So it doesn't have the same connotation - and I don't have the same attachment that you have to its meaning in the show. It's more about the sound of the song... the longing... and a few lyrics here and there. Your lyrics are interesting - I'll listen to it on Playlist.Purgatory Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04206226666250028550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-43777311799286532602009-12-16T16:44:31.829-05:002009-12-16T16:44:31.829-05:00Sorry...Sorry...Purgatory Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04206226666250028550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-91319074902961898492009-12-16T13:12:42.129-05:002009-12-16T13:12:42.129-05:00I guess I just don't like the song choice b/c ...I guess I just don't like the song choice b/c it's about a woman singing about how this great love of her life ended up being a huge bastard and left her and her child alone. LOL I canna believe I would EVER talk you out of using a Les Miz song on a playlist, but this is one of those times. <br /><br />Now if you WANT a Les Miz song, there are plenty to add. One that comes to mind right off the bat is "Drink With Me" for DIA when Culloden is looking more and more inevitable and they are prepping for battle...<br /><br />Drink with me to days gone by<br />Sing with me the songs we knew<br /><br />Here's to pretty girls who went to our heads.<br />Here's to witty girls who went to our beds.<br />Here's to them and here's to you! <br /><br />Drink with me to days gone by<br />Can it be you fear to die?<br />Will the world remember you<br />When you fall?<br />Could it be your death<br />Means nothing at all?<br />Is your life just one more lie?<br /><br />Drink with me to days gone by<br />To the life that used to be<br /><br />At the shrine of friendship, never say die<br />Let the wine of friendship never run dry<br />Here's to you and here's to me<br /><br />[SOB]<br /><br />As for Susan Boyle--forgot about the Scottish quality. I just find her annoying--and even more so, the media circus around her.

I am a wee bit of a Duranie. (understatement) Please dinna hold it against me.;) <br /><br />Tracey I picked Susan Boyle because she's from Scotland. The song isna pairfect.. it's just a general thing I have in my head about Claire and Jamie dreaming about each other while they were apart: <br /><br />I dreamed a dream in time gone by<br />When hope was high<br />And life worth living<br />I dreamed that love would never die<br />I dreamed that God would be forgiving<br />Then I was young and unafraid<br />And dreams were made and used and wasted<br />There was no ransom to be paid<br />No song unsung, no wine untasted<br /><br />And oh my god - Jamie having "that type of dream" in prison:<br /><br />But the tigers come at night<br />With their voices soft as thunder<br />As they tear your hope apart<br />And they turn your dream to shame<br /><br />Le sigh. Find me a better version if you want. But I will admit I like Susan Boyle. I like her story and I hate how she was treated by the media.
