Just Be

Just Be is the second studio album by Dutch DJ Tiësto. It was released on 6 April 2004 in the Netherlands and 15 May 2004 in the United States (see 2004 in music). The album features BT, Kirsty Hawkshaw, and Aqualung on vocals. There is also a remake of Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings". The album's singles were "Love Comes Again", "Traffic", "Just Be" (the title track), and "Adagio for Strings". The track "Sweet Misery" was originally written for Evanescence but it did not meet the deadline for the release of their album.

Style

The album begins with "Forever Today" which is composed of soft sounds of strings which includes a strong bassline later in the song. Its second track, featuring BT, is the second single from the album "Love Comes Again". The song uses Latin percussion sounds which are followed by BT's vocals. The third track is the uplifting "Traffic". Then he introduces his first work with Joanne Lloyd, titled "Sweet Misery", it is a chill out track with dark vocals and flowing synth lines, it is an unexpected break from the usually expected sounds of Tiësto. He continues by performing the title track of his previous album compilation Nyana.

Just Be (Paloma Faith song)

"Just Be" is a song by British recording artist Paloma Faith from her second studio album Fall to Grace (2012). It was released on 16 December 2012 by RCA Records as the fourth single from the album. Written by Faith, Greg Wells and Matt Hales, "Just Be" is a "love song for real lovers". One critic called it an honest portrait of the highs and lows of relationships. "Just Be" reached Number 66 in the UK Singles Chart, three months before it was released. The official music video was released on 5 November 2012 and features Faith in a love affair with a man in New York City.

Background

"Just Be" was written by Faith along with Greg Wells and Matt Hales. It was co-produced by Nellee Hooper and Jake Gosling. It was released by RCA Records on 16 December 2012. Explaining the meaning of the song, Faith stated "It's supposed to be a realistic love song for real lovers. It's saying, 'He gets on my nerves, but I love him.' I find that more endearing than, 'There's no one out there but him.' That seems naive. I have a lot of admiration for people who've been in relationships a long time, married for years. This is a more knowing take on romance." "Just Be" was used by ITV as the soundtrack to their New Season Drama trailer.

    Just Be

    by: Dj Tiesto

    You can travel the world
    But you can't run away
    From the person you are in your heart
    You can be who you want to be
    Make us believe in you
    Keep all your light in the dark
    You're searching for truth
    You must look in the mirror
    And make sense of what you can see
    Just be
    Just be
    They say learning to love yourself
    Is the first step
    But you take what you want to be real
    Flying on plains exotic locations
    Won't teach you
    How you how to feel
    Beside the fact
    That you are who you are
    And nothing can change that believe
    Just be
    Just be
    Cause now I know
    Is not so far
    To were I go
    There's not this spot
    Since this I feel
    I need
    To just be
    Just be
    I was lost
    And I'm still lost
    But I feel so much better
    Cause now I know
    Is not so far
    To were I go
    There's not this spot
    Since this I feel
    I need
    To just be
    Just be
