Still The Same
Slade · The Very Best Of Slade [2005]
Oh we ain't goin' nowhere
We're just looking for somewhere
Whatever pulled us apart is still the same
It's still the same
Oh we're all one day older
Your hands are gradually colder
What made me weak in the knees is still the same
It's still the same
Oh you ain't been so tender
Your smell and how I remember
Although your only cologne is still the same
It's still the same
Oh I ain't a great romancer
And I ain't got all of the answers
What made me weak in the knees is still the same
It's still the same
Chorus
Nothing's changed
I'm taking the blame
No, nothing has changed
It's still the same
Nothing's changed
Start all over again
It's all in the game
It's still the same
It's still the same
Oh I know nothing's changing
I know I need re-arranging
I know I'm taking the blame, it's still the same
It's still the same
Oh I know nothing is changing
I know there's nothing remaining
I know it's all in the game, it's still the same
Still The Same
Chorus R E P E A T

Oh you ain't been so tender
Your smell and how I remember
Although your only cologne is still the same
It's still the same
Oh I ain't a great romancer
And I ain't got all of the answers
What made me weak in the knees is still the same

Oh I know nothing is changing

Still The Same - Slade
Released on Slade's 2005 greatest hits compilation, 'Still The Same' captures the band's signature blend of hard rock and disco-infused pop that defined their era. As a staple of their discography, the track showcases the dynamic interplay between lead singer Mike d'Abo's distinctive vocals and the driving rhythm section that became Slade's hallmark. The song reflects the broader catalog of their work, which often combined catchy melodies with energetic instrumentation, cementing their status as one of the UK's most influential rock acts of the late 1970s. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to deliver a high-energy performance that remains recognizable decades later.
