Dedicate a song to Michael.

Beautiful music for a beautiful soul....






Mahler Symphony No.2 (the 'Resurrection') last section of last movement, conducted by Sir Simon Rattle


and 'The Music Makers' by Sir Edward Elgar...first part only
We Are the Music-Makers



a musical setting of the poem 'We Are the Music-Makers' by Arthur O'Shaughnessy

We are the music-makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams.
World-losers and world-forsakers,
Upon whom the pale moon gleams;
Yet we are the movers and shakers,
Of the world forever, it seems.


Dido's Lament (Remember me, but Ah, forget my fate, sung by Jessye Norman)





Nature Boy....sung by Celine Dione

Beyonce - "I was Here" (the song is perfect to describe Michael)

"I wanna leave my footprints on the sands of time
Know there was something that, and something that I left behind
When I leave this world, I'll leave no regrets
Leave something to remember, so they won't forget

I was here...
I lived, I loved
I was here...
I did, I've done, everything that I wanted
And it was more than I thought it would be
I will leave my mark so everyone will know
I was here...

I want to say I lived each day, until I died
I know that I had something in, somebody's life
The hearts I have touched, will be the proof that I leave
That I made a difference, and this world will see

I was here...
I lived, I loved
I was here...
I did, I've done, everything that I wanted
And it was more than I thought it would be
I will leave my mark so everyone will know

I was here...

I was here...
I lived, I loved
I was here...
I did, I've done, everything that I wanted
And it was more than I thought it would be
I will leave my mark so everyone will know
I was here...

I just want them to know
That I gave my all, did my best
Brought someone to hapiness
Left this world a little better just because...

I was here...

Something Inside So Strong :heart:
 


Translation: (from www.animelyrics.com)
Maybe I wanna be your girl
Maybe all I need is you

Even like that, even by your side
Even like this, receiving your love.

Without time on my side
I can't become your girlfriend.

Many times I've thought that it's fine even like that
Although I'm sharing you with someone else
Resenting it, I've cried countless times
Even if it's just a lie to comfort me say that I'm the only one.

Without the anaesthetic of your kiss, it begins to hurt
Have you already returned?

It's shameful to shed tears here
So I grit my teeth, enduring it all.

Many times I've thought that it's fine even like that
Although I'm sharing you with someone else
Resenting it, I've cried countless times
Even if it's just a lie to comfort me

Please
You're the only one in my heart
Tell me that I'm the only one you love.

There's only one thing that I want
I desire nothing but every part of you

Instead of running, I try to see what's next with my own eyes
In the world waiting ahead along this path
Even if I get hurt again
It definitely won't stop me, because of this feeling

Many times I've thought that it's fine even like that
Although I'm sharing you with someone else
Resenting it, I've cried countless times
Even if it's just a lie to comfort me say that I'm the only one

Maybe baby
I wanna be your girl
(Maybe I wanna be your girl)
Maybe baby
(Maybe all I need is you)
All I need is you

Maybe baby
I wanna be your girl
(Maybe I wanna be your girl)
Maybe baby
(Maybe all I need is you)
All I need is you
 
"A Time To Love"
Stevie Wonder
(feat. India.Arie)

We have time for racism
We have time for criticism
Held bondage by our ism's
When will there be a time to love

We make time to debate religion
Passing bills and building prisons
For building fortunes and passing judgements
When will there be a time to love

At this point in history we have a choice to make
To either walk a path of love
Or be crippled by our hate

We have time to cause pollution
We have time to cause confusion
All wrapped up in our own illusions
When will there be a time to love

We make time to conquer nations
Time for oil exploration
Hatred, violence and terrorism
When will there be a time to love

At this moment in time
We have a choice to make
Father God is watching
While we cause mother earth so much pain
It's such a shame

Not enough money for
The young, the old and the poor
But for war there is always more
When will there be a time to love

We make time for paying taxes
Or paying bills and buying status
But we will pay the consequences
If we don't make the time to love

Now's the time to pay attention
Yes now is the time... to love...
A time love... Love...
A time to Love
Please, please won't you tell me
When will there be a time to love...
 
Inseparable
by Natalie Cole
Written by Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy


Inseparable, that’s how we’ll always be, Inseparable, just you and me
It’s so wonderful to know you’ll always be around me
Incredible, what you are to me, Incredible, you bring out the woman in me
With your style of love, inseparable, yes, we are
We’re like a flower to tree, like words to a melody of love
There’s no way we can break up, No words that can make us blow our thing
We’re just inseparable, that’s how it is, Inseparable for the rest of our years
It’s so wonderful to know you’ll always be around

:cry::cry::cry:
Close the door
Shut the world away
All the fight's gone from this wounded heart
Across the floor
Dreams and shadows play
Like wind blown refugees

Call the man
Who deals in love beyond repair
He can heal the world
Of hearts in need of care
Shine a light ahead
When the next step is unclear
Call the man
He's needed here

I close my eyes
I remember when
Your sweet love filled this empty room
The tears I cry
Won't bring it back again
Unless the lonely star should fall

Call the man
Who deals in love beyond repair
He can heal the world
Of hearts in need of care
Shine a light ahead
When the next step is unclear
Call the man
He's needed here

Needed in the chaos and confusion
From the plains to city hall
Needed where the proud who walk the wire are set to fall

Call the man
Who deals in once upon a time
Maybe he
Can mend this broken heart of mine
Shine a light ahead
Now the future isn't clear
Call the man
He's needed here
Call the man
He's needed here

He's needed here
He's needed here
Call the man

He's needed here
Right here right now

I see you
I see you
Walking through a dream
I see you
My light in darkness breathing hope of new life
Now I live through you and you through me
Enchanted

I pray in my heart that this dream never ends

I see me through your eyes
Living through life flying high
Your life shines the way into paradise
So I offer my life as a sacrifice
I live through your love

You teach me how to see
All that’s beautiful
My senses touch your word I never pictured
Now I give my hope to you
I surrender
I pray in my heart that this world never ends

I see me through your eyes
Living through life flying high

Your love shines the way into paradise
So I offer my life
I offer my love, for you

When my heart was never open
(and my spirit never free)
To the world that you have shown me
But my eyes could not division
All the colours of love and of life ever more

Evermore_
(I see me through your eyes)
I see me through your eyes_
(Living through life flying high)
Flying high_


Your love shines the way into paradise
So I offer my life as a sacrifice
And live through your love
And live, through your life
I see you

I see you
 
this kiss in the
wind is for you
you'll get it there
with another hundred ones

this is for you
maybe it's not much
I know your story
it deserved more attention
and maybe who knows
if I had known
I would have helped you
but what does it matter
now that...

you can take the
tale of a comet and
by turning the universe
you can go away
maybe you can reach
your goals now
a different world that
you never found before
it just didn't have
to happen this way
now we are all a little
bit more lonely here

this is for you
this flower I chose
I will leave it there
under a covered sky
I look in the far distance
and November is passing
and you've got 20 years
forever... now that...

you can take the
tale of a comet and
by turning the universe
you can go away
maybe you can reach
your goals now
a different world that
you never found before...
you never found before...
maybe you can reach
your goals now
a different world that
you never found before...

it just didn't have
to happen this way
now we are all a little
bit more lonely here
now we are all a little
bit more lonely here...

this is for you... :heart::heart::heart:
 
Ludovico Einaudi "Primavera" - Live at Royal Albert Hall

[youtube]10V52ytU4tI[/youtube]​
 
[video=youtube;T4wYU73HvZo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4wYU73HvZo[/video]




Wer lässt sie nur verschwinden
die Gesichter dieser Welt?
Wer nimmt ihnen die Seele?
Es ist ihr Leben, das uns fehlt
Wir suchen überall
und dennoch tauchen sie nicht auf
Ihr Fehlen reisst die Narben
immer ewig wieder auf

Wie nur soll ich
an dich denken
ohne angst-
erfüllt zu sein?

Ich kann nicht mit dir
sprechen ohne
hoffnungslos zu schreien

Ich will nicht
an dich denken
Das darf doch so
nicht sein

Könnt` ich doch nur mit Wehmut lauschen
den Worten, die Du nicht mehr sprichtst
Ich würd` so gern Dein Atmen spüren
doch keiner weiß, wo Du jetzt bist


Love this song.
 



The Other Side - Evanescence



Make me whole again
Open your eyes
Taunted by the shadows
Of your lie
Cold and far away
Like you're not even mine
Undo everything
And take me

Higher
Never believing what they say
Cause I'm

Counting the days
To meet you on the other side
I will always be
Waiting
Until the day that I see you
On the other side
Come and take me home

I'm not giving in
I want you back
Holding together by the shards of our past
Stole my heart away
I can't let you go
Break these chains
And let me fly to you

High above the world below
Over and over in my mind

Counting the days
To meet you on the other side
I will always be
Waiting
Until the day that I see you
On the other side
Come and take me home

I am so lost without my place
Inside your heart
I won't survive
I need to know you hear me
Awaken and release my love

Counting the days
To meet you on the other side
I will always be
Waiting
Until the day
That I see you on the other side
Come and take me

Counting the days
To meet you on the other side
I will always be
Waiting
Until the day that I see you
On the other side
Come and take me home

Tchaikovsky - Waltz of Flowers
When I was a child I did ballet and one of the performances was to this score, and I remember thinking of Michael because I knew he loved Tchaikovsky, too.

 


I wanted you to know that
I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away...
I keep your photograph and
I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

You've gone away, you don't feel me here, anymore

The worst is over now
And we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn
And no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away...

Cause I'm Broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone...
You gone away, you don't feel me here anymore
 

Maybe in the start we would laugh
Maybe in the end we would cry
But I believe in every book I've ever read
And what you said

And the moon was in the sky
And the tears did fill my eyes
And the memories they all had passed
But in my head they'll always last
And in the end before I could be
I'd shown the world
What it means to me
Believe it or not, I made them see
This is what happiness means to me

Will I ever see your face again
Will I ever touch your skin
I'll never stop loving everything you do
But not me and you

And the moon was in the sky
And the tears did fill my eyes
And the memories they all had passed
But in my head they'll always last
And in the end before I could be
I'd shown the world
What it means to me
Believe it or not, I made them see
This is what happiness means to me

And in the end, I made them see
This is what happiness means to me
 

Sand and Water, written by Beth Nielsen Chapman when she lost her husband. It's a song about loss. Elton John performed the song on the Big Picture tour following the death of Princess Diana.
 
Herbert Grönemeyer - Der Weg

One of my all time favorite songs.

[youtube]xSWJBClrmgo[/youtube]


Ich kann nicht mehr seh'n
Trau nicht mehr meinen Augen
Kann kaum noch glauben
Gefühle haben sich gedreht
Ich bin viel zu träge
Um aufzugeben
Es wär' auch zu früh
Weil immer was geht

Wir waren verschwor'n
Wär'n füreinander gestorben
Haben den Regen gebogen,
Uns vertrauen gelieh'n
Wir haben versucht
Auf der Schußfahrt zu wenden
Nichts war zu spät
Aber vieles zu früh

Wir haben uns geschoben
Durch alle Gezeiten
Haben uns verzettelt,
Uns verzweifelt geliebt
Wir haben die Wahrheit
So gut es ging verlogen
Es war ein Stück vom Himmel,
Dass es dich gibt

Du hast jeden Raum
Mit Sonne geflutet
Hast jeden Verdruß
Ins Gegenteil verkehrt

Nordisch nobel
Deine sanftmütige Güte
Dein unbändiger Stolz
Das Leben ist nicht fair

Den Film getanzt
In einem silbernen Raum
Vom goldenen Balkon
Die Unendlichkeit bestaunt
Heillos versunken, trunken
Und alles war erlaubt
Zusammen im Zeitraffer
Mittsommernachtstraum

Du hast jeden Raum
Mit Sonne geflutet
Hast jeden Verdruß
Ins Gegenteil verkehrt

Nordisch nobel
Deine sanftmütige Güte
Dein unbändiger Stolz
Das Leben ist nicht fair

Dein sicherer Gang
Deine wahren Gedichte
Deine heitere Würde
Dein unerschütterliches Geschick

Du hast der Fügung
Deine Stirn geboten
Hast ihn nie verraten
Deinen Plan vom Glück
Deinen Plan vom Glück

Ich gehe nicht weg
Hab' meine Frist verlängert
Neue Zeitreise
Offene Welt
Habe dich sicher
In meiner Seele
Ich trage dich bei mir
Bis der Vorhang fällt
Ich trag dich bei mir
Bis der Vorhang fällt
 

Neither do I live...Nor do I die.
Tell me what to do, I want to say goodbye!
Hearts were torn apart, before they could be tied.
Souls were separated in a chasm so wide.
What has destiny in store who knows!
These eyes well up with tears yet again.
Seeking a glimpse of you but in vain!
My beloved, this is destiny's game!
How do I live each day?
Without you, it's a desolate bay!
Neither do I live...Nor do I die.

A dream when destroyed..
makes your world a void.
Your love is not your's anymore..
your life is a barren core.
Why does this happen..
..when this heart sobs,
around me the howling winds toss.
And my life seems totally lost.
A dream when destroyed..
makes your world a void.
Your love is not your's anymore..
your life is a barren core.

Lit a candle and let it burn
never let the hope disappear
it´s dark now
but it becomes brighter again

Lit a candle for everything you believe in
for this planet we live on
lit a candle for the children of earth


I saw a star fall
it was last night when everyone was asleep
I think I wanted
you were close

Onr minute ago it was burning
for a second then it disappeared
it was just me who saw

on the radio they sang about peace on earth
I wanted to believe them worn words



Lit a candle and let it burn
never let the hope disappear
it is dark now
but it becomes brighter again

Lit a candle for éverything you believe in
for this planet we live on
lit a candle for the children of earth


I received a card from Windhem
I did not know where it was
I looked on the map
You are on the other side of the world

but it is the same sky
it is the same sea and the star that I saw

seemed forever that we dream
seemed that we never forget

lit a candle and let it burn
never let the hope disappear in the dark now
but it becomes brighter again

Lit a candle for all you believe in
for this planet we live on
light a candle for the children of earth

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

promise to take care of yourself
a greeting you get

lit a candle and let it burn
never let the hope disappear in the dark now
but it becomes brighter again

lit a candle for all you believe in
for this planet we live on
lit a candle for the children of earth

Aaah lit a candle for the children of earth
lit a candle for the children of earth
