Songs

I’m sure we all have songs that are very special to us and our loved ones no longer with us. My husband loved to sing my way by Frank Sanatra, months after he passed i was going through his IPad as I knew he wrote his cancer journey there, but i found that he had left a rendition of him singing My Way i cant tell you how this made me feel, but brought so much comfort hearing his voice, he had lost his voice about 3 months before he passed :heart:
A song i have found is from Ghost the musical the song is “With You” it has si much meaning. I listened to the sound track as my daughter is playing Molly later this year and i like to know what she will be singing, i’m glad I listened to the soundtrack especially this song as i have time to prepare myself when i go to the show. She is a beautiful singer and both her dad are very proud of her. She sung at his funeral and it was so special.

I have found it tough to listen to any ‘music’ since August 2023 and particularly find it hard to hear the songs chosen for the funeral service (October 2023) - only very recently been able to listen to Katie Melua: Faraway Voice, I Cried For You, Just Like Heaven.
I have come across other songs, wide-ranging eras, where the lyrics are quite meaningful - which I can mention if anyone would wish me to do so.
Best wishes xx

the one i cant listen to is halleluah by pentenox, dave always used to go on about that song and as much i do like it after reading the lyrics after he died i realised he was trying to tell me something and i am angry that i didnt take any notice at the time. the other songs that were mine and daves were Groovy kind of love and Having my baby, he used to play those when we did the discos back in the 70’s

Mine and Rogers song was The Power of Love by Jennifer Rush.
I didnt have it at the funeral because I didnt want to associate it with that very sad day. I love Please Remember by Leanne Rimes but I can’t listen to it now without breaking down in tears.

Take care
