This is a song from the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I was watching it a few weeks ago when the lyrics to this song just jumped right out at me and screamed "DANIEL!!" Literally. ;)

"Lovely, Lonely Man"

This lovely lonely man
I've only known a day
I look at him, and cannot look away
Oh what a love
Oh what a lovely lonely man

I've met so many men
So easy to forget
I thought I'd grown immune to them
And yet
He's such a love
He's such a lovely lonely man

How did he touch my heart
How did this feeling start
This glow that feels so warm inside
This sudden summer storm inside

My life now has a plan
To someday make him see
That I need him as much as he needs me
Oh what a love
Oh what a lovely lonely man

My life now has a plan
To someday make him see
That I need him as much as he needs me
Oh what a love
Oh what a lovely lonely man
Oh how I love this one and only man

I used to think this would make the perfect post-Meridian vid, but now I think post-Heroes would work better... or both!

"Yesterday" sung by various artists over the years

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

"White Flag" by Dido (don't you think this song has the perfect lyrics to describe how we feel about the D/J ship? "I will go down with this ship! I won't put my hands up and surrender!" Dan/Jan forever, woo hoo! :)

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you
I'll tell you that
But if I didn't say it
Well, I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess
And destruction to come back again
And I caused but nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of 'It's over'
Then I'm sure that that makes sense

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
As I'm sure we will
All that was then
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

"The Reason" by Hoobastank

I'm not a perfect person
as many things I wish I didn't do
but I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
and so I have to say before I go
that I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
to change who I used to be
a reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
it's something I must live with everyday
and all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
and be the one who catches all your tears
that's why I need you to hear

I've found a resaon for me
to change who I used to be
a reason to start over new
and the reason is you
and the reason is you
and the reason is you
and the reason is you

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
and so I have to say before I go
that I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
to change who I used to be
a reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
a side of me you didn't know
a reason for all that I do
and the reason is you

Post-Heroes vid:

"Beautiful"
sung by Amy Grant or ? (I know someone else recorded it but I don't know who!)

I'm looking for a way to feel you hold me
Feel your heart beat
Just one more time
Reaching back trying to touch the moment
Each precious minute
That you were mine

How do you prepare when you love someone this way
To let them go a little more each day

The stars we put in place
The dreams we didn't waste
The sorrows we embraced
The world belonged to you and me
The oceans that we crossed
The innocence we lost
The hurting at the end
I'd go there again
'Cause it was beautiful
It was beautiful

Some days missing you is overwhelming
When it hits me
You're not coming back
And in my darkest hours I have wondered
Was it worth it
For the time we had

My thoughts get kind of scattered but one thing I know is true
I bless the day that I found you

The stars we put in place
The dreams we didn't waste
The sorrows we embraced
The world belonged to you and me
The oceans that we crossed
The innocence we lost
The hurting at the end
I would go there again
'Cause it was beautiful
It was beautiful

The rules we stepped aside
The fear that we defied
The thrill of the ride
The fire in our hearts that burned
The oceans that we crossed
The innocence we lost
The hurting at the end
I'd go there again
'Cause it was beautiful
It was beautiful

Challenge #5

Ok ever since i read the spoilers (for Heroes) i thought this would make a great vid, so i am am down on me knees begging for someone to make it...and i will keep asking, bugging, nagging...please please please,

I've put the words here, the song is called 'I Wanna Grow Old With You' by Westlife.

Another day
Without your smile
Another day just passes by
But now I know
How much it means
For you to stay
Right here with me

The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can't take it any longer

I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing everything you do
I wanna grow old with you

A thousand miles between us now
It causes me to wonder how
Our love tonight remains so strong
It makes our risk right all along

The time we spent apart will make our love grow stronger
But it hurt so bad I can't take it any longer

I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing everything you do
I wanna grow old with you

Things can come and go I know but
Baby I believe
Something's burning strong between us
Makes it clear to me

I wanna grow old with you
I wanna die lying in your arms
I wanna grow old with you
I wanna be looking in your eyes
I wanna be there for you
Sharing everything you do
I wanna grow old with you

So i'm begging some one to make a vid from this song please, demand what you want from me...just please please please

LOTS of luv and REALLY REALLY BIG HUGS

Challenge #4

I know a few of you have been looking for a good song to use for a 2010 vid, and the other day I thought of one!! I've reeeeally wanted to see this made into a Dan/Jan vid, and at first I thought it'd be good for post-Heroes, but then it hit me that it'd be perfect for 2010! It's called Only Time, by Enya. :)

Who can say
Where the road goes
Where the day flows
Only time

And who can say
If your love grows
As your heart chose
Only time

Who can say
Why your heart sighs
As your love flies
Only time

And who can say
Why your heart cries
When your love lies
Only time

Who can say
When the roads meet
That love might be
In your heart

And who can say
When the day sleeps
If the night keeps
All your heart

Night keeps all your heart

Who can say
If your love grows
As your heart chose
Only time

And who can say
Where the road goes
Where the day flows
Only time

Who knows
Only time
Who knows
Only time

If there isn't enough Dan/Jan footage in 2010 to make a whole vid, clips from other eps would be welcome, but pretty please, keep it just Dan/Jan? *bats eyelashes*

*hopes someone will be able to make this vid*

Challenge #2

OK you creative types.....

Someone has just *got* to do a video (post-Meridian or post-Heroes) to the Susan Ashton song "Can't Cry Hard Enough" -- a beautiful song that always makes me cry...

Here are the lyrics:

I'm gonna live my life
Like every day's the last
Without a simple goodbye
It all goes by so fast
And now that you're gone
I can't cry hard enough
No, I can't cry hard enough
For you to hear me now

Gonna open my eyes
And see for the first time
I've let go of you like
A child letting go of his kite
There it goes
Up in the sky
There it goes
Beyond the clouds
For no reason why
I can't cry hard enough
No I can't cry hard enough

For you to hear me now
Gonna look back in vain
And see you standing there
When all that remains
Is just an empty chair
And now that you're gone
I can't cry hard enough
No, I can't cry hard enough

For you to hear me now
There it goes
Up in the sky
There it goes
Beyond the clouds
For no reason why
I can't cry hard enough
No I can't cry hard enough
For you to hear me now

What do you think?
