"Sing" - Travis (2001)

Scottish band Travis's main songwriter Fran Healy came up with the song as he watched a "swingbeat" video on MTV, leading him to write a basic melody called "Swing" about children in a swing set. As he performed with the rest of the band, he changed the song to "Sing". 


Baby, you've been going so crazy 
Lately, nothing seems to be going right 
Solo, why do you have to get so low 
You're so... 
You've been waiting in the sun too long 

But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing 
For the love you bring won't mean a thing 
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing 

Colder, crying on your shoulder 
Hold her, and tell her everything's gonna be fine 
Surely, you've been going too early 
Hurry, cause no one's gonna be stopped 

But if you sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, sing 
For the love you bring won't mean a thing 
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing 

Baby, there's something going on today 
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing, 
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
