Posted: 4/29/05 at 4:01pmI love "You'll Never Walk Alone". I want to do that for my graduation. I think it would be perfect for what you need.

The lyrics may be a little too “one-on-one” to direct to your hometown crowd, but how about “Goodbye For Now,” Sondheim’s theme to “Reds?” That last line (“somehow each hello, makes it worth goodbye”) is heartbreakingly perfect.
Liz Callaway does a flawless version on the “Unsung Sondheim” album.

3. "I love shrubs that are historical." -Johnny and The Sprites

5. "The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours." -The History Boys
6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

"Saying Goodbye" is seriously one of the biggest tear-jerker songs I have ever heard. I lost my dog of 13 years a couple years ago and right after heard that song for the first time. I bawled for at least an hour.
I might have a copy of it on my computer that I can send you if you still need it.

Posted: 7/4/05 at 12:43pmI have Saying Goodbye in a book "The Greatest Kid Songs Ever"..published by Hal Leonard. It's just the sheet music, not an arrangement, but I've used it for 5th grade end of the year type things...although with the particular group I had singing it, I couldn't wait until they left...LOL!
