This song is nice and cute and all, but it's much more about the scene than the song. The story: Babe the pig is sick and wont drink his medicine. the farmer is usually very serious and never shows much emotion, but he loses himself for a moment. The result: HILARIOUS!!!!
The song is called If I had Words and is an Irish tune (big surprise coming from me, huh?) . If you want to hear the full song, Dana Winner does a great version.

Dare You To Move
Dare You To Move isn't really a song that nobody has heard. Anybody who saw A Walk To Remember has heard it, but I'm posting it today in honor of my new kid. He was born on Monday night and I love him to death. So: Welcome to the planet, Jefrey Peter Whitmore. I dare you to live!

CLOUDBURST!!!
You know what the trouble is with songs that nobody has heard? They're really hard to find!
My brother, David, upon graduation high school, went on a cross-country road trip and brought me back a CD called 'The Gents of Jazz" and it had a lot of really great songs on it It was the summer of my Junior year and we wore that CD out. My best friend AJ LOVED cloudburst. Now that things are warming up here in Utah, I had that summer on my mind. , but I've never been able to find any of the same versions of those songs again, except for "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen" with Louis Armstrong. Anyway, after browsing Youtube for a significant portion of my morning, I found this version of Cloudburst and I think it's the best. It's awesome because the lyrics are insanely fast!

I was blue and I was always wearing a frown, because my gal had turned me down
then we met and you can bet I knew from the first,
you were my love
cause thats when the old gray cloud burst!
My heart really flew the day you caught my eye
cause thats when the old gray cloud burst!
My heart really flew the day you caught my eye
I hope that we two will never
say goodbye-
Clouds of gray have silver linings when they're reversed; I found your love, and
that's when the old gray cloud burst!
Hey, baby! I'm gonna tell you 'bout your lovin' and your kissin' and your
huggin' and your sweet turtle dovin' pretty baby; I won't be satisfied 'til I
hear 'em play "Here comes the Bride"; Listen to me baby and I don't mean maybe,
listen to my story it's terrifically true! I wanna find a way to tell you that I
really go for you--I hope you really believe me baby 'cause I certainly do!
'Cause you're thrillin' me, you're really, really thrillin' when you tell me
that you prob'ly got a kind of crush on me, that moves me, grooves me,
how devine can one woman be? Oh little darlin' I'm really fallin'; you got me
goofy and gay, I'm bound to get carried away! Just think, you're gonna be mine
someday!
Oh, let's spin a little, spark a little, stop a little, park a little, live
a little, love a little, maybe turtle dove a little; baby; every time you hold me
so near, nobody loves me like you, dear! Let's stop a little, tease a little,
prob'ly maybe squeeze a little, try a little, sigh a little, maybe i can lie a
little bit, gonna tell you the truth I'm gonna love you and that's it!
'Cause I love you baby, love you baby, love you baby, love you baby, love you
baby with all my heart! Ooh, listen to me when I tell you that a lot of little
ladies got away but I know, I know pretty baby I know, I know pretty baby, I
know you're the one, yes you're the one, I knew it when I met ya what a break
to get ya!
When it's cloudy and gray and that's the worst, how do you get that
cloud to burst?
Ya gotta find a lover, find a lover, find a lover, find a lover!
When it's silvery under clouds of gray, how ya gonna chase the gray
away?
You gotta find a little girl and make her love you a lot; don't ever
leave--
em sittin, are you're really gonna ruin the plot!
(Sounds easy, does it?)
Light as a breeze through the trees, boy...
(How pleasant was it?)
Pleasant as one summer breeze, boy!
(it's wonderful what a love can do--look at what love has done for you!)
Weell I'm a lucky lover, a lucky lover, I've got the love you should discover!
(I was blue and I was always wearing a frown, because my gal had turned me down;
then we met and you can bet I knew from the first, you were my love cause that's
when the old gray cloud burst!)
Take a look at me, boy, take another look, take another look, take another look,
take another good long look at me, love opened my eyes and now I see!
(Clouds of gray have silver linings when they reversed; I found your love and
that's when the old gray cloud burst!
say goodbye-
