When you walk through the storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of the lark

Walk on, through the wind
Walk on, through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone

You listen to music whilst walking? What a philistine. A self respecting walker is at one with nature, and would prefer to listen to cows shitting and trees creaking. All in anticipation of a pint of bearded mouldtoss ale at the end of a great day. I think most would prefer listening to music they like, rather than a song that in some way losely alludes to walking, rivers or the weather.For the record I like to listen to a bit of 70s prog rock whilst anticipating a pint of Stella with added E numbers. Oh and speaking of wife beater, River Deep Mountain High by Ike and Tina Turner. Ta very much

Is this where I sign, like Midgetarget? Lucky you signed yours or I'd never have known whose post it was.

Road to Hell. Chris Rea.
I'll get me coat.

I would walk 500 miles
and i would walk 500 more
