Song of the Week: Scala's "With or Without You" (U2 Cover)

My. Oh. My.

Have you heard of Scala? It's a youth choir from Aarschot, Belgium, roughly sixty teenage girls, directed by two talented brothers--Steven and Stijned Kolacny.

They have some newer stuff--you should hear their rendition of Gordon Lightfoot's "If You Could Read My Mind" from their most recent project, One-Winged Angel (Amazon; Walmart). But here's their cover of the U2 song, "With or Without You," from their 2004 import project, Dream On (Amazon).

(Watch a video of the girls singing this song here.)

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And Im waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I cant live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, shes got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I cant live
With or without you

With or without you
With or without you
I cant live
With or without you
With or without you
