Amazing what constructive things you can do when you can't sleep; finished two chapters in The Picture Of Dorian Gray, answered some emails, and surfed some music. I found this young lady that is new to me. I was looking for Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli's duet of Time To Say Goodbye, which I found, but also listed was that song by Katherine Jenkins (Shemp, you are going to like her!!) and Bocelli, which lead me to search out more of her songs. I chose to use this one, REQUIEM FOR A SOLIDER, as I knew it from Band of Brothers, but I did not know there were words to it. All this time I thought it was theme music for the soundtrack. Enjoy. Oh, if anyone is interested, she is Welsh. First Catherine Zeta-Jones,and now Katherine Jenkins. And Cherie, I noticed her eyes first!!!
REQUIEM FOR A SOLDIER
by Amici Forever
You never lived to see
What you gave to me
One shining dream of hope and love
Life and liberty
With a host of brave unknown soldiers
For your company, you will live forever
Here in our memory
In fields of sacrifice
Heroes paid the price
Young men who died for old men's wars
Gone to paradise
We are all one great band of brothers
And one day you'll see we can live together
When all the world is free
I wish you'd lived to see
All you gave to me
Your shining dream of hope and love
Life and liberty
We are all one great band of brothers
And one day you'll see - we can live together
When all the world is free
Cavey, this one is for you!
My favorite picture of Katherine,

ReplyDeleteLovely, isn't she the blonde from the Opera Band Amici Forever? I think I have heard that song sung by them, got a CD somewhere, will go and have a look.
ReplyDelete"And Cherie, I noticed her eyes first!!!"
ReplyDeleteWell John....I believe you...I know that special woman in your life has the most beautiful and kind eyes I've ever seen on a person....the eyes of an angel.
But.....I know it was her breasteses you noticed second...(on both)...
She is absolutely beautiful with a voice to match! Amazing voice.
ReplyDeleteWould love to hear more by her! And will look. (You find good
things when you can't sleep!!!!)
She is one of my favourites - a lovely lady. Don`t know about A Picture of Dorian Gray when you can`t sleep - wouldn`t be my choice!!!
ReplyDelete.....oh and.....soon you'll be able to sleep....all night long.
