      It has those things in the lyrics doesn't it,for things past and things to come,and they go with the music so well. We went to see Cats in the West End once,almost the first time I'd read or heard those words of TS Elliott's since school. More to him than his name being (nearly) "toilets" spelt backwards,as was once graffiti'd.

      This is sadder for me than usual, lately. My boyfriend's mother just died, we were going through her stuff and I found a score to Memory in one of her old boxes. She was a musician for a long time so not surprising. The lyrics remind me of how she was when I knew her, because she had a lot of personal demons, mostly medical. She had such a big personality and spirit though.

Right as the 3 year anniversary of my other boy cat Magus was approaching. I still have my girl cat Innocent but I miss my boy cats.

    when i was a teenager, I got a small role in our local drama club's production of Cats. I earned the title of "understudy cat" because I was the only person in the cast who came into it not only knowing every word of every song, but actively helped coach the man playing Skimbleshanks on remembering his song (that song is beyond brutal, and there shouldn't be such a thing as 13/8ths time). And without fail, every night we performed, I'd hide in the wings and watch our Grizabella belt this out and cry. it is one of the wackiest damn musicals on planet earth, and I wouldn't change a thing.

    Midnight - not a sound from the pavement.
    has the moon lost her memory,
    she is smiling alone.
    in the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feet,
    and the wind begins to moan.
    Memory - all alone in the moonlight.
    i can smile at the old days,
    i was beautiful then.
    i remember the time i knew what happiness was.
    let the memory live again.
    Every street light seems to beat a fatalistic warning.
    someone mutters and the streetlamp gutters,
    and soon it will be morning.
    Daylight, i must wait for the sunrise.
    i must think of a new life,
    and i mustn't give in.
    when the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too,
    and a new day will begin.
    Burnt out ends of smokey days,
    the stale cold smell of morning.
    the streetlamp dies, another night is over,
    another day is dawning.
    Touch me, it's so easy to leave me
    all alone with the memory
    of my days in the sun.
    if you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is.
    look, a new day has begun.

    My cat died 2 months ago, she was my first cat. We rescued her and her kitten from people didn´t love her. She already had hepatitis though. She knew true love the last 2 months of her life, while being with me and my partner, we enjoyed her company for just 2 months. I'll always remember her face while being in the hospital, she always looked at me and my partner like "Thank you, I love you so much". We fought so hard, but maybe she was needed up there. Tears just drop while listening to this song.
    You will always be beautiful my little Tay. At least in the end, you could feel the warmth and love of a true family. I'll always love you.

    Roland Soh Thank you for your spelling missteps. Because of them I was driven to look through the various comments, where I learned things like there is a lady named Elaine Page, who sings beautifully indeed and that there is more than version of this song in the musical, which is what the production of "Cats" actually is. Should you ever wish to inquire about any questions of grammar or expression feel free to look me up here or on Facebook. I am on Facebook much more than RUclips. There I am Cynthia Hill Durham. English is the very devil to learn.
    You did a lovely job here. Don't let anyone tell you differently!

      Joaquin Segura . Elaine's voice is crisp and clear, if you can't understand the lyrics, have your hearing checked. Don't degrade people who may not spell correctly, English is a difficult language if you didn't grow up with it. How fluent is your Italian spelling? Just listern to the music and stop bitching.
