Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one-track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to jump for joy

Shout

They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale

Overall Meaning

The song "Shout" by Sweetbox feat. Tears for Fears is an anthem for speaking up against injustice and oppression. The chorus encourages listeners to shout and let out their frustrations and grievances, while the verses touch on themes of being taken advantage of and selling oneself out.


The opening lines set the tone for the song, with the repeated "Shout" providing an urgent call to action. The next lines, "Let it all out / These are the things I can do without" suggest that the singer has had enough of something or someone and needs to speak their truth. The repeated "Come on / I'm talking to you" adds to the urgency of the situation, as the singer is directly addressing their audience to join them in speaking out.


The third verse touches on the idea of being taken advantage of, with the line "Those one-track minds / That took you for a working boy." This suggests that someone has been exploited for their hard work and skills, and they are being encouraged to stand up for themselves and not settle for being used. The line "Kiss them goodbye / You shouldn't have to jump for joy" implies that the singer wants the person to leave their exploitative situation behind and find their own joy.


Overall, "Shout" is a powerful song about not staying quiet in the face of oppression and standing up for oneself. It is a call to action for listeners to no longer be silent and to use their voices for change.

Shout shout let it all out
These are the things I can't do without
Come on
I'm talking to you come on

Let me hear you shout it out
Let me tell you all the things that I can't do without
I jump for joy you get me led
So let me shout about
No doubt I found out
What makes the world go round
And by the times the world is foul

We seem to 'cause
The reason why the world is lost
We believe the world we live in peace
This days some say
One track minds would leave the way
Shout it out something for the world to say

*Rep.

They gave you life
In return you gave them live your hell
Cold as ice
Three wishes like a wishing well
If I could tell change your mind
And turn the time
Dark as night fighting
With the shadow lights

Is everything alright?
Can we do it one time?
We'll shout it out
Until the rise of light
I know you know
We shouldn't have to sell our souls
I shout it out
Just to let the world know

*Rep.

In violent times
we shouldn't have to sell your souls
in black and white
they really really ought to know
you shouldn't have to shout

*Rep.2x

Кричи, кричи, выплесни эмоции наружу!
Это то, без чего я не могу обойтись.
Давай же!
Я говорю тебе: «Давай же!»

Дай мне услышать, как ты кричишь,
Дай мне рассказать тебе о том, без чего я не могу!
Я прыгаю от радости, ты ведешь меня,
Так что позволь мне прокричать об этом!
Не сомневайся, я поняла,
Что заставляет мир вращаться,
И к тому времени мир пойдет прахом.

Кажется, мы являемся той причиной,
По которой мир потерян.
Мы верим в этот мир, мы живем в мире
В эти дни кто-то говорит,
Что недалеки люди сойдут с дистанции.
Прокричи что-нибудь, чтобы мир сказал:

Кричи, кричи, выплесни эмоции наружу!
Это то, без чего я не могу обойтись.
Давай же!
Я говорю тебе: «Давай же!»

Они подарили тебе жизнь,
Взамен ты ругаешь их на чём свет стоит,
Холодный, как лед.
Три желания — как пожелание добра.
Если б я могла заставить тебя изменить свое мнение
И повернуть время —
Темный, как ночь, бой
С тенью.

Все в порядке?
Сможем ли мы сделать это одновременно?
Мы будем кричать
До восхода солнца.
Я знаю, что ты знаешь:
Нам не следует продавать свои души!
Я кричу это,
Лишь для того, чтобы позволить миру узнать об этом!

Кричи, кричи, выплесни эмоции наружу!
Это то, без чего я не могу обойтись.
Давай же!
Я говорю тебе: «Давай же!»

В жестокие времена
Нам не следует продавать свои души!
Как черным по белому —
Они действительно должны знать это!
Ты не должна кричать в одиночку!

Кричи, кричи, выплесни эмоции наружу!
Это то, без чего я не могу обойтись.
Давай же!
Я говорю тебе: «Давай же!»

Кричи, кричи, выплесни эмоции наружу!
Это то, без чего я не могу обойтись.
Давай же!
Я говорю тебе: «Давай же!»

Tears for Fears - Shout. Оригинал этой песни, от 80 годов. От Sweetbox, это ремикс. Все равно и оригинал и ремикс, отлично звучит !!!

@RealManYacK

Женский речитатив хорошо звучит. Жаль редко кто такой прием использует.

@Deequee
