The official WFTSC lyrics correction page

hi all,

here's today's japanese booklet lyrics:

Dracula's Castle

What's the matter here Something ain't right Tell me it's not true Tell me it's all right

There was a time I'd run around for you Get down on my knees I swear it's true But you came in the night

[next page]

And took my heart To Dracula's castle in the dark Now I've GOT TO tell you That you've GOT TO know I WAN'T you to stay but you're gonna go Don't leave me alone DON'T tear me apart You're in control DON'T BREAK MY HEART

So goodbye love You were not real You came to stay But now you leave I can't explain The way you feel We once stood high But now we kneel

You can't keep on running**...** How far do you think you'll get? You've got the world if you want it I ain't done with you yet

I WORKED hard just to keep you by my side Every day and almost every night In the end you took away my heart Left me A LONER IN THE DARK

So goodbye love You were not real You came to stay But now you leave I can't explain The way YOU FEEL We once stood high But now we kneel

So goodbye love You were not real You came to stay But now you leave I can't explain The way YOU FEEL We once stood high But now we kneel

ps. in this song i prefer two lines here... firstly i do hear "don't break my heart" after "you're in control" so it should be added, and i also do hear "in the dark" in the sentence "Left me A LONER IN THE DARK" so i think "in the dark" should be added as well.

i really like this song. kinda reminds me dream attack here, the drum loop and the synth i guess. and seems like barney really works hard coz it's not the first time he mentions it :p

cheers,

chant

Thanks, Chant. I always knew he was mumbling something between the lines "you're in control" and "so goodbye love". Btw, it's I WANT you to stay not I WAN'T you to ...

He sings STRUNG on the Canal+ performance!!

Haven't really listened to the live version so I can't contest what he sang live but the recorded lyric is shrunk. Strung doesn't make any sense as it's a reference to watching televsion rather that enjoying the beauty of the world around you. Maybe he needs a bigger auto cue?

Nah its a reference to a 2foot rocket morter launcher

Thanks again, chant.

Are you sure it isn't "ALONE in the dark"?

no problem! but what i post is the original lyrics printed on the booklet, i made no change at all- no matter it's right or wrong- there are several typos too, but i just want to post them all for your references :)

"wan't" also appeared on WftSC and i think maybe the guy who types the lyrics typed too many "won't, wouldn't, don't, didn't, wasn't, weren't..." stuff like that so whenever there is an "nt" s/he would automatically add an apostrophe between them. like my friend once wrote "studen't" instead of "student" in the occupation field. :p

to Patrick, yeah i think it may be "alone in the dark" but i think i hear a "ner" sound so i'm not sure if it's alone or a loner... in fact i seldom hear people say loner so maybe alone it is then. [again what i typed is what is originally printed in the booklet and i made no change to it at all :)]

Thanks, chant. A "loner" is someone who chooses to be alone, so it seems out of place here.

what i just posted was gone... >_<" i should've saved a backup!! alright.. i'll retype them anyway :~~

well, firstly i complained that i don't like domains end with cc. do they have to?

and since they didn't provide all the lyrics correctly, i think i'll keep posting the japanese booklet lyrics for your reference. today's jetstream's turn:

Jetstream

Can you wait My plane will be arriving shortly Right there at the gate I pray that you'll be waiting right there for me This time could be what We've both been searching for Our whole lives waking up I'm coming back for more

J.E.T.(J.E.T.) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are my jetstream lover YOUR how I wanna be (Just how I wanna be baby) J.E.T.(J.E.T.) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are my jetstream lover YOUR how I wanna be (Just how I wanna be baby)

We're so high I'm watching all the clouds drift by below me We should try It's been so long since I made you cry Long Live Love I just can't get enough of you I need that ENGINES push It's gonna take me home to you

J.E.T.(J.E.T.) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are my jetstream lover YOUR how I wanna be (Just how I wanna be baby) J.E.T.(J.E.T.) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are my jetstream lover YOUR how I wanna be (Just how I wanna be baby) You ARE meant to BEHOME with me

J.E.T.(J.E.T.) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are my jetstream lover

[next page]

YOUR how I wanna be (Just how I wanna be baby) J.E.T.(J.E.T.) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are my jetstream lover You're how I wanna be (Just how I wanna be baby) You are so good for me (You are so good for me) You are so good for me (Just how I wanna be baby) But you're gone(But you're gone) Don't let it go(Don't let it go) If you don't try(If you don't try) How WOULD you know(How will you know)

ps. except some typos like "you're - your," "be home - behome," it's pretty much the same. only two tenses are different: "you are/ were meant to be" and "how will/ would you know." what i hear is "you are" and the rest one i'm not sure about barney's but i think ana sings "will" so they should be the same. and it seems that they don't count the spoken words as lyrics..

that's what i can think of what i've posted.

cheers,

*What, you mean they did copy and paste the lyrics from NOOL?! BTW the site looks very nice (I like the buddy icons though I'll stick to my good old Weebl) but there's one huge problem: I CAN'T FOOKIN SCROLL! It seems that you can since you talk about the lyrics but all I can see is the first half of Who's Joe and then clicking on the arrows does nothing, except on Firefox where it scrolls a couple of lines and then stops anyway... Any thoughts?

You slide the bar rather than clicking on the arrows, PM.

Thanks Patrick, Fookin modern web design! :D Ah, the good old days of HTML 3.2... Always thought the Internet looked better when it was in black and white... ;) I guess I look rather stupid, sat here trying to click on that bar while it had to be moved... BTW it's really unbelievable to see an official site putting question marks on the lyrics (apart from the fact they stole them from here, but other vistiros don't know this) and a text page would have been much better so people would have been able to copy...

japanese booklet lyrics of the day..

Guilt Is A Useless Emotion

Just another day in the week Waiting for an opportunity to step in front of me Maybe I'm losing my mind Searching for another place in another time

Real love can't be bought It is wild and it can't be caught Real love can't be sold It's another colour than gold

I need your love I just want to buy it I need your love Will you help me find it I want your love How can you deny it I need your love You've just got to try it

I want you now It's something that youv'e got to know I need you now My love for you I want to show I want your love I'm telling you that I belong I need your love You and me just can't go wrong

I'm standing on top of the world Thinking of the joy you bring when you do that thing to me You sure know a lot for a girl You could bring the good times back

[next page]

get me on the track

Real love can't be bought It is wild and it can't be caught Real love can't be sold It's another colour than gold

I need your love I just want to buy it I need your love Will you help me find it I want your love How can you deny it I need your love You've just got to try it

I want you now It's something that youv'e got to know I need you now My love for you I want to show I want your love I'm telling you that I belong I need your love You and me just can't go wrong

I need your love I need your love I need your love

I need your love I just want to buy it I need your love Will you help me find it I want your love How can you deny it I need your love You've just got to try it

I want you now It's something that youv'e got to know I need you now My love for you I want to show I want your love I'm telling you that I belong I need your love You and me just can't go wrong

You and me just can't go wrong You and me just can't go wrong You and me just can't go wrong You and me just can't go wrong

ps. typos here are these "youv'e"s. and again except "want to" and (you've) "got to" the two versions are basically the same.
(there's also a spelling difference: they use colour instead of color.) also they have**"It's"** before "something that you gotta know" and "I'm" before "standing on top of the world."

a word is mistakenly typed here in the NOOL version: It is wild and it can't be cought should be "caught" shouldn't it?

cheers,

chant

it appears that the WB new order web site (neworder.cc) has the lyrics. So, compare and contrast.

today's japanese booklet lyrics:

Turn

It's a hard way to come home You've got me on my knees The walls are tumbling down They're falling like the leaves

The days turn into months and years I can't forget that you were here I feel your presence everywhere In the corner over there

Turn your eyes from me It's time for me to go Across the hills and over the sea I want you more than you know It's a wild world out there And nobody gives a damn In cold blood we don't care And we don't want to understand

I'm sitting here alone at night My sleepless eyes are open wide What do you wan't me to say What we had has gone away

The sky is high the road is long Show me what I should have done What do you want me to do Take it all away from you

Turn your eyes from me It's time for me to go Across the hills and over the sea I want you more than you know

Turn your eyes from me It's time for me to go Across the hills and over the sea I want you more than you know

ps. only one minor difference: the days turn/ turned. others are exactly the same! ( 'cept one typo) another drum loop that reminds me of dream attack..

pps. my easter's over... but i really don't want to go to lectures tomorrow :( but i finally got the confirm from glastonbury that i got the tickets! yeah~ two days of new order!!!

You must be kidding right?

They stole them from us! and it's the version prior to this whole thread!

They got the chorus from Turn wrong too!

sorry i was busy with my coursework so didn't submit the lyrcis yesterday. here's the last one from japanese booklet lyrics. by the way, Colin, you should get your copy of the japanese version cd, right? :)

Working Overtime

Who's that over there Looks like he don't care Almost lost his mind Too much working overtime

Got to get out every night City gates are open wide

[next page]

Got to get away from here Take that car and push that gear

He don't need no one He's a rising sun He won't shed no tears Got no time to break down here

He's going nowhere fast Just a piece of dirty trash All alone by his self He don't need nobody else

Walking down the street So much going on People every where Look at him but they don't care

See that world out there Make it go away You can't change his mind Too much working overtime

Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime

He crossed that picket line In trouble all the time Where did it all go wrong House music all night long

All those girls out there Looking for the one Do they really care Or could they just be having fun

He did all he could Tried to get it right Somewhere he went wrong Too much working overtime

Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime Overtime

that's all.. :)

cheers,

I got it Chant. It was so fast - I might always buy things from there!

I just lke jumping up and down to the songs with a can of beer in my hand ( Stela of course )

In the Japanese Booklet it reads "All shrunk down in a 2FT tube".

Ladies and gentlemen, in WFTSC Barney is actually referring to one siren only, although the name of the album doesn't say so, therefore he sings: Waiting for the siren's call, I've never seen HER here before.

Take a listen and judge yourself.

Interesting, M. Another possibility is that the name of the ship is "The Sirens" or "Sirens" and the reference to "her" is simply the conventional use of the feminine pronoun for any ship.

P, do you also hear "I've never seen HER here before"?

Beatrix Kiddo wrote: P, do you also hear "I've never seen HER here before"?

I will have to get back to you on that, M. I haven't really been focusing on the lyrics that much lately. But the way you have it is certainly a possibility.

I'm afraid I hear "IT" rather than "HER" in this line, M.

I'm afraid you're right, P. Still I think "her" would fit better in that line.

Beatrix Kiddo wrote: I'm afraid you're right, P. Still I think "her" would fit better in that line.

I agree with that, M. "Her" would fit better. Maybe he wanted to avoid saying "her here."

"her here" well, it's not that hard for me to say it
