I saw you
Again I knew
Just where you’d be?
I’ll stop this real soon
When you’re back safe with me
When you come home, I’ll stop this
When you come home, I’ll hide it good
I’ll never cry again, when you come home, to me
In picture
I’d see it, you weren’t really there
In truth
I still feel it hanging in the air
When you come home, I’ll stop this
When you come home, I’ll hide it good
I’ll never cry again, when you come home, to me
With the night behind you
You walk away, and I will find you
We are locked in this emotion
We will find the way home
And it’s too late
To regret the mistakes we made
Easier to walk away
And it’s too late
To remember all the words we say
Nothing will ever be the same
When the world surrounds you
You take your place with me, behind you
These are every word unspoken
This is our way home
And it’s too late
To regret the mistakes we made
Easier to walk away
When the world surrounds you
You walk away…
And it’s too late
To regret the mistakes we made
Easier to walk away
And it’s too late
[To remember] all the words we say
Nothing will ever be the same
And it’s too late
To regret the mistakes we made
Easier to walk away
You walk away…
I’ve been running on, running on empty
For way too many miles now
I’ve been flying with broken wings
And now I’m falling faster to the ground
And it’s a bitter end to a story so sweet
Like a long lost friend
That’s never found a way back to me
And I can’t deny these memories
Got me all locked up inside
And you hold the key
All that I need is this moment
To send me away with a smile on my face
I tried to leave but I turn back
On my heart remains a trace
All that I see is this moment
All day in my mind I recreate
If there was a way to get back
This feeling of chase..of chase
All that I need is this moment
This moment..
Biography
I was lured into the world of trance like many by the classic hit by ATB, ‘9pm (Till I Come)’. I was 14 at the time and this led me to discovering one of the greatest trance compilation series of all time, ‘Trance Nation’. At the time these were mixed by Ferry Corsten, and it is his skills that created my interest in DJing.
During my time at university I practiced the basics on my computer, and in November 2006 I finally took the plunge and bought my own set of CDJs. After a few months of mastering the transition from software to hardware, I played my first set at Sunset in St Helens. This was a back to back set with a good friend who had confidence in my skills enough to unleash me on a live audience. This soon led to my first solo set at Progression in Dereham, a performance that went down rather well with the trance lovers in the area.
I now have a steady flow of gigs lined up, including a return to the place of my solo debut at Progression. The first 12 months were great, the second 12 are guaranteed to be even better..
I came across dj Matt Turner through a mix tape of his. Pocket Damage. It was awesome.

What do I do?
What can I say?
It’s nothing new
The choice was made
But what if I lose my way?
And run right into you
Deep inside we’ll never be anything other than lonely
Tell me what does it take?
To breathe it into you
Weak inside we’ll never be anything other than lonely
One bleeding scar
Still feels how it used to feel
It’s all so wrong
No easy way to believe
What do I do?
What can I say?
It’s nothing new
The choice was made
But what if I lose my way?
And run right into you
Deep inside we’ll never be anything other than lonely
Tell me what does it take?
To breathe it into you
Weak inside we’ll never be anything other than lonely
I wanna ride
I wanna hide
What I’ve become
Now you’re no longer mine
I wanna feel
Something that’s real
Somewhere inside
But what if I lose my way?
And run right into you
Deep inside we’ll never be anything other than lonely
Tell me what does it take?
To breathe it into you,
Weak inside we’ll never be anything other than lonely
I wanna ride
I wanna hide
What I’ve become
Now you’re no longer mine
I wanna feel
Something that’s real
Somewhere insïde
Track Review
Label: Maelstrom
Physical Release Date: 24th March 2008
Tiesto dons his Allure hat once again teaming up with Julie Thompson for the superb new single “Somewhere Inside”. A standout live track from the Elements Of Life world tour, Julie has performed “Somewhere Inside” with Tiesto to over 500,000 people globally over the last 12 months so is established as a fan favourite.
Original Mix
First things first: I don’t like Tiesto. Those of you who have read my reviews in the past will know that I am always more than glad to admit to this. Luckily for him this isn’t Tiesto, this is “Allure”. Like many of you, I first heard this tune on the “In Search Of Sunrise 6″ compilation mixed by the man himself. I may not like his productions in general, but I can honestly say I love this song. Initially it seems like a rather boring and calm melodic affair, but it’s so beautiful you can’t help falling in love with it. Just the right level of synth is applied to maximise the emotion produced by Julie Thompson’s fantastic vocal. To top it all off, a guitar-like element is added which only enhances the mood. This is one of those songs that would make me close my eyes on the dancefloor and drift off into a world of my own.
Andy Duguid Remix
Andy’s got a tough job here. How do you follow up such a beautiful original mix? Add a slightly dirty electro bassline of course! The most effective elements of the original mix are combined with the new bassline to great effect, with a few piano keys added to the breakdown just to give this remix a distinctive edge. Not a bad effort, but this is one of those songs that cannot be made better.
Rating:
A return to form from Tiesto, in the most fantastic way possible. 9/10
