  • HQ audio only. Looks like it may be '89 - thanks etnopolino. No copyright infringement intended. From an old cassette of fm broadcast, wanted to share it with fans, especially as PY and his wonderful voice are no longer with us.

    Another day has passed me by
    And there's an island in the sun
    To see me through
    Another day in paradise
    But there's no reason, there's no rhyme
    Without you
    Here comes the night (night)
    Here comes the dreaming of you
    Breathing your love in me
    Here comes the night (night)
    Here comes the feeling I've been
    Waiting here for so long
    I've been waiting here for so long
    There's a time and there's a place
    When we can share the silver night
    Silent room
    In my bed an empty space
    Cos there's no other in my life
    Only you
    Here comes the night (night)
    Here comes the dreaming of you
    Breathing your love in me
    Here comes the night (night)
    Here comes the feeling I've been
    Waiting here for so long
    I've been waiting here for so long
    Here comes the night
    Here comes the dreaming of you
    Breathing your love in me
    Here comes the night (night)
    Here comes the feeling I've been
    Waiting here for so long
    I've been waiting here for so long

    Paul Carrack could sing the phone book or ingredients from a cereal box and make it sound inspired and soulful and Paul Young is sorely missed. His was an extremely gifted and underrated vocalist. His untimely death was a tragedy and great blow to the group.

    Aunque soy muy Macho ,,,, cada ves que escucho esta JOYA de canción me trae recuerdos de mi Juventud cuando andaba de novio con una mujer que ahora no supe más de ella , solo DIOS SANTO SAVE cuanto nos quisimos ,,,y solo me queda recordar y porque no decirlo, ,, llorar .

      @KBAFourthtime Před 3 lety +1

      @@kaveman1021 Well, it was an unfinished "bit" meant for Genesis, but none of its members liked it except for Mike Rutherford, so Collins and Tony Banks allowed him to use it for the Mechanics, with some help adding to it.

      @@ldolphin34 "A Call to Arms" was also NOT sung (lead) by either of the two Pauls (Carrack or Young). It was originally sung by Gene Stashuck. Both Gene Stashuck and John Kirby were dropped after this album.

      @mikerconway Před 5 lety +1

      songsfinallyuploaded Paul Carrack sings both the bridge and chorus with Gene singing verses only; as the most prominent, Paul Carrack is clearly the lead singer in Call To Arms.
