"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

Disney's "Remember Me" from the Movie, "CoCo"




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.

You Never Said Goodbye
by Unknown

You never said I'm leaving
You never said goodbye.
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knew why.

A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place,
That no one could ever fill.

It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone
For part of me went with you,
The day God took you home.

I Can Only Imagine
Song by MercyMe

Lyrics

I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk by Your side
I can only imagine
What my eyes would see
When Your face is before me
I can only imagine
Yeah

Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel?
Will I dance for You Jesus
Or in awe of You be still?
Will I stand in Your presence
Or to my knees, will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When that day comes
And I find myself
Standing in the Son
I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship You
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you Jesus
Or in awe of You be still?
Will I stand in your presence
Or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you Jesus
Or in awe of You be still?
Will I stand in your presence
Or to my knees, will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?

I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine
I can only imagine, yeah-yeah
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship You
I can only imagine

Every mother-daughter relationship isn't perfect.
by Sherry A. Innes
October 2, 2005

A must-read for every mother with a teenage daughter. Margaret Johnson's description of Kathi's emerging independence and how it affected their relationship is honest. Kathi's boundless energy and determination, so cute in the little girl, was exhausting when the adolescent Kathi continually clashed with mom. Her choice of a best friend was a huge blow to her parents, especially her mom. It was more than the usual teenage "stuff"; there was a serious personality conflict between them. Before the book is over, Kathi has a life-changing experience that profoundly improves the relationship with her mother. Sadly, Kathi's life was cut short, leaving Margaret to sort things out. This great little book was the result. If she had lived, Margaret might never have shared Kathi's story.

When I read the book in the early 70s, it didn't occur to me that one day I would relate to so much of it. My tiny daughter and I had enjoyed a special relationship so I was unprepared for the clashes that surfaced during adolescence. Re-reading the book during that experience gave me encouragement to pray and keep being the mom. It helped! My daughter is now happily married to a mild-mannered guy who truly appreciates her strong opinions and independence.
