Scottish Highlands
The Highlands (Scottish Gaelic: A' Ghàidhealtachd, "the place of the
Gaels"; Scots: the Hielands) are a historic region of Scotland .
The area is sometimes referred to as the "Scottish Highlands". It was
culturally distinguishable from the Lowlands from the later Middle Ages into the modern period, when Lowland
Scots replaced Scottish Gaelic throughout most of the Lowlands . The term is also used
for the area north and west of the Highland Boundary Fault, although the exact
boundaries are not clearly defined, particularly to the east. The Great Glen
divides the Grampian Mountains to the southeast from the Northwest Highlands. The Scottish Gaelic
name of A' Ghàidhealtachd literally means "the place of the Gaels"
and traditionally, from a Gaelic-speaking point of view, includes both the
Western Isles and the Highlands .
Who Wants to Live Forever
"Who Wants
to Live Forever" is a song by the English rock band Queen. The song is the
sixth track on the album A Kind of Magic, released in June 1986, and was
written by guitarist Brian May for the soundtrack to the film Highlander,
directed by Russell Mulcahy.
The song is used
to frame the scenes in the film where Connor MacLeod must endure his beloved
wife Heather growing old and dying while he, as an Immortal, remains forever
young. (It was later used in the episodes "The Gathering",
"Revenge is Sweet", "The Hunters", "Line of
Fire", and "Leader of the Pack" of the Highlander television
series.) The song's title is taken from a line in another movie scored by Brian
May and Queen, Flash Gordon (the line can be heard on Battle Theme from Queen
Flash Gordon soundtrack album).
May sings lead vocals on the first verse, before Freddie Mercury takes over for most of the rest of the song, with May singing "But touch my tears with your lips" during Mercury's verse and then the final line of the song, "Who waits forever anyway?". An instrumental version of the song, titled "Forever", was included as a bonus track on the CD version of the album. This instrumental featured only a piano, with keyboard accompaniment during the chorus sections. The piano track was recorded solely by Brian May. Queen was backed up by an orchestra, with orchestrations by the co-composer of the film's score, Michael Kamen. Since its release, the song has been covered by a number of artists.
Who Wants To Live
Forever lyrics
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet
slips away
From us
Who wants to live
forever
Who wants to live forever....?
There's no chance
for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside
for us
Who wants to live
forever
Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to love
forever?
When love must die
But touch my
tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today
Who waits forever
anyway?
