there's one song, mirage d'amour, i learned it so long ago, but its still my favorite song. it reminds me of nighttime, for some reason. like, a really clear night. lovely.

Answer 2

Ah, Ryan, what a good question. that's demanding to opt for purely some favorites that were continuously ignored, yet I nominate top the following: a million) Felix Mendelssohn's "Symphony No 2 " (Choral Symphony)...a captivating artwork, exceptionally the choral area; yet eclipsed through his more desirable commonly used works, that's seldom performed stay...sigh. 2) Edward Elgar's "Enigma ameliorations", exceptionally the very transferring Nimrod area...only impressive! frequently heard now purely on Classical Radio call-in shows extremely than on degree..what a loss. and do not get me began on the regrettably- ignored music of yank composer Edward McDowel, that tremendous music lyricist of twentieth century piano literature, (whos music is so nicely transcribable for traditional guitar, too). that is an illustration of the cases, i think, that many music directors in the course of the U. S. and elsewhere have deliberately prevented the more desirable available works (ie..strong melodic content fabric) in choose of more desirable esoteric compositions, labeling the former as fairly unsophisticated. nicely, if the music of Tchaikovsky and Dvorak is for the unsophisticated, then i wager i'd be sitting crimson-confronted in the front row.

Answer 5

"Someone To Watch Over Me", either the version of Ella Fitzgerald or Sting's rendition.

There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he/she turns out to be
Someone to watch over me

I'm a little lamb that's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me

Although he/she may not be the man/girl some guys/girls think of as handsome
To my heart he/she carries the key
Won't you tell him/her please to put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me
