^^ ooooohhh, I forgot about that song, its so beautiful !!
Evanescence - My Immortal
:weeping: ...this is so sad. That video was beautiful though...and the lyrics really work so perfectly with Michael. God...just makes me miss him so much :boohoo:That song makes me cry. I played it when I was on the coach from Santa Maria to LAX airport when I was traveling home from Michael's trial in 2005. The song has reminded me of that time ever since......a few months after June 25th I heard it on the radio, and all of a sudden I felt the emotions from 2005...then heard the lyrics and just started crying.
"When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along"
Yeah, I know. :better::weeping: ...this is so sad. That video was beautiful though...and the lyrics really work so perfectly with Michael. God...just makes me miss him so much :boohoo:
Well i have TONS I'll post only a few, another time will post more, is juts there are so many..
"Fields Of Gold"
o
A fellow Sting fan I see! Sting is one of my very very favorites. It's funny you say Field of Gold for Michael. That song came out not long after a childhood friend of mine was killed. I was 16 when he died, and he was only a few years older than me. I grew up with this friend, along with a bunch of other kids-mostly boys-from the time I was 5. We are all still friends today. Well when my friend was killed, it devastated us. Before he died he had also started to play the bag pipes too. So the same year that Fields of Gold came out my cousin who also hung around with us learned how to play the Bag Pipes in his honor and surprised us all one day by playing for us. Not long after that this song came out. I always think of the last verse of this song and think it's my friend talking to me and my friends, asking us to never forget him or the times we had, and when we do think of him to smile, not cry. I love Sting for writing this song. It really helped us all heal.
So getting back to this thread here are a few songs I can think of that I also made tributes to Michael to-
When The Angels Fall-Sting
[youtube]0lMXS82llBQ[/youtube]
"When The Angels Fall"
So high above the world tonight
The angels watch us sleeping
And underneath a bridge of stars
We dream in safety's keeping
But perhaps the dream
Is dreaming us
Soaring with the seagulls
Perhaps the dream
Is dreaming us
Astride on the backs of eagles
When the angels fall
Shadows on the wall
In the thunder's call
Something haunts us all
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
Take your father's cross
Gently from the wall
A shadow still remaining
See the churches fall
In mighty arcs of sound
And all that they're containing
Yet all the rugged souls
Looking for their lost homes
Shuffle to the ruins
From the levelled plain
To search among the tombstones
When the angels fall
Shadows on the wall
In the thunder's call
Something haunts us all
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
These are my feet
These are my hands
These are my children
And this is my demand
Bring down the angels
Cast them from my sight
I never want to see
A million suns at midnight
Your hands are empty
The streets are empty
You can't control us
You can't control us anymore
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
Be Still My Beating Heart By Sting
[youtube]5kd7Iwrw1Ns[/youtube]
"Be Still My Beating Heart"
Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It's not time to be open just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget
Be still my beating heart
Or I'll be taken for a fool
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face
I've been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so
I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heart
Restore my broken dreams
Shattered like a falling glass
I'm not ready to be broken just yet
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget
Be still my beating heart
You must learn to stand your ground
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face
I've been to every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heart
Never to be wrong
Never to make promises that break
It's like singing in the wind
Or writing on the surface of a lake
And I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
And I struggle to avoid any help at hand
I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Stop before you start
Be still my beating heart
Come Back To Me-Janet Jackson
[youtube]fRF6rbTAxqQ[/youtube]
Looking through my old drawer
Came across the letter you wrote
Said you needed time away
That was so long ago
All my life I've waited
To see your smile again
In my mind I've hated
Not able to let go
Chorus:
Come back to me
I'm begging you please
Come back to me
I want you to
Come back to me
I'm begging you please
Come back to me
Lord knows that I have tried
To live my life as one
Friends tell me to hold on
Tough times don't last for long
My abandoned heart
Just doesn't understand
My undying love for you
Won't let me wait
Come back to me
I'm begging you please
Come back to me
I want you to
Come back to me
I'm begging you please
Come back to me
I want you to
Come back
To me
Come back
I want you to
Come back
To me
Come back
Please come back to me
I miss you so much
wherever you are
I love you
All my life I've waited
To see your smile again
In my mind I hated
Not able to let go
(Ohh, Ohh)
Not able to let go
(Ohh, Ohh)
0h no,I won't let you go
No (ohh)
I don't know what else to say
No, no, no, no
Nutshell by Alice in Chains
[youtube]4WtiX5xpcCY[/youtube]
We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight
And yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home
Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...
My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find
And yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead
Oooh...Oooh...
Oooh...Oooh...
Those are a few, I hope that you like the videos I made to go with the songs too. I think you all will like Janet's song the best.....
Those are beautiful and touching lyrics. I'm going to look up this song. Thanks for this.Longer than - Dan Fogelberg
Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
I've been in love with you.
Stronger than any mountain cathedral
Truer than any tree ever grew
Deeper than any forest primeval
I am in love with you.
I'll bring fire in the winters
You'll send showers in the springs
We'll fly through the falls and summers
With love on our wings.
Through the years as the fire starts to mellow
Burning lines in the book of our lives
Though the binding cracks and the pages start to yellow
I'll be in love with you.
I'll be in love with you.
Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
I've been in love with you
I am in love with you..
Especially for the girls, but I do feel something for Michael. (i'm not in love with Michael as feel something for him, but he is really important for me)
I love what we are doing here - we're describing Michael, and our feelings for him through MUSIC, the very essence of who Michael was. I'm going to put all the songs that have been posted on a cd....a compilation of love.
Aww that's a cute idea! :yes:I love what we are doing here - we're describing Michael, and our feelings for him through MUSIC, the very essence of who Michael was. I'm going to put all the songs that have been posted on a cd....a compilation of love.
Ilse De Lange - I Still Cry
I'm making flowers out of paper
While darkness takes the afternoon
I know that they won't last forever
But real ones fade away to soon
I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you're alright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry
I love that song!I don't know if this has been posted, but Angel by Sarah McLachlan.
Angel
Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
