peach,he sings are very sad and moving.
The song for you....
Some Dreams ¡ª Allan Taylor
Some dreams are big, some dreams are small
Some dreams are carried away on the wind and never dreamed at all
Some dreams tell lies, some dreams come true
I've got a whole lot of dreams and I can dream for you
If not for me, if not for you
I'd be dreaming all day I wouldn't know what to do
I'd hang around, I'd lose my way
I'd put off what I couldn't do for another day
Some dreams are big, some dreams are small
Some dreams are carried away on the wind and never dreamed at all
Some dreams tell lies, some dreams come true
I've got a whole lot of dreams and I can dream for you
I've spent my life hung up on dreams
I float along like a summer cloud or so it seems
I get it wrong most things I do
But I can write a song and this one's for you
Some dreams are big, some dreams are small
Some dreams are carried away on the wind and never dreamed at all
Some dreams tell lies, some dreams come true
I've got a whole lot of dreams and I can dream for you
Some call it fate, some call it chance
Some call waiting around for someone to ask you to dance
If I had my way, if I could call the tune
You wouldn't have to wait 'cause I would dance you around the moon
Some dreams are big, some dreams are small
Some dreams are carried away on the wind and never dreamed at all
Some dreams tell lies, some dreams come true
I've got a whole lot of dreams and I can dream for you
I've got a whole lot of dreams and I can dream for you

kate, that is beautiful, I am not familiar with his music. THis one is lovely.
This song was originally written by Bob Dylan, my favorite version was sung by George Harrison, sadly I think his vast talent was overshadowed by Messrs Lennon and McCartney, through no fault of his own. It's called If Not For You.
If not for you,
Babe, I couldnt find the door,
Couldnt even see the floor,
Id be sad and blue,
If not for you.
If not for you,
Babe, Id lay awake all night,
Wait for the mornin light
To shine in through,
But it would not be new,
If not for you.
If not for you
My sky would fall,
Rain would gather too.
Without your love Id be nowhere at all,
Id be lost if not for you,
And you know its true.
If not for you
My sky would fall,
Rain would gather too.
Without your love Id be nowhere at all,
Oh! what would I do
If not for you.
If not for you,
Winter would have no spring,
Couldnt hear the robin sing,
I just wouldnt have a clue,
Anyway it wouldnt ring true,
If not for you.

Smoke Gets In Your Eyes
They ask me how I knew
My true love was true
Ah I of course replied
Something here inside can not be denied
They said someday you¡äll find
All who love are blind
Ah when your hearts on fire
You must realize
Somke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed them
And I gayly laughed to think they could doubt my love
Yet today my love has flown away
I am without my love
Now laughing friends deride tears
I cann¡ät hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
They ask me how I knew
My true love was true
Ah I of course replied
Something here inside can not be denied
They said someday you¡äll find
All who love are blind
Ah when your hearts on fire
You must realize
Somke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed them
And I gayly laughed to think they could doubt my love
Yet today my love has flown away
I am without my love
Now laughing friends deride tears
I cann¡ät hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes

Italy earthquake www.adnkronos.com/AKI/English/Security/?id=3.0.2845611971I just believe love. truth and mercy....I like the boy's voice. Amazing Grace Declan Galbraith That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found; Was blind, but now I see. ¡¯Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; ¡¯Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. The Lord has promised good to me, His Word my hope secures; He will my Shield and Portion be, As long as life endures. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease, I shall possess, within the veil, A life of joy and peace. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow, The sun forbear to shine; But God, Who called me here below, Shall be forever mine. When we¡¯ve been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We¡¯ve no less days to sing God¡¯s praise Than when we¡¯d first begun. |

and now for something completely different. I love Elvis (costello and presley) this is from the former, saw him do this on Saturday Night Live, after the censors tried to stop him. Way to go Elvis.
Radio, Radio
was tuning in the shine on the light night dial
Doing anything my radio advised
With every one of those late night stations
Playing songs bringing tears to my eyes
I was seriously thinking about hiding the receiver
When the switch broke 'cause it's old
They're saying things that I can hardly believe
They really think we're getting out of control
(CHORUS) Radio is a sound salvation
Radio is cleaning up the nation
They say you better listen to the voice of reason
But they don't give you any choice 'cause they think that it's treason
So you had better do as you are told
You better listen to the radio
I wanna bite the hand that feeds me
I wanna bite that hand so badly
I want to make them wish they'd never seen me
Some of my friends sit around every evening
And they worry about the times ahead
But everybody else is overwhelmed by indifference
And the promise of an early bed
You either shut up or get cut up, they don't wanna hear about it
It's only inches on the reel-to-reel
And the radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools
Tryin' to anaesthetise the way that you feel
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Wonderful radio
Marvelous radio
Wonderful radio
Radio, radio
(FADE)

and for another 180, this should always be sung in Italian, to our non Italian speaking friends on this board I have also included them in English, BTW should ONLY be sung by Pavarotti too!
Luciano Pavarotti
Nessun Dorma
ITALIAN
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, Principessa,
nella tua fredda stanza,
guardi le stelle
che tremano d'amore
e di speranza.
Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me,
il nome mio nessun sapr No, no, sulla tua bocca lo dir quando la luce splender
Ed il mio bacio sciogliera il silenzio
che ti fa mia!
(Il nome suo nessun sapr..
e noi dovrem, ahim?morir!)
Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincerr vincerincerr
ENGLISH
No-one sleeps....no-one sleeps,
Even you, O Princess,
in your cold room,
Watch the stars
which tremble with love
and hope!
But my secret is locked within me,
no-one shall know my name!
No, no, I shall say it on your mouth
when the light breaks!
And my kiss will break the silence
that makes you mine!
(No-one shall know his name,
and we, alas, shall die!)
Vanish, o night!
Set, ye stars!
At dawn I shall win!

I liked this song even before I saw Reservoir Dogs, and sadly or darkly every time I hear it that scene comes to mind. I like this b/c the clown that's referenced in it is none other than Billy Connelly. It's "Stuck in the Middle With You" by Steelers Wheel.
Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
And I'm wondering what it is I should do,
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place,
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.
Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....
Trying to make some sense of it all,
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
'Cause I don't think that I can take anymore
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.
Well you started out with nothing,
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please.... Please.....
Well I don't know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain't right,
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you,
Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you,
Stuck in the middle with you.

Rain Child (Max Webster)
written and sung byTerry Watkinson
low by the lake where the willow stands
Ruby sits upon the sands
watching castles wash away
with no one to know
no one to know
locked in you there's a shade of blue
no one ever really knew
locked in you there's a restless wind
with no where to go
no where to blow
Ruby cries for her lost surprise
stormy thunder eyes
Ruby rain child
Ruby run from the hunter's gun
from the searching sun
Ruby rain child
low by the lake where the willow stands
Ruby sits upon the sands
splash in the stream of a daring dream
wail the waste of yesterday
watch your castles wash away
with no one to know
no one to know

In Your Eyes
(Peter Gabriel)
love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes
love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes

one of the songs I sing...
Love Theme (Kissing You)
Romeo & Juliet Soundtrack
Des'ree
Pride can stand a thousand trials,
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you,
My soul cries.
Heaving heart is full of pain,
Oh, oh, the aching.
'Cause I'm kissing you, oh.
I'm kissing you, oh.
Touch me deep, pure and true,
Gift to me forever
'Cause I'm kissing you, oh.
I'm kissing you, oh.
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
'Cause I'm kissing you.
I'm kissing you, oh.

I'm listening all of them, so great~~~!!!
Who can tell me the song came from which show?
Beyond The Night
Beyond the night, a rising sun
Beyond the night, the battle's won
The battle is won.
Fear and shame now in the past
Pain and sorrow gone at last
Gone at last.
Circle renewed, peace will be found
Beyond the night on sacred ground.
River flows led by the wind
First new breath, our journey begins
Our journey begins.

Lyrics and Music by Vittoria © 2006
Order In Chaos
I will hold you through the blustering storm and
through the black clouds, whirlwind growing stronger
I will hold you when the sky is falling in on you
And nothing’s making sense
I will free you when you need your space and
through the silence, I’ll be quietly waiting
When you call me I will run to you and kiss you tenderly
Cos everythin’s alright
Cos everythin’s alright
So, what do we do love
when lightning flashes?
So, what do we do love
When the walls come crashing in
I will see you as I see you now and
When you’re famous and the players come knocking
I will see through all their faint disguise, reminding you
That they’ll never knock you down
I will give you all I own to give and
You will wonder why you took so long then
You will call me something that I’ll never be
And you’ll understand my frailty
Please understand my frailty.
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Grant me patience and I’ll return the kindness
When it seems like it’s gonna be over
Never cease love, no never cease believing
In the strength and truth of love
In the strength and truth of love
You will hold me through the blinding darkness
You will see me as you did before the storm
Nothings’ changing, nothing’s changing but our honesty
In the nakedness of purity
In the nakedness of purity
Order in chaos… repeat

Lyrics by Vittoria © 2006
Solace
Sometimes I feel me slipping away from you
Coz demons have no place in Heaven
I have no concept of what day it is
I can only cry my heart for mercy
To take me there - Because you're there
Because you're there
I have been dreaming of a home somewhere
Forever wandering through this desert
My heart is bleeding with my love for you
Your arms my only safest haven
So bring me there - My Heaven's there
My Heaven's there
An ocean separates us- Through only temporary pain
You are all I need, Love- I feel I live some fated dream
So bring me home My Love- And give me shelter from this storm
And let me be the place
You too find solace in
Just bring me home, My Love And give me shelter from this storm
And let me be the place you too find solace in
I give you all of me- Surrendering my darkest fears
I trust you with my heart
The shattered pieces finally whole
So far away yet I can feel you here
Your presence always with my soul
Beyond the time and space that others feel
Yet I can't hold you in my arms
Coz you're not here - I need you here
No you're not here
I hope my love for you is all you need
I was so broken I was blind
But you have opened up my eyes to love
Together we will find our solace now
We will be there - We will be here …. We will be here
