I know I might be a piggy

about this, but there is another song I would like to see on the next one as well. It is "I Am, I Said" by Neil Diamond. OMG I think of Freddie every time I hear it, because it speaks of being a New York boy in LA and being lonely.

I am... I said
Neil Diamond

LA's fine the sun shines most of the time
And the feeling is laid back
Palm trees grow and rents are low
But'cha know
I keep thinking about makin my way back
We'll I'm New York City born and raised
But now a days I'm lost between two shores
LA's fine but it ain't home
New York's home but it ain't mine no more

I am I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all not even the chair
I am I cried
I am said I
And I am lost and I can't even say why
Leaving me lonely still

Did you ever read about a frog
Who dreamed of being a king?
And then became one
Well except for the names and a few other changes
If you talk about me
The story's the same one
But I've got an emptyness deep inside
And I tried but it won't let me go
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
But I never cared for the sound of being alone

I am I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all not even the chair
I am I cried
I am said I
And I am lost and I can't even say why
Leaving me lonely still

Hey all,

I always thought of Freddie as my hero. So, I would like to pick Hero by Mariah Carey.

This really is a great idea. Definitely worth repeating!

Sandra

Danisel331 · 10-25-2003, 03:43 AM

Here are your lyrics Ms Sandra.

There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Joy · 10-25-2003, 11:05 AM

another good one would be I need a hero by Bonnie Tyler from the footloose soundtrack...it was also the themesong for the show cover up with Jon Erik Hexum

MariposaLKB · 10-25-2003, 11:11 AM

Another Bonnie Tyler song that reminds me of Freddie is "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Not just because of the words but because in certain places the guy singing "Turn around, bright eyes" sounds like him!

sfditusa · 10-25-2003, 09:05 PM

Thanks Dani, I really liked reading the words while thinking of how Freddie has affected me throughout my life. That song jives with that, as well as is insightful. for me, as to how to deal with Freddie's passing as well.

Sandra

Pitooey · 10-26-2003, 02:45 AM

Macca - Is there anyway I can change my song?

For Freddie I would rather have this song it's called.....

"Painted desert" by Pat Benatar

Danisel331 · 10-26-2003, 05:27 AM

Shame, Shame Ms Jenny!

I'll have a look but in the meantime, here are your lyrics

hear your heartbeat but you're never there
Like a mirage, you haunt me everywhere
All day long
I burn for you, lonely in the night
I tried to live alone, but I just can't get it right

Ya' know that, this town's like a Painted Desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a Painted Desert
In a Painted Desert without you

I've done some thinkin', now that you're not here
I know your reasons, and they're still not clear
All I'm sure of is what I got to lose
I tried to be a better loser, but it's just no use

Ya' know that this town's like a Painted Desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a Painted Desert
In a Painted Desert without you

Walkin' in the sundown, I search in vain
Waitin' on the wind that whispers out your name
Through concrete canyons echoing a world of other faces
No direction looks like home
Where is my oasis?

Ya' know that this town's like a Painted Desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a Painted Desert
In a Painted Desert without you
In a Painted Desert without you
Where is my oasis?

Danisel331 · 10-26-2003, 06:08 AM

Ok gang! I had another suggestion for one of my greatest friends and she chose this song because she said Freddie was such an inspiration to his friends, family, and fans. She's a new fan and I really think you will like her choice.

Gabrielle - Sunshine

Thanks to ukmc.co.uk/lyrics for these lyrics

Made a wish, I can dream
I can be what I want to be
Not afraid to live my life
And fulfil my fantasies

I learnt a lot of tricks to help me live my life
You helped me find my paradise
When you came I saw

Sunshine through my window
That's what you are
My shining star
Sunshine
Making me feel like
I'm on top of the world
Telling me I'll go far

Reaching out, for the highs
You inspired me to try
I felt the magic inside
And I felt that I could fly
I'm looking at the world in an optimistic light
You made me appreciate my life
'Cos when you came you were my

Sunshine through my window
That's what you are
My shining star
Sunshine
Making me feel like
I'm on top of the world
Telling me I'll go far

You are the calm
I am the storm
You are the breeze that carries me on
When I said a truth
You wink at me
You're there for me

Sunshine (oh yeah)
That's what you are
My shining star
Sunshine
Making me feel I'm on top of the world
Telling me that I'll go far
Sunshine through my window
That's what you are
My shining star

(Sunshine) Making me feel I'm on top of the world
Telling me that I'll go far
Sunshine through my window
That's what you are
My shining star
Sunshine
Making me feel I'm on top of the world
Telling me that I'll go far
Sunshine
My star, my star..

Joy · 10-26-2003, 11:09 AM

That's a beautiful song Dani!

I love Jemmy's other choice too why not both?
I think the chico and the man theme should be on there too
and if anyone finds a song about friends that could relate to Jack and Freddie and or Ed and Chico is a must too

Just some thoughts

Pitooey · 10-26-2003, 11:20 AM

Thanks Dani for those lyrics... Plus Gabrielle's song is one I had never heard so that is a real treat for me.

I was wondering........ This thought came to me yesterday when I went out doing some errands.

Remember that song that someone sang after Freddie died? Freddie's song? It was sung by a woman who hurt after Freddie died. That would be so perfect to put on the CD. I have not heard that song since the 70's....

Cheryl Harrell · 10-26-2003, 11:59 AM

The song was called Freddie & was by Charlene the singer who did a song in the 70's called "I've Never Been To Me". I've never heard it but would love to. I tried to find it but and can't seem to find it ...

Luckymama58 · 10-26-2003, 03:41 PM

I have a copy that a friend sent me a year or so ago but it is on cassette tape.... I am not sure how to transform it to a computer file. . I also have the sheet music to that song. It is a beautiful song. If anyone has any ideas on how to transfer it from cassette tape to a CD let me know. I don't have the equipment. I can make a copy for anyone who might have the equipment. I don't have the tape duplicator at home, but have access to one at school. Sorry ladies, I don't know if I have the time to make copies for everyone tho, but I could make one.

here are the words BTW:

Freddie By Ron Miller and Ken Hirsh
Sung By Charlene

Freddie, are you free from the pain,
Is the world the same since you have gone away?
Hey, Freddie, I'd go back if I could,
Life was sure looking good with you here yesterday.
We're afraid of things that we don't understand.
Why did you close the show it just began.
Did you feel that maybe you weren't loved enough?
Or were you afraid of being loved too much?

Freddie, there were clouds in your mind;
But we all need some time to learn what we're about.
Hey, Freddie, dreams don't come ready made,
If you only had stayed we'd have worked it out.
I believe in all the things that love can do.
And you believed in love but not in you.
No I never had a chance to say goodbye.
Please forgive me but there's something in my eye.

Freddie, lo sentimos, senor,
Que no vives aqui; amamos a ti.

Pitooey · 10-26-2003, 03:59 PM

Now that would be perfect for the CD........

Lucky did you play the guitar in Sweet Nightmare? It sounded so good...... I love guitars........

Luckymama58 · 10-26-2003, 04:06 PM

Yes that is little ole me Mariposa wrote the words in a poem and I put it to music. That is my gravely voice singing it too. LOL We have talked about tweaking it sometime. She wants to add another line to the chorus.
