Jesus Christ, I believe you
The deepest trust, I won’t leave you
They call me crazy - but it won’t matter
And death won’t change me - not ever

Jesus Christ, I believe you
The deepest trust, I won’t leave you
But my child is fading, an innocent
I hear no answer, I’m calling

My voice is reaching the sky
I’d do anything to save this life
Take me instead
Ah, God give me death

Jesus Christ, I believe you
They call me crazy - but it won’t matter
And death won’t change me - not ever

My voice is reaching the sky
I’d do anything to save this life
Take me instead
Ah, God give me death
Ah, God give me death

    This song seems odd to me, I mean ssince his other albums are called things like 666 and about God not being real. Yet here's this one that seems likehe's a full Christian? What's up with that? Nothing wrong with him being a Christian, but it's just odd.

    I don't know if this is Hyde proclaiming his Christianity, or if it's him making a point that God does not exist. Like, people are calling him crazy because he has this deep trust in something that's not real, and when he calls to God he hears no answer. And maybe he's saying it's stupid to sacrifice your life ("death won't change me"..."God give me death") for a God that's not even listening...

    "Faith" is a concept album centered around Hyde's exploration of Christianity. From what I can tell, each song describes a different emotional state that a Christian goes through in relationship with God. Whereas Season's Call is about the joy and love of worship, this song is quite the opposite; it is about the anguish and grief of loss, with the believer pleading for God's help. Hyde has an interesting relationship with religion in general. For the most part, he seems to clearly not be Christian or even theist, but at the same time, he's always had a certain fascination with religion. I don't think "Faith" necessarily describes his personal opinion on Christianity; rather, it is an expression of his attempt to understand the beliefs and mindset of Christians as a whole.

Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
Per the FAQ on Keane's website, Keane's drummer Richard Hughes, stated the following: "We've been asked whether "Somewhere Only We Know" is about a specific place, and Tim has been saying that, for him, or us as individuals, it might be about a geographical space, or a feeling; it can mean something individual to each person, and they can interpret it to a memory of theirs... It's perhaps more of a theme rather than a specific message... Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time..." With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone."

Just listening for the 784,654th time....and it's just perfect in every way. Just incredible. The only reason it was remade was to scoop up a boatload of money from a more modern and accepting audience. But it is a completely different song than the other one that sounds slapped together in a few takes without a thought for the meaning. This song captivates me still, after 50+ years. Takes me to the deep South and the poverty of some who lived thru truly hard times. And the powerful spirit of a poor young girl being abandoned to her future with only a red dress and her wits to keep her alive. She not only stayed alive, she turned her hard beginnings around, became self sufficient, successful and someone with respect for herself. She didn't let the naysayers and judgers stop her. She's the one sitting in the drivers seat at the end. So, not a song about a poor girl, but a song of hope and how you can rise up no matter how far down you started. There is a huge difference between a singer who simply belts out a song that is on a page in front of them, and someone who can convey an entire experience with their voice. Telling not just a story with words, but taking you inside it and making you feel like you are there, with their interpretation.
