No thanks.... I much, much, much prefer the Cyndi Lauper version. She has such an amazing, emotive voice.

Not to mention has strong ties to the gay community and really is an iconic figure that has stood up for gay rights as a pop artist.

But ignoring all that her version of the song is so much more beautiful.

You're right Saben. Cyndi enunciates the lyrics more clearly and would have been the better choice.

I used Phil for the same reason that the guy kissed the cow. It's all a matter of tastes.

It’s really interesting how music can evoke. I was thinking of posting this song yesterday for the very same reason. I love synchronicity!

These days are moving fast ahead
And one more day like this
Could change everything that we
Ever thought would keep these days
We're always in and out of everything
I feel like someone is turning tricks on me
And we're losing our grip

So why did you deny it
There really isn't time for it
No time for it
So why did you deny it

It's all a strange, a strange act of things
We can't postpone it any longer
It's all around
From mouth to mouth
We can't ignore this consequence

Shifted in between
All of these
Twisted thoughts that we had
Could it turn out that we've lost what we had?

So why did you deny it
There really isn't time for it
No time for it
So why did you deny it

People will tell you where they've gone
They'll tell you where to go
But till you get there yourself you never really know
Where some have found their paradise
Other's just come to harm
