Another song-related request

Here are a few that I used in scrapbooks for my kids....so they come immediately to mind:

Green Day's "Time of Your Life" (always makes
me cry when I hear the lyrics)

John Fogerty's "Centerfield"

John Lennon's "Beautiful Boy"

John Lennon's "In My Life"

Kenney Roger's World's Greatest is another one.

Lafmom...you beat me to the punch...I was JUST going to add Kenny Roger's "The Greatest" too! Here are a couple more:

Stand by me (John Lennon)

Lean on Me (??? Al Jarreau???)

You've Got a Friend (James Taylor)

Forever Young (Rod Stewart)

Forever Young (Bob Dylan)

I second luvbb's recommendation of Green Day's "Time of Your Life"......son's junior year they ended the '04 season baseball video with this song...it still makes me cry when I watch it....and we get to this last song......

Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don’t ask why
It’s not a question
But a lesson learned in time
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of
Good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it’s worth
It was worth all the while
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

.........Good luck Puma1....sounds like a great gift....

Thanks you all so much. I'm going to use a few of them so if you think of any more, don't hesitate to let me know. I used the Green Day on a baseball summer scrapbook a few years ago when it first came out, but I may have to use it again because it is just soooo perfect!
Thanks again...keep 'em coming!

A-red,

Thanks alot for posting those lyrics....you are making me CRY!!!!

Don't know the artist but what about "Glory Days"?

FBM,

You will smack yourself in the forehead when you read this, because OF COURSE you knew who the artist was and just forgot for a moment...THE BOSS - Bruce Springsteen! He is so cool!

Songs I have used on DVD's for friends w/photos have been:

R. Kelly's World's Greatest (from the Lion King) Great song if you haven't heard it.

Forever Young by Rod Stewart

We are Family by Sister Sledge (dating myself)

100 Years by Five for Fighting

Through the Years by Kenny Rogers

Fanfare for the Common Man by the the London Sym. (song from Chariots of fire)

Celebration by Kool and the Gang

The Green Day song I use all the time is called Suite Pee put I think it is also the same that is mentioned here.

These work if you are using music not sure if you are just using lyrics.

Good Luck and enjoy.
