"Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls (from the movie City of Angels)


And I'd give up forever to touch you'Cause I know that you feel me somehowYou're the closest to Heaven that I'll ever beAnd I don't wanna go home right now
And all I can taste is this momentAnd all I can breathe is your lifeAnd sooner or later, it's overI just don't wanna miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me'Cause I don't think that they'd understandWhen everything's made to be brokenI just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't comingOr the moment of truth in your liesWhen everything feels like the moviesYeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me'Cause I don't think that they'd understandWhen everything's made to be brokenI just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me'Cause I don't think that they'd understandWhen everything's made to be brokenI just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me'Cause I don't think that they'd understandWhen everything's made to be brokenI just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I amI just want you to know who I amI just want you to know who I am

"Hakuna Matada" by Nathan Lane and Ernie Sabella (from the movie The Lion King--1984)

Hakuna matata! What a wonderful phrase!
Hakuna matata! It ain't no passing craze!
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna matata

Hakuna matata?
Yeah, it's our motto
What's a motto?
Nothin', what's the motto with you?
Ace! Boom!
Those two words will solve all your problems
Yeah, take Pumbaa, here

Why, when he was a young warthog
When I was a young warthog
How you feelin'? It's an emotional story
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the Savannah after every meal

I'm a sensitive soul although I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
I was here for you, and I resent that
And, oh, the shame!
Yes, he was ashamed
I thought of changing my name!
I mean, to what? "Brad"?
And I got downhearted
Every time that I farted... are you gonna stop me?
No, I'm not. You disgust me!

Hakuna matata! What a wonderful phrase!
Hakuna matata! It ain't no passing craze!
It means no worries for the rest of your days (Yeah, sing it, kid)
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna matata

It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna matata! (Hakuna matata, hakuna matata)
Hakuna matata, yeah (Hakuna matata, hakuna matata)
Hakuna matata, oh, ah (Hakuna matata, hakuna matata)
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna matata

One more time

Oh, no, I think we did it (I think we got this one)
But we're just getting in the groove
No, let's leave 'em wanting more
Yeah, you've grown 400 pounds since we started

Meanwhile, I look exactly the same
It means no worries, oh, yeah
Will you tell him to stop
Well, you insisted we sing this song
I insisted you started singing it!
It's our signature song, we shouldn't be sharing it!
But it's our signature song so we have to
Look, just tell him to stop
It means no worries, ah, oh
Oh, now he's riffing, Pumbaa, this is a nightmare
It actually is kinda getting better





 
"Bless The Beasts And The Children" by the Carpenters (from
the movie Bless the Beasts and the Children--1971)


Bless the beasts and the childrenFor in this world they have no voiceThey have no choiceBless the beasts and the childrenFor the world can never beThe world they seeLight their wayWhen the darkness surrounds themGive them loveLet it shine all around themBless the beasts and the childrenGive them shelter from the stormKeep them safeKeep them warmLight their wayWhen the darkness surrounds themGive them loveLet it shine all around themBless the beasts and the childrenGive them shelter from the stormKeep them safeKeep them warm, the children, the children, the children



 "Insensitive" by Jann Arden (from the movie Bed of Roses--
1996)


How do you cool your lips
After a summer's kiss?
How do you rid the sweat
After the body bliss?

How do you turn your eyes
From the romantic glare?
How do you block the sound
Of a voice you'd know anywhere?

Oh, I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes
Your casual good byes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face that told me
Maybe you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive, insensitive, insensitive

How do you numb your skin
After the warmest touch?
How do you slow your blood
After the body rush?

How do you free your soul
After you've found a friend?
How do you teach your heart
It's a crime to fall in love again?

Oh, you probably won't remember me
It's probably ancient history
I'm one of the chosen few
Who went ahead and fell for you
I'm out of vogue, I'm out of touch
I fell too fast, I feel too much
I thought that you might have some advice to give
On how to be insensitive

Oh, I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes
Your casual good byes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face that told me
Maybe you might have some advice to give
On how to be, insensitive

How to be
Insensitive
How to be
Insensitive
How to be


 "Somewhere In Between" by Stephen Bishop (from the movie The China Syndrome--1979)


There′s a harbor round the corner
Proud drifters choose to stay
they have lost their direction
you keep the reason or you throw it all away
don't know what it means
and you find yourself somewhere in between
every heartbeat changes rhythm
feel that motion it draws you near
like a schoolboy studies a prism
look through the middle
do you see a view all too clear
so easy to believe
till you find yourself somewhere in between
boy don′t know what it means
till you find that you're somewhere in between





 
"Lunatic Fringe" by Red Rider (from the movie Vision Quest--1985)


Lunatic fringeI know you're out thereYou're in hidingAnd you hold your meetings
I can hear you comingAnd we know what you're afterWe're wise to you this time(We're wise to you this time)We won't let you kill the laughter
Lunatic fringeIn the twilight's last gleamingThis is open seasonBut you won't get too far
'Cause you've got to blame someoneFor your own confusionWe're on guard this time (on guard this time)Against your final solutionOh no
We can hear you coming(We can hear you coming)No, you're not going to win this time(You're not gonna win)We can hear the footsteps(We can hear the footsteps)Way out along the walkway (along the walkway)
Lunatic fringeWe all know you're out thereCan you feel the resistance?Can you feel the thunder?Oh no


"Theme From Mission:  Impossible" by Adam Clayton & Larry
Mullen, Jr. (from the movie Mission:  Impossible--1996)








"All My Loving" by the Beatles (from the movie A Hard

Day's Night-1964)


Close your eyes and I'll kiss you,
Tomorrow I'll miss you;
Remember I'll always be true.
And then while I'm away,
I'll write home everyday,
And I'll send all my loving to you.

I'll pretend that I'm kissing,
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.
And then while I'm away,
I'll write home everyday,
And I'll send all my loving to you.

All my loving,
I will send to you,
All my loving,
Darling, I'll be true.

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you,
Tomorrow I'll miss you;
Remember I'll always be true.
And then while I'm away,
I'll write home everyday,
And I'll send all my loving to you.

All my loving,
I will send to you,
All my loving,
Darling, I'll be true.

All my loving,
All my loving, oo,
All my loving
I will send to you.



"Count On Me" by Whitney Houston and CeCe Winans (from the movie Waiting to Exhale--1995)

"The 'Pink Panther' Theme" by Henry Mancini and His Orchestra (from the movie The Pink Panther--1963)







 

 "Hungry Eyes" by Eric Carmen (from the movie Dirty Dancing)



I've been meaning to tell you
I've got this feelin' that won't subside
I look at you and i fantasize
You're mine tonight
Now I've got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes
One look at you and i can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and i

I wanna hold you so hear me out
I wanna show you what love's all about
Darlin' tonight
Now I've got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes
One look at you and i can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and i
I've got hungry eyes
Now I've got you in my sights
With those hungry eyes
Now did i take you by surprise

I need you to see
This love was meant to be

[solo]

I've got hungry eyes
One look at you and i can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and i
I've got hungry eyes
Now I've got you in my sights
With those hungry eyes
Now did i take you by surprise
With my hungry eyes
I need...
Hungry eyes
Now I've got you in my sights
With my hungry eyes


"Falling Slowly" by Glenn Hansard and Marketa Irglova (from the movie Once--2007)


I don't know you, but I want youAll the more for thatWords fall through me and always fool meAnd I can't react
And games that never amountTo more than they're meantWill play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it homeWe've still got timeRaise your hopeful voice, you have a choiceYou've made it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know meAnd I can't go backAnd moods that take me and erase meAnd I'm painted black
Well, you have suffered enoughAnd warred with yourselfIt's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it homeWe've still got timeRaise your hopeful voice, you had a choiceYou've made it now
Take this sinking boat and point it homeWe've still got timeRaise your hopeful voice, you had a choiceYou've made it now
Falling slowly, sing your melodyI'll sing it loudOh

Only love survive the fall



 

"All The Way" by Frank Sinatra (from the movie The Joker Is Wild--1957)


When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he loves you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way

Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real

When somebody needs you
It's no good unless she needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years come what may

Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way

Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue see is
That's how deep it goes if it's real

And when somebody needs you
It's no good unless she needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years come what may

Who knows where the road will lead us?
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
I'm gonna love you all the way


We hope you've enjoyed both days of the Prelude*!  Tune in tomorrow for the opening of The Top 200 Movie Songs of the Rock Era*, exclusively on Inside The Rock Era!
