Best songs or best parts of songs Sarah has ever did

Post by Luus81 » Mon May 18, 2020 7:13 pm

Please tell me, which songs or parts of the songs are the best or the most beautiful Sarah has ever (co-)written and/or sung?

Here’s mine…

Possession
This is definitely one of the best songs that Sarah has written and sung. I can’t choose which version I like the most: the original version or the piano version. I’m happy with the live version like Sarah did on Afterglow Live; starting with a piano version and then turn into the original version. I so ab-so-lu-ty love that version!


Angel
No words needed, I think??


Answer
I like the version on Afterglow Live. The way Sarah performs this song, so beautiful. These parts give me goosebumps:

“If it takes my whole life
I won’t break, I won’t bend
It’ll all be worth it, worth it in the end
‘Cause I can only tell you what I know
That I need you in my life
When the stars have all gone out
You’ll still be burning so bright”

“Cast me gently into morning
For the night has been unkind”



Song For My Father
This song means a lot to me ... 5 years ago my father passed away very suddenly. I loved my dad, he was my rock. I really still miss him. The first time I heard this song, I just felt it in my bones. It made me cry. I can most identify with these parts:

“How I wish that I could tell you
It’s to you that I would run
You were the place that I could always rest my head
When my world had come undone”

“Oh I hope that you can hear me
Through the ravages of time
You have carried me though more than you could know
I still feel your hand in mine”



This so far I already wanted to share with you. More will follow... :)
You're so beautiful with an edge and charm
But so careful when I'm in your arms

A shout out to I Will Remember You! Another song which I like very much... Especially the Mirrorball version. I can watch this clip over and over again.

I have two favorite songs, Sweet Surrender and Don't Give Up On Us. I don't know why, I just love them :)
I couldn't say which parts of songs I prefer though! :lol:

For me it’s:

Dirty Little Secret
Possession, definitely the piano version.
Love Come, again piano version.
Tunnel of Love

Another strong contender, but not in the same league as the above “Song for my father”. I too lost my father just 7 years ago. I still think of him, and I hope that he was as proud of me as I was of him.

Best part of a song!
That would have to be “There is a love that’s inherently given...” from Wait.

Don’t as me to quantify those choices, I can’t.

Finally, there is the very first airing of Possession as a download from Ellie. It’s good. Download it and let me know hat you think.

Yeah, I have the same.... I like that song so much, and indeed, when I hear Sarah sing this, it gives me goosebumps.

Yes, that’s the one.
Didn’t realise that this was on YouTube.

Last few weeks I was so into this song: I Love You.
I kept watching the Mirrorball version and I found out how amazing this performance is. It's almost haunting...
And the lyrics.... Everytime I hear this, I get goosebumps. *sigh*

(BTW, the whole Mirrorball DVD is so amazing, one of the best concerts I've ever heard and seen.)
