“Breathe, breathe in the air.
Don’t be afraid to care.
Leave, don’t leave me.
Look around, choose your own ground.
Long you’ll live and high you fly.
Smiles you’ll give and tears you’ll cry.
All you touch and all you see,
Is all your life will ever be?”

Wow I love it I wish I could write like that but I’m just not that good at that many things.
Classic. God, I love that album.
Ah, I wish i could write like that too. Alas, it was written by Pink Floyd. 🙂 The song is “Breathe” from The Dark side of the Moon
I love that album, too. Made life more bearable, knowing that someone in the world could communicate thru music exactly what I feel deep down in those “empty spaces.”
Same! And, although ik it’s wrong to pick a favorite song because it’s The Dark Side of the Moon and it’s just all one big amazing mass of musical genius, my favorite is Money. The bass line kills and, being the liberal I am, I love the lyrics.
Oh, you so greedy. haha, great song tho (I would never pick a favorite, however! Being a concept album, seems like one big track to me… bounderies are very blurred with PF albums). And isn’t all of Pink Floyd’s bass lines killer?
Haha. So true. And you’re so moralistic about music.
Nah, I just find music is the best source of communication. It can convey many things, including immoral feelings, without getting too bogged down with societal taboos. Just look at the (mostly) religious population digging Gagag tunes… When they listen to her music, do you think they care that she “loves Judas” or “bad romances”. Nope. though I don’t particularly like pop music, music trancends all feelings, good or bad. I bet even the Pope gets jiggy with “I’m sexy and I know it” sometimes, don’t you think?
Sometimes music is the only way I can communicate, so I get it. And I lost sight of just about all my morals a long time ago. Good point about Gaga. And LOL, I completely agree with you about the Pope. Haha.
