The Y&R song "Never Ending" - will Phyllis and Nick reunite?



Shick Fans were probably thrilled when on June 28th, they were treated to a gorgeous song by singer-songwriter Fisher called "NEVER ENDING" written just for Young and Restless. NO ONE sings like Fisher - maybe that's why she was the first artist signed to a record label based on her legions of internet fans demanding it!
You can now purchase this haunting tribute to never-ending love Check out the new mp3 page at http://www.soapsongs.com/

Do you remember when right after Nick arrived at the Genoa City hospital, Phyllis went into Nick's room and sat down on the bed next to him? He didn't understand he has lost his memory of the last 2 years. What did the lyrics of this song mean? Only the producers of the show knew for sure...

Only you - You were my world
Only you - Could have my soul
Inside your heart - I was home

Everlasting - Undeniable true love
NEVER ENDING - Love so pure and beautiful
My greatest joy - My sweetest friend
Only you

Everything - That¹s good in me
Came from you - Now I must believe
If I can stay strong, you will live on
Everlasting - Undeniable true love

NEVER ENDING - It was pure and beautiful
My greatest joy - My sweetest friend
It was you - It was you




What Would You Do For Money? Amber's song on The Young and The Restless




WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR MONEY?

You've heard the song at least half a dozen times on The Young and The Restless recently, either when Amber was thinking about doing something stupid for money, or when she was actually digging a shallow grave for the hidden money she, Daniel and Kevin stole from Plum...

Here are the lyrics - now you can get the song "MONEY" by Larry May at http://www.soapsongs.com/ mp3 - the new mp3 download site!

Would you climb a flagpole
sell half your soul
To realize your dreams or forget what you've seen

Would you get down with your boss
for what price or what cost?
Would you cut off all you hair just to sit behind a desk and chair?

WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR MONEY? DO FOR MONEY
RIGHT NOW

Would you break all the laws
be committed to a cause
Fast for 30 days despite all the malaise
Fight for your country
in a war you despise and abhor
Fly to a foreign land just to play in a rock-n-roll band?

WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR MONEY? DO FOR MONEY
RIGHT NOW

We're so shallow
we're so shallow
but the world'll never know
World will never know

WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR MONEY? DO FOR MONEY?
RIGHT NOW...

Is Ava an "Innocent Girl" and how will Jonathan react on All My Children?




If you tuned into All My Children today and watched as Babe questioned Ava about the possibility of her being pregnant, the roots rock song "She Was An Innocent Girl" played throughout the scene at the Comeback bar.

Pefect lyric, I thought! This song is available now available at:

SHE WAS AN INNOCENT GIRL

She just wanted sanctuary to get away from the storm
She wasn't trying to get ahead she was just tryin' to get along
If I could do it all again, I'd just try to be her friend

Oh yea, she was an innocent girl
Oh yea, and all she wanted was you

Down at the bar she was just there tryin' to hang around
Aint too many places left to go in this dirty old town
But when she moved then I could see-- that something change in me

Oh yea, she was an innocent girl
Oh yea, and all she wanted was you

All she wanted was to talk about everything
But I was lonely and I needed some company
Someday I'll see her and she won't be there talkin' about you

First I'll tell her then I'll show her all the things I can do
It always seemed so right to walk away that night

Oh yea, she was an innocent girl
Oh yea, when all she wanted was you

(c) John Caterine

Heartbreaking Song on ONE LIFE TO LIVE 9/5/06 "Captured"

Last Wednesday (September 5, 2007) on ONE LIFE TO LIVE, there was a gorgeous montage with a song played throughout it called "CAPTURED", which is on singer-songwriter Bic Runga's Australian import CD "Birds". It fit in so beautifully with the montage of all the captured souls held hostage by the crazies on the show. Todd is enraged that his lost son has been right under his nose in Llanview all along, and parented by Marci and Al. Lindsay's in jail. McBain's a mess, as usual - is he ever NOT in pain? The song was really a perfect match for all that was transpiring in the hearts of the characters.

Bic Runga's song "Captured" can be heard at her MYSPACE page, where you can click on the link on the upper right hand corner of the homepage:http://www.myspace.com/bicrunga . Her website is http://www.bicrunga.com/

Also, don't know if you noticed, but our songs "When Love Calls" and "Permanent Smile" were played in Capricorn that day - and you can find "Permanent Smile" at http://soapsongs.com/cd_oll_vol01.asp (and soon to be available as an MP3 single song download) The song "When Love Calls" will also be available as an MP3 download. Come back to the site regularly or check my blog each day.

Young and Restless song today 8/30/07 "LOVE AGAIN"


Alot of fans asked us about the "Phyllis-Nick" s0ng that ended today's (8/30/07) Young and The Restless - with the haunting voice singing these words, from the song "LOVE AGAIN":

You’re feeling all alone now
Everything seems dark
There is no light, no pleasure
No love and no hope
You wonder how you got there.
How could you be so wrong
You trusted him so deeply
Now he is gone

Hey girl, don’t give up
Soon you will rise again
Time will ease your pain
You will laugh again
You will LOVE AGAIN

This is a wonderful singer-songwriter artist from Germany, ANTJE ZUMBANSEN who came to America to study at Berklee College of Music. I met her at an alumni concert in New York, and was awed by her haunting voice. She's now back in Berlin, and she continues to write songs for television and film.
This song is now available at Soapsongs.com. Just go to the mp3 page to download:

"Invisible Man" on One Life To Live for the 23rd time!

Todd Herzog's song INVISIBLE MAN, which originally aired on ONE LIFE TO LIVE on October 6, 2003, has been on the show 22 times since then -- most recently on Friday August 24, 2007 of last week. I've gotten alot of emails at Soapsongs.com over the years about this song. Some people asked if it was written for Michael Easton's character John McBain. As a matter of fact, it wasn't! But it was written for ONE LIFE TO LIVE . Todd tried writing a song that would fit in with what was happening on the show at the time , and voila -- thus came forth this magical song which has been embraced by the show and the fans.

Todd's song INVISIBLE MAN but soon will also be available for for purchase at Soapsongs.com. Details to come soon.

In the meantime, check out Todd's website at:

Songs on The Young and The Restless This Week: THE KILLING KIND, and TRUST

Okay, it's been quite a while since my last post - 8 months or so. Sorry, I've been ridiculously busy (who hasn't been, right?) But there's lots to talk about!

First, I've been getting tons of emails from fans asking me to identify songs on the soaps recently - especially THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS, which has been using alot of new music from young bands who are not yet on Itunes.

Soon we'll be letting everyone know how they can download only the song or songs they want to buy from Soapsongs.com. But in the meantime, many of the songs you've heard and loved on the shows are ONLY AVAILABLE here as Free Bonus CD Singles, with the purchase of any Soapsong CD.

So stay tuned for news about how to get the following songs (either as a free bonus CD single, or as a download):

"THE KILLING KIND" (see lyrics below) - played mostly as the theme song for Kevin and Jana (YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS) and their death-defying cat-and-mouse love/hate story. This haunting song is sung by Lisa Goyette (and written by Emmy-winning singer-songwriter Michael Kisur, whom you've heard many times singing on The Young And The Restless soundtrack).

THE KILLING KIND (c) 2007 Michael Kisur
You came on like summer rain
Sweet and gentle, carrying your pain
I was drawn to your disguise
You wear it well, but now I’m not so blind
You said you wanted
Something beautiful
You said you wanted
Something hard to find
You said that life
Could be so wonderful
But I found out just in time
Your love’s THE KILLING KIND
THE KILLING KIND
Someday I’ll be back again
Trying to find a love that doesn’t end
I’ll remember what I learned
I won’t forget the pictures I have burned
You said you wanted
Something beautiful
You said you wanted
Something hard to find
You said that life
Could be so wonderful
But I found out just in time
Your love’s THE KILLING KIND
THE KILLING KIND
You said you wanted
Something beautiful
You said you wanted
Something hard to find
You said that life
Could be so wonderful
But I found out just in time
Your love’s THE KILLING KIND
THE KILLING KIND
But I found out just in time
Your love’s THE KILLING KIND

Lots of fans are asking about the sinuous and mysterious song "TRUST" that has been played numerous times for the Lies/Secrets/Trust issues between Daniel and Lily, and Cane and Amber. That song is by Jeff Meegan, and it's one of my favorites:

TRUST (c) 2007 Jeffrey Meegan

Faith, Destiny Lies and deceit
Fear, hate
Don’t turn your back on me

HOW CAN I TRUST
What you say
When I can’t trust
What you don’t say
HOW CAN I TRUST
What I see
When I can’t even trust in me

Passion, tears
MisunderstandingJealousy, futility
Missing happy endings

HOW CAN I TRUST
What you say
When I can’t trust
What you don’t say
HOW CAN I TRUST
What I see
When I can’t even trust in me

So STAY TUNED FOR more great songs and the info about how to get them!
