Laura Nyro - It's gonna take a miracle 1971 video free download
Laura Nyro (October 18, 1947 -- April 8, 1997) was an American composer, lyricist, singer, and pianist. Her style was a hybrid of Brill Building-style New York pop, jazz, gospel, rhythm and blues, show tunes, rock and soul.
She was best known, and enjoyed her greatest commercial success, as a composer and lyricist rather than as a performer. Between 1968 and 1970 a number of other singers had significant hits with her songs: The 5th Dimension with "Blowing Away", "Wedding Bell Blues", "Stoned Soul Picnic", "Sweet Blindness", "Save The Country" and "Black Patch"; Blood, Sweat & Tears and Peter, Paul & Mary with "And When I Die"; Three Dog Night with "Eli's Coming"; and Barbra Streisand with "Stoney End", "Time and Love", and "Hands off the Man (Flim Flam Man)". Nyro's best-selling single was her recording of Carole King and Gerry Goffin's "Up on the Roof."
Lyrics:
Loving you so
I was too blind to see you
letting me go
But now that you've set me free
It's gonna take a miracle
Yes, it's gonna take a miracle
To make me love someone new
Cause I'm crazy for you
Oh oh, didn't you know
It wouldn't be so easy
lettin' you go
I could have told you
that it's gonna take a miracle
oh-uh Yes, it's gonna take a miracle
To make me love someone new
Cause I'm crazy for you
Oh, tho' I know I can't forget? about you
or come so? will show you how much
You're turning me around, destroying me
I'll never be the same anymore
You must realize
You took your love and left me
Quite by surprise
You can be sure that now it's gonna take a miracle
Yes, it's gonna take a miracle
To make me love someone new
Cause I'm crazy for you

The beautiful and enigmatic Laura Nyro with one of her many classics, after her Monterrey disaster she came back stronger and more determined, she was a huge talent and no one realised it. Died much too young 9 years ago

I'll keep the Deniece Williams version. And FYI, Laura Nyro didn't write this. This came out in 1971. The Royalettes put this out in like 1965. Laura covered them, as did Deniece. And now you know.9 years ago

The emotion, the pain Laura sang of. I must admit I was a late bloomer in learning of all her songs but the list of the many that covered her songs is endless. Fyi that's Patti Labelle singing backup on this song!9 years ago
