Re: Music to Run Out To

The Impossible Dream was composed by Mitch Leigh with lyrics by Joe Darion for the hit show Man of La Mancha - which was based on Miguel De Cervantes novel Don Quixote. In this song Don Quixote expresses his intention to battle all odds to achieve his goal. It is widely reckoned to be an anthem for Optimists in an age of rampant cynicism.
So it says on my cd of that well known british east Accrington songstress, Lesley Garrett . Yeah yeah - I know the locals insist on calling that area of the parish yorkshire !
