Music: The Irrepressibles

Every time I listen to this song I'm simply bowled over by it. If you have not encountered The Irrepressibles before, you're welcome.

These are the lyrics. I think. It's hard to tell in a couple spots.

Show me your reasons to fight
The new world tonight
I will be here by your side
So true
'Cause I can see truth from my eyes
They blinded me with rules from when I was a child
'Cause all around the vain ones decide
The ways in which we live our lives

Show me the truth that you hide
The world needs to know
That there'll be no sacrifice
The love we share has to grow
Take off that burden that burden that was set
There'll be no miracles to make you fit
And look deep into my eyes
You'll see the truth you long to find

And we'll breathe
I'll dream
We'll scream
Louder so we'll be seen

Show me the tears that you cry
Some problems can cut deep inside
But I believe there's ways to climb
Out into another time

And we'll breathe
I'll dream
We'll scream
Louder so we'll be seen

Ah, ah, ah, ah

Breathe

Dream

Ok, so I finally stopped to listen to this (iPhone doesn't always like your embedded videos). I was bowled over. It wasn't Pinkie Pie's "Smile" song, however.

Trollslaying Policy

I like and welcome feedback, including critiques and pushback. In commenting, though, I do ask readers to observe the following guidelines:

1. Please keep in mind that I, and everyone who sees what you have to say, are people, not just words on a screen. I screen the com-box both for my own sake and for that of my readers, some of whom are, I guarantee you, in a painful and confusing place, and don't need people dumping on them, either as individuals or as members of a category of folk.

2. I'm not going to publish comments that consist merely in insults. This is the internet -- which means that if you're having an irrational outburst or suffering from brain spiders or whatever, you're free to take a minute to calm yourself and address things rationally. Take it. You won't regret it. (Corollary: if the blog bores you, don't yawn to me about it -- why waste your own, I presume valuable, time? Go read something you like.)

3. If you disagree with or dislike what I've posted and want to interact on that basis, please do so respectfully. I might still publish your comment even if it's rudely written, if I think you make a worthwhile point; being rude to other commenters, however, is a surefire way to get your remarks deleted.

4. If you wear me to exhaustion or creep me out, yes, I'll ban you. (This ban will be posted in the comments.) I don't have any controls up to tell one user from another, because I don't like to restrict the com-box, so this ban admittedly kinda works on the honor system: I hope readers will have the self-respect to abide by it. If a comment seems recognizably to be from a user I've banned, I'll delete it; my sincere apologies to anyone whose comment is wrongly deleted.
