna love you in my life
sweet Juliet.
Livin' without love in my life
my girl Juliet.

Juliet
oh Juliet
this guy's in love with you don't forget. . ..
Juliet
oh Juliet
this guy's in love with you don't forget. . ..
Juliet
I oh Juliet.

Inflation, flirtation, relaxation, elation
Generation of an electric youth

     "Electric Youth" is the seventh single from American singer-songwriter-actress Deborah Gibson, and the second from her second album Electric Youth (LP 81932). Produced by Fred Zarr and engineered by Phil Castellano for BiZarr Music, Inc., it became one of her most famous songs, peaking at number eleven on the Billboard Hot 100 and fourteen on the UK Singles ChartDouglas Breitbart was executive producer.
     Gibson had written the song as a statement about how young people of that era were seen and how their ideas were often ignored. As a teenager herself, she was a firm believer that the beliefs and ideas held by young people were just as important as those held by adults and the song reminded people of this. It also reminded them that the current youth would become the next generation of adults.
The video accompanying the song was nominated for a Moonman at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards for Best Art Direction in a video. (source: Wikipedia)

"I Think We're Alone Now" lyrics
by Tiffany

Children behave
that's what they say when we're together

And watch how you play
they don't understand.

And so we're running just as fast as we can

Holding on to one another's hand.
Trying to get away into the night

And then you put your arms around me
and we stumbled to the ground

And then you say:
I think we're alone now
it doesn't seem to be anyone around.
I think we're alone now

the beating of our hearts is the only sound.

Look at the way
we gotta hide what we're doin'

'Cause what would they say if they ever knew?

And so we're running just as fast as we can. . .

I think we're alone now
it doesn't seem to be anyone around.
I think we're alone now

the beating of our hearts is the only sound.

Running just as fast as we can. . .

I think we're alone now

it doesn't seem to be anyone around. . . .
I think we're alone now

it doesn't seem to be anyone around. . . .
I think we're alone now

it doesn't seem to be anyone around. . . .
Tiffany - I Think We're Alone Now (image via wikipedia)
     "I Think We're Alone Now" was a 1967 hit for Tommy James & the Shondells, reaching #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 during a 17-week stay. The recording was produced by Ritchie Cordell and Bo Gentry.
     The song was re-popularized when American singer Tiffany covered the song for her first album Tiffany (1987). Tiffany's version of the song spent two weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 (and was unusually followed on the top spot by another Tommy James & the Shondells cover, "Mony Mony" by Billy Idol) and three weeks at #1 on the UK Singles Chart. The video was shot in a shopping mall which echoed the way her early career had been promoted. Elements of the video were filmed in the now demolished Bullring Centre in BirminghamUK.
     When George Tobin, Tiffany's manager, gave Tiffany the cassette of the original version by Tommy James & the Shondells, Tiffany hated the idea of recording a version of her own for her album mostly because she thought the song wasn't modern or hip enough. It turned out to be her biggest hit once she recorded it.
     "I Think We're Alone Now" was not the first single off Tiffany's debut album. The first single was "Danny," but radio started picking up "I Think We're Alone Now," another track on the album. It became a runaway #1 hit and was the eighteenth highest selling single for 1987and the thirty-second highest selling single in Australia for 1988. (source: Wikipedia)

"Boys Do Fall In Love" lyrics
by Robin Gibb

Baby said

you got to be a lover one way or the other.

Nobody wins without once givin' in
so don't cry now
don't cry now.
Love is just a game you play in high school
girls know how to be cruel
Most of the time girls are cruel to be kind
so don't cry now
don't cry 
And we try to be cool as we dance in a crowded room

At the end of the day makin' love to the paper moon
and she said -
Boys do fall in love
they make time
makin' love on a Saturday night.
And she said
hearts will be as they dance in the street to a radio -
Oh
boys fall in love.
Baby knows I like to be excited
no one wants to fight it.
It's getting late so I'll just demonstrate
don't cry now
don't cry now.
And we try to be cool as we dance in a crowded room.
At the end of the day makin' love to a paper moon
she said -
Boys do fall in love
they make time
makin' love on a Saturday night. .
Boys do fall in love
they make time
makin' love on a Satuday night. .

Boys   boys oh boys
boys   boys oh oh

Boys  boys  boys oh  oh
boys  boys  boys  oh  oh.


Boys do fall in love
they make time
makin' love on a Saturday night. .
Boys do fall in love
they make time
makin' love on a Saturday night. 
"Boys Do Fall In Love" is a 1984 single by British musician Robin Gibb, from his 1984 third solo album Secret Agent.

Desert Rose (Sting) - lyrics video

"Desert Rose" lyrics
by Sting

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothing's as it seems

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes
This rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower
This rare perfume, is the sweet intoxication of the fall

"It Will Rain" lyrics
by Bruno Mars

If you ever leave me baby, leave some morphine at my door,
Cuz it would take a whole lot of medication,
To realise what we used to have, we don’t have it anymore.

There’s no religion that could save me, no matter how long my leaves are on the floor.(ooooh) so keep in mind all the sacrifices I’m making, to keep you by my side, and keep you from walking out the door

Cuz there’ll be no sunlight, if I lose you baby.
There’ll be no clear skies, if I lose you baby.
Just like the clouds pass, I would do the same,
If you walk away, everything will rain, rain, rain.

(ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh)

I’ll never be your mother's favourite; your daddy can’t even look me in the eye.
(ooooh) if I was in their shoes id be doing the same thing, saying there goes my little girl, walking with that troublesome guy.

But they're just afraid of something they can’t understand,
(ooooh) but little darling watch me change their minds.
Yeah for you, I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try,
I’ll pick up these broken pieces till I’m bleeding, if that’ll make it right.

Cuz there’ll be no sunlight, if I lose you baby.
There’ll be no clear skies, if I lose you baby.
Just like the clouds pass, I would do the same,
If you walk away, everything will rain, rain, rain.

(Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh)

(Ooooh) Don’t you say, goodbye, don’t you say, goodbye,
I’ll pick up these broken pieces till I’m bleeding, if that’ll make it right.

Cuz there’ll be no sunlight, if I lose you baby.
There’ll be no clear skies, if I lose you baby.
Just like the clouds pass, I would do the same,
If you walk away, everything will rain, rain, rain.

(ooooh, ooooh, ooooh)

Ooh ooh

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling

Rick Astley- Never Gonna Give You UP
(image via wikipedia)
     "Never Gonna Give You Up" is a song written and produced by Stock, Aitken & Waterman and sung by English singer Rick Astley. The song was released as the first single from Astley's multi-million selling debut album, Whenever You Need Somebody. The song was a worldwide number-one hit, initially in the singer's native United Kingdom in 1987, where it stayed at number one for five weeks and was the best-selling single of that year. It eventually topped the charts in 25 countries, including the US and Germany.
The song won Best British Single at the 1988 Brit Awards. The music video for the song has become the basis for the "RickrollingInternet meme.
     In the "Never Gonna Give You Up" music video, directed by Simon West, and edited by Robert Bannochie, a smiling Astley sings and dances to the song in various outfits and venues in west London, sometimes accompanied by backup dancers. A bartender played by Clive Clarke gradually shifts from casually noticing Astley's singing to being fully engrossed in the song with energetic acrobatic moves. The athletic exertion of many of the other dancers also becomes more intense over the course of Astley's performance.(source:Wikipedia)

"Shape of My Heart" lyrics
by Sting

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for respect 

He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one 

Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

"Swear It Again" lyrics
by Westlife


I wanna know 
Who ever told you I was letting go 
Of the only joy that I have ever known 
Girl, they're lying 

Just look around 
And all of the people that we used to know 
Have just given up, they wanna let it go 
But we're still trying 

So you should know this love we share was never made to die 
I'm glad we're on this one way street just you and I 
Just you and I 

I'm never gonna say goodbye 
Cos I never wanna see you cry 
I swore to you my love would remain 
And I swear it all over again and I 
I'm never gonna treat you bad 
Cos I never wanna see you sad 
I swore to share your joy and your pain 
And I swear it all over again 

All over again 

Some people say 
That everything has got its place in time 
Even the day must give way to the night 
But I'm not buying 
Cos in your eyes 
I see a love that burns eternally 
And if you see how beautiful you are to me 
You'll know I'm not lying 

Sure there'll be times we wanna say goodbye 
But even if we try 
There are something's in this life won't be denied 
Won't be denied 

 I'm never gonna say goodbye
Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy and your pain
And I swear it all over again 

The more I know of you is the more I know I love you 
And the more that I'm sure I want you forever and ever more 
The more that you love me, the more that I know 
Oh that I'm never gonna let you go 
Gotta let you know that I 

I'm never gonna say goodbye
Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy and your pain
And I swear it all over again

let the sun shine
let the rivers run away
coz its a beautiful day now

took a train at a station
and almost lost my patience coz i was waiting

now im waitin in vain
just to see your face
is this the one that im supposed to be afraid of
is this the one that im supposed to be ashamed of
hard as a rock not soft like play-do
everytime i hear a song playing on the radio

let the wind blow
let the wind touch my face
i wanna take a little break now
shake now
this is what i have to say
i feel so fine
so fine that it blows my mind
tell the truth
when will you be mine

and in my dream you are so real
so it seems
inside my head a giant screen
plays every scene
while i scream
i feel you everytime i go to sleep
wake up in the middle of the night
and i weep
gotta be mine
that girl is so fine
girl be mine
girl be mine
all it takes is a matter of time

and in my dream you are so real
or so it seems
inside my head a giant screen
plays every scene
so you see
i feel you everytime i go to sleep
all it takes is a matter of time
tell the truth
will youl be mine

let the rivers run away
coz its a beautiful day now
to play now
as i close my eyes and pray

Westlife - Flying Without Wings lyrics


"Flying Without Wings" lyrics
by Westlife

Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be

Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing?
You're flying without wings

Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary lives
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry

You'll find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

So impossible as it may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
'Cause who's to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete

Well, for me, it's waking up beside you
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say, "I love you"
In any given time or place

Gives me the wings that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
'Cause you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings

And you're the place my life begins
And you'll be where it ends
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings

Biography (from westlife official website)
     “We know we can sing. That’s the easy part,” says Shane Filan, one quarter of the most successful boy band of the last decade.
     Twelve years, ten albums and 44million sales into their career, Westlife came to a crossroads earlier this year.
     Did they stick to the winning formula that had produced 14 No1s (only three less than The Beatles), or tear themselves away from their comfort zone, shred the rule book and start again?
     The latter, as it happens. And in emphatic style.
     The quartet’s eleventh offering, Gravity, sees the Irishmen sail into uncharted waters, wrestle an unprecedented level of creative control and most critically of all – start believing in themselves again.
     “It’s a really good album,” insists Nicky Byrne. “It’s one producer. It’s one sound. Maybe it’s taken us twelve years to get there. But it doesn’t matter. We’re here now.
     “It’s the kind of record we knew we could make and we just needed the right person to deliver it with us.”
     And that individual was legendary producer John Shanks. He steered Take That’s last two collections, was responsible for Bon Jovi’s recent reinvention and sculpted some of Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion and Sheryl Crow’s most enduring hits.
 
     As sessions sprang into life this summer, first in London and then Los Angeles, it quickly became clear that the recording process would be radically different from anything the lads had ever done before.
     Nicky recalls, “From day one John said, ‘I’m not going to be ringing Shane up and saying I want him in on Wednesday lunchtime and Kian in on Friday morning.
     “If I’m going to do this, we’re all going to be in the studio together.’
     “That was the first time anyone had ever said that to us. He made us feel like a real band again.”
     And injecting that sense of coherence, togetherness and freedom was critical for the group. 
     They had to confront some painful truths about how much creative steam they were lacking.
     Shane admits, “We made some choices over recent years that we weren’t happy with. We got to a point where we were selling so much, we didn’t think twice about doing a Rat Pack album or an album of covers of love songs. They were selling millions, but we eventually realised we needed some original songs again.
     “For us to keep going as a band, for us to remain excited, we had to write our own material, not just record other people’s songs.”
     And collaborating with Shanks saw the lads flex song-writing muscles that had been little-employed over the previous decade.
     Nicky explains: “It’s not like it was in the past where we had a lot of covers. John insisted we get involved. Now we’ve got an album of twelve tracks and four are co-written.”
     Shane reiterates: “It was very natural the way we bonded with John. He really wanted to get us involved in each song.  We really feel like we’ve made this album together. We were there from the start to the finish. It feels like we were in the happiest place we have ever been making an album.”
     Yet, one track confronts one of the most painful experiences two of the lads’ had ever gone through. 
     Kian and Nicky’s respective fathers both passed away over the last twelve months and they explore their grief in the most personal song the group have ever recorded.
     Too Hard To Say Goodbye is a tender, tear-jerking ballad that many will identify with.
     “Myself and Kian lost our dads last year. My dad died of a heart attack over night and Kian’s dad died over the course of a year” says Nicky. “We were discussing the loss with John over lunch one day and he said, ‘Let’s write a song about it’. We had tears in our eyes when we were putting it together. But it’s one song we’re all really, especially proud of.”
     Elsewhere on the collection can be found the results of a conscious effort to erase some of the preconceptions that have weighed heavily around the four piece’s necks for many a year.
     Nicky explains, “I’m not boring. I know I’m not boring. 
     “I’ve never liked the fact we got tarred with the brush that we were just these four lads who sit on stools, wear suits and sing slow songs.”
     Beautiful Tonight echoes the crisp, euphoric electronic pop of Erasure, claims Shane, while banger No One’s Gonna Sleep Tonight is “Westlife does the Black Eyed Peas.”
     “We’re twelve years in and all at least thirty years of age,” says Mark Feehily. “We could all go home now and we’d be alright for the rest of our lives.
     “So, if we are going to make more records we want to do it well otherwise we don’t want to do it at all.”
     And Gravity shows these four individuals to be men of their words...
Westlife’s album ‘Gravity’ is out on the 22nd November
