1998 CD Wea International 17256

1995's Fly May Represent Sarah Brightman's Foray Into the World of Electronica. Features a Duet with Andrea Bocelli, 'Time to Say Goodbye', which as a Single Experienced Massive Runaway Success around the World.

1996 album for EastWest by the acclaimed vocalist. Features 12 tracks, including the hit duets 'How Can Heaven Love Me' (with Chris Thompson), 'Something In The Air' (with Tom Jones), her smash 'Time To Say Goodbye' (with Andrea Bocelli) and the singles 'A Question Of Honour' & 'Heaven IsHere'.

Her first full blown, self-written opus that draws on her rock roots as well as her considerable singing talents. In a way, this was Brightman breaking out of her classical cocoon and stretching her wings. The European version marked the first recorded debut of her worldwide hit 'Time To Say Goodbye', a duet with Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli. This disc has gone on to be a favorite among Brightman fans.



Seit Sarah Brightman im vergangenen Oktober einen Auftritt von Box-Champion Henry Maske mit der bombastischen Hymne "A Question Of Honour" begleitete, tendiert die Karriere der Musical-Diva bombastisch in Richtung Massenmarkt. Das hört man ihrer neuen CD an. Denn "Fly" ist ein rechter Gemischtwarenladen, der für jeden etwas bereithalten soll: Kunst-Pop in Kate-Bush-Manier ("Murder In Mairyland Park"), Techno-Rhythmen für die Kids (mit Co-Produzent Alex Christensen), Rock im U2-Sound ("Why"), prominente Gäste wie Tom Jones ("Something In The Air") und Chris Thompson ("How Can Heaven Love Me"), eine Prise Dance-Pop ("I Loved You) und natürlich, "A Question Of Honour". Eine Frage der Ehre wäre es für Sarah Brightman, eine eigene Linie zu finden.

TIME TO SAY GOODBYE (CON TE PARTIRÒ)

Sarah:
Quando sono sola
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
si lo so che non c'è luce
in una stanza quando manca il sole,
se non ci sei tu con me, con me.
Su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore
che hai accesso,
chiudi dentro me
la luce che
hai incontrato per strada.

Time to say goodbye.
Paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te,
adesso si li vivrò.
Con te partirò
su navi per mari
che, io lo so,
no, no, non esistono più,
it's time to say goodbye.


Andrea:
Quando sei lontana
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
e io si lo so
che sei con me, con me,
tu mia luna tu sei qui con me,
mio sole tu sei qui con me,
con me, con me, con me.

Time to say goodbye.
Paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te,
adesso sì li vivrò.
Con te partirò
su navi per mari
che, io lo so,
no, no, non esistono più,


Both:
con te io li rivivrò.
Con te partirò
su navi per mari
che, io lo so,
no, no, non esistono più,
con te io li rivivrò.
Con te partirò

Io con te.


THE FLY

I know a colourful room
Where we can fly
And take a spin to the moon
On Aunt Angelica's pie
I am a fly, pie in the sky
Across a harvest of stars
And constellations
We'll drink
A starjuice on Mars
Coz I don't know why
I am a fly

The major is dead
It went to his head
We gonna fly


WHY

Why, why don't we try
Like the wind we'll learn how to fly again
To reach heaven we'll drown our sorrows
Feel the fury coming down on you baby
Lying on a heart of a baby
[Sitting] in a vision of blue

Tell me why
Those innocent lies, tell me why
The mystery of love is to live

Live and let live
Break the chains and try to forgive me now
For the fortune on the wings of an eagle
And our hearts lie in the hands of an angel

Dreaming on the wings of an eagle in yellow
Sitting on a moutain top

Tell me why
Those innocent lies, tell me why
The mystery of love is to live
Those innocent lies, tell me why
The mystery of love is to live

Maybe you can try
Maybe I can try
Maybe they can try
Maybe we should try

Tell me why
Those innocent lies, tell me why
The mystery of love is to live
Those innocent lies, tell me why
The mystery of love is to live
Those innocent lies, tell me why
The mystery of love is to live


MURDER IN MAIRYLAND PARK

Things that happen just once
If she'd looked she would have seen it
He was standing all night
'Cross the street very still
And they go out so easily
The street lamps
The cars come and go
Crazy, so crazy

But I see you too clearly
I don't trust myself anymore
If it's all true just say it
I may already know
That sound when it's over
The sidewalks will carry you home
And the evening so easily

Agnus, agnus
Dei
Agnus, agnus
Qui tollis peccata [mundi]


Crazy, so crazy


HOW CAN HEAVEN LOVE YOU

Fell from the grace of heaven's prow
Listening as the abyss calls our name
Descending stars from golden clouds
Falling to the rage of angels
Bringer of light from on high
Bound to the earth and unable to fly ...

I don't know ..]   (3x)
How can heaven love me
You don't know   /   I don't know ..]   (3x)
How can heaven love you   /   How can heaven love me

We loved in a time before the fall
Welcome to the arms of solitude
Beneath us the heat that hearts exude
Is this really heaven?
We'd fight with the gods for our dreams
Where paradise falls eternity screams

I don't know ..]   (3x)
How can heaven love me
You don't know   /   I don't know ..]   (3x)
How can heaven love you   /   How can heaven love me

Die Welt ein Tor
Zu tausend Wüsten stumm und kalt
Wer das verlor, was du verlorst
Macht nirgends halt  The world is a gate
thousend deserts dumb and cold
that man who lost what you lost
is stopped by nothing 
Crystallized as starlight
Lost in paradise

I don't know ..]   (3x)
How can heaven love me
You don't know   /   I don't know ..]   (3x)
How can heaven love you   /   How can heaven love me

(The last lines are repeated several times)


A QUESTION OF HONOUR

Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
Come va l'eco della pia campana,
Là, fra la neve bianca;
Là, fra le nubi d'or;
Là, dov'è la speranza, la speranza
Il rimpianto, il rimpianto, e il dolor!

Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
Là, dov'è la speranza, la speranza
Il rimpianto
Sola e lontana!


Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
It's a question of honour
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide
It's a question of honour
Two men collide
When two men collide, when two men collide


If you win or you lose, it's a question of honour
And the way that you choose, it's a question of honour


I can't tell what's wrong or right
If black is white or day is night
But I know when two men collide
It's a question of honour


If you win or you lose, it's a question of honour
And the way that you choose, it's a question of honour
If you win or you lose, it's a question of honour
And the way that you choose, it's a question of honour


I can't tell what's wrong or right
If black is white or day is night
I know when two men collide
It's a question of honour


Ebbene? ... N'andrò lontana,
Come l'eco della pia campana,
Là, fra la neve bianca;
Là, fra le nubi d'or;
N'andrò, n'andrò sola e lontana!
E fra le nubi d'or!


GHOST IN THE MACHINERY

In the heat of the moment
In the dark of the night
You never see his face
For he's the ghost inside
In the heat of the moment
He will laugh at you
How can you make peace
When he's at war with you

In the heat of the moment
You're a perfect guy
Born to make mistakes
He knows the reason why

He's a shock to the system
He's a wicked clown
No matter what you do
He turns it upside down

Hu hu hu hu hu hu
Ghost in the machinery
Hu hu hu hu hu hu
Ghost in the machinery
Hu hu hu hu hu hu

In the light of a new love
In the dark of night
You can fall asleep
And dream he's out of sight

In the eyes of the children
You can read his name
They'll make the same mistakes
And that's the only way
The only way

Hu hu hu hu hu hu
Ghost in the machinery

(The last two lines are repeated several times)


YOU TAKE MY BREATH AWAY

We saw the holy men
come in from Sanchi
We touched their souls
and heard the Martyrs crying
Among the fields of red
we took the strange brew
The windless sky diwali
moon were calling to me
The deeper I go
the higher I fly with you

You take my breath away
Ooho you ..]                         -- lines repeated several times


[some lines sung in Indian, from the first singer]
You take my breath away ...

You take my breath away
Ooho you ..]                         -- lines repeated many times


SOMETHING IN THE AIR

There is something in the air
Oh, there is something in the air
Oh yeah Deep within your mind you have been blind
Look around and find
There's something in the air

Sometimes I can read it in your eyes
Keep the dream alive
There's something in the air

There is something in the air
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Don't know why the truth becomes a lie
Makes me wanna cry
There's something in the air

So I'm going to try to [ease the pain]
Wash away the rain
There's something in the air

And I can feel it ... Oh yeah
Oh I can feel it ... Everywhere

There is something in the air
Our tears will dry tomorrow
No more pain or sorrow
There's something in the air

[Chorus:]
There is something in the air
Our tears will dry tomorrow
No more pain or sorrow
There's something in the air
All the darkness turns to sunlight
(The) Dawning hits the long night
There's something in the air
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

We can heal the wounds of time together
It'll be forever
There's something in the air
I can feel the love that I desire
Come on take me higher
There's something in the air

Oh I can feel it ... Oh yeah
I can feel it ... Everywhere

[Chorus]

Something in the air
There is something in the air
There is something in the air
Is there something?
Something in the air
There is something in the air
There is something in the air
Is there something?

[Chorus]

There is something in the air ..]     (repeated several times)


HEAVEN IS HERE

Good times and bad times
There's nothing I forget
Sun shines on our lifelines
There's nothing I'll regret
Hold me and feel me
And wrap your arms around
Coz when you love me I'm quite clear
That heaven is here

Hear my confession
We're meant to be as one
Leave me to the mystery
Of happiness to come

Touch me I'll give
My blessings and desire
Coz when you feel eternal fire
Then heaven is here

Bad times and street crimes
No matter where you go
Some sects preach and some fools teach
They're giving us some show

So send me an angel
And wrap your arms around
Coz when it all comes down you'll know
That heaven is here

That heaven is here, oh-oh ..]     (repeated several times)


I LOVED YOU

It was a plastic age with plastic tears
A total addiction to the wonder years
I'm a believer was where it's at
He's singing oh Lola lady lay lady lay
She's fixing a hole down on Blue Jay Way
American Pie on your Tupperware
He paints an Andy-Pandy Campbell's tins
Boys in the jungle on your TV screen
In tricky dicky's love machine
We'll take an easy ride and have some fun
On Dylan's highway 61
In California dreaming sun

That was when I loved you
I loved you, I loved you, I loved you

They were the living years of stainless steel
Praying for a time in a fortune wheel
Smooth operator was where it's at
So welcome all of you to the pleasure dome
Of taking the look from the homeless zone
With digital aids in your telephone

Another day in paradise is nice
From Ronnie's recession's nice advice
[Coz UB40's ice is vice]

We suffer from the longest
and one of the most sustained
inflations in our national history.
So don't you let the sun go down on me
Coz I wanna break free from your MTV
To virtual reality

That was when I loved you
I loved you, I loved you, I loved you
I loved you, I loved you

That was when I loved you
I loved you, I loved you, I loved you
I loved you, I loved you, ..]     (repeated several times)

[Choir on the background:]
From the shadow of the past
I never dreamd that it would last
You gave me joy you gave me tears
And took away the wonder years


FLY

Across a harvest of stars
And constellations
We'll drink a starjuice on Mars
Miss our connection and cry
Coz I don't know why I am a fly
It's all pie in the sky
