Answer 2

Hello (Lionel Richie song)

"Hello" is a song by Lionel Richie. It was released as a single in 1984 and reached number one in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and UK singles chart.

Arguably the music video attracted more attention than the song, for its story of a blind arts student sculpting a likeness of Richie's head. The video has been parodied a number of times including a Starburst commercial when the sculpture is made from Starburst.

The song is particularly memorable for the line "Hello, is it me you're looking for?" In an interview broadcast in the UK on Channel 4's Top 100 Number One Hits, Richie said he had been thanked by a large number of normally tongue-tied men who had proposed marriage after a slow dance to the song.

It was featured in the 2005 film The 40-Year-Old Virgin, as well as Roman Polański's 1992 film Bitter Moon. Also, the Disney TV special DTV Valentine featured a music video of the song set to the "Twitterpated" scene from Bambi.

Answer 3

The Hallelujah Chorus (which most classical music critics would agree is the greatest chorus of all time), by George Frederic Handel.

"Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!"

A lot of the rest of it has those same words, and there are other phrases added. It really is the greatest chorus I've ever had the privilege to sing. It's a tradition at my high school for all 3 choirs to sing it together at the Christmas concert, and we're accompanied by the advanced orchestra. It's amazing just being part of the wall of sound.

Answer 5

I work in aged care so I know a lot of old songs, but my favorite is Danny Boy, it was written in 1910. Here is the first verse.
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.

Answer 6

The very first song I remember singing out loud when I was little was *Delta Dawn* sang Tanya Tucker....my dad says I would just sit on the swing set and sing it at the top of my lungs.....

Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
And did I hear you say he was a-meeting you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky..

Answer 7

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,
Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer. "

God Bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home
