about

A remake of Benjamin Russell's synth-based song that was a hit on Toronto's trend-setting CFNY radio station back in the 80's. The song earned Russell a nomination for Most Promising Male Vocalist in the nationally televised 1985 CASBY Awards (Gowan won the award that year for Strange Animal). This catchy all-new pop version shows why the song was (and continues to be) so popular. The original version of MIRACLE (Miracle of Love) is now out of print but repeated requests from frustrated fans inspired Russell to re-record the song for this album. This version is a totally fresh arrangement with no synths in evidence, just real drums (played by Mike Bessette, Russell's punk cohort from their band, The Strokes -- no not that band, this band was first!), and tenor sax played by Russell (who loves his Jupiter sax!)

lyrics

Love is the miracle that keeps me alive
Love is the miracle, side by side
Hearts open wide - powerglide

I feel unbeatable when you say I'm good
It's unbelievable, didn't know I could
Be so understood, knock on wood

I thank God for the lifetimes
I thank you for the lifelines you throw me
I thank God for the lifetimes
I thank you for the miracle of love

I remember when it used to be so dark and lonely
I can't forget, it changed, you said you loved me only
Love me only

I thank God...
