A song that makes me think of Brokeback Mountain
j.U.d.E.:
Don't know if it was mentioned but..
"A DIFFERENT CORNER" - especially the last two words.. ;)
[by George Michael]
I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had I been there, had I been there
I would promise you all of my life
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I don't dare, no I don't dare
'Cause I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
And I'm so scared, I'm so scared
Take me back in time maybe I can forget
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care
I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze
Little by little you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care
No I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love
And if all that there is, is this fear of being used
I should go back to being lonely and confused
If I could, I would, I swear

Good, someone finally mentioned a person who sings crossover to country music, Gordon Lightfoot. His ballads fit both the popular and the country genres.
Bernie Taupin is special because he owns a real ranch and raises bulls, too. He also knows quite a few men who are bull riders by profession.

A couple from the lovely Norah Jones...
'Come Away With Me'
Come away with me in the night
Come Away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies
I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In the fields where the yellow grass grows
knee-high
So won't you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come Away with me
And this one I imagine Ennis and Jack feeling before the reunion, when they're each wondering where the other is...
'Lonestar'
Lonestar where are you out tonight?
This feeling i'm trying to fight
It's dark and i think that I would
give anything
For you to shine down on me
How far you are I just don't know
The distance I'm willing to go
I pick up a stone that I cast to the sky
Hoping for some kind of sign

Sigh. I love Norah Jones. That album helped get me through the first year of my son's life. I'd put it on every evening when I put him in his high chair to eat his dinner. It was so soothing. For both of us.
Just heard this one in my car a little bit ago:
We Belong - Pat Benatar
Many times I've tried to tell you
Many times I've cried alone
Always I'm surprised how well you
Cut my feelings to the bone
Don't want to leave you really
I've invested too much time
To give you up that easy
To the doubts that complicate your mind
We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, we belong
We belong together
Maybe it's a sign of weakness
When I don't know what to say
Maybe I just wouldn't know
What to do with my strength anyway
Have we become a habit?
Do we distort the facts?
Now there's no looking forward
Now there's no turning back
Close your eyes and try to sleep now
Close your eyes and try to dream
Clear your mind and do your best
To try and wash the palette clean
We can't begin to know it
How much we really care
I hear your voice inside me
I see your face everywhere

Uh-oh, big lump in my throat from that. Had to put my coffee down :'(
I seem to be on a BBM double-whammy at the mo, having been a big-time Ennis-a-holic to begin with but now I've started to see all the hurt from Jack's POV too. How can it get any sadder? I don't know it but the lyrics seemed to be from Jack to me, but I think could also be Ennis in a way. Awww...
