Placebo - Running Up That Hill

It doesn't hurt me.
You wanna feel how it feels?
You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
You wanna hear about the deal I'm making?
You *be running up that hill*
You and me *be running up that hill*

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...

You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder.
There is thunder in our hearts, baby.
So much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?

You, *be running up that hill*
You and me, *be running up that hill*
You and me won't be unhappy.

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
If I only could, oh...

'C'mon, baby, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience, oh...'

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems. x2

'If I only could, be running up that hill.' x7

This is one of the rare times where the cover is better than the original... in my opinion

[Katie S]

Nice try smart ass, it was the first single from Kate Bush's 1985 album Hounds of Love. Faith and the Muse covered it in 2001. Your a little off time-wise.

[Irvin R. Lópex]

I love this song ♥.♥

[Strength RD]

When i heard this is thought the singer was american... im so surprised they are English!

[FatalBadGirlsClub]

I don't think their comparable, their both great in and were both done in different ways; perfecting them.

* smart arse

[Yogi Narkac]

me too



[Sandra Szczepańska]

Let me steal this moment from you now

[Nikolas Korakidis]

You are absolutely right

[TheKingOfPoop100]

Bit offensive, considering nobody can ever beat Kate Bush EVER. She is the most incredible musical artist of all time... but this is still amazing, Placebo are a brilliant band, but they've had better songs than this cover.... just like Kate's had better songs than the original of this.

Listened to this song for days when my friend died.
