As humans, we all have a drive express our deepest feeling through stories, songs, poetry, drawing and painting. We strive to pass on our "way of life" to later generations so that they may learn from both our successes and our failures. It is a method of substantiating that we were here on this earth and this is what we felt and this is how we lived. Here is a selection of links to lyrics, recordings and songs expressly written as tributes and in remembrance for September 11th . Some are written by known recording artists. Others have been penned by ordinary people like you and I who are willing to share something so deeply personal. I applaud all of you who have the talent to express yourself through song. Thank you for sharing your heart with us.
