"Clown" is a song by Scottish singer-songwriter Emeli Sandé. The video was held in the style of a Silent film and shows Sandé being urged by a group of men, in military uniform, to sign a document in order to get something in return.
The story of the song talks about Sandé's first experiences in the music industry, mainly reflecting her search to get signed by a music company and the encounters with several music business people in the industry. Commenting on the song, Sandé said: “It’s about how I felt when I was trying to get signed, I was going for all these meetings and people were looking at me like ‘What do we do with you’? It’s about not allowing yourself to be judged by others or to be taken for an idiot. I feel the video reflects that.” ( Emeli Sandé Clown by WIZ)

My Kind Of Love Lyrics I can't buy your love Don't even wanna try. Sometimes the truth won't make you happy, So I'm not gonna lie. But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you. I know I'm far from perfect, Nothin' like your entourage. I can't grant you any wishes, I won't promise you the stars. But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you. Cause when you've given up, When no matter what you do it's never good enough. When you never thought that it could ever get this tough, That's when you feel my kind of love. And when you're crying out. When you fall and then can't pick your happy off the ground When the friends you thought you had haven't stuck around. That's when you feel my kind of love. You won't see me at the parties, I guess I'm just no fun. I won't be turning up the radio Singing "Baby You're The One". But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you. | I know sometimes I get angry And I say what I don't mean. I know I keep my heart protected, Far away from my sleeve. But don't ever question if my heart beats only for you, it beats only for you. Cause when you've given up When no matter what you do it's never good enough. When you never thought that it could ever get this tough, That's when you feel my kind of love. And when you're crying out. When you fall and then can't pick your happy off the ground When the friends you thought you had haven't stuck around. That's when you feel my kind of love. Cause when you've given up. When no matter what you do it's never good enough. When you never thought that it could ever get this tough, That's when you feel my kind of love. |
"Heaven" song by Emeli Sandé
In an interview with Digital Spy Sandé discussed the background of the song; ". . . The song was written after a very long conversation I had with [producer] Naughty Boy. We got into a very deep conversation about religion and how to be good – what we all try to do in this day and age and how difficult it is. He said, 'I guess you just have to keep your heart clean' and that sparked the whole song. It was done really quickly and we knew it was a special one as soon as it was done."

The line between good and evil is permeable and almost anyone can be induced to cross it when pressured by situational forces. --- Philip Zimbardo
If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed. --- Albert Einstein

Heaven *Lyrics Will you recognize me In those flashing lights? I try to keep my heart clean But I can't get it right Will you recognize me When I'm lying on my back? Something's gone inside me And I can't get it back Oh heaven, oh heaven I wake with good intentions But the day it always lasts too long Then I'm gone Oh heaven, oh heaven I wake with good intentions But the day it always lasts too long Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone [X2] Will you recognize me When I'm stealing from the poor You're not gonna like me I'm nothing like before Will you recognize me When I lose another friend Will you learn to leave me Or give me one more try again Oh heaven, oh heaven I wake with good intentions But the day it always lasts too long Then I'm gone Oh heaven, oh heaven I wake with good intentions But the day it always lasts too long | Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone [X2] Oh heaven, oh heaven I wait with good intentions [X3] You say that you're away I try but always break 'Cause the day always lasts too long Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone Then I'm gone [X2] *Songwriters Sande, Emeli / Spencer, Mike / Chegwin, Hugo / Craze, Harry / Khan, Shahid |
