"Nobody does it better

Makes me feel sad for the rest

Nobody does it half as good as you

Baby, you're the best"

used in A League of the Own, Carole king's Now and Forever....

Now and forever you are a part of me

And the memory cuts like a knife

Didn’t we find the ecstasy

Didn’t we share the daylight

When you walked into my life

Now and forever I’ll remember

All the promises still unbroken

And think about all the words between us

That never needed to be spoken

We had a moment

Just one moment

That will last beyond the dream

Beyond the lifetime

We are the lucky ones

Some people never get to do

All we got to do

Now and forever

I will always think of you

Didn’t we come together

Didn’t we live together

Didn’t we cry together

Didn’t we play together

Didn’t we love together

And together we lit up our world

I miss the tears

I miss the laughter

I miss the day we met

And all that followed after

Sometimes I wish I could always be with you

The way we used to do

Now and forever I will always think of you

Now and forever I will always be with you

Easy. Coldplay's "The Scientist". I haven't been able to listen to that song without crying and thinking about my Jonz family since 2003. It's the second to last song on our pit video (Clowns is last, of course). We listened to music while loading/unloading the truck, and we always forgot to bring new CD's to the truck. Coldplay was in there for about 2 weeks, and we all got really attached to this song. We also went through an emo Dashboard Confessional phase, but luckily Radiohead saved us. :P

Just a little snippet of lyrics:

Nobody said it was easy

It's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh take me back to the start

Thank you Stu for posting that. Practically perfect. Makes me REALLY REALLY wish I was going to SCV's 40th Anniversary banquet.

I remember when I first saw that movie and TOTALLY identifying with the whole concept - then the reunion scene at the end just wrecked me completely. Here's a link to a website that has a wav of this song for anyone who's needing a good cry.

I've been having serious allergies the last week, so I can blame my current state on that... :lookaround:

This one has always reminded me of corps too. (The "he" being the corps.)

Lyrics from "I Dreamed a Dream"

from Les Miserables.

"He slept a summer by my side.

He filled my days with endless wonder.

He took my childhood in his stride,

but he was gone when autumn came."

Hmmm...the corps seduced you, took your virginity and abandoned you, leaving you to raise your illegitmate child alone?

:P

Fix You... Coldplay

Tears stream down your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down on your face

And I

Tears stream down your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down on your face

And I

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

That Carol King song is amazing. I love her stuff. Greatest part is that I go to school with her grandson. :)

Out there in the spotlight

You're a million miles away

Every ounce of energy

You try to give away

As the sweat pours out your body

Like the music that you play
