Young Blood Lyrics

I saw her standin' on the corner
A yellow ribbon in her hair
I couldn't stop myself from shoutin:
Look a-there! Look a-there!
Look a-there! Look a-there!

Young Blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind

I took one look and I was fractured
I tried to walk but I was lame
I tried to talk but I just stuttered:
What's your name? What's your name?
What's your name? What's your name?

Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind

What crazy stuff! She looked so tough
I had to follow her all the way home
Then things went bad; I met her dad
He said, "You'd better leave my daughter alone"

I couldn't sleep a wink for tryin'
I saw the rising of the sun
And all night my heart was cryin':
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one, you're the one!

Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind

Young blood, young blood, young blood
I can't get you out of my mind

Young Blood

This song is written by the legendary songwriting team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, and was released as the B-Side of The Coasters' hit "Searchin'." The Coasters were a spin-off from an earlier group The Robins, with the members Carl Gardner and Bobby Nunn. To this duo, they added Billy Guy and Leon Hughes and became The Coasters. The group had one final re-arrangement a few years later to reach the classic line-up of Carl Gardner, Billy Guy, Cornell Gunter, and Will "Dub" Jones. Their manager was none other than Lester Sill, Leiber and Stoller's longtime mentor.

Jerry Leiber tells the story of how "Young Blood" was written, in the book Hound Dog: The Leiber & Stoller Autobiography . He was on his way to dinner with the family of Atlantic Records executive Jerry Wexler, when Jerry gave him a challenge. Wexler sprung the title "Young Blood" on Leiber while they were driving to Wexler's home, and asked him if he could write lyrics to go with it. Leiber asked "How far are we from your house?" and when Wexler told him it was fifteen minutes, Leiber responded "I'll have the lyrics finished before we get there." And he did!

The Beatles played this at their audition for Decca Records in 1962. Their version can be found on the album The Beatles Live At The BBC.

Young Blood Lyrics

The days
Are ghosts that pass right through us
In my eyes
You’re like an evergreen
Untouched
By the hours that fly around us
My love
Is that how you see me?

Remember when
Remember when we were the diamonds in the coal
Lovers know
There’s no age upon your soul

It’s all okay, you give me Young Blood
It’s coursing through my veins, it’s real love
Here inside my heart it’s crystallised
Like it’s framed in time and never tainted

Yeah, it’s alright, you give me young blood
Before the world I may be old enough
There’ll be a day to take the best of us
But till then we have young blood

Somehow
I never saw it coming
I’m caught
And it has set me free

Remember when
Remember when we used to talk of growing old
Lovers know
There’s no age upon your soul

Yeah, it’s okay, you give me young blood
It’s coursing through my veins, it’s real love
Here inside my heart it’s crystallised
Like it’s framed in time and never tainted

Yeah, it’s alright, you give me young blood
Before the world I may be old enough
There’ll be a day to take the best of us
But till then we have young blood

Oh

On and on you give me young blood
It’s coursing through my veins, it’s real love
And here inside my heart it’s crystallised
Just like it’s framed in time and never tainted

Yeah, it’s alright, you give me young blood
Before the world I may be old enough
There’ll be a day to take the best of us

But till then we have young blood

Young Blood

The first single from Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Wanderlust album was released as a free gift for fans in April 2013, before being officially released on November 21, 2013. The song is a life-affirming testament to true love, accompanied by singer-songwriter Ed Harcourt's piano.

Wanderlust was recorded in a London studio over a fortnight with a group of musicians and friends.
"The album is about roaming and your sense of where you come from, and how you take home with you but you also have this desire to get out there and see the world," said Ellis-Bextor. "I found making this album really empowering. I felt like after ten years of making records, this is like the biggest present to myself."

The album was co-written, produced and arranged by Ed Harcourt. "He's a family friend," Ellis-Bextor told The Sunday Telegraph. "I've known him for quite a while. And quite early on, we were going for this Eastern sound, quite theatrical, even folky in places. No suggestion, from Bulgarian choirs on up, was too bonkers to be considered."

Noted music video director Sophie Muller (Annie Lennox, No Doubt, Beyonce) shot the clip of Ellis-Bextor singing on a pier.
