The song, "Yes," by McAlmont and Butler. It's driving me crazy!!! I've liked it for years, and I keep looking for the lyrics online, but can't find them for that particular song. There's only one main bit that I can't get:

"Am I looking better?
Well, you forgot...
Whatever it was that you couldn't stand
About me, about me, about me *******"

I can't understand what the starred bit is!!! So if anyone knows please tell me! :) Or if anyone knows where I can see the lyrics that would be great too :)

well iv been trawling the internet tryin to find it because its annoying me now, with no luck - i set down the gauntlet to someone else.

So you wanna know me now
How I've been
You can't help someone recover
After what you did
So tell me am I looking better?
Have you forgot
Whatever it was that you couldn't stand
About me about me about me?

Because...
Yes I do feel better
Yes I do I feel alright
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you got
To offer

You wanna know me now
How I've been
You can't help someone recover
After what you did
So tell me am I looking better?
Have you forgot
Whatever it was that you couldn't stand
About me about me about me?

Because...
Yes I do feel better
Yes I do I feel alright
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you got to offer
Because...
Yes I do feel better
Yes I do I feel alright
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you got
To offer

On and on and on and on and on and on and has no-one said...
Stay away, stay away... I'm better

Ye-ea-ea-ea--YES!
Ye-ea-ea-ea--YES!
Ye-ea-ea-ea--YES!
Ye-ea-ea-ea--YES!

I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you got

forgive me if im wrong but i don't think that actually answers the original question - there's a high pitched bit after "about me...."

Reading those lyrics and singing along in my head ;) I think that's the "because" bit that leads into the chorus.

oh this is doin my head in now, im goin to have to listen to it

[dominatrix]

yay :D thanks so much, i'll print em off. and yes, 'because' would fit the bit i was wondering about. such an empowering song, helps when i'm depressed :(

think i heard somewhere it s become a bit of a gay anthem since it s release - whatever that means

[dominatrix]

Well, I'm pretty sure David McAlmont is gay, so that's mebbes why. I actually thought that was a girl singing, at first :blush: til I looked it up on the net.
