Song of the Week

Today I'm actually putting a relatively mainstream song in. wow.... haha
It's "Space They Cannot Touch", sung by Kate Miller-Heidke

How's my luck
But somehow I'm with you
Let's leave now
Let's leave them,
their point of view
My favourite place is me and you

I wake up in the darkest night
Watch you breathe in shadow light
A perfect world lies next to me
And I don't need to sleep to dream

I just hope I am good enough to keep you

Morning sun warms our skin
And distant sounds
The day begins
Soon their world will come calling for us
But this is the space they cannot touch

I just hope I am good enough to keep you



From Wikipedia -

Space They Cannot Touch is a love song that is popular in the repertoire of Brisbane singer and Sony-BMG artist Kate Miller-Heidke. Released independently on her EP Telegram in 2004, it received considerable airplay on the Australian youth radio network Triple J and has become a centrepiece of Miller-Heidke's concerts. In November 2005 it was included in EMI Australia's summer anthology Coastal Chill 6. Posts to Miller-Heidke's website indicate that it has also had some popularity as a wedding song.

Space They Cannot Touch was written by Keir Nuttall, guitarist with Kate Miller-Heidke's touring and recording band Transport.

The song was re-recorded for Kate Miller-Heidke's debut album Little Eve, released in June 2007.



What she can do with her voice is pretty amazing, I remember seeing her perform on TV and they said that she trained as an opera singer. This is my song for this week, I listened to it several times in a row on a long plane flight, and it just seems to be great mood music
