Soloists – Hear a thousand voices shouting love Danny Boy

Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling, From glen to glen and down the mountain side. The summer’s gone and all the roses dying It’s you, it’s you, must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow Or when the valley’s hushed And white with snow Tis I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so. And when you come and all the flowers are dying If I am dead, as dead I well may be, Ye’ll come and find the place where I am lying, And kneel and say an ave there for me.

And I shall hear though soft your tread above me, And o’er my grave shall warmer sweeter be, For you will bend and tell me that you love me And I shall sleep in peace, until you come______to ______me______. Pack up your Troubles

Choir A to sing their verse

It’s a long way to Tipperary, It’s a long way to go. It’s a long way to Tipperary, To the sweetest girl l know. Goodbye, Piccadilly, farewell Leicester Square. It’s a long, long way to Tipperary, But my heart’s right there.

Choir B solo verse Private Perks is a funny little codger With a smile, a funny smile. Five feet none, he’s an artful little dodger With a smile, a funny smile. Flush or broke he’ll have his little joke, He can’t be suppressed. All the other fellows have to grin When he gets this off his chest Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag, And smile, smile, smile. While you’ve a Lucifer to light your fag, Smile boys, that’s the style. What’s the use of worrying? It never was worth while, so Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag, And smile, smile, smile.

I'm singin' in the rain, just singin' in the rain, What a glorious feeling, I'm happy again. I'm laughin' at clouds, so dark up above. The sun's in my heart, and I'm ready for love. Let the stormy clouds chase, everyone from the place, Come on with the rain, I've a smile on my face. I'll walk down the lane, with a happy refrain, Just singin‘, singin' in the rain. Repeat Do do do do do do Do do do do do do Do do dooooooo. SUMMERTIME

Summertime, an’ the livin' is easy, Fish are jumpin' an’ the cotton is high. Oh, yo’ daddy's rich an’ yo’ mama’s good-lookin' So hush, little baby, don' yo’ cry.

One of these mornin’s you goin’ to rise up singin’, Then you’ll spread yo’ wings an’ you'll take the sky. But till that mornin’, there’s a-nothin' can harm you, With daddy an’ mammy standin' by. Hey Mr Miller

To be taught by Mrs Ruocco on the rehearsal days. Any Dream Will Do

I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain To see for certain what I thought I knew. Far, far away, someone was weeping, But the world was sleeping, Any dream will do. Choir A bold, choir B in brackets as an echo I wore my coat, (I wore my coat) with golden lining (Ah) Bright colours shining (Ah), wonderful and new. And in the east (and in the east), the dawn was breaking (Ah) The world was waking (ah) Any dream will do (sing together) A crash of drums (ah______) a flash of light (ah______) My golden cloak flew out of sight (ah______) Choir A and B The colours faded into darkness I was left alone. (ah)…. Not choir A May I return (may I return) to the beginning (ah) The light is dimming (ah), and the dream is too. The world and I (the world and I), we are still waiting (ah) Still hesitating (ah) Any dream will do (sing together).

Give me my coloured coat my amazing coloured coat. Give me my coloured coat my amazing coloured coat. Video killed the Radio Star

I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two, Lying awake intent at tuning in on you, If I was young it didn't stop you coming through. Oh a oh! They took the credit for your second symphony, Rewritten by machine on new technology, And now I understand the problems you can see. Oh a oh! I met your children, Oh a oh! What did you tell them? Video killed the radio star. Video killed the radio star. Pictures came and broke your heart. Oh, a, a, a, oh! And now we meet in an abandoned studio, We hear the playback and it seems so long ago, And you remember the jingles used to go. Oh-a oh! You were the first one. Oh-a oh! You were the last one. Video killed the radio star. Video killed the radio star. In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far. Oh-a-aho oh! Oh-a-aho oh! Video killed the radio star. Video killed the radio star. In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far. Pictures came and broke your heart, Put the blame on VCR______. I Believe I can Fly

I used to think that I could not go on, And life was nothing but an awful song, But now I know the meaning of true love, I'm leaning on the everlasting arms. If I can see it, then I can do it, If I just believe it, there's nothing to it. Chorus I believe I can fly I believe I can touch the sky. Choir B - I think about it every night and day Choir A – every night and day Spread my wings and fly away I believe I can soar See me running through that open door. I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly. See I was on the verge of breaking down Sometimes si-lence can seem so loud. There are miracles in life I must achieve, But first I know it starts inside of me. If I can see it, then I can be it, If I just believe it, there's nothing to it. Repeat Chorus Reach When the world, leaves you feeling blue, you can count on me, I will be there for you, When it seems, all you hopes and dreams, are a million miles away, I will re-assure you. We've got to all stick together, good friends, there for each other Never, ever forget that, I've got you and you've got me, so

Chorus Reach for the stars, climb every mountain higher, Reach for the stars, Follow your heart's desire, Reach for the stars and when that rainbow's shining over you That's when your dreams will all come true. There's a place, waiting just for you, it’s a special place where your dreams all come true, Fly away, swim the ocean blue, drive that open road, leave the past behind you. Don't stop, gotta keep moving, Your hopes, gotta keep building Never, ever forget that I've got you and you've got me, so

Repeat Chorus

Don't believe in all that you've been told, the sky's the limit you can reach your goal, No-one knows just what the future holds, there ain't nothing you can't be, There's a whole world at your feet, I said reach! Climb every mountain (reach!) Reach for the moon (reach!), Follow that rainbow and your dreams will all come true

Repeat Chorus x 2

Reach for the stars, Climb every mountain higher, Reach for the stars This is me I am not a stranger to the dark, hide away, they say 'Cause we don't want your broken parts, I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars, Run away, they say, no one'll love you as you are. But, I won't let them break me down to dust, I know that there's a place for us, for we are glorious. Chorus When the sharpest words wanna cut me down, I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out, I am brave, I am bruised, I am who I'm meant to be, this is me! Look out 'cause here I come, And I'm marching on to the beat I drum, I'm not scared to be seen, I make no apologies, this is me! Oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh Another round of bullets hits my skin. Well, fire away, 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in, We are bursting through the barricades and Reaching for the sun, we are warriors, Yeah, that's what we've become. I won't let them break me down to dust, I know that there's a place for us For we are glorious! Repeat Chorus Oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh This is me And I know that I deserve your love, Cause there's nothing I'm not worthy of,

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down, I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown them out, This is brave, this is proof, This is who I'm meant to be, this is me!

Look out 'cause here I come, And I'm marching on to the beat I drum. I'm not scared to be seen, I make no apologies, this is me Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, 0h-oh-oh-oh-oh, This is me!
