Subject: Joan Osborne's "One of Us"
Written By: beto on 04/28/04 at 9:55 pm
Hi there,
Does anybody know what the lyrics are for the small song Joan Osborne sings at the very beginning of her song "One of Us"? It's not the stuff we already know (If God had a name, etc...). Sounds liturgical or something. I tried to get the words out but it proved to be unfruitful.
Thanx a lot everybody.

Since it came out in '95, maybe someone in The 1990's board may know! ;D
It's an introduction of "The Airplane Ride", a gospel song by Nell Hampton
So one of these nights and about twelve o'clock,
This old world's goin' ta reel and rock.
Saints will tremble and cry for pain,
For the Lord's gonna come in his heavenly
airplane.

Yeah, that's it. I DID forget about the time it came out (around 1995), ever so sorry!
It was of great help my friend. Thank you.
One more thing: the words in your signature, they look bloody familiar to me. Where do they come from anyway? I've got to remember.
Thank you again.

Glad to help you Beto! My pleasure.
The lyrics in my signature are from the song "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" by The Smiths

It's sort of 80's related, as it was written by a member of The Hooters.

Take away an "R" from Brazilian, and you got the name of the guy who wrote the song--Eric Bazilian!
