Do you believe..in what you see?


Was watching 'House' today and picked up this amazing song from the soundtrack at the end of the episode. Have been hooked to this song and singer since...it' so soulful...and so haunting....the voice and the lyrics...completely mesmerizing.... the song is called 'in the Waiting Line' , the album is Simple Things from Zero 7 and the singer is Sophie Barker..I had never heard of her before... she somehow reminds me of Emily Deschanel from 'Bones'...but now I'm in love with her voice...

Here is a link from youtube


Wait in line
'Till your time
Ticking clock
Everyone stop
Everyone's saying different things to me
Different things to me

Do you believe
In what you see
There doesn't seem to be anybody else who agrees with me

Do you believe
In what you see
Motionless wheel
Nothing is real
Wasting my time
In the waiting line

Nine to five
Living lies
Everyday
Stealing time
Everyone's taking everything they can
Everything they can
Everyone's taking everything they can
Everything they can

Do you believe
In what you feel
It doesn't seem to be anybody else who agrees with me

Ah and I'll shout and I'll scream
But I'd rather not have seen
And i'll hide away for another day...

Everyone's saying different things to me
Different things to me

Thank you so much for this post.
I was also puzzled by this song, just after I watched Dr House
But what puzzles me even more, is to find matching title, using Google search with "do you believe what you see". In no time. Amazing. Internet and Google are so GREAT.
Thank you all, Sophie Barker too.

I first heard this song in one of the Sex and the City episodes. It is a memorable song. Glad I came across the title again. I was trying to remember what it was because it was so haunting.

Can't thank you enough! Just as previous folks have commented, I heard the song on a "House" re-run this month, remembered hearing it before (probably on "Sex/City"), found it mesmerizing,and vowed to track it down. Well, lives get busy, and I forgot about it until I caught myself humming the chorus all day today. I remembered only those same six words of the chorus, plugged them into Google, not expecting much, and presto! found more than I was asking for. Many thanks for your work in searching out title, artist, etc.

Oh guys, life is beautiful. We all have the same taste. I like the way the human mind functions. We all watch Dr House and noticed something peculiar about the soundtrack at the end. That's pretty cool. Thanks for the infos. I guess there will be more comments here in future.

I hate to sound like a broken record but I live in Holland and was watching a re-run of House earlier today. I just had to track this haunting song down and google sent me straight here. The comments to this post amaze me a little bit but in a good way. Anyway, thanks for the help.
