LIMAHL: NEVER ENDING STORY

-


Turn around
Look at what you see
In her face
The mirror of your dreams
Make believe I'm everywhere
Given in the light
Written on the pages
Is the answer to a never ending story
Ah
Reach the stars
Fly a fantasy
Dream a dream
And what you see will be
Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon a rainbow
Is the answer to a never ending story
Ah
Story
Ah
Show no fear
For she may fade away
In your hand
The birth of a new day
Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon a rainbow
Is the answer to a never ending story
Ah
Never ending story
Ah
Never ending story
Ah
Never ending story
Ah

Feels Like I'm in Love Song by Kelly Marie Ray Dorset, who was the lead vocalist for Mungo Jerry, wrote this for Elvis Presley, who was one of his idols. Unfortunately, Elvis' untimely death ruled this out and the song ended up as the B-side of a Mungo Jerry single released in France. In the book 1000 UK #1 Hits by Jon Kutner and Spencer Leigh, Dorset explains: "I wrote Feels Like I'm In Love in 1977 with Elvis Presley in mind and even recorded it Elvis-style on my demo. My producer, Barry Murray, was about to send it to Elvis when he got a phone call saying Elvis had died. After that, I kinda put it to bed for a while. Kelly Marie had a few minor hits in France and had been hanging around our office a bit. I thought she had a good voice, so I asked her if she wanted to record the song." This was originally released 18 months earlier but it failed to chart. It then became a northern club hit before finally topping the UK charts. Kelly Marie was born Jacqueline McK

LYRICS  only dreamed that I would find A loving heart, an open mind to see the real me And I hoped that you would be the one A chance to talk, a chance to grow I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow I've found the words I need to say Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Now I know that you are mine You bring me your love and peace of mind You see the real me and I know that you're the key Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly, awkwardly You're all I want, all I need you to be Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Just you,

BELFAST CHILD by Simple minds

 BELFAST CHILD by Simple minds This song was inspired by the 1987 Enniskillen bombing, when a bomb planted by the IRA exploded during a Remembrance Day service at Enniskillen in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, killing 11 people and injuring at least 63. Simple Minds lead singer Jim Kerr explained to Q magazine in 1989: "In the second part of 'Belfast Child' I'm trying to relate to people in Northern Ireland who've also lost loved ones. I'm trying to talk about the madness and sadness and emptiness. I'm not saying I have any pearls of wisdom, but I have a few questions to ask. When I'm asked on American TV who my heroes are, rather than saying Lou Reed or Bob Dylan or someone who goes without saying, I say there are these people called Amnesty International and what they are doing I think is rather heroic. It only takes about 30 seconds."  The music is based on a traditional song alled "She Moved Through The Fair," which Jim Kerr hea
