Stevie Wonder - I just called to say I love you
 
No New Years day
To celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of spring
No song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day
No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is
Is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summers high
No warm july
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No Libra sun
No halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is
Though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do.

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

Of my heart
Of my heart

This is one of my favorite James Taylor songs.

James Taylor - Shower the People (Beacon Theatre 1998)

You can play the game and you can act out the part
Though you know it wasn't written for you
But tell me, how can you stand there with your broken heart
Ashamed of playing the fool
One thing can lead to another; it doesn't take any sacrifice
Oh, father and mother, sister and brother
If it feels nice, don't think twice

Just shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna work out fine if you only will
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will

You can run but you cannot hide
This is widely known
And what you plan to do with your foolish pride
When you're all by yourself alone
Once you tell somebody the way that you feel
You can feel it beginning to ease
I think it's true what they say about the squeaky wheel
Always getting the grease.

Better to shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be just fine if you only will
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will

Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel

You'll feel better right away
Don't take much to do
Sell you pride
They say in every life
They say the rain must fall
Just like pouring rain
Make it rain
Make it rain
Love, love, love is sunshine.
Oh yes
Make it rain
Love, love, love is sunshine
Yeah, all right
Everybody, everybody
Shower the people you love with love

I love how she sings and the words she sings.

Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You

If I should stay,
I would only be in your way.
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you ev'ry step of the way.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
You, my darling you. Hmm.

Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me.
So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.

(Instrumental solo)

I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of.
And I wish to you, joy and happiness.
But above all this, I wish you love.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I, I will always love you.

You, darling, I love you.
Ooh, I'll always, I'll always love you.

Thankful One, I especially like the James Taylor song.  Thanks for posting that link to the video.  (p.s. Did you know Dolly Parton did "I Will Always Love You" before Whitney Houston did?  Though the two versions were nothing at all alike.  Just a little music trivia.[:)])

Thankful one -> RE: Videos which are uplifting... (2/11/2008 10:18:40 PM)

Lori,
I did not know Dolly had done that song so I looked it up and loved it. Thanks for letting me know about this. Please let me know more music trivia.

Dolly Parton - I will always love you

Did you know that Dolly Parton has decided to send children's books to every child in Tennessee that signs up? I heard that she sends thousands of great books every month in the mail to encourage children to read. It's a cool practical thing to do.




Hope coach -> RE: Videos which are uplifting... (2/12/2008 12:14:24 AM)

Thankful One
you have touched all my favorites ad brought tears to my eyes with "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" that was Mom and mine favorites we had a Sunday afternoon concert every week for years playing all our favorite albums then Tapes turned to CDs I still do this that song was how she saw our shared relationship the afternoon before she passed she said to me "it's your time to shine".... I also love Dolly Parton's rendition "I Will Always Love You" I love so many songs and genres its hard to pick one. Claire De Lune is a beautiful piano. check out the Franklin MacCormack web samples type in his name and WGN scroll down to the downloads sample a real treat.
Namaste

Imenuff -> RE: Videos which are uplifting... (2/13/2008 3:22:22 PM)

Jessica, that is a very special video. All of them on this particular website are really good. Thank you for sharing them.

Whatever your spirituality, the following has very special message. If not Christian, then perhaps think in terms of the Divine and the fact that each one of us is that very special Valentine miracle gift of the Holy One's love for this world. The words of the video follow the link
You are a Miracle


You are a miracle
You are a child of creation
A reflection of God
No one can steal your beauty
Or reduce your worth
Unless you let them
Don’t let them
You are a miracle of God’s love
A miracle!
Never look at yourself and see anything less
Your life is not a random stroke of chance
You are part of a sovereign plan
Loved into existance
For eternity
Let the fire in your soul
Live and love, Laugh and leap with joy
And for the short time you walk on this earth
Always remember you are the light of the world.

May each of us always be able to recognize how much we are loved!! Happy Valentine's Day!

I have always enjoyed the music of Phil Collins, a big fan I am. This song is good.

I would like to dedicate the following video to Barbara whose love for others keeps lifting all of us higher. Thank you for being you.

NZ Idol Top 3 - Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher

"Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher"

Your love keeps liftin' me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up, yeah, quench my desire
And I'll be at your side forevermore
Yeah

You know your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
It keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me)
Higher (liftin' me, higher and higher)
Yeah, yeah your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
It keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me)
Higher (Liftin' me higher and higher)

Now, once I was downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and he soon departed
And you know he never showed his face again

I'm so glad I finally found you
Yes, that one, the one in a million, yeah
And I wish my lovin' arms around you
'Cause I can stand up and face the world

Come on, lift me up (your love keeps liftin' me)
Yeah

Tonight I was walking outside and the moon came up and it was a calming light. I realized that this same moon shines over everyone in this forum from Austria to Australia. Hi to all the fellow travelers on this planet that share this same moon.

The moonshadows the moon was generously giving were soft and gentle as if to comfort me in my solitary walk. Thank you moon for your blessings.

I thought of the following song and wanted to share it with my friends here. It is an old song from 1976. Knowing and appreciating it dates me but I am glad to be older anyway so I don't care. This is the age that I get to enjoy to the fullest.

God, thank you for letting me enjoy this year and appreciate the moon.

Cat Stevens - Moonshadow (live)

I'm being followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
Leaping and hopping on a moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
And if I ever lost my hands
Lose my plough, lose my land
Oh, if I ever lose my hands- Oh, if...
I wont have to work no more
And if I ever lose my eyes
If my colours all run dry
Yes if I ever lose my eyes, Oh if...
I won't have to cry no more.

Yes, I'm being followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
Leaping and hopping on a moonshadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
And if I ever lose my legs
I won't moan and I won't beg
Oh if I ever lose my legs- Oh if...
I won't have to walk no more
And if I ever lose my mouth
All my teeth, north and south
Yes, if I ever lose my mouth- Oh if...
I won't have to talk...
Did it take long to find me
I ask the faithful light
Did it take long to find me
And are you going to stay the night
I'm being followed by a moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow

This is another Cat Stevens song that is particularly appropriate for me during this most difficult time. It's called Wild World. If you like live music, the first link is for you. If you like the best musical version, the second is my personal favorite although the video itself is nonexistent.

Cat Stevens Wild World, From His 1976 Majikat Tour
 
Cat Stevens - Wild World mp3 ORIGINAL

Lalalalalala...

Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you wanna start something new
And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'
Baby, I'm grievin'
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

CHORUS:
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
and I'll always remember you like a child, girl

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breakin' my heart in two
Because I never wanna see you sad, girl
Don't be a bad girl
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

CHORUS

Lalalalala....

Baby, I love you
But if you wanna leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

CHORUS (x2)
