So,
I was exploring some YouTube videos (I was stuck in The Ellen DeGeneres channel
for hours) when a familiar tune just got inside my head. I could rarely hear
that song being played on the radio but the said tune got inside my head all of
a sudden.
It
was a track from STEPS, titled “One for Sorrow”. I could hardly remember the
last time I heard that song, so, hearing it again made a lot of childhood
memory flashbacks, dramatically. I used to remember singing and dancing along
while watching the video on MTV (back when MTV was “really” MTV), only to find
out that the lyrics were really deep and emotional, despite of the upbeat tempo
and the fact that it’s a danceable track. I was so innocent back then (of
course, we’ve been innocent once), and I had no idea that they’re singing about
pangs of heartbreaks.
The
chorus of the song goes like:
“Now
I know you’re someone else right now,
Loving someone
else no doubt.
Well, I’m One For
Sorrow
Ain’t it too, too
bad.
Are you breaking
someone else’s heart
Coz you’re taking my love where you are.
Well, I’m One For Sorrow
Ain’t it too, too bad about us?”
Funny
how these words described exactly how I felt once, few years back.
Written
by Mark Topham, Karl Twigg, and Lance Ellington, Claire (the female lead vocal of STEPS) performs lead vocals
of all of the verses, before the entire band join for the chorus. Check out the video
below and taste the sweet pop tunes of STEPS, once again.
