I'm not going to act like I don't illegally download from time to time, but for artists I truly like I will buy their albums physically and in Delta's case both physically and digitally. I don't have any hesitation in doing so.

I will be honest: absolutely gutted. Not the end of the countdown I was hoping for. Oh well, let us hope the era picks up. Heared that preview like a week ago. I just feel like this whole era is totally distant from Delta herself. I hope I'm wrong, I hope it's not. The song still sounds brilliant.

The song reminded me of the balloon part in this video. I watched this ad on TV SO much a couple of years ago that now it's ingrained in my memory.

I can't even pick up the lyrics to the new bit of the snippet.

so get up, stand up
what you waiting for
let's go, jump in
we've got to live like to......(don't know what she says here)
we've got a love like no one else


I thought it was:

So get up, stare up.
What you waiting for
Let's go, jump in
We gotta live like
Give in to begin
We gotta love like no one else..
Now I'm with you .... (x3)
Siiting on top, sitting on top of the world

idk ... lol

I like the song from the snipit, not what I would have expected from Delta, but that is the thing as a successful artist you apparently have to re-invent yourself with each Album to stay on top.. I think it is like an Anthem too, maybe for the Australian Olympic team, who knows anyway not long to wait now till we can get a copy, I prefer physical copy as you have the writers producer ect, you can look it up on ITunes but I prefer to have all that info at hand

I can't even pick up the lyrics to the new bit of the snippet. She needs to sing more clearly sometimes.


LMFAO the first few times I heard it, I was like, "What is this jibberish?"

LOL, I was listening to it over and over and my friend, who's from Texas btw, says, "Is she singing in Australian or something?"

I have always said in the past that Delta needs more work on her breathing techiques and pronounciation. Also, most songs are jibberish the first time you hear them until you know the words... unless the music and singing is very, very clear

Kind Regards,

Aussiemusiclover

I don't she has much breathing technique issues. She does have minor enunciation issues but I find them really endearing, also some of them are really subtle accent affectations.


She hasn't been taught to breathe properly when she sings. If you listen to alot of her music, she will take a breath mid word, which doesn't sound nice. Delta should be able to take a quick breath where you would see the comma or fullstop, not break a word in two for a breath. If you are breathing properly during a song, you should barely be able to hear the breathing... if at all.

Kind Regards,

Aussiemusiclover

Only difference I'm getting. Give in to begin doesn't make sense if that's the lyrics...

I just realised the line "we've got a love like no one else" That makes sense but I would never have gotten that! Really annoys me sometimes haha.

It's probably wrong, but that's what it sounds like.

It's amazing how many different lyrics people are getting....they could all work. I'm just trying to find the ones that make sense lyrically.

No one but you (Im leaning towards Now I'm with you x 3)
Now I'm with you

This video showed up in my Delta Google Alert: http://video.au.msn....em-test/xsqy80g From the thumbnail, it looked like a new interview with her talking about The Voice and possibly more. But the link is now inactive for some reason.

I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH ALREADY :)
I can't believe I completely forgot about the countdown ending this morning haha. What kind of fan am I?
Still, I was stuck in class all morning and I didn't have earphones so I just played it really quietly and put my ear right next to the speakers on my netbook lol.
I got my friend to listen to it too and she pointed out that Delta makes a "sh" sound instead of an "s" in the song, making the title sound like something else...
I've noticed she did that when singing live at the Believe Again tour as well. Does anyone know why - is it like a technical, musical thing or just a Delta thing?
Also, the first time I heard it I thought she said "Let's go jogging" instead of "join in" and now I can't get it out of my head hahaha.
Can't wait to hear the whole thing! :D

I like the song, can't wait to hear the rest of it and see the video!!

The song isn't getting very good reception from people who aren't on this forum. They think that it just sounds like the same Delta from 5 years ago, and that sound is pretty irrelevant nowadays. But we'll see how it goes.

Everywhere is different. I'm hearing good feedback from people who aren't on this forum.

I could not disagree more with these 'outsiders' I think this sound is very relevant today and 1000 times better than the delta we heard 5 years ago. This is so fresh, and exciting and real! I for one am loving it to bits!


So let me FALL

I WON'T break

I'll take my HEART to my grave

I will BREATHE under the water

You've FORSAKEN the daughter here

But I wont GIVE UP on you

No I won't give up on ME
