Which song reminds you of Once Upon A Time?

b/c Josh cries so well on screen…

Cry Like a Man. It’s not by a real artist. It was actually made for 90’s TV show, Sliders.

I think I posted this at fanforum awhile ago and not here, but it’s playing on my tablet right now and thought of this thread. Trisha Yearwood’s song “One A Bus to St. Cloud” is a perfect Emma song. No matter who you ship her with, she was heartbroken when Neal left her and this song sums the situation. It’s about a women who travels all over and sees her former lover everywhere, always wondering what went wrong and never finding him or the answers she seeks. This song is just pure poetry.

On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota, I thought I saw you there
With the snow falling down around you like a silent prayer
And once on a street in New York City with the jazz and the sin in the air
And once on a cold L.A. freeway going nowhere

And it’s strange, but it’s true I was sure it was you
Just a face in the crowd on a bus to St. Cloud

In a church in downtown New Orleans I got down on my knees and prayed
And I wept in the arms of Jesus for the choice you made
We were just gettin’ to the good part, just gettin’ past the mystery
Oh, and it’s just like you, it’s just like you to disagree

And it’s strange but it’s true you just slipped out of view
Like a face in the crowd on a bus to St. Cloud

And you chase me like a shadow
And you haunt me like a ghost
And I hate you some, and I love you some
But I miss you most…

On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota, I thought I saw you there
With the snow falling down around you like a silent prayer

On the same album is Trisha Yearwood’s cover of Melissa Etheridge’s “You Can Sleep While I Drive.” I like both versions, but it’s a great song about someone pleading with their lover to just get out on the road and escape their life and travel. Great for Neal/Emma in their thieving days.

I heard “True Love” by Pink on the radio the other day, and even though I don’t ship SwanQueen, I decided that if I did ship it this would totally be their theme song.

For all of those who had their hearts magically ripped out (and those whom I suspect may suffer the same experience in the coming season), I suggest Bing Crosby’s “Be Careful, It’s My Heart” from Holiday Inn.

I’m listening to Alison Krauss right now and her song “Maybe” would be a good Belle song.  Here’s the chorus:

Maybe I can stand alone
Maybe I’m strong as stone
Even though the bird has flown
Maybe he’ll fly on home

Keeper of Rumplestiltskin's and Neal's spears and war paint and crystal ball.

So this song has some profanity, be warned, but Thrift Shop for Mr. Gold….

It cracked me up.

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass

LOL That’s fun!  There’s a little vid out there somewhere with Hook and Jefferson set to Thrift Shop and it fits perfectly because, well, their coats, seriously. 😉

*searches madly for the vid* (same language warning applies as in KCF’s post)
