----Lisa Loeb's Stay (I Missed You) cover version by Maria Celeste Cel Garcia webcam video December 23, 2009, 12:18 AM---- (lyrics below information about the song)

"Stay (I Missed You)" is a song by Lisa Loeb, which became her breakthrough song in 1994. It was included on the Reality Bites* soundtrack, as well as her debut album, Tails.

"Stay" ultimately went on to become a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, earning her the distinction of being the only artist to top the U.S. chart before being signed to any record label. The song reached number six on the UK Singles Chart and even performed the song on Top of the Pops. It also peaked at number 14 on the New Zealand RIANZ Top 40.

"Stay" later placed 93rd on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the 90's.

Lisa Anne Loeb (born March 11, 1968) is an American singer-songwriter and actress. She launched her career in 1994 with the song, "Stay (I Missed You)". She was the first artist to have a number one single while not signed to a recording contract.

*((Reality Bites is a film shown in 1994 directed by Ben Stiller and starring Winona Ryder, Ethan Hawke & Janeane Garofalo. In the movie, Generation X Graduates face life after college with a filmmaker looking for work and love in Houston.)

The music video was directed by Ethan Hawke, and features Loeb (wearing a black dress and her trademark horn-rimmed glasses) singing the lyrics while walking around in the empty New York City apartment in which she lived at the time. The video can be described as simple as there are no use of any visual or audio effects.

According to VH1 show Pop-Up Video, the video was filmed in just two separate takes.

"Stay" was covered in 2006 by Filipino singer Chris Cayzer for his self-titled debut album.

In 2007, it was covered by pop-punk band New Found Glory for From the Screen to Your Stereo Part II and featured Loeb on supporting vocals.

Sarah Silverman performed a cover version of the song in an episode from the second season of The Sarah Silverman Program.

Song Lyrics to "Stay(I Missed You)"

You say I only hear what I want to
You say I talk so all the time so

And I thought what I felt was simple
And I thought that I don't belong
And now that I am leaving
Now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you
Yeah yeah, I missed you

You say I only hear what I want to:
I don't listen hard, don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
To anyone, anywhere
I don't understand if you really care,
I'm only hearing negative
No, No, No, Bad

So I, I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up (turn the radio)
And this woman was singing my song:
Lover's in love and the other's run away
Lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay
Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
Dying since the day they were born
Well, well, this is not that
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown

And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure
You try to tell me that I'm clever
But that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you

You said that I was naive and I thought that I was strong
I thought, "hey, I can leave, I can leave."
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you
Yeah, I miss you

You said, "You caught me 'cause you want me and one day you'll let me go
"You try to give away a keeper, or keep me
'Cause you know you're just so scared to lose
And you say, "Stay."

You say I only hear what I want to
