Belinda Carlisle - Whatever It Takes (Runaway Horses Tour '90)

from "Runaway Live" Live at the NEC Arena, Birmingham, UK, May 26, 1990
Lyrics:
I've seen the rain fall down
And wash away a town
I've seen strong hearts easily broken
Why do some things survive
While others live and die
How can a man let his love go unspoken
I couldn't stand to see us end up that way
Just another tragedy
And every night I promise another day
Whatever it takes
I will be there
By your side Baby anywhere
When you're lost and alone
I'll bring you home
I will come thru for you
Whatever it takes
Whatever you need
Whatever comes down between you and me
When the road gets rough
You've gotta trust
I will come thru for you
Whatever it takes
I've opened every door
I always wanted more
I didn't have much to believe in
I searched the world for you
I found what's really true
It's your love that gives me a reason
Baby it's only you who can free my heart
I can't do it on my own
You carry the light of day baby
Thru the dark
Whatever it takes
I will be there
By your side Baby anywhere
When you're lost and alone
I'll bring you home
I will come thru for you
Whatever it takes
Baby I'm bound to you to release my heart
I can't do it on my own
We'll find the light of day baby
Thru the dark
Whatever it takes
La La La La La
Whatever it takes
La La La La La
Whatever it takes
La La La La La

Run away horses one of her best album . What ever it takes I never get tired playing over and over even 30 yrs ago

[@briancrosbie1743]

Best of live. Living life to the full SU. ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@thorstenotte7130]

I still love this song. She is a great singer.

[@mariop8101]

My favorite song from the album. I used to had this concert recorded in VHS.

[@patrickhall8872]

I have the Runaway Horses album on cassette and VHS and still play and listen to all these great songs. Listening on the phone is a very enjoyable experience because Belinda is wonderful on anything recorded.

Είχα πάρει το album Runaway horses όταν πήγαινα γυμνασιο! Κάθε φορά που ακούω τα τραγούδια μου θυμίζουν τον εφηβικό μου έρωτα που δυστυχώς ήταν χωρίς ανταπόκριση! Η Belinda είναι από τις αγαπημένες μου. ♥️💕🌺

[@stewartsnape1231]

When Belinda introduces the song I couldn’t make out what she said about someone wasn’t here tonight , now I heard her say Bryan Adams. This is a great song I always passed it by before when watching runaway horses concert as I only listened to the hits e.g, mad about you, I get weak, heaven is a place on earth etc . But I’m glad I gave it a listen now

[@kjb40]

I can remember going to this concert so well, and to find it was being recorded made it even better she performed so well as always .

Very pretty is an understatement. She is gorgeous.

[@augustfontana1294]

She is also very talented!!!

[@48323652]

[@mohamadazli8104]

[@mcafee8559]

My favourite song by belinda.

[@nnnnhhhhtttt]

Lovely song, lovely Belinda😍😍

[@augustfontana1294]

Belinda has the whole package beauty talent and class!!!

[@carolineberzak3501]

What charisma and a voice. Why is she not in the Rock N Roll half of fame?

[@danisilva1651]

2019 y todavía la escucho...me transporta a los años más felices de mi vida

[@claudi.o]

Preciosa canción de la bella Belinda Carlisle.

[@tadawoosh]

Which only contributes to the underlying sadness in this performance. Just a heartbreaking sadness. The lyrics are so joyous, but she sings them almost like a goodbye. Like a eulogy. She sounds great, but she looks like someone who gave up. She looks like someone who's at the end of the road and crying out for help. She reminds me of Stevie Nicks, who also had a cocaine habit (almost burned a hole right through her nose), was addicted to pills (Klonopin), drank heavily and is lucky to be alive.

[@augustfontana1294]

I disagree. She is singing this song with a lot of emotion the way you"re supposed to sing this kind of song.

[@ValentinaCaulio]

кажется я в нее влюбилась...

[@tadawoosh]

She has amazing lips. The shape, the everything. Her upper lip especially. Kind of looks like Jean Harlow's with the two tips at the top, but a lot prettier shape. Whoever did her make-up here did a great job of accentuating her lips. I obviously love the performance. It's one of favourites. I love her voice here (especially the raspy/harsh/raw/hoarse quality of it). But I can't stop staring at her lips because they look gorgeous. 1:26min-1:36min, 2:08min-2:28min, 3:16min-3:19min.

[@fomalhauto]

raspy/harsh/raw/hoarse but still sounding feminine

[@sherylsavage4512]

Lynne Easton(Pearly Whirly) now passed on did a lot BC's makeup, she also stepped in as backing singer from time to time. Lynne used to be in a punk band called The Spiders if my memory serves me right!

[@markduncan6690]

Fantastic “Groove Keeper”!

[@markduncan6690]

I like Belinda's version! Not having heard Bryan Adams version!

[@mrkurt64]

@ mark duncan Actually Bryan Adams only makes backing vocals in the album version of this song.

[@mariop8101]

You almost don´t hear him.

[@Wrestlelesson]

I think Belinda would had make a good duet with Richard Marx

[@002src]

Una de las mejores canciones de esta increible mujer.

[@willywest752]

That's just for Linda she is who she is

[@augustfontana1294]

How is it Belinda isn"t in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame???

[@brendyquinn]

She is now

[@augustfontana1294]

I mean as a solo artist.

[@me-lq7go]

I have always loved Belinda..the lyrics that were written for her, the musicians who fleshed out her vocals, (Gina, Jane,.. and.... Hello, Kathy! (Vacation, anyone??) and um, (Charlotte who just seems a bit bitchy, lol) ) but sometimes I wish....just for a second....that Belinda even appreciated everything that surrounded her, and propelled her to a life,well, with old Hollywood money..Hello, Morgan!!

[@daniellegrondin8246]

For My Benny IUEAAT

[@briancrosbie1743]

Who needs Bryan Adams tonite SUSAN. WHATEVER IT TAKES. I'LL LOOK AFTER U ❤️

[@tadawoosh]

On the minus side: she looks unhealthy. Judging by her comments and the way she looks here, she was starving herself, which explains the hollow cheekbones. When you starve yourself, you get to a point where there's no more fat to burn so your body starts burning muscle, which makes you look skeletal. It drains the life out of your body because you don't get enough nutrition.

[@kathybramley5609]

Comments? Not about Bryan Adams not being there, I guess!? Did she talk about ED elsewhere?
