Almost persuaded..
Wasn’t sure this would ever become a song. The chords came early and I loved them for themselves. It never really felt like they were interested in playing second fiddle to lyrics and melody. But once again Corinne surprised me, emerging at last from her lair with a top line so majestic that my chords were obliged to kneel in its presence… -- Andy
"Almost Persuaded" is track 3 of the tenth studio album "Almost Persuaded", released by jazz/pop duo Swing Out Sister, Corinne Drewery and Andy Connell. It is the culmination of " A Moveable Feast", a PledgeMusic project that crowd funded the album with weekly video updates sharing their musical work in progress and was released with critical acclaim in June 2018.

LYRICS:
The world outside my mind
Is sometimes cruel and sometimes kind
I've laughed until I've cried
But who remembers, who decides
Moments and memories
That don't last long
Forever golden air of tenderness
My heart won't let me go
My mind won't let me say
Until the night throughout promises
I was almost persuaded to stay
And someday you may find
Another love, another time
Don't think I didn't try
In spite of all
I tried to hide
One day you'll need someone
But I'll be gone
Forever golden air of tenderness
My heart won't let me go
My mind won't let me say
Until the night throughout promises
I was almost persuaded to stay

Oh, dear Lord, how beautiful. I had to turn it off, because it hit me like a runaway train. Corrine and Andy are just...I dunno. Magic? Perfection? Unearthly? Yeah, let's go with all of that. The fact that they had to crowd fund this masterpiece angered me at first, then, it hit me...How cool that we have a modern way today for such splendid artists to get work produced and by people who love and support them. It's actually rather blessed, when you think about it. Thank you, Corrine and Andy for sharing your irreplaceable talent with all of us these decades past. You've only gotten better. Peace.
If there’s one british band that deserves to write a 007 opening title it must be SOS. “Almost Persuaded” is definitely a 007 track!
Apparently SOS are Big fans of Barry and asked him to produce one of their albums but he declined the offer for whatever reason.
For me SOS album that could be 007 track is Somewhere Deep in The Night
@@dhemi1383 “Touch me now” would be a great choice.
I so second that!❤
Spot on!
I can't tell you how many times I repeat this song..... just so beautiful.
ME TOO LOL !!!!!
Me too!
This song grabs my heart every time!
…… moments and memories, that don’t last long……
I absolutely LOVE this album. It is so so good. I'd loved Break Out back in the day but I have a whole new love for SOS now.
I feel exactly the same.👍🏼
Take a listen to somewhere deep in the night
For years Corinne's voice and Andy's genius compositions have been stella in musical taste and perfection. Making the right move has always been my favourite from that era and this song has trumped that nostalgia and magical mystery. Thank you Swing Out Sister for recording these gems which have been songtracks of my life and perspective of sophistication. God bless you always!
…..the piano work on this song is fantastic….bravo
Andy's magnific and delicate musical vision creates beautiful chromatic lines that are dreams on the divine Corinne's voice.......
The waterfall on the piano is just beautiful.
Had the pleasure of seeing them in concert in South Beach , Florida in '96. They were excellent.
You lucky man..................( I wish they'd perform again )
What a wonderful period that was on Pledgemusic! It was a great experience to wait for your updates and to make small contributions to your album by making comments. I hope we meet again in a bran new album. Cheers! 🙋🏻♂️
Incredibly beautiful!
I have had this SOS album (Almost Persuaded) for a long time and never got round to listening to it until I had a weekend on my own and was exploring music. I stumbled across this song and fell in love. So laid back and easy but also layered and complex. Just stunning. Corinne's voice has changed as she's aged but still sounds great and theres a slight raspiness there which lends itself to the jazz genre. Hoping they continue to make great music. Surely a big comeback is in order, if Everything But The Girl can do it....
EBTG's last album was a huge disappointment, sad to say.
Beautiful. Still making great music. So glad I found this YT channel.
SOS still has it after all these years. Many long runs late at night listening to her, them.......God Bless SOS
For ever swing out sister saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Love lives forever... in the echoes in time... of the ones who love each other.
Swing out Sister, wav the best, so beautiful music, Corinne and Andy, love to many years cool music.😍
I'm back. I was allllmmmmoooossst persuaded...... to stay. (goosebumps, so beautiful)
I lack the words to be able to express the emotions that this extraordinary song transmits to me....something unique , the music....the voice....Thank you for this wonderful moment
Very haunting melody & lyrics. Especially for anyone that's had their dream mate.....and then lost them. Tears come with this song.
...You, probably, make the most relevant comment...It has always struck me in this fashion...My First Love, of decades ago...Absolutely came over me like wind through a wheat field...My singular World...She was perfection...It ended...I went on into Life...As did she...I have been married to a miracle for 52 Years and helped in producing 4 extraordinary children...Yet, I have never forgotten my First Love...Have alway, quietly, carried her in my heart...Her beauty, rhythm, voice, hair, the way she looked at me...She passed from Cancer some years ago...Did not know of it until years after the fact...All I could say was "Thank You for your Gift..."...I do not care how many angels can dance on the head of a pin...It is enough for me to know that they exist...And that they dance...Pax...
Superb. Thank you Corinne ! Thank you SOS !
One of their very best which is amazing to say this far into their careers.
Brought the instrumental album as well which is also brilliant
❤️
Beautiful, masterpiece good Corinne
My favorite
awesome, makes me feel like these days again... Thank you SOS and keep doing.
I’m teary eyed 😢Just Gorgeous!
Magnifique chanson que j'ai découvert il y a quelques années au printemps. Je ne sais pas pourquoi elle me fait penser au sud-ouest de la France. Elle me donne envie de le rejoindre lorsque je l'entends. Merci pour cette découverte, Christophe
Gentle as a storm (to quote). "Wasn't sure this would ever become a song"? I'm mighty glad it did. This is tremendous!
Im back.... and Im on the fourth listen back to back this morning too. I am a writer, and I love turning on SOS and going to town... then youtube will throw some random Bebel Gilberto in there for some reason.... Can't complain there either. That would be a heck of a show btw.
Ascoltata centinaia di volte e non mi stanca mai.
Ci sono due versioni strumentali diverse. Lei è sempre fantastica!
I WIN: many months since my last attempt.... she singing, crooning, im loving it --- open the minimized window and there she is hula hooping again.
Swing out sister is one class act .
I´m learning to play along with this gorgeous song on my ukulele.
What magical music!
Aria fresca e leggera che profuma di primavera...🌻
Gorgeous vibe, thank you 😊
Magnificent! Bravo! !!!!!!❤❤❤
Oh this song !!! Is pure magik !!
My second most scrobbled song of all time from my second most scrobbled album of all time. And funny enough, given the song's emergence, I like the instrumental version almost as much, such a gem that made me rediscover an amazing band.
Traveled on with this song playing..
...Swing Out Sister has made Love to my Hammer, Anvil and Stirrup for decades...Connie is beyond words...and knock out beautiful...This particular song takes Maturity, Life Experience and Generosity to sing...And The Lady does just that..."..."...I am certain of nothing...Except the holiness of the Heart's affections...And the truth of the Imagination..." (Keats)...Pax.
Big SOS fan... never listened to this... wh
at a great song...
Que música e voz deliciosa de se ouvir!✨🌟👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Grandes Andy y Corinne
Masterpiece... jewel!
This song is like a dream clock...very dreamy I play rock r&b blues almost everything but if I had to pick one band as my favorite I'd say swing out sister
Bought there first two albums on vinyl and continue to listen to their great music today.
So Beautiful

Sou completamente apaixonado por você!
Heavenly BEATYFULL
I am thoroughly Enjoying this Album ❤
Fascinante hasta las estrellas...!
I love this song!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Continua linda, bela voz

I swear this song never gets old. Why can’t my Pandora get this into rotation? I get Breakout like every fourth song in a channel based on SOS. I get a great acoustic version of Without You, live songs: Almost Persuaded not to be found.
corinne

CORNNIE YOU MAKE IT HEARD NOT TO FALL IN LOVE, ALMOST IM POSSIBLE ❤ ❤❤❤

Hey, its me again... I like to play a little game with this song..... can I minimize the window and then open it back just in time to see Corinne doing the hula-hoop.
Ill have to make a channel on RockMeAmadeus for this, its my site but if I add the dot youtube will remove it..

Crass maybe ? Do you think you could fall in love
with someone without ever having met them !
とっても素敵です💓
結婚して下さい🙇🏻♂️
Some hula hoops have all the luck
