"Autobiographies of great nations are written in three manuscripts – a book of deeds, a book of words, and a book of art. Of the three, I would choose the latter as truest testimony." - Sir Kenneth Smith, Great Civilisations

"I must write each day without fail, not so much for the success of the work, as in order not to get out of my routine." - Leo Tolstoy

I have never believed that one should wait until one is inspired because I think the pleasures of not writing are so great that if you ever start indulging them you will never write again. - John Updike

"The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it." - J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

Poetry is the shadow cast by our streetlight imaginations." - Lawrence Ferlinghetti

COCO 2 – Tráiler oficial (2024)
Disney•Pixar



CoCo Official Final Trailer
by Pixar

Despite his family's generations-old ban on music, young Miguel dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol Ernesto de la Cruz. Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead. After meeting a charming trickster named Héctor, the two new friends embark on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel's family history.

Remember Me
from CocoPop Choral Series Octavo

This product has a minimum order quantity of five copies.

The Disney/Pixar animated film Coco celebrates Mexican culture and specifically the tradition of Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). This is not a somber occasion. Rather it is a day to celebrate, to remember, and to honor those who are no longer with us in the physical world. Academy Award-winning composers Robert Lopez and his wife Kristen Anderson Lopez (Frozen) have written a beautiful ballad that offers peace and assurance to those left behind.

Lyrics: Remember Me


[Chorus: Miguel]

Remember me, though I have to say goodbye

Remember me; don't let it make you cry

For even if I'm far away, I hold you in my heart

I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart

Remember me, though I have to travel far

Remember me, each time you hear a sad guitar

Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be

Until you're in my arms again, remember me


[Post-Chorus: Natalia Lafourcade & Miguel]

Que nuestra canción no deje de latir

Solo con tu amor yo puedo existir

Recuérdame

Que nuestra canción no deje de latir

Solo con tu amor yo puedo existir


[Chorus: Natalia Lafourcade]

Recuérdame, si en tu mente vivo estoy

Recuérdame, mis sueños yo te doy

Te llevo en mi corazón y te acompañaré

Unidos en nuestra canción, contigo ahí estaré

Recuérdame, si sola crees estar

Recuérdame, y mi cantar te irá a abrazar

Aún en la distancia nunca vayas a olvidar

Que yo contigo siempre voy, recuérdame


[Post-Chorus: Miguel]

If you close your eyes and let the music play

Keep our love alive, I'll never fade away

If you close your eyes and let the music play

Keep our love alive, I'll never fade away

If you close your eyes and let the music play

Keep our love alive, I'll never fade away


[Chorus: Miguel]

Remember me, for I will soon be gone

Remember me, and let the love we have live on

And know that I'm with you the only way that I can be

So, until you're in my arms again, remember me


[Outro: Natalia Lafourcade & Miguel]

Que nuestra canción no deje de latir

Solo con tu amor yo puedo existir

Remember me

Que nuestra canción no deje de latir

Solo con tu amor yo puedo existir

Remember me

Kelly Clarkson Fans Declare the Singer a "National Treasure"
After Powerful Disney Cover


Kelly Clarkson is memorable for a plethora of reasons, and one that always leaves people moved is the ability to evoke emotion from any song she sings.

The Grammy Award winner showed off her incredible vocal skills during an April 18 taping of The Kelly Clarkson Show, where she's well-known for performing musical covers in her "Kellyoke" segment. While she's sung covers made famous in movies in the past, this time she nodded to the world of Disney with a rendition of "Remember Me" from the Pixar animated film Coco (which won Best Original Song at the 2018 Academy Awards).

As the American Idol alum donned a simple black dress, Kelly shocked viewers by not only slowing down the tempo of the song, but singing in both Spanish and English. What's more, the show's social team went on X (formerly known as Twitter) and let everyone know Kelly's not a singer to forget any time soon.

"Remember Me 🎶," read the official caption.

When fans of the former The Voice coach caught wind of her powerful "Kellyoke" cover, they took to the comments to share how impactful the performance was for them.

"Kelly Clarkson, a national treasure," one person declared on X. "Really got the chills on that one. Beautiful!!" another wrote. "Good god that voice," a different follower added.

  1. FYI, your Post about Casey's Revenge ( https://reslater.blogspot.com/2012/06/casey-at-bat-san-francisco-examiner.html ) claims it was first published in The Nashville Tennessean, 1907. I have found earlier instances of that poem. The earlier I've found is the Feb/28/1906 Buffalo Times. But that instance attributes it to the Cleveland News. I believe Rice's home paper at that time was the News, so if you locate that, it's probably the first publication.
