So, I was looking through my music library, and there were so many songs that made me think of Michael, but one really stuck out to me because it is about children and about how they are our future. I wonder if Michael ever heard it...anyways here it is...

'They Are The Roses' - Jessica Andrews

Born with Heaven in their eyes
God sent innocent, a promise of life
Born into this mess we made
Holding the future, and hope of better days
Cause there is nothing more beautiful and wild
Than the dreams that grow in the heart of every child

They are the roses
They are the lights that shine
They are the winds that roll in on the ocean tide
They are angels
They are souls in flight
They are the hope that everything's gonne be alright
They are the roses

Imagine a place filled with happy sounds of playgrounds
Where every child is safe
Where people join hands and pray that the children will all have a chance
And every family, every child, in every town
We're the keepers of this garden
And we can't let them down

They are the roses
They are the lights that shine
They are the winds that roll in on the ocean tide
They are angels
They are souls in flight
They are the hope that everything's gonne be alright
They are the roses

Imagine a place where all people join hands
And every child is safe

Cause they are the roses
They are the lights that shine
They are the winds that roll in on the ocean tide
They are angels
They are souls in flight
They are the hope that everything's gonne be alright
They are the roses

YouTube video of the song, just sung my someone different than what i heard....still beautiful! It's acapella

wow , a really beutiful song!

well, i listened to janet jacksons song 'together again' the other day, and the lyrics really makes me think of michael. i think this is a song that she will sing in memory of her brother, it really feels like its for him. its kinda scary to know that this song is pretty old, and i remember a thread from mjno where we discussed if this song was about michael. now i really think it is.

There are times
When I look above
And beyond
There are times when I feel your love
Around me baby
Ill never forget my baby
(Ill never forget you)

There are times when I look above and beyond
There are times when I feel your love around me baby
Ill never forget my baby

When I feel that I dont belong
Draw my strength
From the words when you said
Hey its about you baby
Look deeper inside you baby

Bridge
Dream about us together again
What I want us together again baby
I know well be together again cuz

Chorus:
Everywhere I go
Every smile I see
I know you are there
Smilin back at me
Dancin in moonlight
I know you are free
Cuz I can see your star
Shinin down on me

(together again, ooh)
Good times well share again
(together again, ooh)
Makes me wanna dance
(together again, ooh)
Say it loud and proud
(together again, ooh)
All my loves for you

Always been a true angel to me
Now above
I cant wait for you to wrap your wings around me baby
Oooh wrap them around me baby

Sometimes hear you whisperin
No more pain
No worries will you ever see now baby
Im so happy for my baby

Bridge

Chorus

(together again, ooh)
Good times well share again
(together again, ooh)
Ooh it makes me wanna dance
(together again, ooh)
Say it loud and proud
(together again, ooh)
All my loves for you

There are times when I look above and beyond
There are times when I feel you smile upon me baby
Ill never forget my baby

What Id give just to hold you close
As on earth
In heaven we will be together baby
Together again my baby
 
I love that song! They play it in my work and everytime I hear it I stop what I am doin and listen and think of Michael =]
 
"No One But You" (Only The Good Die Young) by Queen

A hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in heaven -
Do you want us to cry?
And everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them
No-one but you


One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
And life goes on -
Without you...


Another Tricky Situation
I get the drownin' in the Blues
And I find myself thinkin'
Well - what would you do?
Yes! - it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation
You found a way through - and

One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
We'll remember -
Forever...

And now the party must be over
I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving
Was in the way it was planned?
And so we dress another table
And raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never sayin' goodbye...

One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
Cryin' for nothing
Cryin' for no-one
No-one but you

I would choose "You Are My Life" by MJ
It is everything I feel about him

Once all alone
I was lost in a world of strangers
No one to trust
On my own, I was lonely
You suddenly appeared
It was cloudy before
Now it's clear
You took away the fear
And you brought me back to the light

[Chorus]
You are the sun
You make me shine
Or more like the stars
That twinkle at night
You are the moon
That glows in my heart
You are my daytime my nighttime
My world
You are my life

Now I wake up everyday
With this smile upon my face
No more tears, no more pain
‘Cause you love me
You help me understand
That love is the answer
to all that I am
And I'm a better man
Since you taught me by sharing your love

[Chorus]

You gave me strength
When I wasn't strong
You gave me hope when
all hope was lost
You opened my eyes
when I couldn't see
Love was always here
waiting for me
 
I would choose puff daddy and faith evans i will be missing you

Yeah, This Right Here Goes Out To Everyone Who's Lost Someone That They
Truly Loved....
Check It Out....

Seems Like Yesterday We Used To Rock The Show
I Laced The Track, You Locked The Flow
So Far From Hangin' On The Block For Dough
Notorius They Got To Know That
Life Ain't Always What It Seem To Be
Words Can't Express What You Mean To Me!
Even Though You're Gone We Still A Team
Thru Your Family I'll Fulfill Your Dreams
In The Future Can't Wait To See If You'll
Open Up The Gates For Me
Reminisce Sometime The Night They Took My Friend
Try To Black It Out, But It Plays Again
When It's Real Feelings Hard To Conceal
Can't Imagine All The Pain I Feel
Give Anything To Hear Half Your Breath
I Know You Still Livin' Your Life After Death

Chorus:
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day
Everytime I Pray
I'll Be Missing You

Thinking Of The Day
When You Went Away
What A Life To Take
What A Bond To Break
I'll Be Missing You

(we Miss You, Big....)

It's Kinda Hard Wit You Not Around
Know You In Heaven Smilin' Down
Watching Us While We Pray For You
Everyday We Pray For You
Till The Day We Meet Again
In My Heart Is Where I Keep You Friend
Memories Give Me The Strength I Need To Proceed
Strength I Need To Believe
My Thoughts, Big, I Just Can't Define
Wish I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time
Us And The Six Shop For New Clothes And Kicks
You And Me Takin' Flics
Makin' Hits, Stages They Receive You On
Still Can't Believe You're Gone
Give Anything To Hear Half Your Breath
I Know You Still Livin' Your Life After Death

Chorus

Somebody Tell Me Why...

On That Morning
When This Life Is Over
I Know, I'll See Your Face

Every Night I Pray
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day
Every Night I Pray
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day
Every Night I Pray
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day
Every Night I Pray
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day

Chorus

Every Night I Pray
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day

Chorus

Every Night I Pray
Every Step I Take
Every Move I Make
Every Single Day

(we Miss You)

This song for me holds so much personal memories i heard it the other day and it made me think what has happen,even though this songs reminds me of michael still hasnt sunk in my head :cry: xxx:no:
 
One of the songs I'd chose would be another Puff Daddy song and that is "Best Friend":

[puffy] (mario)
Ive seen a lot of things in my life
Alot of ups and downs
Made alot of mistakes
No matter what, youve always been by my side
Youve always been my best friend
Youre the love of my life (oh)
Youre everything to me (oh)
You never left my side (youre my best friend)
I love you so much (yes, you are)
Youre my best friend

[puffy]
Since the beginning of time
All you did was bless men
Too young to understand but now you my best friend
How could they doubt you, never think about you
Dont they know nothings possible without you

Faith without fear thats how they raised me
Words of man kill but never phase me
Grateful for wisdom that you gave me
But still Im like, dear God I wonder, could you save me?
Too much sinning, gotta be more than plush living
Gotta be more than grabbing nines to buck tin in
Gotta be more than just to lust women
Gotta be more than platinum rolexes, 600s and crushed linen
Praise your name, I know some of them hate their due
Judgment day, dont they know they cant escape your crew
Im just trying to live right and pray you take me through
And with this song I dedicate to you, my lord

1 - [mario winans]
Lord, you mean the world to me
Before I was born you chose me
You always hear me when Im calling
Even catch me when Im falling
Youre the closest one to me
I surrender all to thee
I want the whole wide world to see
That weve always been and well always be
Best friends

[puffy]
Sometimes I reminisce and wonder how I made it this far
Because of you, Im me, so you the real star
Your hindsight, the times right to get my mind tight
Then give it to you and let it shine bright
My best friend, only know how to teach the truth
Plant the seeds of life and let them eat the fruit
Cant you see that he spread love for you
Shed blood for you, cry for and die for you
Willies with mac millies know how you get down
We know the drama you bring whenever you hit town
Just remember when you pray, God is love
Gracious, merciful, forgive even the hardest thugs
Life as we know it, it all begins with him
Life as we know it, it all ends with him
If I was you I would never try to pretend with him
He might spaz and blow it, Im best friends with him

Repeat 1

[puffy]
Been two and a half years since my man big passed
Been two and a half years since my world crashed
I needed help, God gave me the power
Gave me the strength to go face to face with my darkest hour
Looked me in the eyes and ask what you doing unhappy?
Dont you know why Im here? and started shooting at me
Back to the wall, is my faith gonna play out
Never wavered once, gave me no way out
Your time to die, dont even stress the date
Youre coming with me, your soul Im next to take
I told him Im too much blessed with faith
And living for christ and then he said manifest the great
All of a sudden, what Im remembering
Ground started to shake, everything trembling
The power of the truth was shooting through my timberlands
Here was my lord jesus christ, my best friend again, come on

Repeat 1 while:

[puffy]
You mean everything to me
Youve been with me from day one
Even when I thought nobody was there
You were there
Youre my best friend
I love you like no other
There is no feeling like this in the world
If you can relate to what Im feeling
Put your hands in the air for me
Let me see you
Naw, matter of fact clap your hands for me
Clap your hands, come on
Thank you jesus
You always hear me when Im calling
Always catch me when I fall, yeah
I surrender all to thee
I want the whole world to see
That youve always been, youll always be
My best friend
I love you jesus
Thank you, forgive me for my trespasses
As I forgive those who trespass against me
Thank you.

Even though it's about god it will now always remind me of michael :(
 
There's so many songs out there to dedicate to Michael, I can even think of it right now. I just came form the across this song "I'll Be Missing You" is a very nice song for Micheal.

Every day I wake up
I hope I?m dreamin
I can?t believe this shit
Can?t believe you ain?t here
Sometimes it?s just hard for a nigga to wake up
It?s hard to just keep goin
It?s like I feel empty inside without you bein here
I would do anything man, to bring you back
I?d give all this shit, shit the whole knot
I saw your son today
He look just like you
You was the greatest
You?ll always be the greatest
I miss you big
Can?t wait til that day, when I see your face again
I can?t wait til that day, when I see your face again...

Yeah... this right here (tell me why)
Goes out, to everyone, that has lost someone
That they truly loved (c?mon, check it out)

Verse one: puff daddy

Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the track, you locked the flow
So far from hangin on the block for dough
Notorious, they got to know that
Life ain?t always what it seem to be (uh-uh)
Words can?t express what you mean to me
Even though you?re gone, we still a team
Through your family, I?ll fulfill your dream (that?s right)
In the future, can?t wait to see
If you open up the gates for me
Reminisce some time, the night they took my friend (uh-huh)
Try to black it out, but it plays again
When it?s real, feelings hard to conceal
Can?t imagine all the pain I feel
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living your life, after death

Chorus: faith evans

Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every time I pray
I?ll be missing you
Thinkin of the day, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
I?ll be missing you

[puff] I miss you big

Verse two: puff daddy

It?s kinda hard with you not around (yeah)
Know you in heaven smilin down (eheh)
Watchin us while we pray for you
Every day we pray for you
Til the day we meet again
In my heart is where I?ll keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need (uh-huh) to proceed
Strength I need to believe
My thoughts big I just can?t define (can?t define)
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us in the 6, shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me taking flicks
Makin hits, stages they receive you on
I still can?t believe you?re gone (can?t believe you?re gone)
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living you?re life, after death

Chorus

[faith evans] somebody tell me why

Interlude: faith evans

On that morning
When this life is over
I know
I?ll see your face

Outro: 112

Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
Every night I pray, every step I take
[puff] every day that passes
Every move I make, every single day
[puff] is a day that I get closer
[puff] to seeing you again
Every night I pray, every step I take
[puff] we miss you big... and we won?t stop
Every move I make, every single day
[puff] cause we can?t stop... that?s right
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
[puff] we miss you big
*music fades out*
 
I want to dedicate "One Sweet Day" to Michael. It's one of my fav songs.
When I was taking a shower, I sung it and cried because the song reminds me of Michael..

"And I know you're shining down on me from heaven like so many friends we've lost along the way..."


Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away, so far away

Never had I imagined
living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive, alive


And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together (Together)
One sweet day (And all that I know and I'll wait patiently to see you in Heaven)


Darlin', I never showed you (No, no, no, no, no, no) {I never showed you}
Assumed you'd always be there (mariah: always be there,) no,no, {I thought you'd always be there}
and I took your presence for granted
But I always cared (But I always cared) and I miss the love we shared

And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way (Lost along the way)
And I know eventually we'll be together (I know, I know)
One sweet day (And all thatI know is I'll wait patiently to see you in Heaven)

Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Yeah, yeah
Lord, I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray


And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way (Like so many)
And I know eventually we'll be together (Yes, I know, I know we'll be together)
One sweet day

And I know you're shining down on me from heaven (I'll see you eventually)
Like so many friends we've lost along the way (I know you're lookin' for a heaven)
And I know eventually we'll be together(I know, I know)
One sweet day (One sweet day, whoa...)

patiently to see you in Heaven

Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say

I think the chorus from Thank You For The Music by ABBA is very true:

Thank you for the music, the songs Im singing
Thanks for all the joy theyre bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
 
I think this one could be for all the ladies Michael touched over the years....love this song.

"Goodbye" by Lionel Richie

I wanted you for life.
You and me for always.
I never thought there would come a time,
that our story would end.
It's hard to understand,
but I guess I'll have to try.
It's not easy to say good-bye

For all the joy we share
For All that time we had to spare
Now if I had one wish,
I would want forever back again.
To look into your eyes and to hold you when you cry.
It's not easy to say good-bye

I can remember all those great times we had.
There were so many memories,
Some good, some bad.
Yes and thought it all
those memories will last forever.

Is there peace where you are?
Maybe all I need to know.
If I listen to my heart I'll hear your laughter inside.
And so I got to say, I'm just glad you came my way.
It's not easy to say good-bye

Good-bye
 
So this song is about someone going off to war, and it's supposed to be directed to their family...but it really sounds like a Michael song to me =]

When I'm Gone - 3 Doors Down

There's another world inside of me that you may never see
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide.
But somewhere in this darkness there's a light that I can't find
Well maybe it's too far away, or maybe I'm just blind.
Maybe I'm just blind.


So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
You'll always be there
So love me when I'm gone.
Love me when I'm gone.

Maybe your education X-Ray could not see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing that I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness I'm alive but I'm alone
And part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
You'll always be there
So love me when I'm gone.

Maybe I'm just blind.

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
You'll always be there
So love me when I'm gone.
Love me when I'm gone.

I have sooo many choices of songs which can be listened to when thinking about my love and loss of the most beautiful Michael............

How about this for starters..............''I will awlays love you'' by Whitney Housten?? :)
 
"Borrowed Angels" by Kristin Chenoweth...

They shine a little brighter, they feel a little more
They touch your life in ways no one has ever done before
They love a little stronger, they live to give their best
They make our lives so blest, so why do they go so soon?
The ones with souls so beautiful
I heard someone say--

There must be Borrowed Angels, here in this life
They come along, into this world, and make this world bright
But they can't stay forever
Cause they're heaven sent
And sometimes, heaven needs them back again

They reach a little deeper, they see what's in your soul
And even when they leave you know, you'll never let them go
The world's a little richer, just cause they came along
Their love goes on and on, so why do they go so soon?
The ones with souls so beautiful. I heard someone say--

There must be Borrowed Angels, here in this life
They come along, into this world, and make this world bright
They can't stay forever, cause they're heaven sent
And sometimes, heaven needs them back again

How else can you explain why they're here and not here to stay?
I believe there must be, must be

Borrowed Angels, here in this life
They come along, into this world, and make this world bright
But they can't stay forever, cause there heaven sent
And sometimes heaven needs them back again.
And sometimes heaven needs them back again.


And "Forgiven" by Within Temptation

Couldn't save you from the start
Love you so it hurts my soul
Can you forgive me for trying again
Your silence makes me hold my breath
Oh, time has passed you by

Ooh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world
Ooh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own
Here I am left in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that's done's forgiven
You'll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that's done's forgiven

I watched the clouds drifting away
Still the sun can't warm my face
I know it was destined to go wrong
You were looking for the great escape
To chase your demons away

Ooh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world
Ooh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own
And here I am left in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that's done's forgiven
You'll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that's done's forgiven

I've been so lost since you've gone
Why not me before you
Why did fate deceive me
Everything turned out so wrong
Why did you leave me in silence

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
All that's done's forgiven
You'll always be mine
I know deep inside
All that's done's forgiven

Faith Hill's "There you'll be"

When I think back
On these times
And the dreams
We left behind
I'll be glad 'cause
I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back
On these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me

[Chorus:]
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There will always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
And everywhere I am
There you'll be

Well you showed me
How it feels
To feel the sky
Within my reach
And I always
Will remember all
The strength you
Gave to me
Your love made me
Make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me
