Michael Hutchence - Slide Away (feat. Bono)

Song written by Michael Hutchence and Andy Gill, from the album 'Michael Hutchence', released in 1999

Unofficial video by 'Lobo Producciones', Mendoza, Argentina

Lyric:

Are you gonna wake again?
Are you gonna take it down?
Oh babe, I don't wanna deal it
Oh, make it alright
Gimme some, my love
Away, away, away

I just want to slide away and come alive again
I just want to slide away and come alive again
I will see that love again, and find a life again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I wanted to let it go
Just couldn't let it go
I wanted to let it go
Just couldn't let you go

I would catch you
(Just couldn't let you go)
I'd catch you as you fall
(Just couldn't let it go)
I would catch you
(Just couldn't let you go)
I'd catch you if I heard your call

But you tore a hole in space
Like a dark star, falls from grace
You burn across the sky
And I would find you wings to fly
And I would catch you
I would catch your fall

I just want to slide away and come alive again
I just want to slide away and come alive again
I will see that love again, and find a life again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I just want to slide away and come alive again
I just want to slide away and come alive again
I will see that love again, and find a life again
I just wanna slide away and come alive again

Beautiful song. Beautiful Michael.

Always makes me sad though because Michael was so sad when he sang this..

[runehede]

Agree! What I told some message right down, I've also been down long time. It goes better to me now, but I'm still down sometimes this days. It was so sad he did suicide, but I understand his feelings like this: "I just want to slide away and come alive again". It's so painful feelings, and it's hard to accept this feelings. But I'd never had to do suicide, because I know my family and my friends loves me, even I can't feel it. :-)

It's not a question what I think in this way when I'm down, but what other people think to me, and it's beautiful and very encouraging to know.

So don't take it so hard as it seems to do, it's better to try to move on. :-)

This is my favorite song with Michael Hutchence, so that's why I wanted to share it on my channel. :-)

And YES, Hutchence and Bono is fantastic in this song, the best two frontman I know have been on this earth.

You can hear Hutchence is very depressed in this song. I've also been depressed for long time, but it seems to being better with me. :-) But this songs helps me when I'm down ;-).

I wish he could come back. R.I.P.

This song is so soul wrenchingly amazing. It is so nice to have Bono sing to his bud in the beyond. Simply Beautiful.

@essy111 Takes one to know one they always say. So what if they did, still awesome music, that is after all why we are still watching this over a decade on.

@essy111 that's because you are a dim bulb ..just listen to the song and quit making silly assumptions..who gives a fuck who they slept with ? keep your homophobia to yourself..or embrace it and go smoke a big hairy pole.
