OK, not actual humour, but I was asked by a radio station today while doing an interview about Phoenix if there was a song that would be appropriate to the story about water being confirmed on Mars.
I came across a song lyric that while not ideal, had some of the key words.
The song is by Dan Fogelberg and it's caled Phoenix. I have no idea what it sounds like, but if anyone is interested here's a link to his
website.
Phoenix I have cried too...I have cried too long
No more sorrow...got to carry on
Found deep water before I'd even learned to swim
Never thought I'd see the sun again
Once I was a...once I was a man alone
Now I've found a heart to call my home
Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames
No more living someone else's dreams
I have cried too...I have cried too long
No more sorrow...got to carry on
You almost had me, old lady
You almost tied me down good
You played the lady in waiting
And I waited as long as I could
Too long the songs have been silent
Too long the strings have been still
I never knew what you wanted
And I guess that I never will
Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames
No more living someone else's dreams
I have cried too...I have cried too long
No more sorrow...got to carry on
EDIT: I think this will work, it's a link to hear the
song. Note: It is a pop-up page from the Rhapsody website, so you may have to set your browser to allow for it.
