From what I gather, Patti recorded some demo's with Paul Crook while in Las Vegas for their parts in "We Will Rock You".
I found these while digging around in places I probably shouldn't have been able to dig around in. Don't ask, I don't know how either.
TAKE A RIDE
The sun comes up, another hammer to fall
Your screaming inside but never wanna answer the call
You're spending all this time just wasting your life away
With just a 9 to 5 baby, I can tell you that ain't no way to live
'Cause there's a world my friend that you've been missing
So when the sun goes down, oh, you'll be wishing
Beter hold on tight now, get ready for some living
Take a ride to hell and hide
If you wanna good time
We're gonna do it tonight, aah
Take a ride
You've got your whole damn life just waiting around for you (to go and live it)
You've got your dreams on high but still you wanna play by the rules
Oo one of these days those dreams are gonna walk out of your life
Leave you standing on the corner like a little old fool
Well it's a God damned shame, ooh
'Cause you're wasting your life away now
Everybody's gotta work all day oh
Find time to do some living
Hit it!
Ha! Take a ride to hell and hide
If you wanna good time
We're gonna do it tonight
No! Ain't no time for denying all you wanna do
If you wanna good time
Come on and take a ride
Take a ride
Come on....
Take a ride to hell and hide
If you wanna good time
We're gonna do it tonight
No! Ain't no time for denying all you wanna do
If you wanna good time
Come on and take a ride
Take a ride
Come on, take a ride
Take a ride....

TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY HEART
The time is near and I'll have to go
I'll drown myself in a river of tears, I know
'Cause you have you life to live, and I have my own
But just one thing:
Take good care of my heart
Take good care of my heart
Don't ever let it know I'm gone from yours
Take good care of my heart
Don't want to face the night when I'm with you one last time
Don't know just what I'll do, leaving you behind
Before we say goodbye, take this heart of mine
Then let me go
Take good care of my heart
Take good care of my heart
Don't ever let it know I'm gone from yours
Take good care of my heart
Why does love tell you to follow your heart?
Well, I did and now I'm falling all apart
Baby, you know that if I could I'd stay
I'd stay.....
Don't ever let it know I'm gone from yours
Take
(take good care of my heart)
Take my heart
(take good care of my heart)
Forever—ever—ever
I don't want my heart to break
When I'm gone, so take it
(take good care of my heart)
Take my heart
(take good care of my heart)
Don't ever let it know I'm gone
Don't wanna break it
Baby, take good care of my heart
My heart
My heart
My heart
My heart....

Some of you may have already heard this one. I had started writing this one in 2001 and had a rather dodgy demo just sitting in my computer. My longtime friend, Fred Weinberg, heard it and told me someone wanted to use it in a film he was directing called, "South Beach Dreams". Trouble with the demo was.......it was dodgy! I had a week to put together a more presentable version. I was in Vegas at the time this was all happening.....with not a lot of time to spare. THANKFULLY, I was surrounded by a lot of musical talent from the We Will Rock You show and I made the deadline!!! With time to spare!!! A zillion thank you's to Paul for his playing, his studio, and his time. The song made it to the movie. The MOVIE? Well, it made it STRAIGHT to DVD....!!! Oh well.....better luck next time. xxoo Patti Russo, Myspace
THE WRONG THING
Boy:
How do you tell the one you love the wrong thing?
What do you say, and where do you start?
Keeping me up for days, I'm only thinking of one thing
I don't wanna say the wrong thing
And be the one who breaks your heart
With everything that we've been through
Saying the wrong thing will be the hardest thing to do
Whoa oh oh oh
I don't wanna say the wrong thing
Girl:
How do you tell the one you love the wrong thing?
When the right thing to do is tell him the truth?
Tell me, tell me how right now—I'm not a fool
You don't wanna say the wrong thing
But I can see it on you
Boy:
All this time it never crossed my mind
But I walked right through the fire
I don't know why
Girl:
Now you're trying to find the words
Well, I got something to say:
When you saw the fire, you did the wrong thing
You should've walked away
Both: No....
Girl: Don't
Boy: Don't
Girl: Don't say a word
Boy: Don't say a word
Girl: 'Cause I don't wanna hear it
Boy: And I don't wanna say
Both: The wrong thing
Girl: I don't wanna know
Boy: And I don't wanna say
Girl: Don't tell me
Boy: Don't know what to do
Girl: I don't wanna know
Boy: What to say, what to do
Both: Don't wanna say the wrong thing, ooh....
