Favorite track on Signature?

My response has been influenced by: (1) having 1st attended the concert (at which time the album was purchased), (2) hearing some of choices live, (3) Moya's lead in (quips), and (4) the context of the song within the concert's framework.

Now, having said this, the envelope (puhl--leeze!):

The winner is...

1. "Gone Are the Days" (Moya's quip on being young, "...10 years ago..."), followed closely by...

2. "Merry Go Round"

Thanks for your indulgence.

Merry-Go-Round!

When I get my equipment together for my work "Merry Go Round" is one of the songs I listen to strapping on my gear for the long night ahead.

2nd is "I will Find You" and "Tell Me Know (What You See)" from the King Arthur Sound Track. I listen to these a lot when I get to missing my daughters and wondering if I will ever get to see them again.

I love all the songs in that album but Pill a Run O ( I love songs in Irish it's such a beautiful langugage) and Black night are my favourites.

'Pill a Rún Ó' and 'Hidden Stories' are absolutely beautiful. 'Pill a Rún Ó' live almost had me in tears from the sheer beauty of it! Laughing

Currently my favorite song is "Pill a Run O".
I don't know what it is about it ( I think its the fact that it is in Gaelic Very Happy

), but it just moves me deeply.

Wow! Excellent painting, Steph!

I read through the topic and so many defend-able choices can be made from the album!

I chose "No One Talks" because I love the song musically and lyrically. The song immediately inspired me, especially the chorus. The organ gives the song a touch of soul. Lyrically, it has such an encouraging message to lean on during hard times. It just so happens that last night, before reading this topic, I was watching The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. There's a scene in the film in which Frodo and Sam are in Mordor and feeling very much like giving up. Then Sam looks up and sees a tiny bit of blue sky. It restores a bit of their hope and helps them to carry on when all else looks bleak. That's what the song means to me: a tenacious faith that things will get better.
