Average song rating "Someplace Else" and "Breath Away From Heaven" were songs from the Hand-Made film entitled "Shanghai Surprise" (the two bonus cuts "Shanghai Surprise" and "Zig Zag" also came from this movie). The movie was considered a flop although it starred Madonna and Sean Penn during their brief marriage, and from what I have read the ordeal of having to work with those two was a bitter experience for Mr. Harrison, who abandoned Hand-Made Films soon afterward. That's funny to me, since I rather enjoyed the movie and found Madonna to be as close to likeable as she ever has been... Anyway, "Someplace Else" is the love theme written for the couple and turns out to be quite a beautiful, sensitive song. George Harrison's name is not readily associated with love songs, but he has written some of the finest that I have ever heard ("I Need You", "Something", "If I Needed Someone", "Behind That Locked Door", "Beautiful Girl", "Our Love is Forever", "Soft Touch", "Mystical One", etc.--quite an impressive list!)

Lyrics

(Someplace else)

You got into my life
I don't know how you found me, but you did
It stopped me heading someplace else

Took me a while to say
Wish you belong to me
But now I'm saddened like I've never been
Regretting that we'll leave

And for a while you could comfort me
And hold me for some time
I need you now to be beside me
While all my world is so untidy

Loneliness (oh-o-oh)
Empty faces (oh-o-oh)
Wish I could leave them all (o-oh)
In someplace else

(Someplace else)

I hope you won't let go
Maybe you'll let me know
That you'll be saddened like you've never been
Regretting that we'll leave

And for a while I could comfort you
And hold you in my mind
I need you now to be beside me
While all my world is sad and crazy

Loneliness (oh-o-oh)
Empty faces (oh-o-oh)
Wish I could leave them all (o-oh)
In someplace else

And for a while you could comfort me
And hold me for some time
I need you now to be beside me
While all my world is so untidy

Loneliness (oh-o-oh)
Empty faces (oh-o-oh)
Wish I could leave them all (o-oh)
In someplace else

Loneliness (oh-o-oh)
Empty faces (oh-o-oh)
Wish I could leave them all (o-oh)
In someplace else

(Someplace else)

I think I'm gonna leave them all
In someplace else

(Someplace else)
