Perhaps some Loreena McKennitt or some Celtic music?
Sometimes it lifts you, but sometimes it can bring you so low.
Still it is beautiful music and I will continue to buy it. Along with my
Godsmack and Disturbed.

The line between good and evil is razor sharp. Be careful of misteps,
lest you find yourself spitted upon your own blade.

Dragon Mage, for those odd moods, I listen to Beethoven's Fur Elise.


I took Fur Elise all the way through national competition when I was 12 on guitar. 10 years later and I can still pick up a guitar and play it heh. Nuno Bettencourt (sp?) remade flight of the bumblebee on his stratocaster and it was sweet.

I really like Creed's new single, My sacrifice. Here's the lyrics:


Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been awhile, where should we begin?
Feels like forever
Within my heart a memory
A perfect love you gave to me
Oh, I remember

When you are with me I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My Sacrifice

We've seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around
In an instant
It feels so good to realize
What's in yourself and within your mind
Let's find peace there

When you are with me I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My Sacrifice

Another touching my heart today.

Hope Has A Place ~ Enya

One look at love
and you may see
it weaves a web
over mystery,
all ravelled threads
can rend apart
for hope has a place in the lover's heart.
Hope has a place in a lover's heart.

Whispering world,
A sigh of sighs,
The ebb and the flow
of the ocean tides,
One breath, one word
may end or start
a hope in a place of the lover's heart.
Hope has a place in a lover's heart.

Look to love
you may dream,
and if it should leave
then give it wings.
But if such a love
is meant to be;
Hope is home, and the heart is free.

Under the heavens
we journey far,
on roads of life
we're the wanderers,
So let love rise,
So let love depart,
Let hope have a place in the lover's heart.
Hope has a place in a lover's heart.

Look to love
and you may dream,
and if it should leave
then give it wings.
But if such a love
is meant to be;
Hope is home, and the heart is free.

Hope is home, and the heart is free.

(That's off of The Memory of Trees)

I really like Angels, by Robbie Williams:

I sit and wait.
Does an angel, contemplate my fate?
And do they know, the places where we go,
When we're grey and old.

For I have been told
That salvation, let's their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed,
Thoughts running through my head,
And I feel that love is dead,
I'm loving angels instead.

And through it all, she offers me protection,
A lotta love and affection,
Whether I'm right or wrong.
And down the waterfall,
Wherever it may take me,
I know that life won't break me,
When I come to call.
She won't forsake me, I'm loving angels instead.

When I'm feeling weak,
And my pain walks down, a one way street,
I look above.
And I know I'll always be blessed with love.

And as the feeling grows,
She breathes flesh to my bones,
And when love is dead,
I'm loving angels instead.

And through it all, she offers me protection,
A lotta love and affection,
Whether I'm right or wrong.
And down the waterfall,
Wherever it may take me,
I know that life won't break me,
When I come to call.
She won't forsake me, I'm loving angels instead.

Dragonmage, thanks for the texts of Mozart's Requiem...I still know bits of it by heart... so beautiful!



O Fortuna
velut luna
statu variabilis

semper crescis
aut decrescis
vita detestabilis

nunc obdurat
et tunc curat
ludo mentis aciem

ege statem
pote statem
dissolvit ut glaciem

sors immanis
et inanis
rota tu volubilis

status malus
vana salus
semper disolubilis

ob umbrata
et velata
mi-chi quo-que niteris

nunc per ludum
dorsum nudum
fero tui sceleris

sors salutis
et virtutis
mi chi nunc contraria

est affectus
et defectus
semper in angaria

hac in hora
sine mora
corde pulsum tangite

quod per sortem
strenit fortem
mecum omnes plangite!


*shiver* such a wonderful piece...
Still know the entire Carmina Burana lyrics by heart...

(edit - can put in translation of this if anyone's interested )

Another one by Enya

flora's secret

Lovers in the long grass
look above them
only they can see
where the clouds are going
only to discover
dust and sunlight
ever make the sky so blue

Afternoon is hazy
river flowing
all around the sounds
moving closer to them
telling them the story
told by flora
dreams they never knew

Silver willows
tears from Persia
those who come
from a far-off island
Winter Chanterelle lies
under cover
Glory-of-the-sun in blue

Some they know as passion
some as freedom
some they know as love
and the way it leaves them
Summer snowflake
for a season
when the sky above is blue
when the sky above is blue

Lying in the long grass
close beside her
giving her the name
of the one the moon loves
this will be the day she
will remember
when she knew his heart
was
loving in the long grass
close beside her
whispering of love
and the way it leaves them
lying in the long grass
in the sunlight
they believe it's true love
and from all around them
flora's secret
telling them of love
and the way it breathes
and
looking up from eyes of
amaranthine
they can see the sky
is blue
knowing that their love
is true
dreams they never knew
and the sky above is blue

I also sing - very well. I used to sing in the choir and as backup for a Christian group.

(editing to separate latin from translation...don't know why it didn't work)
But worshipping her is basically all I have been doing here over the past month - and she doesn't seem to have as much as noticed ... - sigh !
