2005년 [Generations] 앨범을 발표한 이래 3년만에 베테랑 록 그룹 저니가 컴백했다. 미국에서 2008년 6월 3일에 발매된 신작 [Revelation]은 첫 주 107,000장의 판매고를 올리며 빌보드 앨범차트 5위에 오르는 좋은 성적을 거두기도 했다. 이번 신작에는 새로운 보컬리스트 아넬 피네다(Arnel Pineda)가 합류했는데, 1967년 9월 5일 필리핀 마닐라 태생이라는 점이 특이하다. 하지만 저니의 전성기 시절을 함께 했던 리드 보컬 스티브 페리(Steve Perry)와 비교해도 손색이 없을 정도로 허스키하면서도 힘 있는 아넬의 보컬은 매우 매력적이다.
이번 신작 [Revelation]은 2CD로 구성되어 있는데, 먼저 첫 번째 CD에는 11곡의 신곡이 담겨 있다. 그 중에서도 국내 록 발라드 팬들의 사랑을 받을 만한 아름다운 멜로디의 'After All These Years'와 전형적인 저니 스타일의 힘찬 록 넘버 'Never Walk Away'는 단연 으뜸이다. 두 번째 CD에는 'Faithfully'(83년 12위), 'Open Arms'(82년 6위), 'Who's Crying Now'(81년 4위), 'Any Way You Want It'(80년 23위), 'Separate Ways'(83년 8위), 'Be Good To Yourself'(86년 9위) 등 주옥같은 저니의 지난 명곡들을 아넬의 보컬로 다시 레코딩해 수록했다. .... ....
So young in love They couldn't wait Said their vows Just to run away Suddenly, they felt their lives had changed They believed their hearts Were strong Just to find They couldn't get along They didn't care It slowly (falls or comes) undone [Chorus:] Will she go or will she stay (will she stay) Pull herself (through or for) one more day Don't give up Never walk away Love's a promise that he made In his heart it still remains Don't give up Never walk away Had to meet somewhere half way Heart to heart Face to face Compromise the price they had to pay Cared enough to stand on ground Screamed and shouted 'til the walls came down Won the fight Still a brand new day [Chorus 2x] Never walk away Oh, oh (never walk away) Never walk away
Girl, tell me what's wrong Are those tears in your eyes What's going on between us I'm ready to listen I don't care if it takes all night
We both said something we didn't mean We lost our heads Now I can't sleep 'Til you talk to me
We find the sun through the rain Caught in a sunshower We'll be all right, no one's to blame After the storm, we'll shine So rare you and me disagree Love's like a sunshower
When you meet me, babe Somewhere halfway, yeah
It's been way too long Since we shared what's in our hearts Let's say this charade is over Ooh, we can't take for granted How far we've come Let's not lose each other
I know you care, 'cause you stand your ground When we talked enough I wanna make up Wanna make love
We find the sun through the rain Caught in a sunshower We'll be alright No one's to blame After the storm, we'll shine So rare you and me disagree Love's like a sunshower
Baby, babe Somewhere we'll find We won't regret We won't forget Rainbows wait for you and me Girl, we're caught in a sunshower
When we've talked enough Can we make up Can we make love, ooh Yeah
Down the lowest I can go With no one left to turn On the edge, I lose control Before I crash and burn Can I turn around Slow it down, oh
Hold on, we've still got living to do So far gone See life for someone like you In your eyes You showed me reasons to live Take time The time it takes to forgive
It's my life, it'll change for the better I've faced the light It's worth the fight See a new day Start a new way Get it straight Make it change for the better
I was dying, a drowning man And I wish you well Pull me from the darkness And save me from myself
Wake up, shake it off Let go What I'm pretending to be I know I'm still the man I could be, yeah
It's my life, it'll change for the better I've faced the light It's worth the fight See a new day Start a new way Get it straight Make a change for the better
I'm waking up to find A different state of mind There was a new place, I'm okay I've changed for the better
I've opened up my eyes I'm glad to be alive It's never too late To cheat fate Changed for the better
And now then there is no hope Until we are faced without We can never fall in love Until we learn to live without In our love we can't find peace Without conflict in our lives And the healing will begin, oh 'Til we open up our eyes
It's my life, it'll change for the better I've faced the light It's worth the fights See a new day Start a new way Get it straight It all comes together
Made my mind up There's still time enough I'm all right Made a change for the better
Change for the better Change for the better, yeah Oh, oh, oh Yeah, I'm all right Oh
Two different worlds collide Somehow come together Caught in the moment Blind with desire The way I want of you I should have known better Moving way too fast Jumping through the fire
I can't regret you Somewhere we went wrong I won't forget you Long after you've gone
Oh, you're still in my wildest dream Getting the best of me The way you used to do Tell me, do Do you still think of me The way I could make you feel When love was all we knew In my wildest dream, yeah
We had our time to shine Before we started fading Could not see eye to eye Pretending nothing's wrong We open up our eyes and asked when love was gone I still think about you And how you've been Getting by without you But still you come again
Oh, you're still in my wildest dream Getting the best of me The way you used to do Tell me, do Do you still think of me The way I could make you feel When love was all we knew In my wildest dream
And on a bed of roses Under the pale moonlight I wait for sweet surrender Until another night
Oh, you're still in my wildest dream Getting the best of me The way you used to do Oh, tell me, do Do you still think of me The way I could make you feel When love was all we knew In your wildest dream
Can't get you off my mind In my wildest dream Can't get you off my mind Oh, oh, in your wildest dream Ooh, in your wildest dream, yeah Oh, oh, oh
He goes to work in a brand new dawn With the early morning sunrise He''s got his dream and he''s holding on It''s getting harder every day
He loves a girl who speaks her mind Don''t always look at life the same way Sharing truth that will heal in time
They want to believe something real Still they''re searching They''re keeping the faith in the heartland tonight
Time moves on as the fading town And they struggle with the changes The stores have closed, friends have moved away Now it''s hope that sees him through
The kids have gone but they''ll see them all At the Sunday congregation Sharing dreams truth will heal in time
They want to believe something real Still they''re searching They''re keeping the faith in the heartland tonight Ooh, it''s words that divide them It''s love that defines them They''re keeping the faith in the heartland tonight
In our darkest hour, oh, we look to the sky With a silent prayer Believe that God''s on our side In a land where freedom rings And where eagles fly Ooh yeah, yeah
They want to believe something real Still they''re searching They''re keeping the faith in the heartland tonight Yeah, it''s words that divide them It''s love that defines them They''re keeping the faith in the heartland tonight
Ooh, I just want to believe it
Give me something to believe in We all need something to believe in In the heart tonight
Got faith Got dreams Yeah, we''re keeping the faith alive
A faded wedding photograph You and me in our first dance Our eyes are closed We're lost in one sweet embrace Since those days the world has changed But our love remains the same God knows we've had our share of saving grace
And I'm proud of all the blessings You have given me The mountains we have climbed to get this far You've learned to take the laughter with the tears After all these years
You make it feel brand new After the fires that we walked through Against the odds we never lost our faith
In our house we've made our home Where our children all have grown Precious moments time cannot erase
Make a living up and down the gypsy highways Seasons that we've had to share apart Somehow in my heart I always keep you near me After all these years
After all these years You stood by me The days and nights that I was gone After all these years You sacrificed, believed in me And you stood strong Cause with our love there's nothing left to fear After all these years
After all these years You stood by me The days and nights that I was gone After all these years You've sacrificed, believed in me And you stood strong Cause with our love there's nothing left to fear After all these years
Desperately falling Feeling our love set us free We were better together Believed it was all meant to be Stay as one forever The band of gold would always prevail Happy in the moment Life betrays one, a fairytale Memories time cannot erase I still see your face
Where did I lose your love You'll always be the question in my heart How could I make you stay I still regret the night you walked away What we shared was not enough Where did I lose your love
Never saw it coming You left so suddenly What was here that scared you You want what I couldn't see Emotions time cannot erase I still see your face
Where did I lose your love You'll always be the question in my heart How could I make you stay I still regret the night you walked away What we shared was not enough Where did I lose your love
So far from each other So close to happiness I'll be there to remind you Love forgives but never forgets Emotions time cannot erase I still see your face
Where did I lose your love You'll always be the question in my heart How could I make you stay I still regret the night you walked away
How could I make you stay Where did I lose your love Still regret the night you walked away Oh, oh, yeah
Missing something in my life Searching for it day and night Couldn't seem to get it right 'Til you walked my way Leaving lovers one by one Didn't like who I'd become Couldn't face myself, I turn and run Made me see that I could change
Out of my darkness As I step into the light We get a new day Taking one step at a time
You were what I needed I was falling Hiding my emotion You made me see the truth Your love was what I needed Hear me calling Waiting for a lifetime Girl, you were my rescue All I needed was you
I used to always get my way Told me that you wouldn't stay Had to face it, what you had to say If I wanted you You tell me when I did you wrong I guess I've known it all along Cared enough and you stood strong I believed in you
In my frustrations Tried to become someone else The years I've wasted I'd been lying to myself
You were what I needed I was falling Hiding my emotion You made me see the truth Your love was what I needed Hear me calling Waiting for a lifetime Hear me calling What I needed What I needed was you
In you I found shelter How you believed in me, stood strong You were there through my darkest hour You lifted my spirit up Brought out the best in me And now I'll stand before you with all my love
You were what I needed I was falling Hiding my emotion But you made me see the truth Your love was what I needed Hear me calling Waiting for a lifetime Girl you were my rescue What I needed was you
Day has come You're prepared Electricity in the air Feel the calm Feel the rush You want to leave victorious Will you look in their eyes They want you gone, they want the prize When day is done, risk it all One will stand, and one will fall
When you learn to lose You'll know what it takes to win Wanna go the distance With a hunger that never ends When you want to prove You're the best that's ever been They can knock you down You're on your feet again 'Cause you know what it takes What it takes to win
Seal the deal Get it done Earn the right to say you've won Work it out Sacrifice Someone's gonna have to pay the price Face to face Stand your ground Stay in the zone, now don't back down More than pride You depend Fighting hard 'til the very end
When you learn to lose You'll know what it takes to win Wanna go the distance With a hunger that never ends When you want to prove You're the best that's ever been They can knock you down You're on your feet again 'Cause you know what it takes What it takes to win
When you share the dream There's no "I" in team Let the spirit take you higher It's a state of mind No one can define There's no limit to desire
When you learn to lose You'll know what it takes to win Wanna go the distance With a hunger that never ends When you want to prove You're the best that's ever been They can knock you down You're on your feet again 'Cause you know what it takes What it takes to win
Wanna go the distance With a hunger that never ends When you want to prove You're the best that's ever been They can knock you down You're on your feet again 'Cause you know what it takes What it takes to win
Caught up in living Getting through each day When all the tomorrows become faded yesterdays Are you slipping away Lighted by our schedules Rushing here and there Become strangers to each other Miss you everywhere How did we get this way When the loneliness becomes too much to bear Girl, this merry-go-round Tell each other we still care Help me turn down the world tonight Take a quiet moment, somewhere we can unwind Losing touch, we forget to take time To share what's in our hearts Speak what's on our minds In the silence, hear your heart beat next to mine Baby, help me turn down the world tonight So much information streaming at us fast What I really need to know is if We can make it last I wanna keep you close We make commitments Take responsibility Why do we let them come between you and me That's when I miss you most We gotta take this night Throw in our love all the way Before our moment is gone Baby, say it's not too late Help me turn down the world tonight Take a quiet moment, somewhere we can unwind Losing touch, we forget to take time To share what's in our hearts Speak what's on our minds Far beyond those, with your body next to mine Won't you help me turn down the world tonight Turn down the world tonight Help me turn down the world tonight Take a quiet moment, somewhere we can unwind Losing touch, we forget to take time To share what's in our hearts Speak what's on our minds Oh, turn down the world Help me turn down the world tonight In the silence, hear your heart beat next to mine Baby, help me turn down the world tonight
Just a small town girl Livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smoky room Smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill, Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some will win, some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people Living just to find emotion Hiding somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight people
Winter is her again oh Lord Haven't been home in a year or more I hope she holds on a little longer Sent a letter on a long summer day Made of silver not of clay I've been runnin' down this dusty road Would we in the sky keeps on turnin' I don't know where I'll be tomorrow Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I've been trying to make it home Got to make it before too long I can't take this very much longer I'm stranded in the sleet and rain Don't think I'm ever gonna make it home again The mornin' sun is risin' It's kissing the day Would we in the sky keeps on turnin' I don't know where I'll be tomorrow Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
For tommorow
we in the sky keeps on turnin' I don't know where I'll be tomorrow Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin' I don't know I don't know
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin' I don't know where I'll be tomorrow Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin' I don't know I don't know I don't know Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin' don't know where I'll be tomorrow Would we in the sky keeps on turnin' Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
Highway run Into the midnight sun Wheels go round and round You're on my mind Restless hearts Sleep alone tonight Sending all my love Along the wire They say that the road Ain't no place to start a family Right down the line It's been you and me And lovin' a music man Ain't always what it's supposed to be Oh, girl, you stand by me I'm forever yours Faithfully Circus life Under the big top world We all need the clowns To make us smile Through space and time Always another show Wondering where I am Lost without you And being apart Ain't easy on this love affair Two strangers learn to fall in love again I get the joy of rediscovering you Oh, girl, you stand by me I'm forever yours Faithfully Whooa, oh-oh-ooh Whooa, oh-oh-ooh, oh Whooa, oh-oh-oh, oh-whoooooa-oh Faithfully I'm still yours I'm forever yours Ever yours Faithfully
It's been a mystery and still I try to see why something good Can hurt so~ bad~ caught on A one way street~ the taste of Bitter sweet love will survive Somehow some way one love Feeds the fire one heart burns desire I wonder who's crying now Two hearts born to run~~~ Who'll be the lonely one~ I wonder who's crying now So many stormy nights So many wrongs or rights Neither could change their headstrong way~ And in a lover's rage~ They tore another page~~ The fighting is worth the love they save One love feeds the fire One heart burns desire~ I wonder who's crying now Two hearts born to run~~~ Who'll be the lonely one~ I wonder who's crying now Only so many tears you can cry To the heartache is over And now you can say~ your love~~ Will never die~~ ooh~~~~~~~~~~ One love feeds the fire~ One heart burns desire~ I wonder who's crying now Two hearts born to run~~~ Who'll be the lonely one~ I wonder who's crying now~
Lying beside you here in the dark Feeling your heartbeat with mine Softly you wisper you're so sincere How could our love be so blind We sailed on together we drifted apart And here you are by my side
*So now I come to you with open arms Nothing to hide. Believe what I say So here I am with open arms Hoping you see What your love means to me open arms*
Living without you living alone This empty house seems so cold Wanting to hold you wanting you near How much I wanted you home But now that you've come back Turned night into day I need you to stay
*So now I come to you with open arms Nothing to hide. Believe what I say So here I am with open arms Hoping you see What your love means to me open arms*
Those crazy nights, I do remember in my youth I do recall, those were the best times, most of all In the heat with a blue jean girl Burnin' love comes once in a lifetime She found me singing by the rail road track Took me home, we danced by moonlight
Those summer nights are callin', stone in love Can't help myself I'm fallin' stone in love
Old dusty roads, led to the river Runnin' slow She pulled me down, and in clover We'd go 'round In the heat with a blue jean girl Burnin' love comes once in a lifetime Oo the memories never fade away Golden girl, I'll keep you forever.
