How will we feel 20 years from now?
 

Does anyone know where the sample in "I Can't Wait" is from? I really don't think the voice saying "How will we feel 20 years from now?" is Stevie. Is it from a movie or is it just one of the girls? I've always wondered that. In fact, the whole line is "How will we feel 20 years from now, looking back" You can hear it in the remix the last time it's played.

I always thought it was Sharon's voice.

I always thought that it said
"HOWWWISHHHHAYELLAAYYAHHAGAGENERATIONAL"
I guess I was wrong.:shocked:

I think it's Stevie. They alter it a little at first and then a lot more as they repeat it. I think that's such a great part of the song...it's like she's obsessed, demanding and impatient then in the back of her head thinking "be careful of what you ask for, for you may surely get it."

She does not say "How will we feel 20 yrs from now"

I always thought she sang "Now that I love you"

I hear "how will we feel 20 years from now". :shrug: On Enchanted its changed to "how will we feel ten years from now".

I think at the beginning she says "how will I love you" meaning 20 years from now.

then, in the breakdown, it's "how will it feel 20 years from now" - at the very end, if you have the extended version she does also say "now that I love you"

or at least, that's the way I sang it at NOTS. :laugh:

I am re-listening to this song right now because I honestly have never had ANY idea what our girl was saying in that part. But anyway, I'm watching the video for it on You Tube and I swear, this song brings back so many freaking memories for me. I was at the height of my obsession with her when this came out. I was such a geek! I used to drive around in my camaro with my girlfriends singing this at the top of our lungs. And we used to do the little things with our hands over our face at the instrumental part (we were only like, 18, okay?). :woohoo:

To me it sounds like she is singing it, or it's the backup singers singing it... How will we feel 20 years from now.. How will we feel 20 years from now... [repeated about 6 times] The vocal is manipulated to go higher each time then back down... about 6 times in total. It starts at about 3:40 on the 12 inch version.

She sings the "Now That I Love You" later on in the song.

yeah, she does say that at one point.

Does she really sing "now that I love you"? It's been a while since I listened to I Can't Wait, so maybe I missed something. I always thought she was singing a variation on her question "how do I love you," alternating between "how will I love you" and "how can I love you."

One or all of the above.....:nod: :rolleyes:
Just because those other lyrics "How will we feel..etc" are listed does NOT
mean they were included or that she sang them.
P.S. JAZ would know..lol:nod:

Thank you!!!!!:thumbsup:

it depends on which part of the song you're listening to. she definitely sings how will I love you and now that I love you, just at different parts of the song.

THANK YOU!:thumbsup:
