dangit everytime i hear this song I start tearing up imagining if and when my Iowa Hawkeyes ever get back to the Final 4. I thought these tears were reserved for the Cubs but now that they won it all, an Iowa final four/rose bowl win would be next major item on sports bucket list.
The ball is tipped And there you are You're running for your life You're a shooting star And all the years No one knows Just how hard you worked But now it shows... (in) One Shining Moment, it's all on the line One Shining Moment, there frozen in time But time is short And the road is long In the blinking of an eye Ah that moment's gone And when it's done Win or lose You always did your best Cuz inside you knew... (that) One Shining Moment, you reached deep inside One Shining Moment, you knew you were alive Feel the beat of your heart Feel the wind in your face It's more than a contest It's more than a race... And when it's done Win or lose You always did your best Cuz inside you knew... (that) One Shining Moment, you reached for the sky One Shining Moment, you knew One Shining Moment, you were willing to try One Shining Moment, you knew One Shining Moment....
Leo Doyle I totally agree. Yes, this is the NCAA basketball National Championship theme. However, someone should make a video of the Cubs entire season, especially all of the playoff series to this song and use the long version of the song. The Cubs team overcame many deficits and obstacles to do the improbable by winning the World Series, especially overcoming a 3-1 deficit when the odds were very much against them. A video of their season to this song would be a great honor to that team and they rightfully deserve it. As the song says paraphrasing, all those years no one knows just how hard they worked, and now it finally shows. I have an idea as to how I would make the video.
