Welcome back to #MusicMonday! Can you believe it’s the fourth week I’ve done this feature already and I’m loving it?! It’s not about books, but about music, and I’m looking forward to presenting you with a taste of my playlist. It’s the brainchild of Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek, but my inspiration comes from the lovely Claire from A Knight’s Reads. Every Monday, I’ll be choosing a song to share with you and I can’t wait! The Spotify playlist is here and it will be updated as I go along.

On Thursday, I went to see Take That! At the time of writing, I haven’t been yet but I am really excited! So here’s a Take That classic so that you can all sing along with me. (I did toy with choosing others, but you can’t really beat this one.)

Take That: Back For Good

I guess now it’s time for me to give up
I feel it’s time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got your lipstick mark still on your coffee cup
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn’t mean it
I just want you back for good
(Want you back, want you back, want you back for good)
Whenever I’m wrong just tell me the song and I’ll sing it
You’ll be right and understood
(Want you back, want you back, want you back for good)
I want you back for good

Unaware but underlined I figured out this story (No, no)
It wasn’t good (No, no)
But in the corner of my mind (corner of my mind)
I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can’t you find
(Can’t you find)
A little room inside for me

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn’t mean it
I just want you back for good
(Want you back, want you back, want you back for good)
See I want you back for good
Whenever I’m wrong just tell me the song and I’ll sing it
You’ll be right and understood
(Want you back, want you back, want you back for good)
I want you back for good

And we’ll be together, this time is forever
We’ll be fighting and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn’t mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I’m wrong just tell me the song and I’ll sing it
You’ll be right and understood

I guess now it’s time, that you came back for good.
