edna Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Cry, baby, cry... In the Ghetto As the snow flies On a cold and gray chicago mornin A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries cause if theres one thing that she dont need Its another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto People, dont you understand The child needs a helping hand Or hell grow to be an angry young man some day Take a look at you and me, Are we too blind to see, Do we simply turn our heads And look the other way Well the world turns And a hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto And his hunger burns So he starts to roam the streets at night And he learns how to steal And he learns how to fight In the ghetto Then one night in desperation A young man breaks away He buys a gun, steals a car, Tries to run, but he dont get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto As her young man dies, On a cold and gray chicago mornin, Another little baby child is born In the ghetto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanAm Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 We Have All Time In The World - John Barry (Instrumental) I Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt Rhythm Of The Blues - Mary Chapin Carpenter I Go Crazy - Paul Davis Some Enchanted Evening - Jane Olivor You're The One I Love - Jane Olivor My Love Is Gone From Me - Ed Ames Stranger In Paradise- the original cast recording from Kismet, although almost any decent rendition will do it Culloden's Harvest - Deanta. An Irish group singing about one of the blackest days in Scottish history. Feed The Birds - Julie Andrews. I believe this was Walt Disney's favourite song from any Disney movie. I'm omitting a plethora of classical selections which never fail to make me misty-eyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Feed The Birds - Julie Andrews. I believe this was Walt Disney's favourite song from any Disney movie. I love this song, CanAm! My best friend of over 25 years and I were obsessed with "Mary Poppins". Every so often, she'll call me and sing "Feed the Birds" on my answering machine. Nothing gives me greater pleasure than to come home from a long day and hear her warbling off-key: "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag, tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag..."

Sue866 Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 #1 Saddest song I've ever heard - Hollie Smith - "Fallen Flowers" lyrics: If I could roll back the years If I could see through these tears If I could face all of my fears And, if I could live my life again And, if I could life, again If I culd call the world my friend If I could write the story's end...I would I'd live a thousand years of pain Just to hold you once...again. Hollie Smith sings in duet with Steve McDonald. An awesome ethereal and gorgeous song. I think it is THE saddest song I've ever heard. I share this one often. It is written about a young fallen soldier and how he wishes to be with his mom again and vice versa. I tear up every time. The rest aren't necessarily in order... #2 Alan Parsons Project - "Old and Wise" lyrics: And to those I left behind I wanted you to Know You've always shared my deepest thoughts You follow where I go #3 Kate Bush - "This Woman's Work" lyrics: I should be crying But I just can't let it show I should be hoping But I can't stop thinking All the things I should've said That I never said All the things we should of done That we never did All the things I should've given But I didn't Oh darling make it go Make it go away #4 William's Brothers - "Can't Cry Hard Enough" lyrics: I'm gonna live my life like every days' the last without a simple goodbye it all goes by so fast and now that you're gone I can't cry heard enough I can't cry hard enough for you to hear me now #5 Pirates of the Mississippi - "Feed Jake" lyrics: Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I die before I wake, feed Jake, he's been a good dog, My best friend right through it all, if I die before I wake, Feed Jake #6 Johnny Cash - "Hurt" Too well-known for lyrics. *sniff* #7 Chris Isaak - "Pretty Paper" (cover of Roy Orbison's tune) lyrics: Crowded street, busy feet hustle by him Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh There he sits all alone on the sidewalk He's just hoping he won't pass him by Should I stop? Better not, much too busy I'm in a hurry, my how time does fly And in the distance the ringing of laughter And in the midst of the laughter he cries #8 Steve McDonald - "I Will Return" lyrics: And I will die in your arms And all my sorrow, will be gone. And all the things in my life, I held so dear, must leave me now. But I will live on Long, after the silence, Ends the song. #9 Diamond Rio - "You're Gone" lyrics: Now I know God has His reasons But sometimes it's hard to see them When I awake and find that you're not there You found hope in hopeless You made crazy sane You became the missing link That helped me break my chains And I bless the day I met you And I thank God that He let you Lay beside me for a moment that lives on And the good news is I'm better For the time we spent together And the bad news is you're gone The bad news is you're gone #10 Jeff Carson - "The Car" lyrics: Boy I'd love to have that car, I whispered to my dad. I always heard a mustang flies. We could fix it up, and make it new again all it needs is just a little time daddy's hardly ever home, since mama passed away he's always workin over time i know that he cannot afford to buy that car even though, he'd love to make it mine Its not the car that I'm needin just the chance to be with him I know once these days roll past us, they will never come again. so little time, we spend way to much apart there will always be a part of us together in that car Finally I let go of that dream, the time we could have shared. It was a distant memory, til last fall a call came sayin dad was gone could I come quick, he left a note for me. Buried Dad right next to Ma up on Coleys ridge there I said my last "goodbye" I opened up the note, and found a set a keys here's your car son, I hope it flies Its not the car that I'm needin its the chance to be with you I hope you'll understand I always did the best that I could do so little time, we spent way to much apart there will always be a part of us.... together in that car Some instrumentals that make me tear up: Bruce Rowland - "Hero To A Nation" Bruce Rowland wrote the score to my all-time favorite movie, Phar Lap about a famous Aussie racehorse. I've loved that movie since I was 7 years old (when the movie came out). This music is gorgeous and always invokes the emotions the end of the film gives. It's a tribute song. Bruce also wrote the score for the movie Man From Snowy River - another horse movie favorite. Mychael Danna & Jeff Danna - "The Child Deirdre" A melancholy celtic tune. ERA - "Sombre Day" & "I Believe" Here are two somber instrumentals by one of my very favorite artists. Both are gorgeous haunting tunes. Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard - "Now We Are Free" Since it's not in English, I put it in the instrumentals. This Epic song from the movie Gladiator moves me every time.

Sweet Jane 61 Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Beautiful In My Eyes ~ Joshua Kadison You're my peace of mind in this crazy world. You're everything I've tried to find, your love is a pearl. You're my Mona Lisa, you're my rainbow skies, and my only prayer is that you realize you'll always be beautiful in my eyes. The world will turn and the seasons will change, and all the lessons we will learn will be beautiful and strange. We'll have our fill of tears, our share of sighs. My only prayer is that you realize you'll always be beautiful in my eyes. You will always be beautiful in my eyes. And the passing years will show that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes. When there are lines upon my face from a lifetime of smiles, and when the time comes to embrace for one long last while, we can laugh about how time really flies. We won't say goodbye 'cause true love never dies. You'll always be beautiful in my eyes. You will always be beautiful in my eyes. And the passing years will show that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes. The passing years will show that you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes. Everytime I catch it on the radio, it gets some tears. Just touching song and at one time a guy I was dating would sing it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
