long version of Comforting Sounds is amazing. My ex grilfirend's song.....

I never knew there was a long version..

Unless you're talking about a song that's probably 13 minutes long.. :oops:

I think the long version's the 9 minute one.

They have a 3 minute version made for tv and radio, maybe thats the one most people know..

Amazing isnt it?

They're my favorite band.

The instrumental part was just breath-taking to say the least. :bowdown

Music genius.

Proud to say I'm a Frenger.

But I bet nobody knows what I'm talking about..

They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflecting vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hands

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you vincent
This world was never meant for one as
Beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
A silver thorn on a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin soul

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

I heard this recently at a furneral and it nearly broke my heart. Its a very moving song. I'm nearly crying just reading the words.......................

GET A FECKIN GRIP

You f*cking piece of bitter sh*te scum.

Go and kill yourself, peasant. :no

This is a really touching song:

Have you seen the old man
In the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper,
with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride
Hand held loosely at his side
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news

So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking,
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

Chorus

In the all night cafe
At a quarter past eleven,
Same old man is sitting there on his own
Looking at the world
Over the rim of his tea-cup,
Each tea last an hour
Then he wanders home alone

Chorus

And have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears.
In our winter city,
The rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care

Chorus.

Ralph McTell.

Streets of London.

The Business
England 5 - Germany 1

Was a sunny day in a Munich stadium
All the beer in Munich cant console them
As Oliver hit the turf
It was English footballs birth
It was there biggest loss since 1931

England 5 germany1
Michael Owen is number 1

Beckenbauer and Voller thought they d seen it all
Steven Michael Emile and golden balls
Running rings round you there was nothing
You could do England's glory
We changed the story
Now where pulling

England 5 Germany 1
Michael Owen no1

We got a Swede called Sven Gor Eriksson
Bobby Moor is now David Beckham
So Germany rip where the golden age to be our time has come
There on the run its time for victory

Not important for us yellow,dark blue,green
We are walking same way
football is violence , football is hooligans
football is , to stub someone ..

Kazza, you beat me to it!!

Beautiful song and very touching lyrics.

Here is one of the most meaningful songs ever written.

It is about lost love, be it through a break-up, or passing.

It's a Garth Brooks song, written by his friend Tony Arata. (Before anyone scoffs, Brooks is the second biggest selling male solo artist in the USA behind Elvis Presley, and wrote more than a few songs you will know by other singers. ("If Tomorrow Never Comes", for one))

Sadly, Westlife are due to release it this year, so it will lose all of it's awe.

I strongly suggest you listen to this song in it's original form, rather than the inevitably watered-down pap Westsh*te will drone out.

Here it is:

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Holding you, I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Then who's to say? you know I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance

Yes my life, its better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd have had to miss the dance.

Simple, yet thoroughly effective when you listen to it.

i love this band, i think this song sums stuff up

deftones - Rickets

it's so simple to look at every little thing i do wrong
it's so simple to overlook every little thing i do right
i think too much i feed too much im gone too much i skate too much i snore too much im blowin too much, i ate too much im way too much too stuck up

you're probably right this time
but i dont want to listen
you're probably this time
but i dont even care

i dream too much i think too much i step too much those things too much i am too much im :censored:

too muchi need too muchi kinda want to throw!!

you're probably right this time
but i dont want to listen
you're probably this time
but i dont even care

and if it was mine to say, i wouldn't say it
and if it was mine to say, i wouldn't speak

I DRINK TO MUCH
I THINK TO MUCH
I STEP TO MUCH
THOSE THINGS
TOO MUCH
I AM TO MUCH
IM :censored:

TO MUCH
I NEED TO MUCH
I AM NOT ONE TO TRUST

you're probably right this time
but i dont want to listen
you're probably right this time
but i dont even care
and if it was mine to say, i wouldn't say it
and if it was mine to say, i wouldn't speak

Moving lyrics, Lando, and so true to life!

Don't know if I'll be able to get to hear the original, so I shall look out for Westlife's version of it. (I like them, but I know they're not everyone's cup of tea!)

Thanks for the posting.

Thank God!!!! Some one else who like's Westlife :bowdown

The Dance by Garth Brookes is a great song. Have listened to it loads of times and it always brings a tear to my eye......

Back to Westlife :laugh:

There are a few of their songs mean a lot to me but theres one song that if I get married to my other half (and its a VERY big if) will be our 1st dance..................

Another day
Without your smile
Another day just passes by
But now I know
How much it means
For you to stay
Right here with me

The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can't take it any longer

I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
I wanna grow old with you

A thousand miles between us now
It causes me to wonder how
Our love tonight remains so strong
It makes our risk right all along

The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can't take it any longer

I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
I wanna grow old with you

Things can come and go I know but
Baby I believe
Something's burning strong between us
Makes it clear to me

I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing in everything you do
I wanna grow old with you

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets
Ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start

Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads only science apart

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

I was just guessing
At numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart

Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start

Running in circles
Chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm going back to the start..

Never knew what the words were to 'The Scientist', but they're good, so thanks.
