All Kinds Of People
(s. crow, e. presley, k. gilbert)
Producer: trevor horn
Album: wildest dreams (96)
Theres a time for love and a time for healing
Cant go back and undo whats been done
The word of mouth, time is revealing
Just how far weve left this kingdom come
Hand in hand were finding our way
And today is just tommorrows yesterday
Some will die for you, some will lie to you
Theres all kinds of people in this world
Turn the world around, tear the borders down
Theres all kinds of people in this world
Kiss of life and the hand of fate
Boy grows up into his fathers son
And he learns to love, has been taught to hate
To carry on the way it had been done
All our lives, its debts to repay
Maybe someday we can put the past away
Some will die for you, some will lie to you

Typical Male
(t. britten, g. lyle)
Producer: terry britten
Albums: break every rule (86), simply the best (91), the collected recordings (94)
Grammy nomination: best pop vocal performance, female (87)
Tell me lawyer what to do
I think Im falling in love with you
Defend me from the way I feel
Wont you give me some advice
On how to handle my private life
Im sure we can make a deal
I confess Im a fool for men with a clever mind
But your intellect aint no match with this heart of mine
All I want is a little reaction
Just enough to tip the scales
Im just using my female attraction
On a typical male, on a typical male
Your sense of justice Ill embrace
But your defence dont help my case
Im deep in trouble with the law
Something about authority

Grammy award: best rock vocal performance, female (85)
A prisoner of your love
Entangled in your web
Hot whispers in the night
Im captured by your spell
Oh yes Im touched by this show of emotion
Should I be fractured by your lack of devotion
Should i, should i?
You better be good to me
Thats how its gotta be now
Cause I dont have no use
For what you losely call the truth
You better be good to me
I think its also right
That we dont need to fight
We stand face to face

Rockn Roll Widow
(t. snow)
Producer: carter
Album: private dancer emi centenary edition
B-side of the us/oz whats love got to do with it single
B-side of the uk/ger help single
Im sitting at home and the phone doesnt even ring
Im all alone again
Not a sound in the house save the radio
Fm dj filling up the emptiness
Babys on the road again
Six weeks nation-wide opening the show
And Im making it on my own like a rockn roll widow
Get my news from the rolling stone, wake by the telephone
Wonder if hes alone
Or is my man on a permanent loan to rockn roll
Rockn roll
Outdoor concert, watching him play for me
I fall in love again
He says his music is everything
Helpless, caught by the melody

On Silent Wings
(t. j. white, j. ralston)
Producer: trevor horn
Album: wildest dreams (96)
Special guest: sting
There was a time when I would have followed you
To the end of the earth
I was willing to share it all with you
The love, the hurt
Ive seen you when your dreams were falling in the dust
But I never stopped believing in you
I always thought our love was strong enough
One you could hold on to
You never see it coming
You just let it fly
On silent wings, silent wings
You cant hide what you you feel inside
And the fire has left your eyes
On silent wings
I see us in our dreams and were dancing
I can almost hear the song

B-side of the european missing you single
If you really love me dont try to change me
If you look in the mirror, its not me you see
I dont want whats yours as mine
No Ill never cross that line
I want you just the way you are
Boy youre everything Im not
And thats all Ive ever wanted
If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together
I tell you my love is everlasting
If you promise to give your best every moment
No, you dont have to compromise
Try to live each others life
We can be ourselves tonight

Goldeneye
(bono, the edge)
Producer: nellee hooper
Albums: wildest dreams (96), goldeneye soundtrack (95)
See reflections on the water
More than darkness in the depths
See him surface and never a shadow
On the wind I feel his breath
Goldeneye, I found his weakness
Goldeneye, hell do what I please
Goldeneye, no time for sweetness
But a bitter kiss will bring him to his knees
Youll never know how I watched you from the shadows as a child
Youll never know how it feels to be the one whos left behind
Youll never know the days and the nights, the tears, the tears Ive cried
But now my time has come and time, time is not on your side
See him move through smoke and mirrors
Feel his presence in the crowd
Other girls they gather around him
If I had him I wouldnt let him out
Goldeneye, not lace or leather

Missing You
(c.sanford/ j. waite/ m. leonard)
Producer: trevor horn
Album: wildest dreams (96)
Everytime I think of you I always catch my breath
And Im still standing here, and youre miles away
And Im wondering why you left
And theres a storm thats raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinking about you
And its almost driving me wild
And theres a heart thats breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I aint missing you at all (missing you)
Since youve been gone away (missing you),
I aint missing you (missing you)
No matter what I might say (missing you)
Theres a message in the wire
And Im sending you the signal tonight

Way Of The World
(a. hammond, g. lyle)
Producers: chris lord-aldge, albert hammond, g. lyle
Album: simply the best (91)
Baby, I need a hand to hold tonight
And one bright star to remind me
How dear is this life
And baby, Ive never known anyone like you
Theres something very special about you
I cant imagine living without you
Its the way of the world and its motion
And no ocean can keep us apart
When the moment is right and youre holding me tight
You capture the beat of my heart
In my heart theres s fire always burning
And there isnt a thing I cant do
Im resigned to the fact that theres no turning back
And Ill never regret loving you
Baby, I will go anywhere you need
As long as youre there beside me
Baby, thats all I need

What You Get Is What You See
(t. britten, g. lyle)
Producer: terry britten
Albums: break every rule(86), simply the best (us-91), the collected recordings (94)
Some boys got the look of a greek adonis
Some boys try to talk you off your feet
Some boys theyre gods gift to woman
Some boys think theyre sweet enough to eat
Try to change the habit of a lifetime
Dont even try
Cause when you cut down deeper than the icing
You realise
What you get is what you see
Aint nothing more to it
And if you wanna love a woman like me
It takes a man to do it
If what you get is what you see
Then I dont want your kind of love
Some guys got lips that you cant help kissing
And some guys got a smile you cant resist
Some guys gotta build a reputation
