My friend ,the talented Kiran @ikamera won Song Challenge 7 with this awesome image:
Because she is crazy busy right now,she has asked me to take over her challenges.
So here we go with Song Challenge 8 : MacArthur Park
From Wikipedia:
"MacArthur Park" is a song by Jimmy Webb, originally composed as part of an intended cantata. Webb initially brought the entire cantata to The Association, but the group rejected it.Richard Harris was the first to record the song, in 1968; it was subsequently covered by numerous artists. Among the best-known covers are Donna Summer's disco arrangement from 1978 and Waylon Jennings's version recorded in 1969 and his recording of the song from 1976. Maynard Ferguson,Stan Kenton and Woody Herman all performed big-band jazz arrangements.
While it was a commercially successful song multiple times after it was released, "MacArthur Park" used flowery lyrics and metaphors (most famously, love being likened to a cake left out in the rain) that were considered by media such as the Los Angeles Times to be "polarizing" and "loopy".

"There would be another song for me
For I will sing it
There would be another dream for me
Someone will bring it
I will drink the wine while it is warm"

"Spring was never waiting for us, girl
It ran one step ahead..."
"And never let you catch me looking at the sun..."
"And my passion flow like rivers through the sky.."
