Refined and re-found resolutions

well, I haven't really been keeping up with this blog, but in my mind, it's not too late to start again.

A question I always find myself asking myself is..."if i had one song to sing in talent show, regardless of my actual talent, which would it be."

I have spent a lot time pondering this predicament, but after searching through my brain and itunes library, it finally came to me. "Touch Me" by the Doors.

Why? Easy. I love the contrast between the verse and the chorus. tangent- there is only one verse and one chorus. Back to the contrast. The verse's lyrics are classic rock, somewhat weirdly sexual and almost seem void of all love for whoever Jim Morrison is singing about. But then get to the chorus and it sounds like something Frank Sinatra should be singing. All lovely and pure about this eternal love that seems so simple, beautiful.
Plus the usage of the horns and strings are waaaay cool.
If you're not familiar with the Doors and this song, check on it.
