East 17 - Stay Another Day (Official Music Video)


Background and release
"Stay Another Day" was the third single from East 17's second album Steam, following up "Around The World" and the album's title track. It was their first ballad, written by the band's lead songwriter Tony Mortimer and is about his brother Ollie,[1] who committed suicide. Mortimer was aided in the composition by his co-manager Rob Kean and songwriter Dominic Hawken, who had once been Boy George's keyboard player.[2] Christmas bells were included towards the end of the song to appeal to the lucrative Christmas singles market. The most familiar arrangement is unusual among pop records in that it uses almost no drums, apart from some timpani during the introduction and towards the end of the track.

自殺したお兄ちゃんを思ってもうちょっと生きてという歌なんですね。

1994年のクリスマスにヒットしたんですね　Ukチャート1位
この曲をきいてクリスマスを一緒に迎えられなかったいろんな人のことを思ってのことなのでしょうね。

Stay Another Day
East 17
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think
I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day

Oh don't leave me alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
Won't you stay another day
Don't you know

We've come too far now
Just to go
And try to throw it all away
Thought I heard you say
You love me
That your love was gonna be here to stay
I've only just begun
To know you
All I can say is
Won't you stay just one more day
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think
I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day
Oh don't leave me alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
Won't you stay another day
I touch your face while you are sleeping
And hold…
