Now Or Never
Friction Flava D & Charlotte Haining Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or are you always living in the past
We all know our time is borrowed
So let′s make the moment last
Now's the time to turn to each other
Focus on the love that we have
Hold on to your sisters and brothers
'Cause it's now or never
Nothing is bringing us down
We′ll stay here forever
Nothing can turn it around
Right here in the low light
We′ll dance till the sunlight
'Cause it′s now or never
Nothing is bringing us down
Now's the timе to turn to each other
Focus on the lovе that we have
Hold on to your sisters and brothers
So let′s make the moment last
Can you tell me where we're going
Does it even matter in the end
We don′t have to talk 'cause we both know it
We're making the moment last
Now′s the time to turn to each other
Focus on the love that we have
Hold on to your sisters and brothers
And let′s make the moment last
'Cause it′s now or never
Nothing is bringing us down
We'll stay here forever
Nothing can turn it around
Right here in the low light
We′ll dance till the sunlight
'Cause it′s now or never
Nothing is bringing us down

Charlotte Haining never fails to deliver incredible vocals.

Yes! So beautiful!
@cun7us
@Unconventional Wisdom agreed. They sound screechy on the drop like it doesn't suit her natural voice. The intro and breakdown is ok though.
@anarchicasylum3310
@@cun7us Be much better as an instrumental banger! The vocal would be better suited to a liquid track. The vocal is good but just doesn't fit right for me.
@ayoungtricknamedjim5498
If I might ask, what is it about her voice that impresses you?
