Mal's Song. It's from the television series "Firefly"- suffice it to say, I love this series. Still haven't watched the follow-up movie "Serenity", can't wait to see it! :)
"When the stars shine bright through the engine's trail
And the dust of another world drops behind
When my ship is free of the open sky
It's a damn good day to my way of mind
There's a barren planet you never can leave
There's a rocky valley where we lost a war
There's a cross once hung round a soldier's neck
There's a man's faith died on Serenity's floor
But I stood my ground and I'll fly once more
It's the last oath that I ever swore
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out into the black
Tell 'em I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
You can't take the sky from me
When you see a man and he's standin' alone
Well you might just take him for an easy mark
And there's many a man has tried his hand
And there's worse than wolves in the borderland dark
From the savage men to the government hounds
Try to take what's yours and tear you through
But them that run with me's got my back
It's a fool don't know that his family's his crew
Don't you tell me what I cannot do
Don't you think I've got to run from you
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out into the black
Tell 'em I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
You can't take the sky from me
When you've walked my road and you've seen what I've seen
Well you won't go talkin' 'bout righteous men
You'll know damn well why I want to keep to my sky
Never cry 'neath nobody's heel again
I've seen torment raked 'cross innocent souls
Seen sane men mad and good men die
I've been hounded, hated, married and tricked
Been tortured, cheated, shot and tied
You won't see no tears when I say goodbye
I've still got my family and my Firefly
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out into the black
Tell 'em I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
You can't take the sky... from me"

I have had this song in my head the past few days and thought I'd share it, seems apt considering the prospective future of the planet.
SARAH MCLACHLAN - WORLD ON FIRE LYRICS
Hearts are worn in these dark ages
You're not alone in these stories pages
The light has fallen amongst the living and the dying
And I'll try to hold it in, yeah, I'll try to hold it in
The world is on fire
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able
I watch the Heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change what's coming
Stay close to me while the sky is falling
I don't wanna be left alone, don't want to be alone
The world is on fire
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able
Hearts break, hearts mend, love still hurts
Visions clash, planes crash
Still there's talk of saving souls
Still the cold is closing in on us
We part the veil on our killer sun
Stray from the straight line on this short run
The more we take the less we become
The fortune of one man means less for some
The world is on fire
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able
The world is on fire
It's more than I can handle
I'll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able

I find instrumental music, particularly soundtracks, most enjoyable. This is one of my favorites, composed by Christopher Franke. It is the end of "Sleeping in Light", the final episode of the Babylon 5 series. Even after 15 years, this music still brings tears to my eyes.

"Xanadu"
'To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise...'
I had heard the whispered tales of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops of eastern lands unknown
Time and Man alone
Searching for the lost Xanadu
Xanadu...
To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise
A thousand years have come and gone but time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in an everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end, weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost
Xanadu
Xanadu...
Held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drunk the milk of Paradise
'To seek the sacred river Alph

To break my fast on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise...'

This is some good stuff, can't beat some real rap/hip-hop! Not often you can find a good MC who talks about real issues as opposed to money. Lots of fake and commercialized artists out there these days, soiling the art. You might like Mos Def and Immortal Technique, Prometeo.

This song is very poetic. It is a critic of this society, money, the circus... A critic of this system.
