- I've been living with a lie for so long now, baby
I gotta set my soul free, I can't take it no more
That's why I gotta
Sing and shout it, tell the world about it
The truth is sweet
Sing and shout it, tell the world about it
The truth is sweet
I made a promise to myself not to let nobody else
Have any sway on the way I lived my life
I didn't see the need to compromise but now I've come to realize
That living is more than just surviving
And I've been lying to myself, I gotta cover up what I feel
But now it's time I must admit this is real, this is real
The truth is sweet
Just like honey from a bee, the truth is sweet
So many people in the world let it all pass them by, pass them by
They won't admit they need to be rescued from their lonely lives
That's why we gotta sing and shout it tell the world about it
The truth is sweet
Sing and shout it, tell the world about it
The truth is sweet
When you've been hurt so many times it's enough to make you blind
To anything that feels like true happiness
Nobody wants to be the foolish one but after all is said and done
You constantly settle for less
It's like a broken carousel, it just goes round & round & round
But now it's time you admit you've lost ground
Hear that sound?
The truth is sweet
Just like a baby's kiss, the truth is sweet
Go on admit it, you know you want it to be true
Go on admit it, you say you don't but you know you do
Go on admit it, you've been disguising what you feel
You might be living in a fantasy
But then that fantasy could turn out to be real
Sweet and true like my love for you baby,
Oh yeah
And everybody in the world's gonna wake up some day
Singing love is the answer, love is the answer
what's left to say
Sing and shout it, tell the world about it
The truth is sweet
What's left to say? - Hudba
That was 2007 i was 4 and my dad who listen rock music put this in car♥️🥺
That bass line...wow. What a phenomenal songwriter, musician, artist. So brilliant!
Thanks for posting. G L O R I O U S !
Cannot believe that in 2020, I am discovering this song! I heard him play it with Daryl Hall on the LFDH they did at Todd's house in Hawaii. Can't believe this wasn't all over the radio in its day.
One of his best albums.
Yeah, a little gem. speaks to a godless humanist like myself.
My TODD...THE truth is sweet!
I had forgotten just how good this is -musically, lyrically - Top Todd
The most intriguing thing here for me is how he keeps the same bass line throughout all the chord changes except the bridge. Amazing!
How can TR be so good so often? Amazing song writer, singer, guitarist and pianist: then you have his vocals!
Saw Rundgren last week in Charlotte. He played this song. Sweet !!
I am 55 now and remember the phrase .." Todd is God "...he's an ambassador of love that 4 sure !
Preach, brother!
The best album Todd has put since the 70’s and nothing since comes close.
I agree. Nearly Human I liked, too.
A great song in the vein of the great Marvin Gaye, what a fantastic lyricist Todd is... a real songsmith.
Been on board with T.R. since Nazz. Never a dog put out by this genius. Hail Todd!
Gonna listen to some Nazz right now!
TR is an insufficiently recognised genius.Thankfully, for me ,recognised as such by me in the very early 1970's......
Amen, brother.
Amen!
Me too.
I was surprised to see this was from 2004. I thought it would be late 80's to mid 90's, the style is THAT GOOD!
V B -Try as far back as 60s/70s- when all or most pop music was great.
can,t get enough of this song. Every news station play this on there open
Classic album. . .10-year anniversary this year!
Todd is pretty awesome. Came across the little kmown gem!
Soo sweet Todd you were always a frustrated souls singer I could here Marvin sing this
Sing and shout it, tell the world about it.... but do this sweet
He always had so much soul
still lush
This man never stops amazing me sing shout it tell the world about "the truth is sweet"
Oh, baby -
Great Song !!!
Happy Easter!
Just like all things in life.. no truth... no real. I love how this tune grooves ( so very much fur lined) Thx Todd!
He should have been a Super, Super Star. Great composer/lyricist. Top notch vocalist.
To my mind, he is and always has been a super, super star. Screw the masses.
David Bowie said he is a super star but just didn't take record exec's BS...something like that...
Had a long run with Ringo’s All Starr Band.
Amazing Runtie Runt
This song reminded me of some very good chunes like "I saw the Light" a "Dream Goes On Forever" and some more Thank You for the recollection Claysito
Have a Great Christmas Time and
, ) Nighty Night
Love this song !! With or without Darryl Hall
love love this !
I love this song so much...how many times I listened lol!!!
There is a nice live version of this on Live From Daryl's House.
omg, yes, totally smoking rendition.

That's what brought me here...Initially thought it was a Marvin Gaye cover.
FOR MIRIAM...do the right thing...
TODDISGODD.
Hello!! YOU ALL xoxo LG
Damn I think you tube cut off the fade out, I wanted the last drop.
I would be SOOO happy to hear Todd do some music that is NOT electronic. I'm sure he likes it. This is still good music. But, I'm not into keyboard only music. (Fake drums etc., not much of anything else that's real) Just an opinion. If this was Vocals Bass Drums Guitar and piano I'd buy everything Todd puts out. But I haven't purchased a Todd album since "Second Wind". I'm begging, Todd. :)
Unfortunately, the album cover prevented me from buying this when it came out in 2004. One of his best though!!
Mark Walters Don't judge a book or a cd by it's cover!!🤣
Hugh Hallett word
One of the worst CD covers, but one of his best albums !
Naw the album cover rules
Well think about it. The Easter bunny lol is a lie
he obviously didn't want to be-
