    I always loved this song.

    I was looking for a link to post in the "first song you heard this morning" thread.

    Although I was looking for the original, I was delighted to find this version with Natalie Merchant & Michael Stipe. What a beautiful rendition of "To Sir with Love"

    LYRICS OF "WONDER" APPEAR IN EPIGRAPH OF NEW BOOK
    On Sale February 14, 2012

    "Wonder", the debut novel by R.J. Palacio, is a portrait of one community’s struggle with empathy, compassion, and acceptance. In a world where bullying among young people is an epidemic, this is a refreshing new narrative full of heart and hope. R.J. Palacio has called her book “a meditation on kindness”—indeed, every reader will come away with a greater appreciation for the simple courage of friendship.

    Not un Cultured? Just tragic ally too hip to listen to that whineeeyyy cat orgy noise
    Tori Amos, Sarah McWhatever, I can listen too. If it looks like.., smells like.., sounds like.., it must be...
    Hovercraft :lol:
    with lyrics? oh I am laughing too myself

    That Hovercraft cd is so funny... oh man...
    Electronic music can be good, but (Hovercrap) that was not it..
    Aphex Twin? is super.
    Daft Punk
    Rabbit in the Moon

    Squarepusher.. has no beat? it's still more pleasing

    If you don't like her music, you obviously don't have a place in this thread and we don't need to know it. Please don't hijack my thread.

    P.S: How can you ever compare all these artists/bands? Natalie Merchant is a (folk, alternative, pop) singer, Tori Amos and Sarah McLachlan the same, while Hovercraft is an (experimental, psychedelic, space rock) band, Daft Punk is an (electronica, techno, house) band, your super Aphex Twin is an (electronica, ambient, experimental) band, Rabbit The Moon is an (electronica, progressive house, techno) band and Squarepusher is a (drum n bass, electronica, experimental) musician. So, you try to compare alternative and folk music with electronica and experimental? How come? The math doesn't work, does it? By the way, Natalie Merchant's voice isn't an electronic one, but her real, amazing and unique voice.

    Well said PAP....

    Music is personal - if you don't like Natalie Merchant - don't listen to her music .... ( very simple )

    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    No not a troll, just can't deal with female vocalists..
    I say in moderation..

    Tori Amos was/is Awesome! But they are rare...

    I can name 5 female vocalists I can deal with.. Sadly

    Edit.. I don't listen to Nat Merch.. there is so much better stuff. I'm leaving this thread. I'm sorry.
    Love her so much please

    My Skin....

    http://youtu.be/izqSWCh5DKY

    Oh, I need
    The darkness
    The sweetness
    The sadness
    The weakness
    Oh, I need this

    I need
    A lullaby
    A kiss goodnight
    Angel sweet
    Love of my life
    Oh, I need this

    I'm a slow dying flower
    Frost killing hour
    The sweet turning sour
    And untouchable

    Do you remember the way
    That you touched me before
    All the trembling sweetness
    I loved and adored?

    Motherland....


    Where in hell can you go
    far from the things that you know
    Far from the sprawl of concrete
    That keeps crawling its way
    About 1,000 miles a day?

    Take one last look behind
    Commit this to memory and mind
    Don't miss this wasteland, this terrible place
    When you leave
    Keep your heart off your sleeve

    Motherland cradle me
    Close my eyes
    Lullaby me to sleep
    Keep me safe
    Lie with me
    Stay beside me
    Don't go, don't you go
