So I've seen so many memes on this site and now I'd like to start one myself!
Go and sing the song that suits you best right at the moment, record it, then post it with lyrics - would be nice to give feedback by posting a link to your submission under this one here.

Just sing the song once, if it's a bit wonky or rightous wrong - it's okay, it's a meme ;) - this shall be fun. Though my own song is not very joyful itself -

Alone Again from Gilbert O'Sullivan:

In a little while from now,
If I'm not feeling any less sour.
I promised myself, to treat myself,
And visit a nearby tower
And climbing to the top,
Would throw myself off,
In an effort to, make clear to whoever,
What it's like when your shattered
Left standing in a lurch,
In a church with people saying
My God, that's tough, she stood him up,
No point in us remaining
I may as well go home,
As I did on my own,
Alone again, naturally.

To think that only yesterday,
I was cheerful, bright and gay.
Looking forward to, and who wouldn't do,
The role I was about to play.
But as if to knock me down,
Reality came around,
And without so much as a mere touch,
Cut me into little pieces.
Leaving me to doubt, all about God and His mercy,
Oh, if He really does exist,
Why did He desert me?
And in my hour of need,
I truly am, indeed,
Alone again, naturally.

It seems to me that there are more hearts,
Broken in the world that can't be mended,
Left unattended, what do we do?
What do we do?

Now looking back over the years,
And whatever else that appears.
I remember I cried when my father died,
Never wishing to hide the tears.
At sixty-five years old,
My mother, God rest her soul,
Couldn't understand why the only man,
She had ever loved had been taken.
Leaving her to start, with a heart so badly broken,
Despite encouragement from me,
No words were ever spoken.
And when she passed away,
I cried and cried all day,
Alone again, naturally
Alone again...
naturally.


Recorded with my PC using Audacity 1.3beta (and a microphone, of course ;D). Just my voice and not enough breath as you can hear :D

Go and spread the music over this place!

Will be put into scraps soon, of course.
