Nineties Revisited: If You be Mine


Original video located here. Accessed 23rd July 2021

Song title: If You Be Mine

Artist: Babybird

Year: 1998

Why I like this song:

Babybird may had netted a huge hit with You're Gorgeous but I always though this, from the followup album, was the better song. 

The strings are the main selling point here along with the chorus and production. But the verses still perplex me as they seem at odds with the chorus. Still, as a lovestruck teenager back in 1998 this song did speak to me and, to that end, it still does.
