from wiki:
"I'm a Believer" is a song composed by Neil
Diamond and recorded by the band The Monkees
in 1966 with the lead vocals by Micky Dolenz.
The single, produced by Jeff Barry, hit the
number one spot on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100
chart on December 31, 1966 and remained there
for seven weeks, becoming the biggest-selling
record for all of 1967, and one of the
biggest of all time. Because of advance
orders, it went gold within two days of
release.
Neil Diamond had already recorded this song
before it was covered by the Monkees, and it
still sometimes appears in his live concerts.
This song was later covered by Smash Mouth
and Eddie Murphy in 2001, as part of the
soundtrack to the movie Shrek (the band also
released the song on its self-titled album).
Eddie Murphy, portraying the character
"Donkey", also performed a rendition of the
song in the film. The song was chosen for its
opening line, "I thought love was only true
in fairy tales," which matched the fairy tale
motif of the film. "I'm a Believer" was a hit
for both The Monkees and Smash Mouth.
A revised recording by Neil Diamond,
featuring additional lyrics, appears on the
album September Morn, whilst his original
recording can be found on several albums,
including his greatest hits album, The
Essential Neil Diamond. A cover by British
singer-songwriter Robert Wyatt was an
unlikely hit in the UK in 1974. In 1995,
British comedian Vic Reeves teamed up with
then-popular band EMF for a version which
reached #3 on the UK singles chart; this
cover is notable for its semi-comic inclusion
of three solo drumbeats and a shout of "Oi!"
between the first and second lines of the
first and second verses. This addition to the
song has permeated popular culture in the UK
to the extent that it has become almost
impossible for the original version to be
played in public without the audience adding
their own "Oi!". A nod to this version is
included in Shrek; though the "Oi!" does not
appear in any album version of Smash Mouth's
cover, it is inserted into the song when it
is played in the film's finale, shouted by
Snow White's Seven Dwarfs.

UPDATE - Aug. 29th: I spent most of the
morning tweaking the mp3 to hear his voice
more.. to get some words out of it. Here's
what I've come up with:
this time
he told you to hold on
look back on anything
even every moment that you remember
promise that you hold
hold on to that moment
and leave the battles uncovered
and walk away.
i want you to stay
i want you to believe
i want you to win the battles that are before
you
will you stay?
you're running away now
you search yourself
even then stories that i re-tell
and now from yesterday
it could have gone away
i want you to stay
i want you to believe
i want you to win the battles that are given
to you
don't you want to stay!
Stay
Stay,oh
Stay,oh oh oh
Won't you
i want you to stay
even if you don't believe
so when you come across the battles that
you're given
don't you care
believe
I want you to believe
i want to believe
i'll always remember you

**soundcheck recording of what I think is The
Believer. Please forgive for the sound
quality. Even though the quality isn't
great, you can tell just how beautiful the
song is. And by the end of next week 30
Seconds To Mars will be making a HUGE
announcement.(and if you're on the boards,
you already know what it is)
