Songs That Changed the World--The Most Important Songs of the Rock Era: "Fragile" by Sting

    We sing along to songs on the radio, we hum them, we whistle, we make up our own words to them, we turn them up, we use them for mood music, but when a song really makes us think, the song and its writer(s) have accomplished something great.


    Inside the Rock Era is saluting those songs that, in their own way, helped change the world.  For if the song changed one person, it changed the course of history.  It is appropriate on this most evil of days to remind everyone that "...Nothing ever came from violence...Nothing ever could."  This one is the great song "Fragile" from Sting.



    "Fragile"

    Words and Music by Sting

    If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
    Drying in the colour of the evening sun
    Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
    But something in our minds will always stay
    Perhaps this final act was meant
    To clinch a lifetime's argument
    That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
    For all those born beneath an angry star
    Lest we forget how fragile we are

    On and on the rain will fall
    Like tears from a star like tears from a star
    On and on the rain will say
    How fragile we are how fragile we are

    On and on the rain will fall
    Like tears from a star like tears from a star
    On and on the rain will say
    How fragile we are how fragile we are
    How fragile we are how fragile we are
