Female Vocals

I'm a sucker for female vocals and key changes in a song especially slow ones, and i have a new song.. Turning Tables but with Gwyneth Paltrow singing, i never knew she could sing but i want her voice! Well in general i would love to be able to sing but i've had singing lessons for about 4 weeks and didn't like the teacher so that went well..

I heard it on glee, and i don't normally watch the tv programme but when you cant sleep boredom makes you do weird things, and this is a glee which hasn't been released in the UK yet and it was based on a night of neglect, so anyway its an Adele song and normally i find Adele a bit tedious sometimes as she seems to drone on at times, but with Gwyneth Paltrow singing it, this song actually touched me and i felt close to it.

Turning Tables
Close enough to start a war 
All that I have is on the floor 
God only knows what we're fighting for 
All that I say, you always say more 

I can't keep up with your turning tables 
Under your thumb, I can't breathe 

So, I won't let you close enough to hurt me 
No, I won't ask you, you to just desert me 
I cant give you, what you think you gave me 
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables 
To turning tables 

Under haunted skies I see ooh 
Where love is lost, your ghost is found 
I braved a hundred storms to leave you 
As hard as you try, no I will never be knocked down 

I can't keep up with your turning tables 
Under your thumb, I can't breathe 

So, I won't let you close enough to hurt me, no 

I won't ask you, you to just desert me 
I cant give you, what you think you gave me 
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables 
Turning tables 

Next time I'll be braver 
I'll be my own savior 
When the thunder calls for me 
Next time I'll be braver 
I'll be my own savior 
Standing on my own two feet 

I won't let you close enough to hurt me, no 
I won't ask you, you to just desert me 
I cant give you, what you think you gave me 
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables 
To turning tables 
Turning tables, yeah 
Turning, oh 

This song i feel reflects so much of what used to go on my mind about 2/3 years ago and i'm glad i'm out of that phase of my life and that now i am happy and i completely believe in this song. This song has affected me and made me think and has given me countless car journeys with this song on repeat in the sunshine, especially during the key changes around the 5th verse, i actually get so engrossed in this song and i honestly am hooked right now.

So until i find a new song that i can obsess overr..
