    "The Fear"

    I want to be rich and I want lots of money
    I don't care about clever I don't care about funny
    I want loads of clothes and ****loads of diamonds
    I heard people die while they are trying to find them

    And I'll take my clothes off and it will be shameless
    'Cause everyone knows that's how you get famous.

    [Pre-chorus:]
    I'll look at the sun and I'll look in the mirror
    I'm on the right track, yeah I'm on to a winner.

    [Chorus:]
    I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
    And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore
    And when do you think it will all become clear?
    'Cause I'm being taking over by The Fear

    Life's about film stars and less about mothers
    It's all about fast cars and cussing each other
    But it doesn't matter cause I'm packing plastic
    And that's what makes my life so ****ing fantastic

    And I am a weapon of massive consumption
    And it's not my fault it's how I'm programmed to function

    [Pre-chorus]

    [Chorus]

    Forget about guns and forget ammunition
    'Cause I'm killing them all on my own little mission
    Now I'm not a saint but I'm not a sinner
    Now everything's cool as long as I'm getting thinner

    [Chorus]

    Great song........... first time I have heard this thank you.

    Well I don't really know songs of this nature other than Boy George's song 'sold'............ and that is rather dated now.

    How about this

    Always loved that little number. Always saw it as a crack in quotes. Sort of post punk in the truest sense.

    I love this version. Even though there's a set of drums in the video, it's a capella. It's amazing what humans can do

    I so love this beautiful song.

    (This will be the third time good old Stevie will get deleted)

    "Free"

    Free like the river
    Flowin' freely through infinity
    Free to be sure of
    What I am and who I need not be
    Free from all worries
    Worries prey on oneself's troubled mind
    Freer than the clock's hands
    Tickin' way the times
    Freer than the meaning of free that man defines
    Life running through me
    Till I feel my father God has called

    Me having nothin'
    But possessing riches more than all
    And I'm free
    To be nowhere
    But in every place I need to be
    Freer than a sunbeam
    Shinning through my soul
    Free from feelin' heat or knowing bitter cold
    Free from conceiving the beginning
    For that's the infinite start

    I'm gone - gone but still living
    Life goes on without a beating heart

    Free like a vision
    That the mind of only you can see

    Freer than a raindrop
    Falling from the sky
    Freer than a smile in a baby's sleepin' eyes

    I'm free like a river
    Flowin' freely to infinity
    I'm free to be sure of what
    I am and who I need not be
    I'm much freer - like the meaning of the word free that
    crazy man defines
    Free - free like the vision that
    The mind of only you are ever gonna see
    Free like the river my life
    Goes on and on through infinity

    Oh I see your scars I know where they're from
    So sensually carved and bleeding until you're dead and gone
    I've seen it all before beauty and splendour torn
    It's when heaven turns to black and hell to white
    Right so wrong and wrong so right

    Feel it turning your heart into stone
    Feel it piercing your courageous soul
    Beyond now — redemption
    No one's gonna catch you when you fall

    Oh I see you crawl you can barely walk
    With arms wide open you keep on begging for more
    I've been there before knocking on the same door
    It's when hate turns to love and love to hate
    Faith to doubt and doubt to faith

    Feel it turning your heart into stone
    Feel it piercing your courageous soul
    Beyond now — redemption
    No one's gonna catch you when you fall

    Feel it turning your heart into stone
    Feel it piercing your courageous soul
    Beyond now — redemption
    No one's gonna catch you when you fall

    May the Force be with all of us............... ,

    we are going to need it the way this reality is unravelling fast, in the wrong direction.

    Whoever compiled this video together did a good job.
