Like everyone out here, been looking for this one for FOREVER! Slept on getting this version when it came out. Isn't there a Tears For Fears remix also?
I have had this cd since it came out. The whole thing is great. At the time I was going through some things and this song help me to put them in perspective. I pulled out the cd a few months ago and it is still relevant for me today. Besides that what a voice what a voice what a voice!!!!!!!
OMG! I love Oleta and this song is such a classic, the lyrics are amazing: "give the girl a future, give her what she needs, teach her lifes a long flat road, maybe she'll have better luck than me..." Thanks for posting this song!
Thank You Jeff Young of the BBC 1's Big Beat on a Friday Night who introduced this to my ears, it got purchased the next day and played to death at the Three Tuns and Twentys Bar, Kavos, Corfu and chilled the many and got the heads ringing when nothing else could.
@pcpwoblar I remember listening to Jeff Young's Big Beat Show on Radio 1 too - before it morphed into Pete Tong's Essential Selection! Used to LOVE it. :)
Thanx 4 uploading this. I've heard this over Muzak many times yet couldn't decipher the words. Now I know them. I love this song with a deep passion! Thanx 4 doing this.
God sent her us u and I peolple that Listens 2 these Angel that come 2 earth. So i never say Her Rachelle Ferrell Angela Bofil, Chante Moore,and This list goes on. As long as theres an U and I and others that wake up and depend on great Instruments then Their blessing are fulfill. I love and support real "Musicians and Artist". Not these Crash Dummies, Money making Artist thats in it 4 the money and fame.
I hear u tash!! Glad u mentioned Rachelle, she too is a vocal beast lol! I just love good PURE singing. Oleta, Rachelle, Anita, Patti etc. are those I truly enjoy. They can sing me too sleep lol!
I really love this song. I'm from Argentina and here it wasn't a hit song, only a few of us were blessed by listening this song. Thanks. (sorry for my English)
