Whitney Houston, Never Give Up, audio video e testo

Che tristezza e nostalgia sentire la voce di Whitney Houston in un nuovo brano. Fa tornare alla mente le mille emozioni che avrebbe potuto regalarci e che, purtroppo, non potremo mai sentire.

Il pezzo in questione è “Never Give Up“, inedito prodotto da Jermaine Dupri e Bryan-Michael Cox, inserito nel Greatest Hits “I Will always Love You- The best of Whitney Houston” (qui la tracklist)

La raccolta uscirà nei negozi il prossimo 13 novembre 2012 e all’interno troveremo anche la versione “I look to you” con la voce di R. Kelly come cantata al funerale della cantante, celebrati lo scorso 18 febbraio.

Never Give Up

Till you get it right, tell em you will never quit
tell em you will never quit until they day you get it right,
till you get it right, hold your hand to the sky
look em right in the eye, tell em you will never quit
until the day you get it right
till you get it right
tell em you will never quit, until the day you get it right
till you get it right, hold your hand to the sky
look em right in the eye, tell em you will never quit
until the day you get it right

Single mother, two jobs, workin her fingers to the bone
putting her daughters mouth before her own
she’s gotta do it, but she’s still feeling
like there’s something deep inside that she can’t leave behind
she won’t let go of it, no matter how many times
she hears it over with, it’s all fixed in her mind
that it’s gonna get better and she won’t ever
hang her head again, break a sweat again, never again

Chorus:
Never never give up, never never give up,
no matter how many times, somebody tells you it ain’t working
Never never give up, never never give up,
hold your head tot he sky, look them right in the eyes
tell you will never quit until the day you get it right
Never never give up, never never give up,
even though some days you’ll have to cry,
shake it off and know that everything will be alright
as long as you never never give up, never never give up.

College student, paying her own way,
working the club at night
look what she go through, to stay in law school
so maybe one day, she can make her way in a man’s world
and never be called just another girl
it ain’t nothing like a dream you can’t see
even when the people round you don’t believe
but in the twelfth round, when you’re against the ropes,
here comes your last minute miracle,
you’ve got to know to

Chorus:
Never never give up, never never give up,
no matter how many times, somebody tells you it ain’t working
Never never give up, never never give up,
hold your head to the sky, look them right in the eyes
tell you will never quit until the day you get it right
Never never give up, never never give up,
even though some days you’ll have to cry,
shake it off and know that everything will be alright
as long as you never never give up, never never give up.

The sky is the limit, for whatever you want to do
don’t let anyone tell you, it ain’t possible
no matter how low you feel, keep going higher, higher
see I’ve been holding on, to my dreams too long
to watch it get away from me,
this hand is mine to win, and I promise you that
I’ll never never give up

[2 x Chorus:]
