Father and Son - Cat Stevens

All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

The Right Thing - Daughter

Brother Sparrow - Agnes Obel

Voices in the street,
footsteps on the concrete
Guess I hear just every sound
on the ground
From my window view,
I know a color blue,
that can bite so very hard,
the day apart

Picture fresh as water clear,
days have passed without you here
Street lights dancing on the dark
across the park
Waiting for a word from you,
waiting for a sign or two
Footsteps on the city ground,
you know the sound

Brother Sparrow,
come tomorrow
to my window
Brother Sparrow,
come tomorrow
to my window

And it’s the same old story, window tints and gloves for finger prints
Yeah it’s the same old story, police investigate around the area
Cos it was only yesterday we was playing football in the streets
It was only yesterday none of us could ever come to harm
It was only yesterday life was a touch more sweet
Now I’m sitting here thinking wagwan. (Get me wagwan)

Bob Dylan's 115th Dream

I was riding on the Mayflower
When I thought I spied some land
I yelled for Captain Arab
I have yuh understand
Who came running to the deck
Said, "Boys, forget the whale
Look on over yonder
Cut the engines
Change the sail
Haul on the bowline"
We sang that melody
Like all tough sailors do
When they are far away at sea.

"I think I'll call it America"
I said as we hit the land
I took a deep breath
I fell down, I could not stand.
..

Like A Rolling Stone

We Are Going On a Bear Hunt - Michael Rosen

We're goin' on a bear hunt,
We're going to catch a big one,
I'm not scared
What a beautiful day!
Oh look! It's a wide RIVER.
Can't go OVER it,
Can't go under it,
Can't go THROUGH it,
Got to swim ACROSS it. Splash splosh! Splash splosh! Splash splosh!
..
A forest!
A big dark FOREST.
..
We've got to go through it! Stumble trip! Stumble trip! Stumble trip!

The Wanderer - Dion

Go Places - The New Pornographers

Weather With You - Crowded House

Walking 'round the room singing Stormy Weather
At Fifty Seven Mount Pleasant Street
Well it's the same room, but everything's different
You can fight the sleep, but not the dream

Things ain't cookin' in my kitchen
Strange affliction wash over me
Julius Caesar and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue sky

Well, there's a small boat made of china
It's going nowhere on the mantlepiece
Well, do I lie like a loungeroom lizard
Or do I sing like a bird released?

Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, always take the weather

//News of actress Sharon Stone’s death spread quickly earlier this week causing concern among fans across the world. However the November 2016 report has now been confirmed as a complete hoax and just the latest in a string of fake celebrity death reports. Thankfully, the actress best known for her roles in Casino or Basic Instinct is alive and well.

UPDATE 24/11/2016 : The earlier story seems to be false. (read more).
