Here come my favourite artists and songs of all time and I'd like to share with you.
Fundamentally this thread serves as a meditation studio for myself as well as for like-minded fellow FreeOzers.
A movie of Edith Piaf's life story
(La vida en rose - No Regret in French)
Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast, this is la vie en rose
When you kiss me, Heaven sighs, and though I close my eyes, I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart, I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak, Angels sing from above
Every day words seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me, and life will always be, La vie en rose
I thought that love was just a word, they sang about in songs I heard
It took your kisses to reveal, that I was wrong, and love is real
Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast, this is la vie en rose
When you kiss me, Heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes, I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart, a world where roses bloom
And when you speak, Angels sing from above
Every day words, seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me, And life will always be, La vie en rose
There's a place in your heart, and I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try, You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel, There's no hurt or sorrow
There are ways to get there, If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, Make a better place
Heal the world,Make it a better place
For you and for me, And the entire human race
There are people dying, If you care enough for the living
Make it a better place, For you and for me
If you want to know why, There's love that cannot lie
Love is strong,It only cares of joyful giving
If we try we shall see, In this bliss we cannot feel Fear of dread
We stop existing and start living, The it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing, So make a better world
...
Sometimes I get to feelin'
I was back in the old days, long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect, you know?
The days were endless, we were crazy, we were young
The sun was always shinin', we just lived for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately, I just don't know
The rest of my life's been, just a show
Those are the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true
When I look and I find I still love you
You can't turn back the clock, you can't turn back the tide
Ain't that a shame?
Ooh, I'd like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use in sitting and thinkin' on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately, I just don't know
Better sit back and go, with the flow
These are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now but some things remain
When I look and I find, no change
Those were the days of our lives, yeah
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing's still true
When I look and I find, I still love you
I still love you

There must be more to life than this
There must be more to life than this
How do we cope in a world without love
Mending all those broken hearts
And tending to those crying faces
There must be more to life than killing
A better way for us to survive
What good is life, in the end we all must die
There must be more to life than this
Why is this world so full of hate
People dying everywhere
And we destroy what we create
People fighting for their human rights
But we just go on saying c'est la vie
So this is life
There must be more to life than living
There must be more than meets the eye
There must be more to life than this
Traveller
Chris Stapleton
I see the sunrise creeping in
Everything changes like the desert wind
Here she comes and then she's gone again
I'm just a traveler on this earth
Sure as my heart's behind the pocket of my shirt
I'll just keep rolling till I'm in the dirt
'Cause I'm a traveler, oh, I'm a traveler
I couldn't tell you honey, I don't know
Where I'm going but I've got to go
'Cause every turn reveals some other road
And I'm a traveler, oh, I'm a traveler
My heartbeat's rhythm is a lonesome sound
Just like the rubber turning on the ground
Always lost and nowhere bound
I'm just a traveler on this earth
Sure as my heart's behind the pocket of my shirt
I'll just keep rolling till I'm in the dirt
'Cause I'm a traveler, oh, I'm a traveler
I couldn't tell you honey, I don't know
Where I'm going but I've got to go
'Cause every turn reveals some other road
And I'm a traveler, oh, I'm a traveler
When I'm gone
Somebody else will have to feel this wrong
Somebody else will have to sing this song
Somebody else will have to sing along
Sing along
I'm just a traveler on this earth
Sure as my heart's behind the pocket of my shirt
I'll just keep rolling till I'm in the dirt
'Cause I'm a traveler, oh, I'm a traveler
I couldn't tell you honey, I don't know
Where I'm going but I've got to go
'Cause every turn reveals some other road
And I'm a traveller, oh, I'm a traveller
Life Is a Highway
Tom Cochrane
Life's like a road that you travel on
When there's one day here and the next day gone
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind
There's a world outside every darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
Where the brave are free and lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore
We won't hesitate, break down the garden gate
There's not much time left today
Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I want to drive it all night long
Through all these cities and all these towns
It's in my blood and it's all around
I love you know like I loved you then
This is the road and these are the hands
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights
Knock me down get back up again
You're in my blood I'm not a lonely man
There's no load I can't hold
Road so rough, this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Tell 'em we're survivors
Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I want to drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I want to drive it all night long
There was a distance between you and I
A misunderstanding once but now
We look it in the eye
There's no load I can't hold
Road so rough this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Tell 'em we're survivors
Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I want to drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I want to drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I want to ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I want to drive it all night long

Upon her husband's death, she's not only inherited his fortune also finds/re-discover? her true love in the end. The couple were set apart once upon a time for whatever the reasons were. The important point to address is they now find each other again.The story of itself is nothing new but a tale of seizing the second chance in life.
The conduction by Franz Lehar, an Austro-Hungarian composer, was a great hit at its time specifically in its music and the theatre effect. It has become popular since then.
