«I could’ve shown you how to cry«

Y llegamos al final de la lista. Esta canción practicamente salvo la carrera de los Manics, llegando a un sorpresivo #2 en los charts, en gran parte gracias a la gran idea de invitar a Nina Persson, que le da otra dimensión a la canción. Y, como tenía que ser, esta canción es escrita por los 4. Sean y James en la música, Nicky en la letra y Richie en la inspiración, ya que la canción habla en gran parte de el, en que si pudo haber salvado antes de su desaparición, en que tal vez no le dieron la atención que debía, o lo que pudo haber sido si alguien se hubiera dado cuenta que tan mal estaba. Todo un clásico de los Manics. Gracias por prestar atención en este mes a esta lista.

Manic Street Preachers – Your Love Alone Is Not Enough

Your love alone is not enough, not enough, not enough
When times get tough they get tough, they get tough, they get tough
Trade all your heroes in for ghosts, in for ghosts, in for ghosts
They’re always the ones who love you most, love you most, love you most

Your love alone is not enough, not enough, not enough
It’s what you felt, it’s what you said, what you said, what you said
You said the sky would fall on you, fall on you, fall on you
Through all the pain your eyes stayed Blue, they stayed Blue, Baby Blue

But your love alone won’t save the world
You knew the secret of the universe
Despite it all you made it worse
It left you lonely, it left you cursed

You stole the sun straight from my heart, from my heart, from heart
With no excuses just fell apart, fell apart, fell apart
No you won’t make a mess of me, mess of me, mess of me
For you’re as blind as a man can be, man can be, man can be

I could have seen for miles and miles
I could have made you feel alive
I could have placed us in exile
I could have written all your lies
I could have shown you how to cry

Your love alone is not enough
Your love alone is not enough…
