Ok, Madonnna, it shall be then,,,, 

Madonna - Cherish

 

 

So tired of broken hearts and losing at this game

Before I start this dance

I take a chance in telling you

I want more than just romance

You are my destiny

I can't let go

Baby can't you see

Cupid, please take your aim at me

 

Cherish the thought

Of always having you here by my side

(Oh baby I) cherish the joy

You keep bringing it into my life

(I'm always singing it)

Cherish the strength

You got the power to make me feel good

(And baby I) perish the thought

Of ever leaving

I never would

 

I was never satisfied with casual encounters

I can't hide my need for two hearts that bleed

With burning love

That's the way it's got to be

Romeo and Juliet they never felt this way I bet

So don't underestimate my point of view

 

Cherish the thought

Of always having you here by my side

(Oh baby I) cherish the joy

You keep bringing it into my life

(I'm always singing it)

Cherish the strength

You got the power to make me feel good

(And baby I) perish the thought

Of ever leaving

I never would

 

Who? You!

Can't get away, I won't let you

Who? You!

I could never forget to

Cherish is the word I use to remind me of

Your love

 

(You're givin' it

You're givin' it to me boy

Keep giving me all-all-all your joy

Give me faith

I will always cherish you)

 

Romeo and Juliet they never felt this way I bet

So don't underestimate my point of view

 

Who? You!

Can't get away, I won't let you

Who? You!

I could never forget to

Cherish is the word I use to remind me of

Your love

 

Cherish the thought

Of always having you here by my side

(Oh baby I) cherish the joy

You keep bringing it into my life

(I'm always singing it)

Cherish your strength

You got the power to make me feel good

(And baby I) perish the thought

Of ever leaving

I never would

 

Cherish

Give me faith

Give me joy, my boy

I will always cherish you

Give me faith

Give me joy, my boy

I will always cherish you

 

Cherish your strength

(You're givin' it, you're givin' it to me boy)

(Can't get away, I won't let you)

(Keep giving me all your joy)

Perish the thought

(You're givin' it, you're givin' it to me boy)

(I could never forget to)

(Keep giving me all your joy)

 

Cherish the thought

(Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)

(Can't get away, can't get away)

Cherish the joy

(Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)

(Can't get away, can't get away)

Cherish your strength

(You're givin' it to me boy,

keep giving me all your joy)

(Can't get away, can't get away)

Perish the thought

(You're givin' it to me boy,

keep giving me all your joy)

(Can't get away, can't get away)

 

Cherish the thought

(Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)

(Can't get away, can't get away)

Cherish the joy

(Give me faith, give me joy, my boy I will always cherish you)

(Can't get away, can't get away)

"The Eagle Will Rise Again" - Alan Parsons Project

 

And I could easily fall from grace

Then another would take my place

For the chance to behold your face

 

And the days of my life are but grains of sand

As they fall from your open hand

At the call of the wind's command

 

Many words are spoken when there's nothing to say

They fall upon the ears of those who don't know the way

To read between the lines, that lead between the lines

That lead me to you

 

All that I ask you

Is show me how to follow you and I'll obey

Teach me how to reach you I can't find my own way

Let me see the light, let me be the light

 

As the sun turns slowly around the sky

Till the shadow of night is high

The eagle will learn to fly

 

And the days of this life are but grains of sand

As they fall from your open hand

And vanish upon the land

 

Many words are spoken when there's nothing to say

They fall upon the ears of those who don't know the way

To read between the lines by following the signs

That can lead to you

 

Show me how to follow you and I'll obey

Teach me how to reach you I can't find my own way

Let me see the light, let me be the light

 

And so, with no warning, no last goodbye

In the dawn of the morning sky

The eagle will rise again

 

 

[[Lo...]]

Madonna - Live To Tell

 

 

I have a tale to tell

Sometimes it gets so hard to hide it well

I was not ready for the fall

Too blind to see the writing on the wall

 

[Chorus:]

 

A man can tell a thousand lies

I've learned my lesson well

Hope I live to tell

The secret I have learned, 'till then

It will burn inside of me

 

I know where beauty lives

I've seen it once, I know the warm she gives

The light that you could never see

It shines inside, you can't take that from me

 

[chorus]

 

[2nd Chorus:]

 

The truth is never far behind

You kept it hidden well

If I live to tell

The secret I knew then

Will I ever have the chance again

 

If I ran away, I'd never have the strength

To go very far

How would they hear the beating of my heart

Will it grow cold

The secret that I hide, will I grow old

How will they hear

When will they learn

How will they know

 

[chorus]

[2nd chorus]

"I Wanna Be Free" - The Monkees

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjtAnumSUCQ

 

I wanna be free

Like the bluebirds flying by me

Like the waves out on the blue sea

If your love has to tie me

Don't try me

Say good-bye

 

I wanna be free

Don't say you love me

Say you like me

But when I need you beside me

Stay close enough to guide me

Confide in me, oh

 

I wanna hold your hand

Walk along the sand

Laughting in the sun

Always having fun

Doing all those things

Without any strings to tie me down

 

I wanna be free

Like the warm September wind, Babe

Say you'll always be my friend, Babe 

We can make it to the end, Babe

 

Again, Babe, I've gotta say

I wanna be free

I wanna be free

I wanna be free

"Run Away" - Sarah Jarosz

 

http://dingo.care2.com/pictures/c2c/share/71/711/111/711112_370.jpg

 

Follow me down through the cotton fields

Moon shadow shine bright the way you will

Lead us down a road where no one goes

We can run away

 

Come take my hand while I'm waiting here

Get away from it all and find what's real

If we don't get out now the chance won't reappear

We can run away

 

[CHORUS:]

Hold me tight and don't let go

Sweet and soft no one will know

We can run away

 

I buried my heart in a willow tree

You came along and gave it back to me

Now we're creatures of the night

We set each other free

Run away with me

 

[CHORUS]

 

Lay with me down by the riverside

Stars in the sky shining in your eyes

We won't make a sound no one will be around

We can run away

 

Hold me tight and don't let go

Sweet and soft no one will know

We can run away

 

We can run away

We can run away

"Echoes In The Dark" - Uriah Heep

https://youtu.be/6vBumfuaBo4

 

I have heard the echoes in the dark

Dim and distant voices of the past

And I've seen so far into the night

And lingered in the land of no light

 

Far beyond the shrouded hours of dawn

Through the mist of daybreak I was born

But the day was clouded still by night

Leaving me in the land of no light

 

Though I'd love to say hello to you

You might have to wait awhile

To say goodbye

For it must end as it began

And then start again

 

The day of darkness comes to every man

And lingers while he reaches out his hand

And he cannot know how it will end

Till he finds out if he has a friend

A friend

 

A friend, friend, friend

Friend

"Birds" - Anouk

 

Isolated from the outside

Clouds have taken all the light

I have no control

It seems my thoughts wander off

Of the time when I tried to

Live life without you

 

Birds falling down the rooftops

Out of the sky like raindrops

No air, no pride

 

If being myself is what I do wrong

Then I would rather not be right

Hope's turned into fear

With my one wing I can't fly

With sunrise embrace my dreams tight

And that's why

 

Birds falling down the rooftops

Out of the sky like raindrops

No air, no pride

Birds

 

To a place without fear with no moonlight

All I need are trees and flowers and some sunlight

Where memories are being made

And where the old one dies

Where love ain't lost

 

Birds falling down the rooftops

Out of the sky like raindrops

Birds falling down the rooftops

Out of the sky like raindrops

No air, no pride

That's why

Birds don't fly

 

    :'(

Kate Nash - Birds

 

 

She was waiting at the station

He was getting off the train

He didn't have a ticket

So he had to bum through the barriers again

 

Well the ticket inspector saw him rushing through

He said "girl you don't know how much I missed you but

We'd better run 'cause I haven't got the funds to pay this fine."

She said "fine"

 

Well so they ran out of the station and jumped onto a bus

With two of yesterdays travel cards and two bottles of bud

And he said "you look well nice"

 

Well she was wearing a skirt

And he thought she looked nice

And yes, she didn't really care about anything else

'Cause she only wanted him to think that she looked nice

And he did

 

But he was looking at her, yeah all funny in the eye

She said "come on boy tell me what you're thinking

Now don't be shy."

He said alright, "I'll try

 

All the stars up in the sky

And the leaves in the trees

All the broken bits that make you jump up

And grassy bits in between

All the matter in the world is how much I like you."

 

She said "what?"

He said "let me try and explain again

 

"Right, birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

And they can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel so scared.

But when you look at them

And you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

 

Right birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head,

And they can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel well scared

But when you look at them

And you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

Yeah that's how I feel about you."

 

She said "what?"

He said "you"

She said "what are you talking about?"

He said "you"

 

Right birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

And they can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel so scared.

But when you look at them

And you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

 

Right birds can fly so high

And they can shit on your head

And they can almost fly into your eye

And make you feel well scared.

But when you look at them

And you see that they're beautiful

That's how I feel about you

Right, that's how I feel about you

 

She said "thanks, I like you too"

He said "cool"

"Another Day" - Paul McCartney  & Wings

https://youtu.be/vH6v9JS26xc

 

Every day she takes a morning bath

She wets her hair

Wraps a towel around her

As she's heading for the bedroom chair

It's just another day

 

Slipping into stockings

Stepping into shoes

Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat

It's just another day

 

At the office where the papers grow

She takes a break

Drinks another coffee

And she finds it hard to stay awake

It's just another day

 

Do do do do do do

It's just another day

Do do do do do do

It's just another day

 

So sad, so sad

Sometimes she feels so sad

 

Alone in her apartment she'd dwell

Till the man of her dreams comes to break the spell

Ah, stay, don't stand her up

And he comes and he stays

But he leaves the next day

So sad, sometimes she feels so sad

 

As she posts another letter to the sound of five

People gather around her

And she finds it hard to stay alive

It's just another day

 

Do do do do do do

It's just another day

Do do do do do do

It's just another day

 

So sad, so sad

Sometimes she feels so sad

 

Alone in her apartment she'd dwell

Till the man of her dreams comes to break the spell

Ah, stay, don't stand her up

And he comes and he stays

But he leaves the next day

So sad, sometimes she feels so sad

 

Every day she takes a morning bath

She wets her hair

Wraps a towel around her

As she's heading for the bedroom chair

It's just another day

 

Slipping into stockings

Stepping into shoes

Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat

It's just another day

 

Do do do do do do

It's just another day

Do do do do do do

It's just another day

[[Lo...]]

Ride - Paralysed

 

 

Catch me in another dream, I'm pulled away

Hold me, gently take me through another day

 

However hard I try, I crawl when I should fly

I wander through my days, pulled a million ways

 

Help me feel the forces I can't touch, I'm reaching out

Help me to learn until I know too much, I'm still without

 

These circles pulling near, hold me in my fear

And sleeping I can't hide, I'm paralysed inside

 

Paralysed, paralysed, paralysed, paralysed

Paralysed, paralysed, paralysed, paralysed

"Let the River Run" - Carly Simon

 

We're coming to the edge

Running on the water

Coming through the fog

Your sons and daughters

 

Let the river run

Let all the dreamers wake the nation

Come the New Jerusalem

 

Silver cities rise

The morning lights

The streets that meet them

And sirens call them on with a song

 

It's asking for the taking

Trembling, shaking

Oh, my heart is aching

 

We're coming to the edge

Running on the water

Coming through the fog

Your sons and daughters

 

We, the great and small

Stand on a star

And blaze a trail of desire

Through the darkening dawn

 

It's asking for the taking

Come run with me now

The sky is the color of blue

You've never even seen

In the eyes of your lover

 

Oh, my heart is aching

We're coming to the edge

Running on the water

Coming through the fog

Your sons and daughters

 

It's asking for the taking

Trembling, shaking

Oh, my heart is aching

 

We're coming to the edge

Running on the water

Coming through the fog

Your sons and daughters

 

Let the river run

Let all the dreamers wake the nation

Come the New Jerusalem

"Runaway" - Jefferson Starship

 

 

You don't know how much I love you

But I love you like the sun

I'd like to put my arms around you

Run, run, run, runaway

Let's run, run, run, runaway

Let's run, run, run runaway

 

If you knew how much I miss you

I miss you more each day

I'd really like to come and see you

And we could run, run, run, runaway

Run, run, run, runaway

Let's run, run, run, runaway

 

Summer's coming and it's getting warmer

Tell me spring is just around the corner

I'm sitting watching all of the flowers

Birds are singing getting louder and louder

 

And here I am missing you

Here I go I'm loving you

Run, run, run, run, running

Here I go I'm wanting you

Run, run, run, run, running

Here I go I'm needing you

Run, run, run, run, running

Here I go I'm loving you

Run, run, run, run, running

Run run, run, run, runaway

 

If you knew how much I need you

Oh, I need you like the air

If someone should take you from me

I would run, run, run, runaway

I'd run, run, run, runaway

Let's run, run, run, runaway

 

Summer's coming and it's getting warmer

Tell me spring is just around the corner

I'm sitting watching all of the flowers

Birds are singing getting louder and louder

 

Here I am missing you

Here I go I'm loving you

Run, run, run, run, running

Here I go I'm wanting you

Run, run, run, run, running

Here I go I'm needing you

Run, run, run, run, running

Here I go I'm loving you

Run, run, run, run, running

Run, run, run, run, runaway

 

Oh now, you don't know how much I love you

But I love you like the sun

I'd like to put my arms around you

We could run, run, run, runaway

 

Come on, baby

Let's run, run, run, runaway

Come on, baby

Let's run, run, run, runaway

 

You don't know how much I want to

Run, run, run, runaway

You don't know how much I need to

Run, run, run, runaway

You don't know how much I love to

Run, run, run, runaway

You don't know how much I'd love to

Run, run, run, runaway

I'd really like to come and see you

Run, run, run, runaway

I really want my arms around you

Run, run, run, runaway

One more time, just one more time

Run, run, run, runaway

Absolutely gorgeous, thanks, Lapsy.  Gone far too young, both him and Maurice ... and Andy.  So sad.  :'(

[[La...]]

I spent a bunch of time last night looking at videos about Robin. I watched that particular one at least three times! What a gorgeous voice he had! It's so sad that he, Maurice and Andy left at such young ages. I think about Barry and what he has to cope with. It must be brutal for him.

[[...]]

Did you catch this one, Lap?  I think he was around 16 when he sang this, I watched and listened to it probably a thousand times, best version I've heard!

 

http://www.benzobuddies.org/forum/index.php?topic=113166.msg2394876;topicseen#msg2394876

 

Do you know of any songs where Maurice sang lead?

 

[[La...]]

Wow! What a cool find, abcd! Love it! His voice is phenomenal! It's so nice to hear him take the lead like that. And no, I'm not well-versed enough in the BeeGees catalogue to know if Maurice ever sang the lead vocals.

"The Final Cut" - Pink Floyd

 

Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes

I can barely define the shape of this moment in time

I'm far from flying high in clear blue skies

I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide

 

If you negotiate the minefield in the drive

And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes

And if you make it past the shotguns in the hall

Dial the combination, open the priest hole

And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall

 

There's a kid who had a big hallucination

Making love to girls in magazines

He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith

Could anybody love him

Or is it just a crazy dream

 

And if I show you my dark side

Will you still hold me tonight

And if I open my heart to you

And show you my weak side

What would you do

 

Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone

Would you take the children away

And leave me alone

And smile in reassurance

As you whisper down the phone

Would you send me packing

Or would you take me home

 

Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings

Thought I oughta tear the curtain down

I held the blade in trembling hands

Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang

I never had the nerve to make the final cut
