What's Your Favorite Song?

[joyshirley]

It's hard to choose just one song, but this is one of my all-time favourite songs, as sung by Roberta Flack. I love the melody and the way Roberta sings this song.

​

Killing Me Softly With His Song ..... Roberta Flack​

​

Strumming my pain with his fingers​

Singing my life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song​

Killing me softly with his song​

Telling my whole life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song ... ​

​

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style​

And so I came to see him to listen for a while​

And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes​

Strumming my pain with his fingers​

Singing my life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song​

Killing me softly with his song​

Telling my whole life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song ... ​

​

I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd​

I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud​

I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on ...​

Strumming my pain with his fingers​

Singing my life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song​

Killing me softly with his song​

Telling my whole life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song ... ​

​

He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair​

And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there​

But he just came to singing, singing clear and strong​

Strumming my pain with his fingers​

Singing my life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song​

Killing me softly with his song​

Telling my whole life with his words​

Killing me softly with his song ...​

Scott Matthew - Be Human

it's a song off the soundtrack of the anime series Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. aside from the unique music, the lyrics are what sets it apart from the rest.

I analyze and I verify and I quantify enough
100 percentile no errors no miss
I synchronize and I specialize and I classify so much
Don't worry 'bout dreaming because I don't sleep --

I wish I could at least 30 percent
Maybe 50 for pleasure then skip all the rest

If I only was more human
I would count every single second the rest of my life
If I just could be more human
I'd have so many little babies and maybe a wife

I'd roll around in mud and have lots of fun then when I was done
Build bubblebath towers and swim in the tub
Sand Castles on the beach, frolick in the sea, get a broken knee
Be scared of the dark and I'd sing out of key

Curse when I lost a fight, kiss and reunite, scratch a spider's bite
Be happy with wrinkles I got when I smile
Pet kittens 'till they purred, maybe keep a bird, always keep my word
I'd cry at sad movies and laugh 'till it hurt

I'd buy a big bike, I'd ride by the lake
And I'd have lots of friends and I'd stay out too late

If I could just be more human
I would see every little thing with a gleam in my eye
If only I was more human
I'd embrace every single feeling that came in my life

Would I care and be forgiving?
Would I be sentimental and would I feel loneliness?

Would I doubt and have misgivings?
Would I cause someone sorrow too? Would I know what to do?

Will I cry when its all over?

When I die will I see Heaven?

I have too many to mention- it would be hard to narrow it down to even a top 10...

Massive Attack - Teardrop

love)love is a verb
love is a doing word
feathers on my breath
gentle impulsion
shakes me makes me lighter
feathers on my breath

teardrop on the fire
feathers on my breath

in the night of matter
black flowers blossom
feathers on my breath
black flowers blossom
feathers on my breath

teardrop on the fire
feathers on my breath

water is my eye
most faithful my love
feathers on my breath
teardrop on the fire of a confession
feathers on my breath
most faithful my love
feathers on my breath

teardrop on the fire
feathers on my breath

stumbling a little

 

[white_frog914]

My favourite song at the moment is : Blue and Yellow by the Used

Should've done something, but I've done it enough.
By the way, your hands were shaking,
Rather waste some time with you.

But my favourite song of all time is Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something

 

[HisWinterRose]

Oh my goodness I have so many that I like it's hard to say ....

* Celeion Deion - My Heart Will Go On
* The Way We Were - Barbara Streistand
* Anything by Chicago - Color My World
* The Carpenter's

There are more ... but I will have to sit down & figure it out & come back again and post them !!

Dear loved one, please listen, this might be the last chance I get, I'm sorry I left you, I'm

BRYAN ADAMS lyrics - "Summer Of '69"

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
It was the summer of '69

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit and Jody got married
I shoulda known we'd never get far
Oh when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Ya - I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69

Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever - forever, no

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about ya wonder what went wrong

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me it would last forever
Oh the way you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69

and my other fav song, im obssesed wit this song, ONE OF THE GREATEST METAL BANDS IN THE WORLD

ACCEPT - Losing More Than You've Ever Had

Man, I know that you're out in the crowd
And I feel how you burn your hate in my soul
It's like I'd have my hand in your coat
And feel the stainless steel of a sword

Years have gone by, I know that she's left you
Before I passed by
I was collecting the dreams of her heart
And then she was reborn in my arms

Can't you see that you've lost her soul
She's been gone a long time ago
Man - it's been a long time since you've lost her heart
Yes - it's been a long time since you've lost her heart

Man you're dying for what you've lost but never had
Cause you've been losing more than you have ever had
Man stop longing for the girl you made so sad
Always losing for so long - for so long

Man, why are you running blind for the past
Why don't you try to understand
When I found her she was dying
Trying to kill herself

Maybe you didn't know what you've done
But all you wanna do is wrong
Man, you came to kill for someone who's gone
Man, it's been a long time since you've lost her heart

Man you're dying for what you've lost but never had
Cause you've been losing more than you have ever had
Man stop longing for the girl you made so sad
Always losing for so long - for so long

Man, it's been a long time since you've lost her heart
Man, it's been a long time since you've lost her heart

I love "Vincent" by Don Maclean


"starry starry Night , paint your pallet ...................."

 

[Zoomer]

Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... don’t live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you’ll find love,
And don’t forget son,
There is someone up above.

(chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won’t you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich man’s gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(chorus)

Boy, don’t you worry... you’ll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
