LYRICS:
I'd like to think like Einstein Know the equal of pi And never need to ask why Why, why boys don't cry Where we go when we die And what's the meaning of life Whatever the weather man's saying we'll follow Sunshine or rain But he'll never tell me How I'll feel tomorrow Pleasure or pain The lessons I'm learning Just leave me burning For more and more I lie awake hoping Jesus ain't joking I'm sure, that he's sure Whatever the weather man's saying we'll follow Sunshine or rain But he'll never tell me How I'll feel tomorrow Pleasure or pain So tell me why the world Keeps on turning, turning And why so many people Are hurting, hurting How we traded honesty For lying, lying 'Cause we're only gonna make it If we're trying, trying You put a man on the moon But you can't save that baby And that pains me You'll make a red rose turn blue But you can't stop us dying Keep trying Whatever the weather man's saying we'll follow Sunshine or rain But he'll never tell me How I'll feel tomorrow Pleasure or pain

When Gabriella Cilmi and Miranda Cooper were working on the lyrics for "Einstein", Gabriella mentioned that she was studying Pi and that she didn't need to know it. "They said, 'You're always asking why you have to do things'. So we put down everything I didn't understand. Like Pi", said Gabriella. Gabriella also remembers that while the two were working on the song they "demolished so much chocolate".

The eerie roll of 'Einstein' points to an abundance of ideas and fearless approach, so Gabriella is quite a find. Pop album releases are often very competent but usually playsafe and you wouldn't want to hear them again and again, but pleasingly there’s more to this girl. Pete Sargeant
