Grief never grows old

Post by Texas »

I found a site about the Tsunami Song "Grief never grows old". Here a the lyrics and how they are shared by various artists:

Russell Watson
GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD….IT NEVER DIES
AS FRESH AS THE FLOWERS…AS CLEAR AS THE SKIES
MY HEART IT IS EMPTY…MY FEELINGS GROWN COLD

Russell & Boy George
BUT I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER…GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD.


Steve Winwood & OOhs (Jeff Foskett Randel Kisrsh)
LOVE LIVES LIKE A FLAME…IT FLICKERS AND DIES

Boy George
IT FLARES WITH A BRIGHTNESS…THAT BEWILDERS THE EYES

Steve Winwood
BUT THERE IS A BURNING…SO DEEP IN MY SOUL
THAT WILL ALWAYS BE WITH ME…GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD.

Chorus

Barry Gibb & OOhs
GRIEF NEVER LEAVES YOU…IT’S HAND IN HAND
LIKE AN UNRESOLVED QUESTION…YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND

Brian Wilson
AND NO-ONE CAN ANSWER…NO-ONE CAN SAY
WHY GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD AT ALL…OR FADES AWAY.


Cliff Richard
TIME MOVES LIKE THE WIND…THE MOMENT HE GAVE
TIME FLIES LIKE AN EAGLE…FROM CRADLE TO GRAVE

Barry Gibb Cliff Richard
THROUGH TEARS FOR YOUR DYING…NO HARVEST OF GOLD

Barry Gibb
THOUGH ALL THINGS MUST PASS AWAY…GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD.

Chorus

Barry Gibb & Cliff Richard Add Libs
GRIEF NEVER LEAVES YOU…IT’S HAND IN HAND

Dewey Bunell (America) Barry Gibb
LIKE AN UNRESOLVED QUESTION…YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND

Gerry Beckley (America) with Jon Anderson (Yes) (Bv)
AND NO-ONE CAN ANSWER…NO-ONE CAN SAY

Gerry Beckley Gerry Beckley& Dewey Bunell
WHY GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD AT ALL…OR FADES AWAY.


SOLO GARY MOORE

ADD LIBS Gerry - Robin - George-Steve


Robin Gibb & Celena Cherry BVs
GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD…IT FALLS WITH THE RAIN
IT’S A LATE SUMMER EVENING…A HAUNTING REFRAIN
AND SORROW’S AN OCEAN…AS DEEP AND AS COLD
AS THE MEMORIES REMIND ME…GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD

AS THE MEMORIES REMIND ME…GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD

I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER…GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD.

ADD LIBS - Robin - -Steve

AS THE MEMORIES REMIND ME…REMIND ME…REMIND ME
GRIEF NEVER GROWS OLD




Also here is some additional information about some other artists that will sing along on the record (Chris also):


Singers Boy George and Sir Cliff Richard hope to help raise £2m for the tsunami relief fund after recording a charity single.

The song - Grief Never Grows Old - was written by radio DJ Mike Read.

Other stars being lined up to lay down vocals on the track include Ronan Keating, Jamie Cullum, Chris Rea and Robin and Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees.

Grease star Olivia Newton-John has also been approached to take part.

Read said he wrote the song before the tragedy unfolded on Boxing Day - but had no plans to release it as it was such a sad song.

"It is the business's way of saying 'what can we do?'," he said. "Well we can do this and keep the profile going, the awareness going, over a period of time.

"It's a natural home for it (the song) because people kept saying to me 'it's such a good song', but it is such a sad song."



And ofcourse!!!!! Here is a link to were you can buy the record:
