I’ve been waiting all week for this music video to be shown on TV and I finally got to see it. It’s so good I watched it all three times it was announced it would be on. Hopefully I’ll see it more now on the music channels.
I honestly think it’s one of the best Take That songs I’ve ever heard. I felt like crying when I first heard it… the lyrics are so beautiful and romantic – they fit perfectly with the film they were written for, “Stardust”, clips of which can be seen throughout the video.
Personally I think this will do very well. Perhaps the film will give it a lot of exposure and people who perhaps would not normally think to buy a Take That song might like it enough to. I hope so. I think it deserves to do well.
Below is the music video (thanks go to the person who uploaded it and, of course, YouTube) followed by the lyrics.
You light the skies, up above me
A star, so bright, you blind me, yeah
Don’t close your eyes
Don’t fade away, don’t fade away
Yeah you and me we can ride on a star
If you stay with me girl
We can rule the world
Yeah you and me we can light up the sky
If you stay by my side
We can rule the world
If walls break down, I will comfort you
If angels cry, oh I’ll be there for you
You’ve saved my soul
Don’t leave me now, don’t leave me now
Yeah you and me we can ride on a star
If you stay with me girl
We can rule the world
Yeah you and me, we can light up the sky
If you stay by my side
We can rule the world
All the stars are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you
All the stars are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you
Yeah you and me we can ride on a star
If you stay with me girl
We can rule the world
Yeah you and me, we can light up the sky
If you stay by my side
We can rule the world
All the stars are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you
All the stars are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you,for you
All the stars, are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you
All the stars, are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you,for you
I have to agree I do like this song but I like shine a little better but I think that is because you can dance to it.
I wonder what shine would of sounded like if Gary had sung it?
I don’t think Shine would have suited his voice and wouldn’t have sounded the same if he’d done it. It might still have been good, but I think it has added charm because it was Mark singing.
