GET HERE Music and Lyrics, Brenda Russell You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man I don't care how you get here, just- get here if you can You can reach me by sailboat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope Take a sled and slide down slow, into these arms of mine You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope I don't care how you get here, just- get here if you can There are hills and mountains between us Always something to get over If I had my way, then surely you would be closer I need you closer You can windsurf into my life, take me up on a carpet ride You can make it in a big balloon, but you better make it soon You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man I don't care how you get here, just- get here if you can I don't care, I dont care, I need you right here right now I need you right here, right now, right by my side I don't care how you get here, just- get here if you can. "Get Here" is a pop ballad written by American singer/songwriter Brenda Russell which became an international hit via a 1990 recording by Oleta Adams, reaching #4 in the UK and #5 (#8 R&B) in the US. Brenda Russell had written the song while staying at a penthouse in Stockholm: the tune came to her as she viewed some hot air balloons floating over the city, a sight Russell recalls set her "really tripping on how many ways you can get to a person" (the eventual song's lyrics include the line: "You can make it in a big balloon but you'd better make it soon"). Although Russell did not pursue the musical ideas that came to her as her current record label saw her as a dance artist and she thought would not be interested in a song such as the one which became "Get Here", the song was still in the singer's mind when she woke up the next day: "I don't read or write music [therefore] it's extraordinary if a song is still in my head that I haven't jotted down or recorded. So if it's still in my head overnight, I think that's something extra special, it's like somebody trying to tell me something." Russell recorded the song as the title cut of her 1988 album from which it was issued as a single - the album's third - reaching the Top 40 on the Billboard R&B charts. It was while Oleta Adams was visiting Stockholm that she heard the original Brenda Russell version of "Get Here" playing in a record store and was sufficiently impressed with the song to record it for her 1990 debut album Circle of One. Adams' "Get Here" was issued as a single - after two previous tracks from Circle of One had been released to scant notice - in November 1990; world events at this time gave the song a resonance as an anthem for the US troops in the Gulf War - underscored by the lyrics: "You can reach me by caravan|Cross the desert like an Arab man" - which impelled Adams' single into the Top Ten of the Billboard Hot 100 in the spring of 1991 . A signature number of Justin Guarini during season #1 of American Idol and included on the Justin Guarini album, "Get Here" has also been recorded by Vanessa Amorosi, Paul Anka, David Archuleta, Alexia Gardner, Barbara Mandrell, Omar Chakil (who wrote French lyrics for his version: "Tu m'as tout donné "), Q featuring Tracey Ackerman, Jennifer Rush, Livingston Taylor and Jonalyn Viray. A humorous cover, which featured comedy sound effects after each method of transport mentioned, was performed by fictional singer Michelle Coffee in the Peter Kay series Phoenix Nights. The Beautiful South's album Gaze included a song with the same title and, partially, similar lyrics - but reversed the theme, with Paul Heaton protesting his unwillingness to travel any distance at all for his lover. (Sample lyric: "You can get here by helicopter"/"I can barely make Blackpool sands").
