Scarlett life of ill soldiers ?


Canada goes pop-rockin’again! With illScarlett’s “Life of a soldier” from the album “All Day With It” Canada hopes to reach a high ranking in TSGP 24.


Ill Scarlett – Life of a soldier


You're at home, I'm away
And if all I can say
Is that this boy is still the same
It's the man inside that's changed
Front of the line but still behind
Seems like I'm trying way too hard
And like I haven't tried at all
Hard as stone but feeling all the weight
Feeling all the weight that's crushing me
When you come around
You're like a little slice of heaven when I'm coming down
Lifting me up above the clouds

I'll sleep tonight but the war's far from over
Tomorrow is no guarantee
If I don't return from this life of a soldier
Don't you be crying for me.

Throw this all away
Nothing comes for free at least that's what they say
If I had the chance I'd do it all again
If I had the chance I'd do it all again
Racing against the clock trying to relieve the pressure
Pushing you away so we can be together
Carry me today I'll carry you forever
Let's take a chance and we'll see if this won't last
Hard as a stone but feeling all the weight
Feeling all the weight that's crushing me
When you come around
You're like a little slice of heaven when I'm coming down
Lifting me up above the clouds.

I'll sleep tonight but the war's far from over
Tomorrow is no guarantee
If I don't return from this life of a soldier
Don't you be crying for me.

There's a car pulling up and the man who's inside
Takes a deep breath as he straightens his tie
It's nothing new cause he's done this before
She knew it as soon as he knocked on the door
Please someone please tell me I must be dreaming
What will I do oh, I just can't believe it
Taken away, oh he's
Taken away
Someone take me away
Someone take me away.

I'll sleep tonight but the war's far from over
Tomorrow is no guarantee
If I don't return from this life of a soldier
Don't you be crying for me.

Nothing comes for free at least that's what they say
If I had the chance I'd do it all again

U Want me 2 win, Sarah McLachlan ?


Sarah McLachlan won TSGP-10 “The Classics” back in 2008 (see below for more info). Now she’ll return in TSGP-23 and will perform her song “U want me 2”. In Estonia in a though competition with 35 countries taking part. First goal is to survive the semi’s.


Sarah McLachlan - U Want me 2

You walk on by
Clueless and so high
Following your aimless path away from us
You’re so far away
And what can I say
Cause I can’t be the one you wanted me to be
So tell me how do you feel
It’s so confusingIf you let it all go, it’ll fall apart
Do you want me to stay and say I still want you
U want me 2, don’t you?

So what are we saying
Our eden’s a failure
A made-up story to fit the picture-perfect world
The one with “I do”s and I love you
And we are made for each other
Is forever over now?
And tell me how do you feel
It’s so confusing
If you let it all go, it’ll fall apart
Do you want me to stay and say I still want you
U want me 2, don’t you?

I hope there’s forgiveness
In the distance between us
Can we make what lies ahead of us a better place to be?

So tell me, how do you feel
It’s so confusing
If you let it all go, it’ll fall
Do you want me to stay and say I still want you
You want me too, don’t you?

Delirium & Isabel Bayrakdarian - Angelicus


She knows the voices in her mind
They tell her
To leave

She's tired smiling madly
Until silence becomes very silently
A noise in her mind

After all she's got nothing inside
No good to give
No meaning to live

The misting engulphed tonight
Every single star


After all he said could he simply say no?
After all he said he turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry that was really just a lie

She knows the noises in her mind
Nothing's left, but, screaming silence

After all she feels madness inside
The feelings gone, she's upside down
The pictures behind her closed us
It's time you learned to fall

After all he said could he simply say no?
After all he said he turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry that was really just a lie

After all he said could he simply say no?
After all he said he turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry that was really just a lie

After all she's got nothing inside
No good to give
No meanin' to live

The misting engulphed tonight
Every single star

After all he said could he simply say no?
After all he said he turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry that was really just a lie

After all he said could he simply say no?
After all he said he turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry that was really just a lie

After all he said could he simply say no?
After all he said he turned away from her to go
She said she wouldn't cry that was really just a lie
