Songs that come to mind...

These lyrics came to mind.

Think of me, think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye
Remember me once in a while
Please promise me, you'll try

Then you'll find that once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you'll ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me

We never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of me

Think of all the things
We've shared and seen
Don't think about the way
Things might have been

Think of me, think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me trying too hard
To put you from my mind

Recall those days, look back on all those times
Think of those things we'll never do
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you

Oh, and 'Always look on the Bright Side of Life'

OH, and Invictus.

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.


We will meet again, somewhere.

For the non Spanish speakers:

I'm going through stories and moments of a love
I can cause hours to disappear in seconds
But today is the 6th day and it's useless
The day passes and it's useless

It's the dawn of another story
A new phase is beginning
It's been suffering since long ago
On a day like today
Life goes on while hitting our backs
We go around, carrying the cross within our souls

(Chorus)
But I'm not here
Imagining the same things
That always destroy me
I heard a voice
It was shouting at me the same things
That I have known all along

I heard a voice...

Life goes on while hitting our backs
My life is sinking into tears of nothingness

(Chorus)

Like, all we are, is Dust in the Wind, dude.

I close my eyes
only for a moment
and the moments gone
all my dreams
pass before my eyes in curiosity
dust in the wind,
all they are is dust in the wind

Same old song,
just a drop of water
in an endless sea
all we do,
crumbles to the ground
though we refuse to see
dust in the wind,
all we are is dust in the wind

Don't hang on
nothing lasts forever
but the earth and sky
it slips away
and all your money,
won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind
dust in the wind
everithing is dust in the wind
dust in the wind

If I could pick a song for the game to end to, I'd take the last one on the score of "300".
"Remember us", it's called.

Since the news hit, the only song that's been constantly coming back into my mind is Filter's Where Do We Go From Here:

It's the right mix of calm introspection and chaotic unrest, I believe.

Here is the song that keeps going through my mind & heart:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpFRBmRgDcY

Of all the money e'er I had,
I spent it in good company.
And all the harm e'er I've done,
Alas! it was to none but me.
And all I've done for want of wit
To mem'ry now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all.

Chorus:
So fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate'er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
"Good night and joy be to you all"

Oh, all the comrades e'er I had,
They're sorry for my going away,
And all the sweethearts e'er I had,
They'd wish me one more day to stay,
But since it falls unto my lot,
That I should rise and you should not,
I gently rise and softly call,
Good night and joy be with you all.

Chorus:
So fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate'er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
"Good night and joy be to you all"

If I had money enough to spend,
And leisure time to sit awhile,
There is a fair maid in this town,
That sorely has my heart beguiled.
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips,
I own she has my heart in thrall,
Then fill to me the parting glass,
Good night and joy be with you all.

Forgotten Sorrow from Aion, English version

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-jaOwPSef8


Don't cry for me, how easy love has gone.
Try to see, how deep my despair is
Come the winds of fate and time, take all my tearful memories.

Call out to thee, singing your name in sweet harmony
but only echoes fade away.
Crying breeze to thee every moment with chiming wind
where has the silent tears.

Don't sigh for me, your fate rings false to me,
try to see the shards of history.
Darkness fills my heart and I'm.. laughing loud on all that's passed us by.

Call out to thee, singing your name in sweet harmony
the wind blows endlessly.

Roaming around whirly world, rough breath in dark, cruel blades and tears in sorrowful days.
Burning away hollow hopes, don't pray for God where the angels have gone, so I seek,
weep myself all gently, 'till I'm blind.

*piano playing*

Roaming around whirly world, rough breath in dark, cruel blades and tears in sorrowful days.
Burning away hollow hopes, don't pray for God where the angels have gone, so I seek,
weep myself all gently, 'till I'm blind.

Please come to me, come dusk, the past will flee,
try to see the new dawn what brings hope faintly

So far this song has been reminding of CoX, i think it's because i'm trying not to think this is the end

'September' by Daughtry.

Someone seriously needs to make a tribute video to this song, because it fits so well, IMO.

And the lyrics for 'September'

How the time passed away, all the trouble that we gave
And all those days we spent out by the lake
Has it all gone to waste? All the promises we made
One by one they vanish just the same

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Now it all seems so clear, there's nothing left to fear
So we made our way by finding what was real
Now the days are so long that summer's moving on
We reach for something that's already gone, yeah

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

We knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when and we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are
Yeah, we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when and we never knew how

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Goodnight Saigon - Billy Joel, "And we would all go down together."

When I first heard I thought of this song.

Grapevine Fires by Death Cab for Cuties (youtube audio)

A song written by everyone's favourite Mountie - Paul Gross.

Ride Forever
I was born north of Great Slave, 1898
And I rode near all my life on a ranch near Devil's Gate
And I've seen this world about me bend and flip and change
Hey, it feels like rain -- that's a thunder cloud
We'll, I've been called a coward, but I've seen two World Wars
And I lost my son, Virgil, my Korean reward
And my Lucy died last summer -- you ask me if I cry?
Hell, I'll show you tears, they're all over this ground
They're falling from these blue Alberta skies

But I'm going to ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call, well it's only then
I might pull in the reins

They tell me I'm an old man, they tell me I am blind
They took my driver's license, this house ain't far behind
I say jump back all you big suits 'cause you've got something wrong
I ain't gone, no, I ain't gone
I am still breathing and I still have my pride
And I have my memories, your life, it never dies
Like the wind that blows in thunder
Or the stallion on the fly, I got it all
And I'm standing tall underneath these blue Alberta skies

And I'm going to ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call, well it's only then
I might pull in the reins

So I say to all you old men, don't let yourself get broke
If you think the world's gone crazy
And it's scratching at your throat
It's time to dust off that old saddle, get it on a horse
Kick up your spurs, we're gonna run like stink
We're gonna tear across these blue Alberta skies

We're gonna ride forever
You can't keep horsemen in a cage
Should the angels call it's only then
I might pull in the reins.

I'd love to see someone prepare a proper version of this for our fair city.

I guess I'm more bitter than most. The only song that came to mind when I heard the news was F- You by Lilly Allen.

Well, that and Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit.

The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No, no they can't take that away from me

The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No, no they can't take that away from me
We may never, never meet again
On the bumpy road to love
Still I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No, no they can't take that away from me
No, they can't take that away from me

We may never, never meet again
On that bumpy road to love
Still I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you change my life
No, no they can't take that away from me
No, they can't take that away from me

-- "They Can't Take That Away From Me", George and Ira Gershwin
