This is a song that I feel fits well with the Dollanganger saga, namely Chris's feelings
about Cathy...
"Wonderwall"
by Oasis
Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you gotta
do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now
Back beat, the word is on the street that the fire
in your heart is
out
I'm sure you've heard it all before but you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody
feels the way I do about you now
And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there
are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how
Because maybe
You're gonna
be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall
Today was gonna be the day but they'll never throw it
back to you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you
now
And all the roads that lead you there were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are
many things that I would like to say to you
But I don't know how
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves
me
And after all
You're my wonderwall
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're
my wonderwall
I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're
gonna be the one that saves me
This song describes the pain that was felt when Carrie committed suicide...
"Black Balloon" by the Goo Goo Dolls
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
'Cause
you were the same as me
But on your knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I
saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb
Comin' down the world turned
over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer
You know
the lies that they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room
Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without
you there
And I go on as you get colder
And theres no time left for losin'
When you stand they fall
Comin' down
the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you grow colder
All because I'm
Comin'
down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on to bring you home
All because I'm
All
because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me
This song reminds me of Cathy's love for Bart and her desire to be with him, even though he's married
to Corrine...
"To Love You More" by Celine Dion
Take me back in the arms I love
Need me like you did before
Touch me once again
And remember when
There was
no one that you wanted more
Don't go you know you will break my heart
She won't love you like I will
I'm the
one who'll stay
When she walks away
And you know I'll be standing here still
I'll be waiting for you
Here
inside my heart
I'm the one who wants to love you more
You will see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me
be the one to love you more
See me as if you never knew
Hold me so you can't let go
Just believe in me
I
will make you see
All the things that your heart needs to know
I'll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I'm
the one who wants to love you more
You will see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you
more
And some way all the love that we had can be saved
Whatever it takes we'll find a way
I'll be waiting
for you
Here inside my heart
I'm the one who wants to love you more
You will see I can give you
Everything you
need
Let me be the one to love you more
This song was parodied by Cathy in Flowers in the Attic...
"Bill Bailey" by Louis Armstrong
Won’t you come home, bill bailey, won’t you come
home
I’ve moaned the whole night long
I’ll do the cookin’, honey, I’ll pay the rent
I know
I done you wrong
You remember that rainy evenin’
I threw you out....with nothin’ but a fine tooth comb
Ya,
I know I’m to blame, now... ain’t it a shame
Bill bailey, won’t you please come home
(instrumental
break)
Won’t you come home, bill bailey, won’t you come on home
I’ve moaned that whole day long
I’ll
do all the cookin’ honey, I’ll even pay the rent
I know, that I have done you, oh so, wrong
You remember
that rainy evenin’
I throwed you out, with nothin but a fine tooth comb
I know I’m to blame, now... ain’t
it a shame
So baby, won’t you please come
I said now, won’t you please come
Bill bailey, won’t
you please.... come on home
This song was referenced to in FITA...
"Ballerina" by Nat King Cole
Dance, ballerina, dance
And do your pirouette in rhythm with your achin' heart
Dance, ballerina, dance
You mustn't
once forget a dancer has to dance the part
Whirl, ballerina, whirl
And just ignore the chair that's empty in the
second row
This is your moment, girl
Although he's not out there applauding as you steal the show
Once you said
his love must wait its turn
You wanted fame instead
I guess that's your concern
We live and learn
And love
is gone, ballerina, gone
So on with your career, you can't afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand
people here have come to see the show
As 'round and 'round you go
So ballerina, dance
Dance, dance!
<instrumental
interlude>
Whirl ballerina
<instrumental interlude>
Once you said his love must wait its turn
You
wanted fame instead
I guess that's your concern
We live and learn
And love is gone, ballerina, gone
So on
with your career, you can't afford a backward glance
Dance on and on and on
A thousand people here have come to see
the show
As 'round and 'round you go
So ballerina, dance
Dance
Songs for the Casteel saga...
I just HAD to have this song, because for
some reason it reminds me of Heaven and Troy...
"Now and Forever" by Richard Marx
Whenever I'm weary
From the battles that raged in my head
You
made sense of madness
When my sanity hangs by a thread
I lose my way, but still you
Seem to understand
Now and
Forever,
I will be your man
Sometimes I just hold you
Too caught up in me to see
I'm holding a fortune
That
Heaven has given to me
I'll try to show you
Each and every way I can
Now and Forever,
I will be your man
Now
I can rest my worries
And always be sure
That I won't be alone, anymore
If I'd only known you were there
All the
time,
All this time.....
Until the day the ocean
Doesn't touch the sand
Now and Forever
I will be your
man
Now and Forever,
I will be your man...
