I’ve Just Seen a FaceJim Sturgess

Songwriter: Paul McCartney John Lennon Lennon-McCartney

[JUDE]
I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place where we just met
She's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see we've met
Mm mm mm mm mm mm

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware
But as it is I'll dream of her tonight
Di di di di di di

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
Me back again

I have never known the like of this
I've been alone and I have missed things
And kept out of sight
For other girls were never quite like this
Mm mm mm mm mm mm

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
Me back again

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
Me back again

Falling, yes I am falling
And she keeps calling
Me back again

Falling (yes he is falling)
And she keeps calling
Me back again

Jim Sturgess

Jim Sturgess is an English actor and singer-songwriter. Sturgess was born May 16, 1978. He is most popularly known for his role in the 2007 musical romance drama, Across the Universe in which Sturgess played the main role of Jude. He is also credited with the role of Ben Campbell in the film 21. Born in Wandsworth, London, he was raised in Farnham, Surrey. There he went to Frensham Heights School. He spent most of his youth skateboarding around his local car parks and started his first band as early as 15 years old where they would rehearse in the garage of his friend’s dad’s house. The band would also play gigs in and around his local area to any publican who would turn a blind eye to the fact that they were all under age. Sturgess’s first acting experience came when the local theatre group came to his school looking for children to audition for the local play. Quickly realising that he would be able to miss school, he went along to the audition and landed one of the parts in the play. It was clear to both his school and his parents that he had a natural talent, but it was always music rather than acting that was at the forefront of Sturgess’s mind.

Sturgess moved to Manchester to attend Salford University hoping it would enable him to start another band and hang around the Manchester music scene, where most of his music idols were from. In Manchester, he fell-in with a group of aspiring actors and film-makers, and his passion for acting was re-ignited. He started to write and perform his own short films and plays. While performing his one-person show ‘BUZZIN’, based around his performance poetry, Jim was discovered by an acting agent. He graduated from the University of Salford in 1999 with an HND in Media and Performance.

In 2007, he got his big break when he was cast in Julie Taymor’s musical Across the Universe, portraying Jude Feeny, a young man who travels to the US amid the raging throes of the late 1960s and falls in love with a sheltered American teenager, Lucy, played by Evan Rachel Wood.
