Audio: Share a song you can't help but sing along to.
"Only to other people" is a track from The Detroit Cobras latest album Tied & True. It's an excellent representation of the kind of lovesick, victimised woman who played a starring role in a lot of the pop songs from the 50s and 60s. This band seems to have a liking for such songs, not only because they capture a moment, but because the melodies are usually to die for. I can never get enough of this group.
I sing this one in the shower a lot.
Only to Other People
I was told that dreams come true,
and handsome boys fall in love with you.
But it only seems to happen in the movies.
Only in fairy tales.
Only in the books I've read,
and only to other people.
So many times I've heard them say,
"Bide your time, he'll come your way."
But it only seems to happen in the movies.
Only in fairy tales.
Only in the books I've read,
and only to other people.
People.
Only to other people.
My heart and soul belong to you,
of course you couldn't love me to.
'Cause it only seems to happen in the movies.
Only in fairy tales.
Only in the books I've read,
and only to other people.
People.
Only to other people.
The original was performed by The Cookies, a girl group of course. You can get a taste of their sound, including a sample of "Only to other people", at Amazon.
