About Sound

"Sound" is a song written by Jim Glennie, Larry Gott, Tim Booth and was the first single taken from Seven, the fourth studio album by the Manchester band James. Released in November 1991, it reached #9 in the UK Singles Chart, the second of the group's three top 10 hits to date. Apart from "Sit Down", "Sound" is the band's only entry into the top 30 of the Irish singles chart. Clocking in at over six and a half minutes on the album, the song was shortened considerably for the single version. The CD release featured both the album and the single version, along with a dub remix of "Come Home" and an original song called "All My Sons". more »

 Struggling with Sound? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Ape your father's sins, your mother's mood swings 
To perfection 
Fall into a spin, shed another skin 
Strip away all your protection 

Laugh at the wonder of it all 
Laugh so loud you break the fall 
And you see the gathering clouds 
Cry at the sadness of the world 
Cry so long you break its cold 
And you hear the gathering sounds 

Do everything you fear 
In this there's power 
Fear is not to be afraid of 

Laugh at the wonder of it all 
Laugh so loud you break your fall 
And you hear the gathering sounds 

Come, dip on in 
Leave your bones, leave your skin 
Leave your past, leave your craft 
Leave your suffering heart
