The combination of a great attitude and undeniable talent helped launch Aussie Rock Chick Marie Wilson’s first single ‘Next Time’ to great success. ‘Next Time’ was one of Australia’s most played songs on Australian radio in 1998, blitzing the Top 40 charts. It earned Marie two ARIA nominations (Best Australia Debut Talent and Best New Artist) and the accolade of being chosen as Best New Australian Artist on commercial radio at the 1998 Radio Industry Awards.
Marie has released 5 albums (Real Life - 1998, Studio Sessions - 2001, Heartbreak - 2005, Studio Sessions 2 - 2012, Live in Melbourne, 2012) and is currently in the final stages of recording her 6th album (Release date, 2013). Reunited with her A-Team, producer Joe Hardy (ZZ Top, Tom Cochrane) and drummer Greg Morrow (Dixie Chicks, Sheryl Crow), this album is sure to be an epic quest from the Aussie rock chick who served her apprenticeship in the pubs and clubs of Australia.
She is scheduled to tour extensively through 2013 and 2014. Her goal is to re-connect with loyal fans and gain new fans through her live touring and Gigs4Good project.
Wilson’s voice is her strongest instrument; this coupled with her world class songwriting and hard hitting acoustic guitar playing, has fast earned her the reputation as an enduring talent.
Wilson throws together a compelling mix of covers and originals resulting in an awesome live performance, every time she takes the stage. These live performances even give punters the opportunity to vote for the songlist via Facebook, in real time.
Marie has written with Bryan Adams, Mark Hudson (Aerosmith) and has had one of her songs recorded by Leann Rimes. It was at a prestigious songwriting workshop, organised by music patron Miles Copeland at his 13th Century French Castle where Marie connected with Jim Vallance (Bryan Adams) and Mark Hudson (Aerosmith) to pen her hit single ‘Next Time’, the first of three songs the trio would write for her debut album ‘Real Life’.
Impossible
Marie Wilson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another lonely night and I'm still feeling like
There's something deep inside I can't explain
We always look for love and keep on dreaming of
A feeling that's forever and a day, after day
Everybody's looking for a way, anyway
And I don't wanna hear
It's impossible
Don't say it doesn't matter
Impossible
It's hard sometimes to know just what to do
But it's true
Things are never what they seem
Cause nothing is impossible to me
And if your heart should break
It's more than I could take
I promise I won't throw it all away
And when the road gets rough and you feel you've had enough
We'll cherish every moment everyday, after day
Everbody's looking for a way, anyway
And I don't wanna hear
It's impossible
Don't say it doesn't matter
Impossible
It's hard sometimes to know just what to do
But it's true
Things are never what they seem
Cause nothing is impossible to me
Some people gonna try to own ya
They'll push and hope that you fall
And everybody thinks they know you
But they don't know you at all
We always look for love, and keep on dreaming of
A feeling that's forever, and forever, and forever
It's impossible
Don't say it doesn't matter
Impossible
It's hard sometimes to know just what to do
But it's true
Things are never what they seem
Cause nothing is impossible to me
Marie Wilson’s song “Impossible” touches on the universal themes of loneliness, perseverance and the importance of believing in oneself. She describes the insecurities and doubts that can fill a person’s mind, especially during lonely times. There is a desire to connect with another person, to have a deep love and commitment, but there is also a fear that this kind of love is impossible to attain. Despite this fear, the singer encourages listeners to keep hoping and dreaming, to trust oneself and not let others’ opinions or ownership claims get in the way of finding true love.
The chorus repeats the word “impossible,” but it is clear that the singer is rejecting this idea. She says that things are “never what they seem” and that “nothing is impossible” to her. The lyrics present a clear message: don’t give up or be discouraged—it’s hard to know what to do, but anything can be achieved with persistence and self-belief. Overall, “Impossible” is an uplifting song, with catchy hooks and an empowering message.
