Does anyone know if there are full lyrics to this song? Half of it is backwards and I sound like an ass trying to sing it. The only part I can understand is "sworn under an oath to war" ...... and "...certainly familiar".

 

I can't get the lyrics up on my iPhone yet, so I'd appreciate it if one of you kind people could post them for me. :) And does anyone know what it's about? Did she speak about it? I remember her saying she just jumbled words together, but I'm wondering if there's anything else she said.

 

THANKS!

Ram's wool that cause way a cricus

 

Full mug my friends certainly familiar

Warmy funny Anna say say maluska

 

Sworn under an oath to war

Sworn under an oath to war

 

Phwoar so spirit smother me in

Ah, hear that glitch fought and ought

 

Fuel full fat her glass of milk

Warm sitting here, sitting in bed

 

Sworn under an oath to war

Sworn under an oath to war

Sworn under an oath to war

and i you listen to it backwards, you can hear : "..she cant carry on but her nimble fingers still feel the cold.. "

Thank you!

 

I didn't know there was a version where it's reversed back to its original form. Thanks. I'll check it out later.

 

It really is a great & creative song.

Oh wow. She's clever. I'm hearing all sorts in this. Whether she's singing this at all or if my mind is playing tricks on me due to listening so closely I don't know, but this is really interesting.

ever seen her singing it live ??

It's amazing... you can find it on youtube too...

I'll have to check that out.

 

I've seen some acoustic performances, but I think that's all. They were really good, though, and her vocals were flawless.

Coming up for air - Live Capital FM

 

 

:wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

She isn't singing most of the song backwards - just studio trickery. If you listen to the song and read the lyrics you can hear it quite clearly - big "a-ha" moment for me.

 

(by the way, the lyrics are in the album sleeve *cough, cough* :P)

And i got jumped on for suggesting a 75:25 ratio of posters who could read:those who couldn't

 

Two this afternoon already.

You should, i've only got it recently. The CD and album booklet are stunning.

No i jumped on you for saying that most of the 25% of people were 4.0 fans.

I've had the album for years via iTunes, but nothing beats having a physical copy. The artwork gives that album a little push.

 

It is a strong album. Not hard to see why it wasn't a comercial success, but I get the feeling Ms Donaghy wasn't thinking about that. Good move. If we include every review the Sugababes (all line-ups) and Mutua received,

Siobhan's will be right at the top.

 

I liked the whole feel of the album. Siobhan really pulled out all the stops for it.

No i jumped on you for saying that most of the 25% of people were 4.0 fans.

No i say the 25% who could read are not 4.0loons.

 

I'm yet to be disproved
