Miracles

About Miracles

"Miracles" is a single by Pet Shop Boys, released in 2003. It was the first single, and one of two new songs, from their 2003 singles compilation, PopArt. It achieved moderate airplay on the radio and peaked at number 10 on the UK Singles Chart. It was co-written by Drum & Bass musicians, Fresh (real name Dan Stein), and Adam F. Orchestration was conducted by Anne Dudley, who would later work on Pet Shop Boys' 2006 album Fundamental alongside past musical collaborator Trevor Horn. Remixes were produced by Lemon Jelly and Eric Prydz. The B-side track "We're the Pet Shop Boys" is a cover of a 2002 song recorded by New York band My Robot Friend, in tribute to the Pet Shop Boys themselves; one part of the lyrics is an extended sequence of Pet Shop Boys song titles. It was covered again by Robbie Williams, with production by the Pet Shop Boys, on his 2006 album Rudebox. The music video, directed by Howard Greenhalgh, reportedly cost nearly £100,000. It primarily shows human figures interacting with cascades of water and milk, captured in intricate detail by the slow-motion footage (Greenhalgh also made extensive use of water in the video for "Congo" (1997) by Genesis). The buildings on the background include Calatrava's Gare do Oriente and others from the Nations' Park area in Lisbon. more »

Clouds drift away
When they see you 
Rain wouldn't dare
To fall near you here
Miracles happen
When you're around
Somehow the grass is much greener
Rivers flow faster and cleaner
Being with you
No matter where
Sunlight breaks through
And suddenly there's

A bluer sky
Whenever you're around
You always bring
A bluer sky
A brighter day

Thunder is silent before you
Roses bloom more to adore you too
Miracles happen
When you're around
The sunset is deeper and longer
The scent of the jasmine is stronger
Stray dogs don't bite
Birds start to sing
Lightening daren't strike
You suddenly bring

A bluer sky
Whenever you're around 
You always bring
A bluer sky
A brighter day
Birds fly
Even higher in the sky
Sun shines
It's a new day
