Batman Forever Soundtrack Lyrics






U2 - Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me

You don't know how you took it
You just know what you've got
Oh Lordy, you've been stealing
From the thieves and you got caught
In the headlights of a stretch car
You're a star

Dressing like your sister
Living like a tart
They don't know what you're doing
Babe, it must be art
You're a headache, in a suitcase
You're a star

Oh no, don't be shy
You don't have to go blind
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

You don't know how you got here
You just know you want out
Believing in yourself
Almost as much as you doubt
You're a big smash
You wear it like a rash
Star

Oh no, don't be shy
It's a crime to cry
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

They want you to be Jesus
Now go down on one knee
But they want their money back
If you're alive at thirty-three
And you're turning tricks
With your crucifix
You're a star
Ooh child

Of course you're not shy
You don't have to deny love
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me

PJ Harvey - One Time Too Many

He's seen me
So clearly
Come over
And get my number

He'd come round
He'd break down
Say baby
Don't ever leave me

He'd please me
He'd tease me
One time too
One time too many

Brandy - Where Are You Now?

You just came into my world
A little boy without a girl
You just smiled at me,
I knew it was on...
We spent weeks that were a blur
We made love so sweet and pure,
Then I knew, you were gone
Where is the man I've come to know?
With the heart I thought was gold
You just turned me out and walked out the door,
How could you just be so cold?
What a hard and heavy blow
Now I'm lying here, alone on the floor
Ooh...

Are you in a better place?
Or behind another's face?
Where are you now?

I've searched inside my soul
For the reasons never told
And what bothers me, is they know
You should have told me from the start
Instead of playing with my heart
You just left me here with nothing to hold
So...
I'm taking it easy, cleared my head
Cried me a river, said some prayers
But I often wonder, when I'm in my bed
Where are you now?

Are you in a better place?
Or behind another's face?
Where are you now?

(Repeat till end)

Seal - Kiss From A Rose

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea
You became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooo, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
Baby, to me, you're like a growing
Addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooo, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

I've been kissed by a rose on the grey
I've been kissed by a rose on the grey
And if I should fall, will it all go away?
I've been kissed by a rose on the grey

There is so much a man can tell you
So much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
Baby, to me, you're like a growing
Addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large
And the light that you shine can't be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooo, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey

Eddi Reader - Nobody Lives Without Love

Seems like I've gone off the side of a mountain
couldn't be sure I was even alive
fallen from the icy heights
landed with a broken cry
in this valley of shadow
sorrow and sighs
can you save me baby?

Nobody lives without love
nobody gets to give up
you can try to lock your heart away
the love will come back for you some day
nobody lives without love

Thought I could live my life as a stranger
hide from the heartbreak of love all life through ???
make it to the higher ground
try to turn the volume down
couldn't stop the sirens from singing
sing for me baby

Nobody lives without love
nobody gets to give up
you can try to lock your heart away
the love will come back for you some day
nobody lives without love

You came along like a flash of your like... ???
crashed into my life like a runaway star
feels like I'm falling in gravity's action
I'm standing here offering a stranger my heart

You can even lock your heart away
the love will come back for it some day
nobody lives without love
(nobody lives without love)
(nobody lives without love)
(nobody lives without love)
since I got blown off the side of the mountain
(nobody lives without love)
couldn't be sure if I was even alive
(nobody lives without love)
thought I could live my life as a stranger
hide from the heartbreak of love...
(nobody lives without love)

Massive Attack - The Hunter Gets Captured by the Game

[ Featuring Tracey Thorn ]

Everyday brings change, and the world puts on a new face
Sudden things rearrange, and this whole world seems like a new place
Oh yeah, secretly I been tailing you
Like a fox that prays on a rabbit
Had to get you and so I knew
I had to learn your ways and habits
Oh, you were the catch that I was after
But I looked up and I was in your arms and I knew that I was captured

What's this whole world comin' to
Things just ain't the same
Any time the hunter gets captured by the game

I had to lay such a tender trap
Hoping you might fall into it
Love hit me like a sudden slap
One kiss and then I knew it
Oh, my plans didn't work out like I thought
'Cause I had laid my trap for you but it seems like I got caught

What's this whole world comin' to
Things just ain't the same
Any time the hunter gets captured by the game

Mazzy Star - Tell Me Now

Tell me now
Three days of spirits
Tell me now
I'm here like a spell
That's bearing me to drive

Tell me now
That there are three days in a week
Tell me now
To make it so
Make it so I can't speak
Make it so I can't speak
Well I'm here like a spell
That's bearing me to drive

Eyes of blue
Sea of red
Take me to
Where I've never been dead
Where I've never been dead
Hey, it's between myself and me
It's a very lonely place
Between myself
It's lonely
Between myself
It's a lonely
Place
Crimson red
Yourself
Back up to me

The Offspring - Smash It Up

[ Originally by The Damned ]

We've been playing now for much too long
And never gonna dance to a different song
I'm gonna scream and shout till my dying breath
I'm gonna smash it up till there's nothing left

Ooh smash it up
Smash it up smash it up
Ooh smash it up
Smash it up smash it up

People call me weird, oh it's such a shame
Maybe it's my clothes, must be to blame
I don't even care if I look a mess
Don't wanna be a sucker like all the rest

Smash it up
And you can keep your crystal glasses
Smash it up
And you can see a very dead-way end
Smash it up
And you can stick a frothy lager
Smash it up
Up the f*ck with your lesson

We've been playing now for much too long
And never gonna dance to a different song
I'm gonna scream and shout till my dying breath
I'm gonna smash it up till there's nothing left

And everybody's smashing things down
I said everybody's smashing things down

Nick Cave - There Is A Light

There is a town
Where I was born
Far far away
Across the sea
And in that town
Where I was born
I would dream
That one day
I would leave and cross the sea

And so it goes
And so it seems
That God lives only in our dreams
In our dreams

And now I live
In this town
I walk these dark streets
Up and down, up and down
Under a dark sky
And I dream
That one day
I'll go back home

And so it goes
And so it seems
That God lives only in our dreams
In our dreams

Method Man - The Riddler

Dead crosswords, puzzling your delf
(Get yourrrrrrrr headpiece strapped on tight)
See, that's what I'm talkin bout
When you take the Johnny Blaze (you're dealing with Johnny Blaze)
(the Johnny Blaze)
and you take that game and you plug that here into Bobby Steels
(ohh yeahhhhh)
Nowwwww you are playing with power
(yeahhhhh get that mouthpiece screwed on right dude)
(You're dealing with the Bobby Steels) with power
(the Bobby Steels) Now you are playing with power

I got your mind twisted
Unrealistic wavelength draining on your brain-strip inflicted
Crosswords puzzling your delf
Questioning your own mental health (yeah) it's like a maze within itself
(yeah) Check the grimey, slimey, slimey
Crim-inim-inal indivi-dual I be
Searching for the Dark Knight
Lurking in the shadows of the city (the city) he roll with jiggy
My crime committee, robbing every Gotham piggy bank blinnnnnnnd
Take a journey through the mind of a Riddler

Tax free money not a problem (that's no problem)
A price to get the ice not a problem (that's no problem)
A body for a price not a problem (that's no problem)
Hmm the Riddler

Once again it's the mind bender, three-time felony offender
Demented, brain cemented, mixed in the blender
I lose ya, mass-confusion, question mark clues in
What where why whose-in, quiz
Time to ask yourself who it is
Sheisty P.L.O. underhanded biz, invading brothers wigs
(wigs) Can I live
Corrupt and bringing all the misery and suffering
Pain, you couldn't cure with a Bufferin
Rotating, ridiculous, rapid-fire riddle
Bat get trapped in the middle of the Riddler

Murder for the evil not a problem (not a problem)
To the gen there ain't no sequel not a problem (it's not a problem)
Big up to all my people not a problem (that's no problem)
Hah-hah, the Riddler

Observe if you will
I'm in my hide-out in the back of the hill (yeah)
I crack a wall then I caught about a mil
Co-defendant Johnny Blaze and Bobby Steels
We was blazing hardware (hardware)
Turn the corner you can hear the wheels squeel *rehrrarrrr*
On that ass fast was the Batmobile (Batmobile)
I can tell by the demon on the grill, this was real
Alley-cat screaming *ahhh*, I hit a trash can
Garbage everywhere, money flying out the bags and
trying to escape, code nine with the cape
Or else he'd be headed upstate, it's the Riddler

Talkin' suicide, not a problem (that's no problem)
If you're speaking homicide not a problem (that's no problem)
You want to talk genocide not a problem (that's no problem)
It's yhe Riddler

Word up, that's no problem
Stim-ulim-uli, stim-ulim-uli
Feel good don't it
And you know it
Got ta, hotter
You're playing with power

Michael Hutchence - The Passenger

[ Originally by Iggy Pop ]

I am a passenger
And I ride and I ride
Ride through the city's back sides
See stars come out of the sky
Yeah the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am a passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
See the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's red back side
And everything looks good tonight

Sing it
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la

Get into the car
We'll be the passengers
We'll ride through the city at night
See the city's red back side
See the bright and hollow sky
See the stars that shine so bright
The stars made for us tonight

Oh the passenger
How how he rides
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
Looks through his window
What does he see?
Sees the bright and hollow sky
Sees the stars come out tonight
Sees the city's red back side
Sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
It just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride
See what's mine

Sing it
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la

Sing it
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

The Devlins - Crossing The River

Something tells me I can trust in you
There's no pretense in the things you do
So much water under the bridge
And I'm standing here at the water's edge
Looking into your eyes

I'm crossing the river to get to you
I'm crossing the river
Crossing the river

You had the longing of a broken heart
Shine your light in a room that was frozen dark
Looking into your eyes (looking into your eyes)

I'm crossing the river (crossing the river ) to get to you
I'm crossing the river (crossing the river)
And this time I'll make it through
With your faith and your arms open wide
I see you there on the other side
Crossing the river, of fear and pride

There's no turning back,
I know I've come so far and I've got so far to go
Looking into your eyes (looking into your eyes)
I'm crossing the river (crossing the river ) to get to you
I'm crossing the river (crossing the river)
And this time I'll make it through
With your faith and your arms open wide
I see you there on the other side
Crossing the river, of fear and pride

Oh yeah, I'm crossing the river
I'm crossing the river (crossing the river)
Crossing the river to get to you

The Flaming Lips - Bad Days

You're sorta' stuck where you are
But in your dreams you can buy expensive cars
Or live on mars
And have it your way

And you hate you're boss at your job
But in your dreams you can blow his head off
In your dreams, show no mercy
And all your bad days will end

And all your bad days will end
You have to sleep late when you can!
And all your bad days will end!
And all your bad days will end

And all your bad days will end
You have to sleep late when you can
And all your bad days will end

Back to: Batman


Batman Forever: Music from the Motion Picture is the 1995 soundtrack to the motion picture Batman Forever.

Only five of the songs are actually featured in the movie. Hit singles from the soundtrack include "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" by U2 and "Kiss from a Rose" by Seal, both of which were nominated for MTV Movie Awards. "Kiss from a Rose" (whose video was also directed by Joel Schumacher) reached No. 1 in the U.S. charts as well.

The soundtrack itself, featuring additional songs by the Flaming Lips, Brandy, the Offspring (songs also included in the film), Method Man, Nick Cave, Michael Hutchence (of INXS), PJ Harvey, and Massive Attack, was an attempt to (in producer Peter MacGregor-Scott's words) make the film more "pop".

The soundtrack was hugely successful, selling almost as many copies as Prince's soundtrack to the 1989 Batman film. A second album, featuring over 40 minutes of Elliot Goldenthal's Original Motion Picture Score, was released two weeks after the soundtrack album.

In 1996, "Kiss from a Rose" won three Grammy Awards for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
Genre(s): Soundtrack
Released: May 30th, 1995
Year: 1995
