This deserves a place in here I think. :)

Beyoncé - I Was Here

Lyrics:

I wanna leave my footprints on the sands of time,

Know there was something that, meant something that I left behind,

When I leave this world, I'll leave no regrets,

Leave something to remember, so they won't forget,

I was here...

I lived, I loved.

I was here...

I did, I've done, everything that I wanted,

And it was more than I thought it would be,

I will leave my mark so everyone will know,

I was here...

I want to say I lived each day, until I died,

I know that I meant something in, somebody's life,

The hearts I have touched, will be the proof that I leave,

That I made a difference, and this world will see,

I was here...

I lived, I loved,

I was here...

I did, I've done, everything that I wanted,

And it was more than I thought it would be,

I will leave my mark so everyone will know,

I was here!

I lived! I loved!

I was here!

I did! I've done! Everything that I wanted!

And it was more than I thought it would be!

I will leave my mark so everyone will know!

I was here!

I just want them to know,

That I gave my all, did my best,

Brought someone some happiness,

Left this world a little better just because...

I was here...

I was here!

I lived! I loved!

I was here!

I did! I've done! Everything that I wanted!

And it was more than I thought it would be!

I will leave my mark so everyone will know!

I was here!

I lived! (I lived!)

I loved!

I was here!

I did! (I did!)

I've done!

I was here!

I lived! (I lived!)

I loved! (I loved!)

I was here!

Oh! I did! I've done!

I was here...

I love this thread!

Some of the music/bands posted here are also faves of mine. I'm a fan of female fronted metal in general but I also like some quieter songs and artists to balance things out. Alas most of my current favourite songs that can be found on YouTube don't have very exciting video clips to go with them, so here's an older fave of mine from 3 or so years ago.

Sleepthief (feat. Jody Quine) - Tenuous

Not a music video per se, but rather a 15 minute video taken from an acoustic recording session by one of my favourite Symphonic Metal bands, Epica. The session was released in their 2004 "We Will Take You With Us" EP and includes three acoustic versions of the songs Feint, Run for a Fall, and Memory (cover of the song from the musical "Cats").

This is such a sad song.....it's very beautiful and touching, the very last line though......is heartrenching. One single line makes the whole song sad at the last moment. Shows the power of a single line of a song and how it can affect the rest of the song's message. Don't listen to this if you don't want to be upset, I just thought I'd share it because some people might want to listen to it.

Lyrics:

Ed Sheeran - Small Bump

You’re just a small bump unborn in four months you’re brought to life,

You might be left with my hair but you’ll have your mother’s eyes,

I’ll hold your body in my hands, be as gentle as I can,

But for now you’re a scan of my unmade plans,

A small bump in four months you brought to life,

And I’ll whisper quietly and give you nothing but truth,

If you’re not inside me, I’ll put my future in you.

You are my one and only,

And you can wrap your fingers round my thumb,

And hold me tight,

You are my one and only,

You can wrap your fingers round my thumb,

And hold me tight,

And you’ll be alright.

You’re just a small bump, I know you’ll grow into your skin,

With a smile like hers and a dimple beneath your chin,

Fingernails the size of a half grain of rice,

And eyelids closed to be soon open wide,

A small bump, in four months you’ll open your eyes,

And I’ll hold you tightly and tell you nothing but truth,

If you’re not inside me, I’ll put my future in you.

You are my one and only,

And you can wrap your fingers round my thumb,

And hold me tight,

You are my one and only,

And you can wrap your fingers round my thumb,

And hold me tight,

And you’ll be alright.

Then you can lie with me, with your tiny feet,

When you’re half asleep I’ll leave you be,

Right in front of me, for a couple weeks,

So I can keep you safe.

‘Cause you are my one and only,

You can wrap your fingers round my thumb,

And hold me tight,

You are my one and only,

You can wrap your fingers round my thumb,

And hold me tight,

And you’ll be alright.

‘Cause you were just a small bump unborn for four months, then torn from life,

Maybe you were needed up there but we’re still unaware as why.

Marina & The Diamonds - Fear & Loathing

I lived a lot of different lives,

Been different people many times,

I lived my life in bitterness,

And filled my heart with emptiness.

And now I see, I see it for the first time,

There is no crime in being kind,

Not everyone is out to screw you over,

Maybe, yeah just maybe, they just wanna get to know you.

And now the time is here,

Baby, you don't have to live your life in fear,

And the sky is clear,

Is clear of fear.

Don't wanna live in fear and loathing,

I want to feel like I am floating,

Instead of constantly exploding,

In fear and loathing.

Got different people inside my head,

I wonder which one that they like best,

I'm done with trying to have it all,

And ending up with not much at all.

Now the time is here,

Baby, you don't have to live your life in fear,

And the sky is clear,

Is clear of fear, of fear.

Don't wanna live in fear and loathing,

I want to feel like I am floating,

Instead of constantly exploding,

In fear and loathing.

And when the time comes along and the lights run out,

I know a light will burn on when they blow me out.

Ed Sheeran - Small Bump

And another sad song about loneliness, being afraid that you can't trust anyone to be your friend, and finally deciding to overcome that fear and take your chance at living happier and free of...fear and loathing.

Another 2006 song... this time by Blackmore's Night (formed by Ritchie Blackmore - ex member of Deep Purple and Rainbow - and his wife Candice Night). This isn't an official video for the song, but rather one made by a small small video production company from the Netherlands for a competition in 2009.

Blackmore's Night - World of Stone

Two more Epica songs. Sorry for the Epica overload, but I didn't see any of their songs in this or the previous music video thread. :P

First, one of their older songs which also happens to be a favourite of mine, and the second is their first single from their latest (2012) album (warning: there are some male growls in this one - albeit fleeting).

Epica - Solitary Ground

Epica - Storm The Sorrow

Florence + The Machine live at the Bestival Festival on the Isle of Wight last night.....amazing! :woohoo:

There's the video of the full performance, which has a lot of terrible lag, and then there's 5 videos of songs from the performance that don't have any lag issues, that's all that's been uploaded. :)

Two songs from Dutch symphonic metal band Delain (the band was formed by former Within Temptation keyboardist Martijn Westerholt in 2002). First, the second single off their latest album (2012) and then an older fave of mine from 2006.

Delain - We Are The Others

Delain - See me in Shadow
