Sweet silver song of a lark.
Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II formed one of the more successful songwriting partnerships of their time. Some of their biggest hit musicals included Allegro, The King and I and The Sound of Music, the quality of which still resound to this day.
In 1945, the pair wrote songs for a Broadway musical called Carousel. One of the most famous songs from this musical features at a significant plot turn at the beginning of the musical and is reprised at the finale. This song has also been covered by luminaries like Louis Armstrong, Shirley Bassey, Ray Charles, Placido Domingo, Elvis Presley, The Righteous Brothers, Frank Sinatra and even Pink Floyd. When sung as one voice by thousands of people, with raw emotion, every single strand of hair will stand.
At the top of their voices, the Anfield faithful sung this song at the Atatürk Stadium at half-time 2 days ago and probably propelled an impending rout into the unlikeliest of victories. “You’ll Never Walk Alone” is this week’s friday lyrics.
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
