| Les Misérables – A Little Fall Of Rain Lyrics | 12 years ago |

Worth remembering that the song is from the musical and not the book; there will undoubtedly be some differences in the presentation and tone of the theames. Also, of course, music and musicals are often deeply personal things and open to interpretation, whether they have a classical origin or not. By the way, thanks for providing the link to the excerpt from the book, a deeply touching peice of prose from a master at the top of his game. For me, this song is a real heart-breaker. Anyone who has seen the musical will have felt Eponine's pain. Samantha Barks did a great job with translating this to film too but it's never as good as seeing it on stage. It has a beautiful melody and such desperately lovely lyrics; each time I hear it, it truely moves me. |

| Rainbow – Can't Happen Here Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| This song is as relevant today as it was when it was first recorded, not much has changed. I just wish they still wrote 'em like this, it absolutely rocks! Joe Lynn Turner on lead vocals provided the magic ingrediant for Rainbow and the albums they released with him in the line up contain some of the best heavy rock tracks ever recorded IMHO. | |

| Muse – Blackout Lyrics | 20 years ago |

A thing of beauty is rare indeed but I think we have found it here. There is a pain borne of loss that I feel when I hear this song, reminds me of when I lost someone close to me. There can be a certain dignity in loss, and the music here illustrates it for me. Undertones of Laurence of Arabia in this track and anyone who has ever looked into a desert (be it metaphorical or actual) should be able to get a sence of eternity from this track. The lyrics are sheer poetry. Read them out load without the music and I challenge you to feel unmoved. Beautifull. |
