New Leonard Song?
New Leonard Song?
My girlfriend sent me an audio recording from BBC I player when a trailer for a show called Clique came on, and it sounded exactly like Leonard. The lyrics were something like "No one gets to get this close " and "Fit right in where I was needed most" but I've never heard a Leonard song with these lyrics. The voice just sounds uncannily similar.
Hopefully someone can shed some light. I checked all over the net and cannot find this trailer.

Re: Leonard On Trailer For BBC Show Clique?
Hi Cihan,
I think you are correct- I am sure it is Leonard and part of a new song.
I think the lyrics are...
"No one gets this close
you told me
Fill right in when
I was needed most.
Oh Yeah , to (why?)
Anticipate and cover me."
here is the link to the trailer

(This is a link to the BBC iplayer and I am not sure if it can be accessed outside of the UK.)

Thanks Foxwood!
Very interesting to see that it's a new song, and the music sounds very different to what I'd expect. Hopefully we'll hear more news soon.

Re: New Leonard Song
No matter what I do I can't get the video to work! I wish I could hear this.
Re: New Leonard Song
Hopefully Jarkko can confirm if it is from the R&B recordings, or left over from another session such as You Want It Darker

No one gets to get this close
you told me to fit right in
where I was needed most
two yet to wait

uncommonly
I'm not sure about the last three lines

Re: New Leonard Song
I pushed this song to my WeChat LC channel and one of subscribers finds out that this is a song from a Canadian band called July Talk. The name of this song is Touch. The voice is from Peter Dreimanis, the band lead singer.

You told me to fit right in
Where I was needed most
We had to wait, anticipate and come of age
We had to keep each other in a cage
On the stage, on the stage, on the stage
Don't want to give myself away too much
Touch
There's no good way to say goodbye
We got everything to lose, nothing to hide
Got to give and take and give and take
It's best to save all you crave for the stage
We get so tired and lonely
We all need a human touch
Don't want to give ourselves away too much
Touch
Touch
I want to make some space underneath my skin
Cut me open, I can let you in
Should I let myself be torn in two?
And will you give into that side of you?

Re: New Leonard Song
I think it was wishful thinking on my part. I am sorry for raising everyone's hopes of a new song.
My only defence is that Phillip was fooled too!

Re: New Leonard Song
Thanks for the info.
Interesting lyrics but not Leonard singing it then.
