We humans of any age or background . . . if we are old enough to love, it is inevitable this song will someday apply to us. And when that time comes, we no longer need feel alone and rejected. In this performance of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s score, with Tim Rice’s lyric, the majestic soprano of Kiri Te Kanawa carries us to a deeper realization. We are made to understand that even failed love, for all its hurt, brings out in us something that beforehand we did not possess. A human with an open heart and the capacity to devote themselves to one other person, even though sometimes unfulfilled 😂, sometimes not 😊, is justified to make the existential declarative statement: “I love, therefore I am.”
Marcus Lovett is an amazing actor and singer. Good person who portrayed Judas Iscariot in the rock opera musical Jesus Christ Superstar by Andrew Lloyd Webber (music) and Tim Rice (lyrics and libretto).
so beautiful Whistle down the wind Let your voices carry Drown out all the rain Light a patch of darkness Treacherous and scary Howl at the stars Whisper when you're sleepy I'll be there you hold you I'll be there to stop The chills and all the weeping Make it clear and strong So the whole night long Every signal that you send Until the very end I will not abandon you my precious friend So try and stand the tide Then you'll raise a banner Send a flare up in the sky Try to burn a torch And try to build a bonfire Every signal that you send Until the very end I'm there So whistle down the wind For I have always been Right there Oh yeah

I remember watching this on dvd so many times as a child, only to repeat this number over and over again. To a tiny musical loving girl with 0 English skills, this was everything to me. I had no clue what she was singing, who she was or where the song came from, to me she was a Disney princess, and I really wanted to be like her one day. I’m now 21, I am absolutely never gonna be as talented as she is, but every time I hear this song I get filled up with nostalgia and calmness❤
The end of the first variation is and has been for years use for the South Bank Show fronted by Melvyn Bragg, FYI the shirt he is wearing is from his love of his football/soccer club Leyton Orient
Another aimless day, another useless night I want peroxide hair, I want some neon light I got a new life waiting, I can't wait to beginning The thing that gets me now, be young in this town is there's no future in it I want a fine perfume, a powder blue Corvette If there's a slower death than living here and now They haven't found it yet I need a man who knows what I am really worth And I don't give a damn about a life after death But I've gotta get some proof that there's a life after birth Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast I need a push-up bra, I need some satin sheets Give me some real rich food, I want some succulant sweets I want you by my side, you'll be all my own I don't know what I want half the time but I know That I don't wanna spend another minute alone Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast Those good girls never know what they're missing but us bad girls almost always do And what we're missing most are the real good times I want them bad and I want 'em now! I was born going faster than the limits allow I want it bad and I want it now We were born going faster than the limits allow Faster than the limits allow Right here, right now Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast I wanna show you what I want you to do, where and when and how I want it bad and I want it now, we were born going faster than the limits allow I wanna show you what I want you to do, where and when and how I want it bad and I want it now, we were born going faster than the limits allow Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast
