Lyrics:

won’t let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It’s the one good thing that I’ve got
I won’t let you down
So please don’t give me up
‚Cause I would really, really love to stick around, oh yeah

Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn’t know what I wanted to be (Didn’t know what I wanted to be)
I was every little hungry schoolgirl’s pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me (said I guess it was enough for me)
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll T.V.
But today the way I play the game is not the same, no way
Think I’m gonna get myself happy

I think there’s something you should know
I think it’s time I told you so
There’s something deep inside of me
There’s someone else I’ve got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don’t belong to you
And you don’t belong to me yeah yeah

Freedom! (I won’t let you down)
Freedom! (I will not give you up)
Freedom! (Have some faith in the sound)
You’ve gotta give for what you take (It’s the one good thing that I’ve got)
Freedom! (I won’t let you down)
Freedom! (So please don’t give me up)
Freedom! (‚Cause I would really, really love to stick around)
You’ve gotta give for what you take

Heaven knows we sure had some fun, boy
What a kick just a buddy and me (what a kick just a buddy and me)
We had every big-shot good time band on the run, boy
We were living in a fantasy (we were living in a fantasy)
We won the race, got out of the place
I went back home, got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change, oh yeah
Now I’m gonna get myself happy

I think there’s something you should know
I think it’s time I stopped the show
There’s something deep inside of me
There’s someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don’t think that I’ll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don’t belong to you
And you don’t belong to me, yeah yeah

Freedom! (I won’t let you down)
Freedom! (I will not give you up)
Freedom! (Have some faith in the sound)
You’ve gotta give for what you take (It’s the one good thing that I’ve got)
Freedom! (I won’t let you down)
Freedom! (So please don’t give me up)
Freedom! (‚Cause I would really, really love to stick around)
You’ve gotta give for what you take

Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody’s got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were build to last

That’s what you get (That’s what you get)
That’s what you get (I say that’s what you get)
That’s what you get (for changing your mind)
That’s what you get for changing your mind

That’s what you get
That’s what you get (And after all this time)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make me, oh yeah

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don’t belong to you
And you don’t belong to me, yeah yeah

Freedom!
Freedom! (oh freedom)
Freedom! (my freedom)
You’ve gotta give for what you take
Freedom! (hold on to my freedom)
Freedom!
Freedom! (my freedom)
You’ve gotta give for what you take
Give for what you, give for what you take yeah
Yeah, you’ve got to give for what you, give for what you, give

May not be what you want from me
Just the way it’s got to be
Lose the face now
I’ve got to live, I’ve got to live, I’ve got to live

Info:
Einer der Superstars der 80er Jahre ist sicherlich George Michael: Wham, Paradiesvogel, provokant, Homosexualität, Ausnahmetalent – das sind sicherlich nur einige Worte, die mit dem Künstler in Verbindung gebracht werden können. Hier einer seiner Klassiker von seinem zweiten Album.

Judith Sander
Es gibt Sucht-Charaktere, die entsagen und es gibt andere, die setzen sich ins Epizentrum ihres Verlangens. Nein, Judith ist keine Schweizer Taschenmesserwerferin, sie ist bekennend schokoladensüchtig und metzelt ohne zu zucken für ‘ne Toblerone oder Eiscreme oder Tobleroneeiscreme oder.. na jedenfalls: Die Frau ist echt Zucker, echt hart drauf, hat ein feines Näschen, legt sich für die richtigen Dinge ins Zeug, in die Kurve und nascht am allerliebsten an kleinen, unbekannten Bands in ruhiger Atmosphäre. Wer die olle Genießerin dennoch ans Messer liefern will, sperrt sie – in einen rosa Rüschen-Alptraum gehüllt – mit stinkenden Dränglern ins Musikantenstadl und nimmt ihr das letzte Milkyway weg.
