...I prefer "Time in a Bottle"...I listened to it when we were burying my dog this summer...it instills a lot of emotion in me. That and ANYTHING by Simon and Garfunkle.

Oooh, *love* all three!
Erin

Indeed! Three very beautiful songs.

That and ANYTHING by Simon and Garfunkle.

Amen to that! Though actually my favorite song at the moment is probably "Into the West" from "Return of the King."

The first time I heard Imagine by John Lennon was about a week ago Sunday during the Quantum Leap leap day marathon on SciFi Channel. There's an episode where Sam leaps into himself when he was 16 and he tells his family he's from the future. His sister wants to know what happened to the Beatles, and rather than tell her about John's being killed, he sang her his favorite song, Imagine.

I love it.

That is so weird, that's the first time I heard it too!!!! I distinctly remember it, though I was probably about 8 or 9 at the time. That was a really good episode, and a really powerful moment. I credit that show with introducing me to "Imagine" as well as the word "magnanimous," which my dad used to describe Sam-as-Elvis joining a singer in her performance of "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" when she broke down and couldn't continue... Anyway, I can't believe you never heard that song before now! You've been missing out!

And then I heard it today on the radio, too. Weird, huh? Hehe.

Me too. "Into the west" and the song Pippin sings. I don't know the name of it. But anyway, Billy Boyd has a fantastic voice.

I always associate "Imagine" with that episode of Quantum Leap as well. I think I'd heard it before, but it really made an impression there...
