Any language, but please translate. Something you listened recently and you really like the lines. share your favorite part.
I don't find many songs i like, but when i do like a song, i like it a lot. and i listen to quite a few different language songs. english, hindi, japanese (anime songs only i confess).
My favorite japanese line from a song would be
"The reason people fall in love is different for every person... more important than the future is the present."
My favorite hindi line from a song would be, (there are too many, but the one i can remember right now is)
"A blanket of flowers seems to have covered these roads of stones, since you've met me, it seems like every scenery has changed to me."
aww.. that is just heart melting. what can i say, i'm a very emotional person.

i got one song that keeps playing in my head - a hit from indonesia.. a band of 3 young, talented boys who are sons of a famous singer.. the band is called 'Lucky Laki' ( Lucky Boys )
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPrKPpj54GU&feature=related
"Aku bukanlah Superman, aku juga bisa nangis.. bila kekasih hatiku meninggalkan aku.."
simply translated :-
I am not Superman, I can / will also cry.. when the love of me heart, leaves me..
the song after goes on like 'my father says boys must not cry, must always be s
strong..'
watch the video.. listen to the song.. it's just a fun song...

I have to be honest and say I didn't hear this quite recently, yet I found this verses of Joan Baez quite ... intersting, at least:
Don't tell me of love everlasting and other sad dreams
I don't want to hear
Just tell me of passionate strangers who rescue eachother
From a lifetime of cares
Because if love means forever, especting nothing returned,
Then I hope I'll be given another lifetime to learn ..

Thank you :-)
The song is "Love song to a stranger (1)", music and lyrics, Joan Baez. 1972.
listen here:

There are both, part one and part 2.
Joan Baez is a woodstock 1969 veteran .. Actually is the only unique LOVE song of her, she is a social singer, shooting against war and injustice ... and a true FREE spirit.
If you want to understand the '60's - '70's spirit .. she's the best guide.

The one that is running through my head right now is from an Aerosmith song. I am not sure what the name of the song is but the lyric that is running through my head is: "I don't want to close my eyes, I don't want to fall asleep cause I'd miss you babe, and I don't want to miss a thing." Arn't those sweet lyrics? Especially coming from a rocker like Steven Tyler. Makes me want to cry.

Mine is a verse from MUCC's "Zetsubou" ("Despair").
Japanese lyrics:
Dosuguroi zetsubou ni kakomarete hisshi ni tsukanda sonote ha
Boroboro ni natte kieta totemo taisetsuna hitono omoide deshita
Kurushinde, kurushinde, kurushinde yando mitsuketa chiisana kibou
Soresaemo ima de ha kusatte shimateru yo
English translation:
Surrounded by a despair deep and dark,
That hand I frantically grabbed onto
Was a memory of someone very dear to me
Torn to tatters until it disappeared.
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts.
At last I found a bit of hope,
But even now that is rotting.
I love this song, and I think it is one of their best. The band's guitarist, Miya, wrote the lyrics and composed the music for it, and I think he is extremely gifted.

Hi
i should say i am a very moody person ... sometimes i like to listen to "sound of muzac" from porcupine tree and a line hit me - "one of the wonders of the world is coming down, one of the blunders of the world no one cares..." ... i found this line pretty interesting, Steven Wilson is an awesome song writer... i just like to listen to many his songs and to his band Porcupine Tree.
another one by U2 from the song "man and a women" - "True love never can be rent
But only true love can keep beauty innocent
I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance"
in fact there are many other songs too

This is my favorite line right now, from Lost In Blue by Nightmare (japanese band)
" I want to disappear. But I cannot. But still I want to." This was always cruel and hurtful, but it couldn't be erased. Have you had enough? More than enough! Thank you and Goodbye!
You can try listening to it search them on youtube. Nightmare - Lost In blue :)

That really is a great song. Nightmare has been a favourite of mine for quite a few years. They always have wonderful music.

hi I heard a song that touched me so when I find a problem that
I c annot do anything about, I remember this: Mother mary speaking words of wisdom, let it be. Let it be, let it be. You know
sometimes a situation is thus that the best thing you can do is
just let it be. The song is very simple but it struck a chord with me. So when I find something I can do nothing about I just remember that song, and I just let it be. works for me.

One song that means a lot to me is "Take Our Chances" by Hanson...it talks of the world today and they arent afraid to say...well, sing...the truth.
We're the generation of the silver spoon
No one can create but we can still consume
Now we're all just suits for the next board room
We're you quarterly reports
So come again and see results
Is passion just a last resort?
But it don't even matter now cause the time has come
welcome to the world it'll let you down
The time has come for you to live it up let it go
Show them what you're made of
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong
And we'll take our chances
We've got something that you can't refuse
A 50 foot monkey on the evening news
So pull up your chair and kick off your shoes
The new tech boom's fighting the RIAA
Got the kids downloading and refusing to pay
Cause they don't like the music that the radio plays
But it don't even matter now
No it don't even matter now cause the time has come
Welcome to the world it'll let you down
Said the time has come for you to live it up let it go
Show them what you're made of
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
The USA's got a freedom of choice
So call up your congressman abuse your voice
Cause everybody's bashing on the fighting boys
So we'll save democracy with war machines
Cause you can't ignore it in the name of peace
And the rest of our money goes to New Orleans.
But it don't even matter now
No it don't even matter now
No it don't even matter now cause the time has come
Welcome to the world has it let you down
The time has come you've got to live it up let it go
Show them what you're made of
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong

I apologize. I did not mean to boast themselves.
But I like my songs, that I write 1 year ago.
The contents include:
Life is full of mystery;
See happy people, make jealous;
See troubled people, make proud;
When happy, forget themselves;
When hard, not grateful;
Life is full of mystery,
or we are not the clever.
Sorry, it's many lines...

One line that I really like is from the song 'Read My Mind' by The Killers.
"The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds, cut out of the sun."
It has no special significance to me, but the imagery presented is just fantastic.
