Michael presents a very special mini set of songs from his very own Clear, as well as from SAGA’s Network album, featuring a stellar performance from piano prodigy Rachel Flowers.

Hopeful and inspirational, these beautiful songs speak of love, loss and courage. Be swept away by Michael’s timeless voice as he breathes a fresh, yet warmly familiar counterpoint to Rachel’s tender and thrilling touch to these much loved classics.

Originally prepared by Rachel for her guest appearance with Michael at ProgStock 2018, her achingly beautiful piano renditions are such a delightful surprise, that Michael wanted to preserve every note forever.

An absolute gift to be cherished and shared.

• Can't Let Go

   

  • Lyrics

    In a world where being sensible means holding back
    How am I suppose to say what's on my mind?
    In a world that taught me how to say what's in my heart
    Why am I suppose to keep it to myself?
    In a world where being honest always has it's price
    How much do I pay and where do I sign?

    And when the curtain falls too soon
    Alone inside an empty room
    I'll still be waiting there for you

    The longer that it takes to say good-bye
    The stronger the fire will burn inside
    But I... I can't let go

    In a world where getting hurt is just another fact of life
    Where am I suppose to go to dry my tears?
    In a world where common sense tells me to turn the page
    Why do I find it so hard to walk away?

    And when the curtain falls too soon
    Alone inside an empty room
    I'll still be waiting there for you

    And when the camera fades to gray
    And you've said all you've had to say
    There's still the memory of your face

    The longer that it takes to say good-bye
    The stronger the fire will burn inside
    But I
    The longer that it takes to say good-bye
    The stronger the fire will burn inside
    But I... I can't let go

• Believe

   

  • Lyrics

    Talk to me
    Tell me how it feels to be misunderstood
    Talk to me
    Explain to me what life is like inside your world

    But don't worry, there's no hurry
    My impatience knows no fury
    Don't worry, there's no hurry
    Take your time, tell me if you're ready

    Come to me
    I will give and receive
    All I need is for you to believe

    Talk to me
    When it feels as though the walls are closing in
    Talk to me
    Day or night, I understand the shape you're in

    But don't worry, there's no hurry
    My impatience knows no fury
    But don't worry, there's no hurry
    Take your time, tell me if you're ready

    Come to me
    I will give and receive
    Take my hand and understand that I believe

    Come to me
    I will help you feel free
    Take my hand and understand that I believe

    All I need is for you to believe
    All I need is for you to believe

  • Lyrics

    I spent each day and night in silent conversation
    Played by rules that I was never taught
    So each game I'd play I'd win
    So thick was my skin

    Acquired a talent for the art of misdirection
    Had everybody fooled or so I thought
    To plagued by the weight of my sins
    I finally caved in
    And let the healing begin

    (Through eyes open wide)
    I look back in awe
    (True lies can't disguise I'm human after all)
    Now that I'm free and I'm clear
    (All the walls have fallen)

    When I look back now it's a wonder I'm still standing
    Considering the damage that I've done
    But these days I can't help but grin
    I finally gave in
    So let the healing begin

    (Through eyes open wide)
    I look back in awe
    (True lies can't disguise I'm human after all)
    Now that I'm free and I'm clear
    (All the walls have fallen)
    I finally found a way to face my fears
    Oh I'm finally clear
    (All the walls have fallen)

    (Through eyes open wide)
    I look back in awe
    (True lies can't disguise I'm human after all)
    Now that I'm free and I'm clear
    (All the walls have fallen)
    I finally found a way to face my fears
    Oh I'm finally clear
    (All the walls have fallen)

    (Through eyes open wide)
    I look back in awe
    (True lies can't disguise I'm human after all)
    Now that I'm free and I'm clear
    (All the walls have fallen)
    I finally found a way to face my fears
    Oh I'm finally clear
    (All the walls have fallen)

    And I'm free and I'm clear
    I finally found a way to face my fears
    Yes I'm finally clear
