7. Music & Lyrics: Chet Powers |
|
Get Together
Love is but a song we sing and fear's the way we die, You can make the mountains ring or make the angels cry, Tho' the bird is on the wing and you may not know why.
C'mon people, now smile on your brother, ev'ry-body get together, try to love one another right now.
Some will come and some will go and we shall surely pass When the one that left us here returns for us at last We are but a moments sunlight fading in the grass.
C'mon people, now smile on your brother, ev'ry-body get together, try to love one another right now.
If you hear the song I sing you will understand You hold the key to love and fear in your trembling hand Just one key unlocks them both, it's there at your command.
C'mon people, now smile on your brother, ev'ry-body get together, try to love one another right now.

have to include "Tighten Up" by Archie Bell and the Drells.
"Hi, everybody! We're Archie Bell and the Drells, from Houston, Texas. We don't only sing, but we can dance just as good as we walk!"
I always liked "Just Got Lucky" by the Joboxers as a happy pop song also.
Oh heck, while we're at it, why not include "Chalkhills and Children" by XTC?
We really need a poll with 10,000 choices.

It's definitely Take Your Mama, by the Scissor Sisters. That is a summer party song if ever there was one.

"The Coast" by Paul Simon. Something about that guitar riff always makes me smile and then there are the Doo Wops that just make it the perfect song to get me happy. It is funny, I refer to it as my happy song because it always makes me smile even if the lyrics are not the happiest.

37. "This must be the PLace(Naive Melody)" Talking Heads |
|
Edited on Fri Aug-20-04 07:29 PM by FarceOfNature
Home is where I want to be Pick me up and turn me round I feel numb - born with a weak heart I guess I must be having fun The less we say about it the better Make it up as we go along Feet on the ground Head in the sky It's ok I know nothing's wrong . . nothing
Hi yo I got plenty of time Hi yo you got light in your eyes And you're standing here beside me I love the passing of time Never for money Always for love Cover up and say goodnight . . . say goodnight
Home - is where I want to be But I guess I'm already there I come home - she lifted up her wings Guess that this must be the place I can't tell one from another Did I find you, or you find me? There was a time Before we were born If someone asks, this where I'll be . . . where I'll be
Hi yo We drift in and out Hi yo sing into my mouth Out of all those kinds of people You got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home Share the same space for a minute or two And you love me till my heart stops Love me till I'm dead Eyes that light up, eyes look through you Cover up the blank spots Hit me on the head Ah ooh

A song from a Bollywood movie. The movie is "Main Hoon Na;" the song is "Chale Jaise Hawaien." I defy you to listen to this song and remain depressed!
