How Soon Is Now

T.A.T.U. · The Best [2006]

I am the son and the heir

Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar

I am the son and heir

Of nothing in particular



You shut your mouth

How can you say?

I go about things the wrong way

I am human and I need to be loved

Just like everybody else does



I am the son I am the heir

Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar

I am the son and heir

Of nothing in particular



You shut your mouth

How can you say

I go about things the wrong way

I am human and I need to be loved

Just like everybody else does



There's a club if you'd like to go you

Could meet somebody who really loves you

So you go, and you stand on your own and

You leave on your own and you go home,

And you cry and you want to die.



When you say it's gonna happen now,

When exactly do you mean? see I've already

Waited too long and all my hope is gone



You shut your mouth

How can you say

I go about things the wrong way

I am human and I need to be loved

Just like everybody else does

How Soon Is Now

Released during the height of the Eurodance era, the song blends the duo's signature robotic vocal style with driving electronic beats to create an infectious rhythm. While the group is globally recognized for hits like All the Things She Said, this recording represents a distinct chapter in their discography, showcasing their ability to adapt their sound for compilation releases while maintaining their unique identity. The track remains a staple of their catalog, reflecting the pop-electronic landscape of the mid-2000s and continuing to resonate with fans of the genre.
