kitty you must see the movie if you haven't seen it "Up".

And speaking rivers grin I've been listening to "The Rose" again recently - some saylove, it is a river (sob), don't know why, and found this ancient recording by Conway Twittty:

Has any one else dissolved in tears listening to this song? I love songs that tell a story and so listen very carefully to the lyrics. Each time this song comes on, it makes me cry and I really can't decide whether it is really good or really bad. sad

Another one that gets me at the moment is Don Henley singing 'Take a picture of this' and, as for Meatloaf singing, 'Is nothing Sacred Anymore?', well.... sad
