Subject: RE: ADD: No Frontiers (Jimmy MacCarthy/McCarthy) From: Steve Shaw Date: 30 Jun 22 - 05:12 AM No Frontiers, sung by Mary Black, was a track on the album (which, when I bought it, comprised three vinyl LPs) which was connected to a TV series in the early 90s called Bringing It All Back Home. |
Subject: RE: No Frontiers Jimmy McCarthy From: Joe Offer Date: 30 Jun 22 - 12:12 AM from https://www.mary-black.net/song.php?id=310 NO FRONTIERS (Jimmy MacCarthy) If life is a river and your heart is a boat And just like a water baby, baby born to float And if life is a wild wind that blows way on high Then your heart is Amelia dying to fly Heaven knows no frontiers And I've seen heaven in your eyes And if life is a bar room in which we must wait 'Round the man with his fingers on the ivory gates Where we sing until dawn of our fears and our fates And we stack all the deadmen in self addressed crates In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark That somehow this black night Feels warmer for the spark Warmer for the spark To hold us 'til the day When fear will lose its grip And heaven has its way Heaven knows no frontiers And I've seen heaven in your eyes If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right Then your heart is a pure flame of man's constant night In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark That somehow this black night Feels warmer for the spark Warmer for the spark To hold us 'til the day when fear will lose its grip And heaven has its way And heaven has its way When all will harmonise And know what's in our hearts The dream will realise Heaven knows no frontiers And I've seen heaven in your eyes Heaven knows no frontiers And I've seen heaven in your eyes The lyrics above are an accurate transcription of this Mary Black recording: Recording by the Corrs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RE1G5xx65Ao |
Subject: RE: No Frontiers Jimmy McCarthy From: Joe Offer Date: 22 Jun 22 - 11:41 PM Needs work. I don't know where the Noel Braul attribution comes from. Songfile.com attributes a song titled "No Frontiers" to Jimmy MacCarthy, and so does Mary Black's Website. Who's Noel Braul, and who is CC, who submitted the lyrics to the Digital Tradition?
NO FRONTIERS (DT Lyrics) (Noel Braul) lf life is a river and your heart is a boat, Just like a water baby, baby, born to float And if life is a wild wind that blows way on high And your heart is Emelia, dying to fly cho: Heaven knows no frontiers And I've seen heaven in your eyes. And if life is a bar room in which we must wait 'Round the man with his fingers on the ivory gate. Where we sing until dawn of our fears and our fates And we stack all the dead men in self addressed crates. In your eyes, faint as the singing of a lark That somehow this black night Feels warmer for the spark Warmer for the spark To hold us 'til the day when fear will lose its grip And heaven has its way. cho: If your life is a rough bed of brambles and nails And your spirit's a slave to man's whips and man's jails Where you thirst and you hunger for justice and right And your heart is a pure flame of man's constant night In your eyes faint as the singing of a lark That somehow this black night Feels warmer for the spark Warmer for tbe spark To hold us 'til tbe day when fear will lose its grip And heaven has its way And heaven has its way When all will harmonise And know what's in our hearts The dream will realize Repeat cborus twice.

Subject: No Frontiers Jimmy McCarthy From: breezy Date: 07 Apr 11 - 11:57 AM Can someone explain why in the D T it is credited to Noel Braul please ? |
Subject: RE: Tab for No Frontiers From: Jennyldb Date: 10 Oct 03 - 11:33 AM i now have a recording of the corrs version. It is the same song. |
Subject: RE: Tab for No Frontiers From: Jennyldb Date: 10 Oct 03 - 08:16 AM I heard this song sung in a singaround at the fylde festival this year. The singer said it had been recorded by Mary Black and also by the Corrs so I think its the same one |
Subject: RE: Tab for No Frontiers From: GUEST,Billy J Date: 16 Oct 00 - 04:10 PM The song is on a tape or CD singer Mary Black |
Subject: RE: Tab for No Frontiers From: John in Brisbane Date: 15 Oct 00 - 10:20 PM The lyrics for this are in the DT but I can't recall ever hearing it. Is this the same song as recorded by The Corrs? I've found a Corrs MIDI at http://w1.470.telia.com/~u47004535/The%20Corrs/nofront.mid
Couls someone plese verify that this tune matches the lyrics in the DT. That way we can plug a hole in the DT and go some way towards answering Herge's question, if somewhat belatedly. Regards, John |
