Take That – Patience

• 0
  General Comment:I used to love this song until I ended up in the exact same situation. Being the patient one sucks - listen to 'Baby's in Black' by the Beatles which tells the other side of the story. I was patient for six months and decided to give him a kick up the backside and went out with someone else. It soon shocked him out of it. After experiencing this scenario it makes the lyrics seem a bit too self-pitying and selfish.

  General Comment:this song just popped up in my mind. that was the first thing in my mind when i woke up today. i haven't heard this song since oct. 2007. Just believe in your thoughts and the universe's energy/power will do the rest for you. I think some how waking up with this song is a feedback from those powers. With patience, you'll obtain glory. Just have a little patience....

  General Comment:"My heart is numb has no feeling
  So while I’m still healing just try and have little patience"
  It needs time to erase something in mind...
  This song made me think of another song "Happiness"
  ....
  "But the best my heart can do
  Is to love again, I don't know when
  Still it's worth all I fear, the heartaches and the tears"
  ....

  General Comment:This song is amazing
  take that are cheesy but I like this song (the only one)
  I can relate, cos it can be hard coming out of one and feeling so betrayed

  General Comment:"I heard Take That talking about the meaning of this song, and they said that it's about a guy coming out of a relationship and having someone else interested in him. Even though he wants to move on and be with this girl, he's hurting from what he's been through and he's asking for a bit of time to get his head sorted out."
  
  Omg this is freaky coz these lyrics fit perfectly with what a guy is telling me at the moment. I actually sat down and listened to the lyrics ansd was creeped out by how much this song matched his feelings

  General Comment:I agree with ireneXY, lovely song, vocals done really well. The real vocal genius can be realised only when you try singing it yourself. Ouch.....my throat.

  I think this is so refreshing. Too many people (including me) jump from relationship to relationship, scared of missing chances if they wait too long. I could have done with singing this song when my last relationship broke up to the guy I'm seeing right now!

  General Comment:i started by hating this song, cause it seemed just like another boy band story... but after losing a guy i thought i was in love with, all these guys started popping out of nowhere, asking me if i wanted them in my life. and none of them was patient :P but now i'm fine, so i listen to it to remember the bad days :)

  General Comment:This song is about just taking time to think about things and obviously having patience. I heard this song live and it is fucking amazing. It sounds identical to the recorded song. This song is definitly one of the better performed songs out there

  General Comment:I love this song. I love the idea of "Patience" and how the song could be used to describe being patient with a lover, a friend, yourself, in fact the whole god damn world.
  Well done Take That (especially Gary Barlow)
  And the vocals wow ... what a range from Gary. Have you ever tried to sing along to it I obviously don't have Garys talents because I can belt out most of the song then get all squeaky at "Cause I need time".
  Its embarassing how squeaky I get thank god noone is listening !
