Not the lyric - when he's talking to the audience. I wonder if maybe the person who recorded it can remember or maybe someone's ears are working better than mine. Thanks anyway though!
I don't think I ever heard Russ Taff. I think I might have to download it and give it a listen. I like this song whoever sings it. It's just one of those cool songs
I Still Believe was co-written by Michael Been and Jon Goodwin of The Call for their 1986 album Reconciled. It was covered by Russ Taff on his eponymous debut album in 1987. Not that it matters, but I liked them both.
Thanks wiskerdad. We sort of got off topic discussing Taff's cover. That is my favorite Russ taff album - so real and raw. But Been and Goodwin wrote an AMAZING song here - i listen to it pretty much every day. (It plays on one of my Sims games :-) I have just declared my geekdom :-)) I like both versions too - you can tell they are both being lived, not just sung, if that makes sense.
THE greatest lyrical bands of the last 30 years. Not many bands if ANY, can write like Michael. The Call>>> tight musically, deep lyrically...awesome and powerful all around... UNIQUE in every aspect!
I saw them in Pittsburgh at a nightclub called THE METROPOL. I think 1987? Great concert. It was a tour for their "Let the day begin" album. They are amazing, I even caught (and still have) a drum stick thrown out to the crowd. I was standing directly in front of Michael as he worked the bass with his magic. So kool.

Yeah check it out! It came out I believe (umm, still :-)) in 1987. The record is eponymous, so just Russ Taff/Russ Taff :)

This is just one of those songs that sounds good no matter who sings it.

Who'd have thought of doing this song without bass - like doing "we will rock you" without drums!
