"The Last Song Ever" - Secondhand Serenade

C'mon people don't just post the link, tell us what it is too, I don't want to have to click on every link to see what song it is, maybe I already know the song and don't have to click on it.
Go read "Ishmael" a novel by Daniel Quinn. It will literally change your life.

"Morgenstern" by Rammstein (video is live in concert)
For those interested...

German verbs have a lot of double-meanings, and Rammstein often exploit that in much of their lyric writing. "Morgenstern" ("Morning Star") is a song not only about self-image, but on how much society judges people based on external appearance and loving with the heart and not the eyes.

A rough translation I grabbed from the web... I corrected a few spots where I think the translator didn't quite communicate the full intended meaning into English...

She's so ugly that it gets dark
when she looks into the sky
Then the light is frightened
It shines onto her face from below
So she must hide during the day
She just doesn't want to scare the light
She lives in the shadows until the glow fades
She sees a star shining in the twilight and pleads
Paint beauty onto my cheeks

Morningstar, oh shine
onto the visage of mine
Cast a warm light
onto my frightening face
Tell me I'm not alone
(Ugly, you are ugly)

I went alone in the night
The late birds no longer sang
I saw children of the sun in the throng so
I cried into the starry heavens

Morningstar, oh shine
onto the beloved of mine
Cast a warm light
onto her frightening face
Tell her she's not alone

Morningstar, oh shine
onto the soul of mine
Cast a warm light
onto a heart that's breaking
Tell her that I'm crying
Because you, you are ugly
You are simply ugly
Humans are just creatures of the eye
Beautiful things are what I want
But you, you aren't beautiful, no

Morningstar, oh shine
onto the beloved of mine
Cast a warm light
onto her frightening face
Tell her she's not alone

And the star wants to shine
onto the beloved of mine
It warms my breast and shakes
where life beats
To see with the heart
she is simply gorgeous
