I Dreamed A Dream

This song is by far the GREATEST song I have ever heard. I sang this song with my high school choir in my junior year, and even then I could feel the power of this song.



This song, by Joseph M. Martin, is about a man who has a dream that there is no music, no sound, and no happiness. The world in his dream crushes every hint of song a spirit. And when he wakes up from his nightmare, he sings (I would probably scream) praise to the "Giver of the song."

**Hint: notice how "Giver" is capitalized.

And the most important line, or at least the focal point of the song, is "Let music never die in me, forever let my spirit sing." Meaning that if he were not able to sing, his spirit would "wither and die."

I kinda totally agree with Joseph M. Martin.
