No one can sing better than paula did. I watched some covers for this song, but I always love how paula did. I got shiver everytime listening to her singing this song ❤ god bless you paula
My god her voice is just as gorgeous as it was all those years ago when this amazing talent graced us with this piece of perfection. Pre-auto tune. Absolutely brilliant!!
You can tell pretty easily that they did almost *nothing* to her voice in the studio back in the day. She sounds fantastic. I'd say "She sounds just like her album", but the truth is, this is an all to rare artist where *her album sounds just like her*
@@RadioactiveSince1990x WWII began in '39. We entered it in '41. It ended in '45. Why would you call it the war of '44? You don't WEAR shrapnel in your skin --- you wear clothes. If someone knifes you, you don't say "I'm wearing a knife". Someone should have helped her with lyric editing.
Paula, I watch the Secret World Tour a lot, and this is my opportunity to thank you for the pure beauty of your performance. I feel spiritually cleansed every time.
Such a powerful song with amazing lyrics and great storytelling. She wrote the song for her grandparents, they must have been proud. Truly one of the greatest songs of the 90s.
Sorry, but the melody is utterly boring and bland. I for one hated this song the first time I heard it and I've hated it ever since. The "Happy Birthday" song sounds like a symphonic masterpiece by comparison. I'd prefer to simply read the wonderful text, but let's ban the melody.
I was just thinking that. Where are the artists with her kind of purity and integrity and raw passion and pain? They are so rare and/or obscure. None are mainstream anymore.
I wish there's a scientist who can built a time machine. I will go back to 80's and 90's and i will a give true love and respect to my family who past away. I really miss you grandma and grandpa :.(
Intention can affect probabilities that have not yet "collapsed" (in terms of probability waves) by a consciousness. Extrapolating upon that, and based on evidence, I hypothesize it may _appear_ that you can send your love through time, within the aforementioned parameters. A practical application for your case, may be to send an intention "back" through time to help a loved one heal from an illness or emotional pain. Unfortunately, for this to work, no one living can know about the _outcome_ of the targeted issue, since that would constitute a collapse of the probability wave. Violating causality seems to be a universal "no-no", sorry. For instance, if your grandpa died of cancer, you couldn't change the fact he had cancer...but some _unknown_ factor, like, an undetermined tumor growth rate during the last stage, unmeasured pain, etc. could be affected by your intention. Love is the only time machine we have at this point. It extends beyond time and space. Best Regards.
oh goodness, she has aged into her beauty so wonderfully, how I have been moved by her songs over the years...we are are all getting older yes, but the heart is still ALL there. What a wonderfu comfort to hear her year after year....
So open up your morning light And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive Then see the peace in every eye She had two babies, one was six months, one was three In the war of '44 Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging When she thought it was God calling her Oh, would her son grow to know his father? I don't want to wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't want to wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be sorry? He showed up all wet on the rainy front step Wearing shrapnel in his skin And the war he saw lives inside him still It's so hard to be gentle and warm The years pass by, and now, he has granddaughters I don't want to wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't want to wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be... Oh, so you look at me from across the room You're wearing your anguish again Believe me, I know the feeling It sucks you into the jaws of anger Oh, so breathe a little more deeply All we have is this very moment And I don't want to do what his father, and his father, and his father did I want to be here now So open up your morning light And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive Then see the peace in every eye I don't want to wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't want to wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be... I don't want to wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't want to wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be sorry? So open up your morning light And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive Then see the love in every eye
Incredible! This song brings back so many memories. She's such moving singer with a great voice and so much presence and beauty...inside and out. Thanks you so much for sharing this!!
I first saw her on the Peter Gabriel Secret World dvd. Then searched for Paula Cole. Her voice is ...... compelling. Awesome. Paula is a keeper! She touches the soul. The voice! Just as clare00003 posted. The voice.
Great song & a wonderful live performance. No lip sink BS going on here like other singers are doing. Paula Cole is a truly gifted artist that sings with all her heart & soul.
I am a Viet Nam veteran, the son of a WW2 veteran and the father of an Iraqi war veteran. This resonates with me. My mother saved my father. My wife saved me. I am waiting for the next generation.
Why this great singer is not in top of billboard? what a strong and soft voice at same time, pure artist. thanks Paula. I also don´t want to wait for coming song
She still seems to have it. A few interesting bits in the song, but generally still sounds great. I didn't realize Paula Cole had a music video on this song. I only knew of it from "Dawson's Creek".
You've seen her before and you've seen her now...it's the same Paula...the girl who have sung this song from the time you heard it right....love and prayers for Paula always....
How is it that many mainstream artists JUST SO HAPPEN to be able to SING PLUS PLAY AN INSTRUMENT? Singing is hard enough, but then learning to play an instrument and then learning to do both, and then learning to do both at the same time????
+MIKECNW I don't think it's a stupid question. Why do you? Connie Talbot started as being interested in singing only, now somehow she can play the guitar AND play the piano in such a short period of time? Really? Why?
I'm fascinated by this also, especially drummers, but that is what makes some muscians special. Paula Cole does it all because she is a musical genius!
Great song from back when. FYI, i feel this song was designed to be off key. Thats what makes it so beautiful. Which is what a true artist does. Thank you Paula
Yo im black n I jus bust out singing this song recently n y errbody started singing along so yes black people love dawson creek too damn shes really killing this song live on dis video
Sarah Mclachlan, Paula Cole, Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morisette, Shawn Colwin, Tori Amos..... just look how the 90's has produced many talented female musician
90's and very early 2000's have the best pop songs ever.
True right bud so mis the 90 and late 80s😢😟✊
Me and my brother that passed away loved singing this song. I dedicate this to my brother Darien 🥰
No one can sing better than paula did. I watched some covers for this song, but I always love how paula did. I got shiver everytime listening to her singing this song ❤ god bless you paula

Yes. Just angelic.
What's the war of '44? And why would someone wear shrapnels in their skin?
@@HomeAtLast501 WW2, and its a poetic way of describing someone injured from war.
@@RadioactiveSince1990x WWII began in '39. We entered it in '41. It ended in '45. Why would you call it the war of '44?
You don't WEAR shrapnel in your skin --- you wear clothes. If someone knifes you, you don't say "I'm wearing a knife".
Someone should have helped her with lyric editing.
This song brings back so many good memories! Aah, the good ol' days

Imagine being able to write and sing this absolutely beautiful song 👏
Superb Paula
So open up your morning light
And say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive
Then see the peace in every eye
She had two babies, one was six months, one was three
In the war of '44
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging
When she thought it was God calling her
Oh, would her son grow to know his father?
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?
He showed up all wet on the rainy front step
Wearing shrapnel in his skin
And the war he saw lives inside him still
It's so hard to be gentle and warm
The years pass by, and now, he has granddaughters
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be...
Oh, so you look at me from across the room
You're wearing your anguish again
Believe me, I know the feeling
It sucks you into the jaws of anger
Oh, so breathe a little more deeply
All we have is this very moment
And I don't want to do what his father, and his father, and his father did
I want to be here now
So open up your morning light
And say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive
Then see the peace in every eye
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be...
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?
So open up your morning light
And say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive
Then see the love in every eye
I remember being in USA in 98, she opened for Matchbox 20...she was aweosme and have loved her music every since!!!

Great song & a wonderful live performance. No lip sink BS going on here like other singers are doing. Paula Cole is a truly gifted artist that sings with all her heart & soul.
This song is very romantic, and can make you feel that you have someone that you haven't.
Her voice is still alive !!;)
She is still amazing.
We sang this classic in our A Capella Group. Just a completely wonderful track.
I needed to hear these lyrics at this moment in my life.
wow, she still sings beautifully and she still sounds great, i wish singers now can sing as genuinely as her...
i miss the old days 😭😭😭
I am a veteran, the son of a WWII post-traumatic veteran and the father of a post-traumatic veteran. This song resonates in me.
Her voice hasn't changed!! 😲
I love this song sooo much!!!
I am a Viet Nam veteran, the son of a WW2 veteran and the father of an Iraqi war veteran. This resonates with me. My mother saved my father. My wife saved me. I am waiting for the next generation.

Wow! What a talent !
How is it that many mainstream artists JUST SO HAPPEN to be able to SING PLUS PLAY AN INSTRUMENT? Singing is hard enough, but then learning to play an instrument and then learning to do both, and then learning to do both at the same time????
+MikeSPx24bj9 Stupid question.
+MIKECNW I don't think it's a stupid question. Why do you? Connie Talbot started as being interested in singing only, now somehow she can play the guitar AND play the piano in such a short period of time? Really? Why?
MikeSPx24bj9 Maybe she was doing that all along and just never played those on stage till later on.
I'm fascinated by this also, especially drummers, but that is what makes some muscians special. Paula Cole does it all because she is a musical genius!
It's called musical talent..........
gorgeous❤
YEAH! YOU GO, PAULA! INCREDIBLE VOICE!
Excellent Paula ! Awesome
Great song from back when. FYI, i feel this song was designed to be off key. Thats what makes it so beautiful. Which is what a true artist does. Thank you Paula
