Whoa, cue the Twilight Zone theme.


Some great songs there- My Immortal is one of my favorites, as well. Amy Lee has a beautiful voice.

I love violins in a song, too (can you tell? lol). It totally makes this version on Racing in the Street for me (I'll add that I think the visuals here are stunning):

When I started this thread, I was actually thinking more of musical moments than lyrics, but that works, too. I could go on and on with my favorite lyrics, and most of them would probably be Steinman or Springsteen, but I'll list a couple.

My number one is probably "I bet you've still got a trace of his love in your eyes, and you've still got his eyes on your mind".

From Bruce's For You, there's the line, "You could laugh and cry in a single sound".

From Racing... above, there's:

"She stares off alone into the night with the eyes of one who hates for just being born" and

"For all the shut down strangers and hot rod angels
Rumbling through this promised land
Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
And wash these sins off our hands"

From The Promise

"When the promise is broken you go on living
But it steals something from down in your soul
Like when the truth is spoken and it don't make no difference
Something in your heart goes cold"

I could put the whole song here, really.

There's many more...
