Read 'em and Weep

[rockfenris2005]

I don't know if I'm allowed to do this, but the Barry Manilow version of
READ 'EM AND WEEP has a different verse:

"And I´ve been dreamin´ forever hoping something would eventually come
I saw your eyes in the dark I felt your kiss on my lips
And I traced your body in the air until the bodies were numb"

READ 'EM is, by far, the most arousing ML / JS song
I've yet to hear -

[Sapphire Lady]

I agree it's a very arousing song. The references to "the magic our bodies have made" and "the memories still alive in our bed" are really lovely.

Excuse me while I go and take a cold shower ..... :mrgreen:

[Louise]

"the memories still alive in our bed"

Any biological washing powder will get that out! :lol:

[Sapphire Lady]

Yes, very funny. I won't be able to take that line seriously again !!!

[Bart]

What does arousing mean?

All those promises we promised to keep, they won't be kept anymore.

it is my favorite Jim Steinman line.

[Sapphire Lady]

Here is Auntie Sapphire's explanation of arousing: it means awakening or stimulating and usually refers to sexual desire.

Yes, that is a really lovely line. I can see why it's your favourite Bart.

[Michel]

Just use the topic for the song. I'm gonna lock this one.
