Billie Holiday – God Bless the Child Lyrics 21 years ago
Beautiful song, beautiful perspective.

"Money, you’ve got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you’re gone, spending ends
They don’t come no more"

*sigh

Diana Krall – Dancing In The Dark Lyrics 21 years ago
I hear this song, close my eyes and think of an empty ballroom, disappointed faces, scenes of lovers in a park. . .

"Dancing in the dark 'til the tune ends
We're dancing in the dark and it soon ends
We're waltzing in the wonder of why we're here
Time hurries by, we're here and we're gone"

Eternally loved, indefinitely embraced. Unaware of time, completely engulfed in the moment, completely aware of time, never wanting the night to end. . . bittersweet. *sigh. Must be nice to have a love that heavy. . . beautiful song. *Jane Monheit has the better version; very emotional

Tony Bennett – The Best Is Yet To Come Lyrics 21 years ago
"Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum; you came along and everything started to hum". . .

The girl he sings for, is personified by the plum. He "picked" someone beautiful; the song is about anticipation - how great life will be when these two are together.

John Legend – Ordinary People Lyrics 21 years ago
Beautiful song; about not knowing which route to take, which path to follow, but understanding that you're human, that life doesn't always bring good things - and that's the beauty of it - you don't have all the answers. Gotta live and learn.
