Sobre el álbum

El álbum Forever Now, de 1994, es un trabajo marcado por el breve regreso de los miembros originales Phil Gould (en la composición) y Mike Lindup. El disco es visto por muchos como una vuelta al sonido más clásico y colaborativo de la banda.

El álbum recupera parte de la magia de sus mejores trabajos, con una excelente colección de canciones de pop-funk y soul. De hecho, la producción es elegante y la interacción entre los músicos es magnífica. Temas como la propia "Forever Now" o "Learn to Say No" tienen la calidad de sus grandes clásicos.

Las tensiones internas volvieron a aparecer, y la banda se disolvería poco después del lanzamiento del disco, haciendo de este trabajo un canto del cisne agridulce. "Forever Now" es un álbum excelente que, lamentablemente, supuso el final de un capítulo en la historia de Level 42.

  3. Play Me6:09

    Letra

    I must say you're really something else The way you're tearing down my house And I know you'd never stoop so low As to rebuild it somewhere else You know how to play me Everybody knows you can handle me Play me Nothing can compare with what I've found today It hasn't always been this good I haven't always loved you like I should But it's really something else I love you like I never thought I could You got to play me Everybody knows I been woman handled Play me Nothing can compare with what I've found today Been out on my own For too many years You came not a day too soon - I was out of my mind You swallowed my pride And dried all my tears Gone is the only tune I sang You really know You really know how to You really know how to play me All the women of my dreams Were the kind who lived beyond my means But I know you'd never stoop so low Your love is always what it seems You got to play me Everybody knows I've been - woman handled Play me Nothing can compare with what I've found today Here in the night it's a shot in the dark For sure that's a chance I'll take -one day at a time A feeling so right it's a walk in the park It's so easy to make or break She sang so easy Suis reste seul Pour trop longtemps Vide de coeur Vide de sens Tu es arrivee Secher mes larmes Reconforte, je te regarde
  4. Sunbed Song
  5. Past Lives5:39

    Letra

    An angel came to me last night She saw me in a different light She told me all things I thought I could be Are not a million miles away As surely as night follows day It follows, I'm a king not a slave Is this another case of déjà vu It seems to happen everyday It all comes back to me whatever I do There's always been a price to pay Past lives, past lives You can never put the ghost to bed Get the feeling that you live, forever she said Past lives, past lives Rub my stomach while I pat my head Get the feeling in your mind When you're out of your head And to the eastern side of the bay My shadow is sailing away Treasured possessions and money to burn I won't be taking these with me I hear the echoes and I've nowhere to turn After all I'm all at sea Past lives, past lives We can anchor off the coast she said The storm will pass and the fog will clear in your head Past lives, past lives You can never put the ghost to bed Get the feeling that we live forever she said In another world where dreams collide To the mocking bird of faith we're tied She comes to pass but not to stay Through the looking glass, she fades away Welcome to the house of usher [Repeat chorus] An angel saw through me last night She sold me down the river of life

    Letra

    Away with all those tales of romance You try so hard And I can't take the heartbreak you weave Don't cry alone Oh baby baby don't give up on me Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up and you will see Oh baby baby this I guarantee Turn it up, turn it up it'll be alright Alright, I said some things need to change Desires? ... maybe But I don't like to rearrange your lies (your lies) So cry alone Oh baby baby don't give up on me Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up I'm begging please Oh baby baby this I guarantee Turn it up, turn it up it'll be alright Love's a special thing Lovers only need honesty Two hearts the same (two hearts the same) Beating in the name of romance And I don't care who gives in 'cause it's only a game The end is just the same And what remains is why you're crying alone So alone Oh baby baby don't give up on me Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up I'm begging please Oh baby baby this I guarantee Turn it up, turn it up, it'll be alright Turn it up, turn it up, it'll be alright Turn it up, turn it up, it'll be alright
  9. Time Will Heal4:08

    Letra

    I know you want to get into my mind But I'm not gonna let you in Until I've had the time to begin to know you better I know you want to get into my heart But I'm not gonna let you in Til you've given me the time to heal a wound still bleeding If you want a love that'll last You're moving much to fast You gotta take your time, take it day by day Time will heal me Time will heal me And babe take your time Time will heal I know you want to get into my mind To wash away the hurt and sorrow To let me know that you are the answer to my question The problem is that love is often blind It fools you into thinking you're happy Then suddenly the mask falls away and leaves you weeping If you are the promised land I've yet to understand And while there's room for doubt we take it Day by day Time will heal me Time will heal me Babe heal me And babe take your time With you near me Time will heal me Time will heal me I can't say the words you want to hear But maybe given time Time will heal The pain I feel inside Time will heal The hurting and the pride Time will heal I'll open up my heart to you Time will heal I'll find the words to say to you Time will heal The world will see the change in me Time will heal
  10. Learn to Say No4:14

    Letra

    No sweat, no pain No lost, no gain More of the same You've got to stop that straight away Beg the question There in the answer lies Search your soul for a self control (Redefine your roll But keep your feet on the ground) Sooner or later Maybe tomorrow Sooner or later You've got to learn to say NO I'll be cruel to be kind You play it cool every time Playing games in your mind You've got to stop that straight away Sad and lonely But you say you're having fun Don't you know you been had enough When push comes to shove You always let yourself down Sooner or later Maybe tomorrow Sooner or later You've got to learn to say NO The key to moving on is knowing when it's over Sometimes surrender is the only way to go Sad and lonely But you say you're having fun Seem to me you've been so confused Can't you see that it's time to choose You've got to beg your questions There in the answer lies Don't you know you been had enough When push comes to shove you're always let yourself down Sooner or later Maybe tomorrow Sooner or later You've got to learn to say NO

    Letra

    Deep down we're all the same Fools by any other name Too proud to share the blame Too damn scared to bear the pain I see a smiling face She leaves me from this loveless place Hates to see love go to waste Oh man, here I go again Mother nature must have put a curse on me, yeah I try to hide it but you know I can't be true We could stick together to the bitter end But you know I'll never be a model friend Oh man, you know I tried To keep the lid on a love denied Set sail gotta catch the tide Meet me there on the other side The line is paper thin Where friendship ends and love begins I've got to know how I fit in Oh man, my hands are tied Mother nature must have put a curse on me, yeah I try to change it but there's nothing I can do I could make you happy but I can't pretend So you know I'll never be a model friend Mother nature must have put a curse on me, yeah I try to hide it but you know I can't be true We could stick together to the bitter end But you know I'll never be a model friend Mother nature must have put a curse on me, yeah I try to change it but there's nothing I can do I could make you happy but I can't pretend So you know I'll never be a model friend Be a model friend Be a model friend Deep down we're all the same Fools by any other name Too proud to share the blame Too damn scared to bear the pain Oh man, here I go again
  13. Love in a Peaceful World6:45

    Letra

    You came from out of nowhere Yesterday Well you blew my cool but that's ok! I guess I couldn't run forever Anyway I knew I'd have to face the truth someday Strange after all these years After all my tears To find you there in front of me When I lost you in the crowd I was so full of doubt But that's not the way it's meant to be Ego and pride The great divide I was but I'm not crazy now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world I grew up with a small town Mentality Yeah, it's a universal frame of mind I was trying to make the changes But I couldn't see (oh, why are we so blind) Couldn't see above the bottom line Searching for common ground Used to bring me down I had better ways to spend my days Then I lost you in the crowd I was so full of doubt But that's not the way I feel today Ego and pride The great divide I was but I'm not faking now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world Can't be denied Or justified Hold me and stop me shaking now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world Hey you You gotta break out You gotta follow through You gotta try to find a way Dream on But don't lose the feelings When there's nothing to hold on to You gotta learn to feel your way Strange (strange) after all these years After all my fears To remember things we used to say (strange) when I lost you in the crowd I was so full of doubt But that's not the way I feel today Ego and pride The great divide I was but I'm not crazy now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world Can't be denied Or justified Hold me and stop me shaking now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world Ego and pride The great divide I was but I'm not faking now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world Can't be denied Or justified Hold me and stop me shaking now Don't multiply The tears we cry I want love in a peaceful world Transmit and receive You gotta feel to believe Wear my heart on my sleeve I'll never lie or flatter to deceive you Transmit and receive You gotta feel to believe it Wear my heart on my sleeve Now that I found you - never gonna leave you Transmit and receive I'll never lie or flatter to deceive you You gotta believe Now that I found you - never gonna leave you Oo-oo-ooh ...
  14. One in a Million4:56

    Letra

    Only one girl in a million Is the one I'm searching for And I know that she'll be different From all I've known before I have raised my expectations I have followed every star And I'll travel every highway No matter how near, how far Where is she Who will be The fulfilment of my dreams? Could it be Fantasy That may never come to me? Spent my lifetime searching for the one And a lifetime's work is never done But in aiming for perfection Other hearts have passed me by It's a lonely road I travel By building my hopes so high I've been told "you're so cold, Where's the passion, where's the fire?" Lying in wait Until fate Lights the flames of my desire Spent my lifetime searching for the one And a lifetime's work is never done Throw a lifeline if you're close to me And I'll give you all you'll ever need I spend my lifetime searching for the one And a lifetime's work is never done Throw a lifeline if you're close to me And I'll give you all you'll ever need
  15. Talking in Your Sleep3:53

    Letra

    Oh baby you've been talking in your sleep I've been lying here listening to a secret you had meant to keep inside of you were you dreaming of his face I can't begin to take it in, I even know the time and the place Like the scene in the film that removes all doubt There's a shot of a man who wakes with a shout As he steps from a dream he figures it out That's me today At the end of a book when the plot unfolds But the lines on the page leave a tale untold of the spy who never came in from the cold That's me today yeah Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Oooooooohhhhhhhhhh The force of love sometimes hard to resist But I never thought I'd see the day Never thought we'd come to this So angry now and I'm sure you'd feel the same I heard it said you took his bed though you barely knew his name Like the boy leaving home with a hole in his heart Tries to fill up the void with a brand new start Not a day goes by when he's not torn apart That's me today Like the way that it looks in a seaside town When the shutters go up and the flags come down And the beaches are bare and there's no one around That's me today yeaahhhh [laughing] Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep Talking in your sleep
