Listening to:
Lost Without You – Delta Goodrem
So, I’ve been catching up with my diverse collection of sappy music recently, when I heard those old Delta Goodrem songs again. Yeah, remember her? Yet another Australian girl who used to be in Neighbours? Well, if you live in the US, probably not so much, but no matter.
So, these lyrics were killing me. Listen to this stuff.
All I know is I’m lost without you
I’m not gonna lie
How my going to be strong without you?
I need you by my side
If we ever say we’ll never be together
and we ended with goodbye
don’t know what I’d do
I’m lost without you
Now, keep in mind that this was from her Australian debut, which she recorded at age 16 or something. I mean, it’s not that I don’t believe in young love, but do we really need to sound so pathetic and desperate before we even reach the age of majority? But I suppose only so many people can cover I Want Candy before it gets old.
Delta Goodrem’s US debut album, which will be a hybrid of her two Australian and European releases and includes Lost Without You, hits shelves October 25th at a record store near you.
