  • Whenever I Say Your Name
    Whenever I say your name, whenever I call to mind your face
    Whatever bread's in my mouth, whatever the sweetest wine that I taste
    Whenever your memory feeds my soul, whatever got broken becomes whole
    Whenever I'm filled with doubts that we will be together
    Wherever I lay me down, wherever I put my head to sleep
    Whenever I hurt and cry, whenever I got to lie awake and weep
    Whenever I kneel to pray, whenever I need to find a way
    I'm calling out your name
    Whenever those dark clouds hide the moon
    Whenever this world has gotten so strange
    I know that something's gonna change
    Something's gonna change
    Whenever I say your name, Whenever I say your name, I'm already praying, I'm already praying
    I'm already filled with a joy that I can't explain
    Wherever I lay me down, wherever I rest my weary head to sleep
    Whenever I hurt and cry, whenever I got to lie awake and weep
    Whenever I'm on the floor
    Whatever it was that I believed before
    Whenever I say your name, whenever I say it loud, I'm already praying
    Whenever this world has got me down, whenever I shed a tear
    Whenever the TV makes me mad, whenever I'm paralyzed with fear
    Whenever those dark clouds fill the sky, whenever I lose the reason why
    Whenever I'm filled with doubts that we will be together
    Whenever the sun refuse to shine, whenever the skies are pouring rain
    Whatever I lost I thought was mine whenever I close my eyes in pain
    Whenever I kneel to pray, whenever I need to find a way
    I'm calling out your name
    Whenever this dark begins to fall
    Whenever I'm vulnerable and small
    Whenever I feel like I could die
    Whenever I'm holding back the tears that I cry
    Whenever I say your name, whenever I call to mind your face
    I'm already praying
    Whatever bread's in my mouth, whatever the sweetest wine that I taste
    Wherever I lay me down, wherever I rest my weary head to sleep
    Whenever I hurt and cry, whenever I'm forced to lie awake and have to weep
    Whenever I'm on the floor
    Whatever it was that I believed before
    Whenever I say your name, whenever I say it loud, I'm already praying
    Whenever I say your name,
    No matter how long it takes,
    One day we'll be together
    Whenever I say your name,
    let there be no mistake
    that day will last forever

    Sting, please continue take good care of yourself. After Prince and Bowie, you, Beck, and Morrissey are all I have.

    Mary j Blige and things to it is very powerful. Mary j Blige talks about survival and what she remembers when she needs to survive.

    This is a great song, a great composition, and well worthy of the Grammy it won. Some of the previous comments mentioned dissatisfaction with the way the song ends; doesn't this song have spiritual as well as romantic meanings? So the ending is not weird or crappy; it's traditional gospel music in the African-American genre, which, all things considered, makes perfect sense.

    The chorus is influenced by J.S. Bach's prelude in C major, BWV 924

    It's better live when sting is with the orchestra, and the other singer who doesn't try and over do it.
    Sting many times does stuff better live because sometimes the studio stuff is a little canned. I think live he gives his musicians a little more freedom so it's not overly refined.

      I hadn't heard this song before I heard it a few months ago on Qello...on the Live from Berlin concert with the orchestra and Jo Lawry's help on vocals. So the version posted here with Mary J is not original to me it is the second version.
      I strongly prefer the Jo Lawry version with the symphony. It's slicker and seems to go better with the song itself. But this version has it's merits...percussion is more important in this version I think...also Mary J is nothing to sneeze at, she has more than proven herself over the years! But I think the takeaway is when you start with a good song, and you apply good musicians to it, the outcomes can be infinite and beautiful.
      The song has great bones. It is a great start to any performance by a talented musician.

    Moron or a genius, that would be Sting himself, I guess:
    ''Love me like a prodigy
    Love me like an idiot boy"
    I get your point, it's true that the song's coda is a bit jarring, but I'm sure Sting designed the song this way precisely to showcase Blige: since he had her for just one song he wanted both the soft and the hard side of her. It's a heartbreakingly beautiful song, the main body of it, and the coda doesn't really ruin it for me.

    I know sting always seems to mess up a song with that shit lol

  • @asoberprep
    @asoberprep 15 лет назад +1

    LOL that lady is a famous rapper Mary J blige why the song was so awesome that he picked someone like that but if you listen to alot of stings works he does alot of that ballot crap at the end and sometimes in the middle of his songs. Sucks. Think he trying to be jazzy sounded doesnt work and never has with his stuff.

  • @henryprzepiorka8239

    His voice is not suited to soul music, so he's overshadowed by Blige's ostentatious vulgarity

      @All 4 EL Elyon+ Holy shit what an idiotic use of the "race card." Sting was at his finest when he was playing JAZZ with some real heavy-hitting African-American pros like Branford Marsalis, Darryl Jones, and Kenny Kirkland among others.
      This song just happens to be inane and repetitious as fuck. That the style doesn't suit him is not only a defensible opinion, but may well explain why this over-produced shit album was selling on Amazon used for a penny in a matter of weeks!
      Even Sting's dabbling in Country offered mixed results...
