| Morbid..but what song is a must to your good-bye Posted: 7/1/2009 8:39:59 PM | Gloomy Sunday by Sarah McLachlan as I find her version is a bit more haunting than Billie Holiday's.
Sunday is gloomy, My hours are slumberless Dearest the shadows I live with are numberless Little white flowers Will never awaken you Not where the black coaches Sorrow has taken you Angels have no thoughts Of ever returning you Wouldn't they be angry If I thought of joining you?
Gloomy Sunday
Gloomy is Sunday, With shadows I spend it all My heart and I Have decided to end it all Soon there will be candles And prayers that are said I know But let them not weep Let them know that I'm glad to go Death is no dream For in death I'm caressing you With the last breath of my soul Ill be blessing you
Gloomy Sunday
Dreaming, I was only dreaming I wake and I find you asleep In the deep of my heart here Darling I hope That my dream never haunted you My heart is telling you How much I wanted you Gloomy Sunday | |

OVER THE RAINBOW...The Hawaiian version
Do you mean "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole? It is one of my most favourite songs, right up there with "Billie Jean" and "Navajo Rug"
The first time I ever heard it was at the end of the movie "50 First Dates" and I had to play the credits to learn who recorded it.
There are several videos on Youtube of his recording. Here is one link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ltAGuuru7Q
His story on Wikipedia is interesting, though sad. | |
