I love alliteration. In fact, I like to say the word "alliteration."
Some of my favorite lyrics "consist in repeating the same consonant sound at the beginning of two or more words in close succession." **Thanks Wikipedia.**
And one of the best examples is from this great pop song, All You Wanted, by Michelle Branch.
The lyric:
I'm sinking slowly so hurry hold me
And then it continues with a few more powerful words:
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone
I love the "where you go when you're gone."
Michelle Branch is not an artist I commonly scan for much on YouTube. So I was very pleased to find some great versions of this song. And it reminded how much I really enjoyed her music.
Here's a nice acoustic version of "All You Wanted." My favorite lyric shows up right around 1:33.
