SEASAONS OF LOVE

I just bought a new musical two days ago. It's called RENT and so far I'm liking the songs and also the story line. RENT is about a group of struggling artists (drag queen, director, exotic dancer, singer) and how they are having problem to pay their rent (haha..didn't see it coming did you). Along the way it tells them of their problems of AIDS, drug pushing and safe sex. It deals a lot too of homosexuality, bisexuality and a lot of urban poor. All in all a great musical. The opening song for this musical is called Seasons of Love and I would like to share it with you.

Seasons Of Love

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes,
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Moments so dear.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?

In Daylights, in sunsets, in midnights
In cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.
In five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure
A year in the life?

How about love?
How about love?
How about love?
Measure in love
Seasons of love.
Seasons of love.

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes!
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Journeys to plan.
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life
Of a woman or a man?

In truths that she learned,
Or in times that he cried,
In bridges he burned,
Or the way that she died.

It's time now to sing out,
Tho' the story never ends
Let's celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friends
Remember the love!
Remember the love!
Remember the love
Measure in love
Seasons of love!
Seasons of love.

Oh you got to remember the love,
You know that love is a gift from up above
Share love, give love, spread love
Measure, measure your life in love.
