I like this
But when the night is falling
and you cannot find the light
If you feel your dream is dying
Hold tight
You've got the music in you
Don't let go
You've got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You've got a reason to live
Can't forget you only get what you give
Fly high
What's real can't die
You only get what you give
It's the New Radicals "You've Got the Music In You". You know how "Good Music" is always fresh no matter how old it is; like worthwhile Art it always rewards your new attention... well, this song is like that for me, it always generates uplift, particularly the line What's real can't die. Chris Cross' song Sailing is a bit similar in that regard. You know how they say the deep source of comedy is that eventually we all die and that's the big joke we all know about deep down. On that cheery note ......

"Tears In Heaven"
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven
Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven
Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please
(instrumental)
Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure.
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Clapton
The early 1990s saw tragedy enter Clapton's life again on two occasions. On 27 August 1990, fellow guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan, who was touring with Clapton, and two members of their road crew were killed in a helicopter crash between concerts.
Then, on 20 March 1991 at 11:00 a.m., Conor, who was four years of age, died when he fell from the 53rd-story window of his mother's friend's New York City apartment, landing on the roof of an adjacent four-story building. Clapton's grief was expressed in the song "Tears in Heaven" (on the soundtrack to the 1991 movie Rush), and "Circus". The song was co-written by Will Jennings. He received a total of six Grammys that year for the single "Tears in Heaven" and the Unplugged album.
n,
this is probably my favourite Clapton .. (about his boy who died young - 4 years)
but I think I heard he refuses to play it in public anymore....
Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
RiffRaff: It's astounding;
Time is fleeting;
Madness takes its toll.
But listen closely...
Magenta: Not for very much longer.
RiffRaff: I've got to keep control.
I remember doing the time-warp
Drinking those moments when
The Blackness would hit me
Magenta: And the void would be calling...
Transylvanians: Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Narrator: It's just a jump to the left.
All: And then a step to the right.
Narrator: Put your hands on your hips.
All: You bring your knees in tight.
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Magenta: It's so dreamy, oh fantasy free me.
So you can't see me, no, not at all.
In another dimension, with
voyeuristic intention,
Well secluded, I see all.
RiffRaff: With a bit of a mind flip
Magenta: You're into the time slip.
RiffRaff: And nothing can ever be the same.
Magenta: You're spaced out on sensation.
RiffRaff: Like you're under sedation.
All: Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Columbia: Well I was walking down the street
just a-having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an
evil wink.
He shook-a me up, he took me by surprise.
He had a pickup truck, and the
devil's eyes.
He stared at me and I felt a change.
Time meant nothing, never would again.
All: Let's do the time-warp again.

Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
I do not have a particular favourite song or lyrics. I tis often just how I feel on a day or the sounds of the song itself.
Like today I like listening to this 1:
Steely Dan- Deacon Blues

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joni_Mitchell
And so, after leaving art college in June 1964, Joan Anderson (Joni Mitchell) left her home in Saskatoon to relocate to Toronto. Joni also found out that she was pregnant by her college ex-boyfriend, and in February 1965 she gave birth to a baby girl. A few weeks after the birth, Joni married folk-singer Chuck Mitchell, and took his surname. He promised to help take responsibility for the child but something changed, and a few weeks later Joni gave her daughter, Kelly Dale Anderson, up for adoption.
The experience remained private for most of her career, but she made allusions to it in several songs, most notably the song "Little Green" (from Blue), and, years later, the song "Chinese Cafe" from Wild Things Run Fast ("Your kids are coming up straight/My child's a stranger/I bore her/But I could not raise her"). Her daughter, renamed Kilauren Gibb, began a search for her as an adult, and the two were reunited in 1997. [5]
yep she rocks -
hey can you say that about jazz singers?
Don't worry, be happy!
LOL is that you snowman?
Yup its 's a good song-good band anyhow...
catchy tune that...
hello natashia
I sure is me frosty from HotCopper.
I am glad you liked the song. I read your comment in reply to me from the other site. Unfortunately I could not respond. I wish you well.
How did you get to post the song if you were suspended?
Well I must have been suspended just after I posted the song. I was in the middle of listening to the song and when I came back to post yet another song I noticed my ability to do so was blocked. I will not go into the details as to why but I am innocent of all charges . As a result I may not use that site much or at all anymore. This site seems good and it is well presented and has good functions to use.
I give the second song now I was going to post yesterday. I think you'll
know it as you say the band is a goody
Aja - Steely Dan
