Through The Barricades - Spandau Ballet - Connie Talbot (Cover)

Hi guys, I hope you enjoy this cover of one of my favourite Spandau Ballet songs, "Through The Barricades". I think this song is beautiful melodically and lyrically, I'm really enjoying just having some fun creating these videos for you. I'm excited to be writing and releasing more of my original songs soon. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this one. I have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with Tony Hadley a few times over the years, and he is wonderful both as a person and as a musician, so it's been fun to sing this one. Thanks for taking the time to be with me on here, I'll see you soon :) Follow Here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.... Facebook: https://www.facebook.c... X (Twitter): https://x.com/ConnieTa...

Lyrics: Mother doesn't know where love has gone, She says it must be youth, that keeps us feeling strong I see it in her face that's turned to ice, And when she smiles, she shows the lines of sacrifice And now I know what they're saying as the sun begins to fade We made our love on waste land, Through the barricades Father made my history, He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free He taught me what to say in school I learned it off by heart, but now that's torn in two And now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade We made our love on waste land, Through the barricades Born on different sides of life But we feel the same and feel all of this strife So come to me when I'm asleep And we'll cross the lines and dance upon the street And now I know what they're saying As the drums begin to fade We made our love on waste land Through the barricades Oh turn around and I'll be there There's a scar right through my heart but I'll bare it again I thought we were the human race, but we were just another borderline case And the stars reach down and tell us There's always one escape Oh, I don't know where love has gone And in this troubled land, desperation keeps us strong Friday's child is full of soul With nothing left to lose, there's everything to go And now I know what they're saying It's a terrible beauty we've made We made our love on waste land Through the barricades Now I know what they're saying As our hearts go to their grave We made our love on waste land, Through the barricades.
