Disclaimers,
Kudos and notes: All songs are owned

absolutely no claim to them. I make no
money, gold pressed latinum, Republic Daitari, etc from this page. Kudos to the artists of these gorgeous,
lovely, moving and powerful songs.
Music lift’s one’s spirit and your magical melodies have brought me
great joy, love and life.
Apologies
for any mis-typed lyrics and other errors, though I have endeavoured to
transcribe well and give credit.
Please note that I will
remove lyrics if I am asked to do so by the artists and/or studios, in respect

list the track title and links where the songs and albums can be purchased

Notes: I was inspired by my best mate Annie. She made the first Lore tape of songs that
reminded her about Lore. It was so cool
and I loved it so much, I went crazy making my own. I stopped after number 7.
I thought I had finished.
Lore,
on the other had, had other plans … ;)
With
the help of Annie, Red Skye and Lyric websites, I have transcribed each of the
songs (bar the instrumental ones, of course) and given my feelings on how the
songs and pieces relate to Lore and/or Data.
Some serious, some moving, some silly and funny, some promiscuous J and some well just felt right!
Rating
M –For a few naughtie songs!! ;)

LYRICS TO YOU SAY TOMATO, I SAY TOMAYTO …
1. GO WEST (The Pet Shop Boys, 1993)
Together, we will go away
Together, we will leave some day
Together, your hand in my hand
Together, we will make our plans
Together, we will fly so high
Together, tell all our friends goodbye
Together, we will start like new
Together, this is what we'll do....
Go West, life is peaceful there
Go West, back in the open air
Go West, where the skies are blue
Go West, this is what we're gonna do....
Go West ... this is what we're...
Together, we will love the beach
Together, we will learn and teach
Together, change our pace of life
Together, we will work and fight
I love you, I know you love me
I want you, how could I disagree?
So that's why, I make no protest
When you say, you will do the rest
Go West, life is peaceful there
Go West, back in the open air
Go West, Baby (Data) you and me
Go West, this is our destiny...
Go West, sun in winter time
Go West, we will do just fine
Go West, where the skies are blue
Go West, this is what we're gonna do...
There where the air is clean,
We'll be what we want to be
Now if we make our stand
We'll find our promised land
I know that, There are many ways
To live there, in the sun or shades
Together, we will find the place
To settle, where there's so much space
Without the busy pace back east
The hustling, rustling of the feet,
I know why, ready to be too
So that's what, we are gonna do...
What we're gonna do is go west
Life is peaceful there
Go West, back in the open air
Go West, where the skies are blue
Go West, this is what we're gonna do...
Go West, life is peaceful there
Go West, back in the open air
Go West, Baby, (Data) you and me
Go West, this is our destiny
Go West, sun in winter time
Go West, we will feel just fine
Go West, where the skies are blue
Go West, this is what we're gonna do
Go West ....
I find this song has an
almost mystical value for Lore, like he has a mystical value to himself. It sounds like he wants to be with Data, or wants
Data to be with him to help him start a new life, perhaps forget his past and
try to start new. (Seawave’s
pick I)

2. YOU'LL NEVER WALK
ALONE (John Farnham, 1972)
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At then end of the storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver sound of love
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Know your dreams
Ohh walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At then end of the storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver sound of love
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Know your dreams, touch them, and flow
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
This song shows Lore that if he has hope, he's not alone. I think it's a really good song for him,
showing him that it's not all hopeless.
------------------------------
3. YOU'RE THE VOICE (John Farnham, 1986)
We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we wanna right
We gotta make ends meet before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter, we're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other down the barrel of a gun
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
This time we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believin' we can make it better
Oohh We're all someone's daughter, we're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other down the barrel of a gun
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ....
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ....
This song reminds me of the struggle between Lore and Data. Are they always going to be looking at each
other down the barrel of a gun? They
need to speak out.
------------------------------
4. MY HEART HAS A
MIND OF ITS OWN (Kim Carnes, Jeffery Osborne, 1986)
How was I supposed to know
I would be the one who couldn't let go.
What a fool I was to say I could always walk away
Deep inside I lost control
Love has taken over, but it's been slow
Every night I'm losin' sleep
'Cos I've fallen in too deep
And I can't fight it
'Cos my heart has a mind of its own
And I know it won't leave me alone
Though I try, I can't stop this feelin' inside
Can't believe
How I'm comin' apart (I don't mean that literally, Lore)
And I wonder if I could have more
Though it's been said love is all in your head
My heart has a mind of its own
Funny how I used to say
Sometimes even love can get in your way. Ohh...
Now it's crazy, but it's true,
There's no living without you when we try it
'Cos my heart has a mind of its own
And I know it won't leave me alone
Though I try ... Can't believe how I'm comin' apart
And I wonder if I could have more
Though it's been said love is all in your head
My heart has a mind of its own
It doesn't listen to a single word I say
It keeps reminding me I need you more each day...
Can't believe how I'm comin' apart
And I wonder if I could have more
Though it's been said love is all in your head
My heart has a mind of its own...
This song reminds me of Lore. I think his heart has a mind of it's own. It tries to remind Lore that it's there. He knows, but Sometimes he's afraid to show these feelings.
------------------------------
5. FOR YOUR (LORE'S)
EYES ONLY (Sheena Easton, 1981)
For your (Lore's) eyes only
Can see me through the night
For your eyes only
I never need to hide
You can see so much in me
So much in me that's new
I never fail, till I looked into ...
For your eyes only ... Only for you
You see what no one else can see
Never breakin' free
For your eyes only ... Only for you
The love I know you need in me
The fantasy is real with me
Only for you ... Only for you ...
For your eyes only
The nights are never cold
For you already know me
That's all I need to know
Maybe I'm an open book
Because I know you're mine
But you don't need to read between the lines
For your eyes only ... Only for you
You see what no one else can see
Never breakin' free
For your eyes only ... Only for you
The passions that collide in me
The world goes round inside of me
Only for you
For your eyes only ...
I love this love song for Lore, it shows his gentler side. The side that we love, the side that's
there, but needs a little coaxing to bring out.
------------------------------
6. ANYTHING FOR LOVE
(LORE) (Meatloaf, 1993)
I would do anything for love (Lore)
I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact
But I'd never forget the way you feel right now. Oh no, no way.
I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that (Yes I would!)
No I won't do that
And Some days it don't come easy
And Some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all
And these are the days that never end
And some nights you're breathin' fire
And some nights you're carved in ice
Some nights you're like nothing I've ever seen before
Or will again
Maybe I'm crazy, oh, it's crazy and it's true
But nobody can save me, no one else can save me now, but you
As long as the planets are turnin'
As long as the stars are burnin'
As long as your dreams are coming true
You better believe it ....
And I would do anything for love
And I'll be there till the final act
I would do anything for love
And I'll take the vow and seal the pact
But I'd never forgive myself if we don't go all the way Tonight
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that ... no I won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of, but I just won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do...
Some days I pray for silence,
Some days I pray for soul
Some days I just pray to God of
Sex and drums and rock 'n' roll
And maybe I'm lonely it's all a part about to be
This the one and only, the one and only promise I can keep
As long as the wheels are turnin'
As long as the fire's are burnin'
As long as your prayers are comin' true
You better believe it ....
And I would do anything for love
And you know it's true and that's a fact
I would do anything for love
And never think of turnin' back
But I'd never do it better
Than I do it with you
So long, so long
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that ... no I won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of ... But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do...
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do...
And I'll never stop dreamin' of
You every night of my life ... No way
And I would do anything for love
But I won't do that, no I won't do that.
Will you raise me up ... Will you help me down
Will you get me right out of this godforsaken town
Will you make it all new, that's cold
I can do that, I can do that
Cater to every fantasy I got
Will you hose me down in holy water If I get too hot
Will you take me places I've never gone
Now I can do that, I can do that,
After a while you forget everything
Just a brief interlude on a midsummer night's fling
And you see that it's time to move on
I won't do that ... I won't do that
I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
Sooner or later you'll be screwin' around
I won't do that ... No I won't do that
Anything for love, oh, I would do anything for love,
I would do anything for love,
But I won't do that ... No I won't do that
I would do anything for Lore ;)
… I think this song is good for Lore also, it shows that he respects
women, he's not just going to use us like most men do. I like a man like that.

7. THE MAGIC FRIEND (2 Unlimited, 1992)
One, two, three four...
Don't just stand there, Let's get loose
I am ready, I've got the juice
Straight to your heart and back again
I tell you I am just your friend
Nice and slow, that's how we go
My love to you, I let it flow
If you want me, Come on, think again,
Because The Magic Friend, that's what I am
The Magic Friend, that's what I am
The Magic Friend is what he is ...
The Magic Friend, that's what I am
The Magic Friend is what he is ...
Yo yo, go yo, Taste that music
Be a muse, you've got to use it
Don't be afraid for Magic Friend
Because a Magic Friend, that's what I am
The Magic friend is what he is
The Magic Friend is what he is ...
The Magic Friend is what he is ...
The Magic Friend, that's what I am
Don't just stand there, let's get loose
I am ready, I've got the juice
Straight to your heart and back again
I tell you I am just your friend
Nice and slow, that's how we go
My love to you, I let it flow
If you want me, come on, think again,
Because The Magic Friend, that's what I am
The Magic Friend, that's what I am
The Magic Friend is what he is
The Magic Friend is what he is
The Magic Friend is what he is...
Don't be afraid, he's just The Magic Friend ...
I really like this song for Lore, though voice isn't exactly right for
me. He's magical is his own special
away. The song also tells us not to be
afraid of him. He's gentle and
loving. Why be afraid of that? He won't hurt people is he doesn't need
to. We're not afraid of him, and I
think he's respect and love us for that.
Yes, I know what a ‘magic friend’ is – get ya minds out of the
toilet, y’all!
------------------------------
8. AGE OF REASON
(John Farnham, 1988)
From the day that we were born,
We've been heading down a track
Sometimes it's made for good
Sometimes for bad
But if we look behind us,
There's a wave coming down
Carrying us forward to a new age
What about the world around us
How can we fail to see?
And now that our father's are gone
And we've been left to carry on
What about the age of reason?
So why can we be still?
Why can't we love each other?
Is kindness an ancient skill,
Buried by our blindness?
And is w look behind us,
There's a wind blowing in
To create the age of reason
What about the world around us
How can we fail to see?
And now that our father's are gone
And we've been left to carry on
What about the age of reason?
If we consider carefully,
The options put before us
So much wisdom,
So much love waiting for us
And if we look ahead,
There's the sun and the seasons
And another age of reason
What about the world around us
How can we fail to see?
And now that our father's are gone
And we've been left to carry on
What about the age of reason? ...
This song deals with how the human race treat Lore. How would they feel if they were treated the
same way? How can they fail to see what
they're doing to Lore and how much it hurts him by the coldness of their
attitudes. Where is the love these
days. Sometimes I think kindness is an
ancient skill. Lore is kind, although
he may not admit it, but is it any wonder why he dislikes humans so much?
------------------------------
9. TWO STRONG HEARTS
(John Farnham, 1988)
No need to analyse this kind of emotion,
Cause it comes naturally
A simple case of feeling love and devotion.
So tell me tenderly
I want to give my life to you
I want to feel my blood run through you
And oh, oh oh, I want to touch you
Over and over and over again
We've got two strong hearts
We stick together like the honey and the bee, you and me
We've got two strong hearts
Reaching out forever, like a river to the sea
Running free
Running free
I feel there's no need for compromising my reputation
When you lead me astray,
I'm proud to be a part of this fascination
When I hear you say
I want to be there to guide you
I'm going to feel my love inside you
And oh, oh, oh, I want to touch you
Over and over and over again...
We've got two strong hearts
We stick together like the honey and the bee, you and me
We've got two strong hearts
Reaching out forever, like a river to the sea ...Running free
We've got two strong hearts
We stick together like the honey and the bee, you and me
We've got two strong hearts
Reaching out forever, like a river to the sea, Running free
Running free ...
This song is for Lore to say to Data, not as a love song, but as a bond
between Brother and Brother, just ignore the touching line, which doesn't
really apply in this case.
Yeech! It better not!
The first line is a great line to be spoken to Data, isn't it? Anyway, I love Data saying "I want to
be there to guide you" he would be an excellent guide for Lore to help
him, just ignore the rest of that verse!
I also like the "Running Free" line. I think Lore would feel a
great burden lifted if he and Data became friends, or at least sorted things
out. His heart would be free.
------------------------------
10. A WHOLE NEW WORLD (Peabo Bryson, Celine Dion, 1993)
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me princess (prince in
Lore's case)
Now when did you last
Let your heart decide
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder,
Over sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no, or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But now from way up here, it's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Unbelievable sights, Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, reeling
Through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath, it gets better
I'm like a shooting star, I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be
A whole new world
With new horizons to pursue
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare, let me share
This whole new world with you
Ohh...
A whole new world, whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no, or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment gets better
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare ... Anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world
A whole new world
That's where we'll be, where we will be
A thrilling chase, a wondrous place
For you and me...
I really love this song, and it's wonderful for Lore too. The words are perfect! I think Lore's agree with me. I try to imagine Lore like a shooting
star. Lore needs a new world, away from
harshness and rejection. The world must
have people who will accept him and love him for who he is and never let him
down. Perhaps if people understood him, his world will be a lot kinder. Perhaps Data can show Lore a whole new
world.
------------------------------
11. CRYIN' WAITIN'
HOPIN' This version -- (Marshall Crenshaw, 1987)
Cryin' waitin' hopin' You'll come back
I just can't seem to get you off my mind
Cryin' waitin' hopin' You'll come back
You're the one I love, And I think about you all the time
Cryin', do do do,
My years keep fallin' all night (and day) long
Waitin' do do do,
It seems so useless, I know it's wrong
To be Cryin' waitin' hopin' You'll come back
Maybe someday soon, it'll change
And you'll be mine
Cryin', do do do,
My years keep fallin' all night (and day) long
Waitin' do do do,
It seems so useless, I know it's wrong
To be Cryin' waitin' hopin' You'll come back
Maybe someday soon, it'll change
And you'll be mine
Cryin' waitin' hopin'...
This is how I feel about Lore, since what happened to him in the season 7 premiere, but he will come back. I only hope it's someday soon.
-----------------
12. THE LAST SONG (Elton John, 1994)
Yesterday you came to lift me up
As light as straw and brittle as a bird
Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall
Just one more whisper of a voice unheard
Tomorrow, leave the windows open
As fear grows, please hold me in your arms
Won't you help me if you can, to shake this anger
I need your gentle hands, to keep me calm...
Cause I never thought I'd lose
I only thought I'd win
I never dreamed I'd feel
This fire beneath my skin
I can't believe you love me
I never thought you'd come
I guess I misjudged love
Between a father and his son...
Things we never said, come together
The hidden truth no longer haunting me
Tonight we touched on things that were never spoken
That kind of understanding sets me free...
Cause I never thought I'd lose
I only thought I'd win
I never dreamed I'd feel
I can't believe you love me
I never thought you'd come
I guess I misjudged love
Between a father and his son...
I love this song. It's
beautiful and it's the perfect song for Lore to sing to his father, or
perhaps Dr. Soong to Lore. It makes me
cry also. It could also be said by Lore to Data, just change "father and
his son" to Brothers. It's very moving. I love the tune and the words.
It's so much like Lore. He did always believe he'd win, but he lost and now his
family wants him back and that means everything to him, but he's sad that he
can't talk to his father about what he's feeling. (Seawave’s Pick II)
------------------------------
13. WIND BENEATH MY
WINGS (Bette Middler, 1990)
Ohh, oh, oh oh ... It must've been cold there in my shadow,
To never have sunlight on your face
You were contempt to let me shine, that's your way
You always walked a step behind
So I was the one with all the glory
And you were the one with all the strain
A beautiful face without a name, for so long
A beautiful smile which hides the pain
Did you ever know that you're my hero
You're everything I would like to be
I can fly higher than an eagle
You are the wind beneath my wings
I might have a fear to go unnoticed
But I've got it all here in my mind
I want you to know, I know the truth, 'course I know
I would be nothing without you
Did you ever know that you're my hero
You're everything I wish I could be
I can fly higher than an eagle
You are the wind beneath my wings
Did I ever tell you you're my hero
You're everything, everything I wish I could be, Oh, and I...
I can fly higher than an eagle
You are the wind beneath my wings
Oh, wind beneath my wings...
Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high,
Oh, Fly, fly, fly .... So high against the stars,
So high I almost touch the sky...
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you,
The wind beneath my wings
This is a moving song for lore to say to Data. Apart from the first few lines. I think Lore would consider Data a role
model, if even a hero, but he might be afraid, or even embarrassed to tell Data
this. The words are perfect. I think Lore's afraid of going unnoticed,
that's why he goes off and does something bad, because then he is noticed, but
I think he really wants to be more like Data, in control of himself, stable and
have a clear path and be sure of himself.
------------------------------
14. THAT'S FREEDOM
(John Farnham, 1990)
I don't know what you want from me
Or what you think love ought to be
I want something that's open and strong
As the country this road's moving on
From the mountain to the valley,
From the ocean to the alley
From the highway to the river
One emotion to deliver
One heart one way, one love
To share, but not to chain
That's freedom
It's a song of the heart
A race in the wind
A light in the dark
That's freedom
It's a reason to live
And after the rain
We can build this fire
That's freedom
I don't know why it takes so long to remember
What the world's doin' wrong
Never wanted to shove my plan one way or another
Who can't understand
All I want is a fast lane to
Where the roads cross this plain won't take you
I want something you understand
To make us stand proud
As nothing else can
It's a song of the heart
A race in the wind
The light in the dark
That's freedom
It's a reason to live
And after the rain
We can build this fire
That's freedom
It's a measure of trust
When love is alive
It's tender and tough
That's freedom
It's all love is about
The opening up and letting it out
Let freedom ring
From the mountain to the valley,
From the ocean to the alley
From the highway to the river
One emotion to deliver
One heart one way, one love
To share, but not to chain
That's freedom
It's a song of the heart
A race in the wind
A light in the dark
That's freedom
It's a reason to live
And after the rain
We can build this fire
That's freedom ...
It's a measure of trust
When love is alive
It's tender and tough
That's freedom
It's all love is about
The opening up and letting it out
Let freedom ring
That's freedom ... that's freedom ...
This is a good song for Lore. He
needs to be free to love his own way.
He can never be free if people keep rejecting him and telling him what
he should be like, sure they can help him, but he can't change who he is
inside. Lore needs to be free inside as
well as outside.
------------------------------
15. I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW
(Johnny Nash, 1971)
I can see clearly now the rain has gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
All of the dark clouds have passed me by
It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shiny day
Yes I can make it now the rain has gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is that rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shiny day
Look all around ... There's nothing but blue skies
Look in the air ... There's nothing but blue skies...
I can see clearly now the rain has gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Here is that rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shiny day
It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shiny day
It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shiny day
Bright...yeah It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sun shiny day ...
Bright ... bright ... bright...
This song is good for Lore when he starts his new life, leaving all his old feelings behind -- seeing
clearly, not clouded by false self-image, jealousy and hatred. And yes, he can make it, if only he tries.

16. ELECTRIC BLUE (Icehouse - Iva Davies, 1988)
If a boy had a chance,
A chance with someone like you
Are you gonna break his heart
Let him cry for the moon...
Are you hidin' somewhere behind those eyes...
I just freeze every time you see through me
And it's all over you, Electric blue
On my knees, help me, Baby, (Data)
Tell me what can I do ... Electric blue
Oh, I had a dream, For a moment I believed it was true
Oh, I'd have given anything Just to be there with you.
Are you hidin' Somewhere behind those eyes...
I just freeze every time you see through me
And it's all over you, Electric blue
In too deep, Standing here waitin'
As I'm breakin' in two, Electric blue
I can see, can see that it may be
Just a vision of you, Electric blue
On my knees, Help me, Baby, (Data)
Tell me what can I do... Electric blue...
Help me...
Are you hidin' Somewhere behind those eyes...
I just freeze every time you see through me
And it's all over you, Electric blue
In too deep, standing here waitin'
As I'm breakin' in two, Electric blue
I can see, can see that it may be
Just a vision of you, Electric blue
On my knees, help me, Baby, (Data)
Tell me what can I do... Electric blue...
I just freeze every time you see through me
And it's all over you, Electric blue
In too deep, standing here waitin'
As I'm breakin' in two, Electric blue
I can see, can see that it may be
Just a vision of you, Electric blue
On my knees, help me, Baby, (Data)
Tell me what can I do... Electric blue
Electric blue ... Electric blue...
I think this song is good for Data to help Lore straighten out his
life. The first verse is directed
toward Data. The rest is Lore telling
Data that he needs help, is practically begging Data to help him, to give him
another chance. He sees Data in his
dreams and desperately wants - and needs his brother's help.

17. LOVE CHANGES
EVERYTHING (Michael Crawford, 1991)
Love, love changes everything
Hands and faces, burning sky
Love, love changes everything
How you live and how you die
Love can make the summer fly
Or a night seem like a life time
Yes, love, love changes everything
How I tremble at your name
Nothing in the world will ever be the same
Love, love changes everything
Days are longer once before
Love, love changes everything
It is deeper than before
Love will turn your world around
And that world will last forever
Yes, love, love changes everything
Brings you glory, brings you shame
Nothing in the world will ever be the same
Love, into the world we go
Planning futures, shaping years
Love will see that suddenly
All our wisdom disappears
Love makes fools of everyone
All the rules we make are broken
Yes, love, love changes everything
Live or perish in its wake...
Love will never , never let you be the same
(Hands and faces Burning sky...)
Love will never , never let you be the same!
I like this song for Lore in the way that it says people are changed by
love and I think Lore will be also. It
will change him in a good way. He'll
still be himself, or course, but a better self. "Love" could also be substituted with Lore.

18. THE PHANTOM OF THE
OPERA (Michael Crawford, Sarah
Brightman, 1989)
In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came
That voice which calls to me, and speaks my name
And do I dream again ... And now I find
The Phantom of the Opera is there... Inside my mind
Sing once again with me, a strange duet
My power over you grows stronger yet
And though you turn from me to glance behind
The Phantom of the Opera is there... Inside your mind
Those who have seen your face draw back in fear
I am that mask you wear
It's me they fear
My spirit and my voice in one combined
The Phantom of the Opera is here...
Inside my (your) mind
He is the Phantom of the Opera...
He is the Phantom of the Opera...
In all your fantasies you always knew
That man and mystery are close to you
And in this labyrinth where night is blind
The Phantom of the Opera is here...
Inside my (your) mind
Sing for me ... Sing, my Angel
Sing... Sing for me...
Sing, my Angel of Music ... Sing for me! ...
The Phantom of the Opera character reminded me of Lore, the way he was
always afraid to show his true self, because people didn't understand him. The Phantom has one hell of a temper, but a
gentle person who knows so much love and won't hurt those he cares about, just like
Lore.

19. MEMORY (Elaine Page, 1984)
See the dew on the sundrop
And a rose that is fading
Roses wither away
Like the sunflower,
I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting for the day
Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight,
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember the time
I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again...
Every street lamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And the street lamp gutters
And soon it will be morning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale old smell of morning
The street lamp dies,
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Touch me!
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun ...
This gorgeous song is from the amazing Andrew Lloyd-Webber operetta, Cats. It's about an mangy cat called Grizabella
who’s always left out and rejected. She
was once the Glamour Cat. Her feelings
and sentiments are what Lore's feeling too.
He wants to be accepted and he wants others to accept him too. It also symbolises Lore's early life among
the colonists, perhaps at first, the first few weeks, it was okay, then
deteriorated.

20. SOMETIMES WHEN WE
TOUCH (Dan Hill, 1978)
You asked me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Then mislead you with lies
Then who an I to judge you
In what you say or do
I'm only just beginning
To see the real you
Sometimes when we touch the honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
Romance and all the strategy
Leaves me battlin' with my pride
But through the insecurity,
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer,
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth
Sometimes when we touch the honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I know how hard you've tried
I watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searchin' for a friend,
A brother or a sister,
But then the passion flares again...
Sometimes when we touch the honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
This a song Lore can say to Data (not the passion bits, mind you! …
Well maybe in a slash fic ;) I
particularly like the chorus. I can
picture both Lore and Data hugging and crying.
He doesn't want to lie anymore, but he's afraid to be honest. He feels vulnerable and insecure and he's
ashamed of what he's done, but he knows he can't hide from himself. He's insecure, but also tender. He's scared
that she wont return the love and reject him, but when she shows him that she
does love him, his fear subsides. He just hopes Data will believe him when he's
being honest and accepts him as a brother.
It's also a good song for Lore to sing to an understanding lady friend!

21. COME THE DAY (Midge Ure, 1989)
I feel the shadows on you now
With so much more to see
I see the strange arrival
From a thousand miles away
If I stopped right where I stand
And believed the lines on my hand
I would open up my fist
And take the things I missed
Come the day!
I will be there when the heavens start to fall
Come the day!
I will be there with my reasons for it all
Struck by sound across my face
Lies enough I can taste
Knock the choices from my head
Feel the voice in which I said
Come the day ....
I weave around the dangers
The finest threads unwind
This net between my fingers
Covers all I've left behind
If I stopped right where I stand
And believed the lines on my hand
I would open up my heart
And take the hardest part
Come the day!
I will be there when the heavens start to fall
Come the day!
I will be there with my reasons for it all
Struck by sound across my face
Lies enough I can taste
Knock the choices from my head
Feel the voice in which I said
Come the day ....
When the heavens start to fall
I will be there when you call
Come the day!
I will be there when the heavens start to fall
Come the day!
I will be there with my reasons for it all
Struck by sound across my face
Lies enough I can taste
Knock the choices from my head
Feel the voice in which I said
Come the day ....
I feel the shadows on you now
With so much more to see
I see the strange arrival
From a thousand miles away
If I stopped right where I stand
And believed the lines on my hand
I would open up my fist
And take the things I missed
Come the day!
I will be there when the heavens start to fall
Come the day!
I will be there with my reasons for it all
Struck by sound across my face
Lies enough I can taste
Knock the choices from my head
Feel the voice in which I said
Come the day...
Come the day...
I will be there when the heavens start to fall
Come the day!
I will be there with my reasons for it all
Struck by sound across my face
Lies enough I can taste
Knock the choices from my head
Feel the voice in which I said
Come the day ....
Come the day!
Come the day...
Struck by sound across my face
Lies enough I can taste
Knock the choices from my head
Feel the voice in which I said
Come the day
Come the day...
THIS IS SO
LORE’S SONG, MAN!!! In a word …
Fuck. This song, like ROCKS, DUDE!!! wonder if this guy was secretly singing about Lore ;) I've always LOVED this song
for Lore. It has a great tune, has
guts, balls, is major league kickass and it describes his feelings
perfectly. He wants to tell people the
reasons - why he did what he did, he's just waiting to tell people who will
listen to him. He wants his words heard
and understood, not to fall on deaf ears.
Also, he's willing to take the consequences, the pain and guilt of what
he did. He will open up his fists, his
heart and show people what he's really inside, if only he was given a chance
to. If only people would listen to him
and understand the extremely rough life he's had and th tough times he went
through. It's a lot of feelings to
bottle up, and Lore wishes he could tell others about how he feels and the
freedom he wants in his life - to be given another chance to prove himself - to
prove he can change. Come the
Day.

22. HE AIN'T HEAVY,
HE'S MY BROTHER (The Hollys,
1969)
The road is long with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where...
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him.
He ain't heavy, He's my brother
So on we go
His welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
But I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm leaning at all
I'm leaning with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way
To live why not share
And the load doesn't way me down at all
He ain't heavy, He's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother...
I think this is an excellent, beautiful song for Lore to sing to Data
or vice versa. It's very touching and
shows the brothers' love for each other. It shows that the brother's are not a
burden or a nuisance to each other. It
shows that they care about each other, even after what has happened between
them. It shows that they love each other and they will help each other when the
other needs it, and always be there for them in times of need.
