hello all: i am a newbie to OtR and have been listening to Films For Radio and in the song World Can Wait, I hear...

haven't I done enough
haven't I done far too much


The lyrics section on the website says:
haven't we done enough
haven't we done far too much

Is that an error or am are my ears just messed up?

-Thanks.

i don't think it's that uncommon for lyrics to change slightly from their "published" (which is probably a "legal" act) and "performance" versions. i notice this quite a bit by many artists. i would guess for publishing rights/copyright/legal issues that they remain in writing one way even though the artist(s) may change them slightly during peformances, both live and/or recorded.

fwiw, i think you are hearing it correctly. that's what i hear too.

but, whatever happened to that thread about "karin's craptacular diction", the girl has been know to slur a word or two in her performances. wink.gif

who said "god created vowels just so karin bergquist could sing them"?

Jeffrey Overstreet. He's said quite a few quotable things 'bout our little band.
