    And you'll be
    In a world of pure imagination
    Take a look
    And you'll see
    Into your imagination
    We'll begin
    With a spin
    Traveling in
    The world of my creation
    What we'll see
    Will defy
    Explanation
    If you want to view paradise
    Simply look around and view it
    Anything you want to, do it
    Want to change the world?
    There's nothing to it
    There is no
    Life I know
    To compare with pure imagination
    Living there
    You'll be free
    If you truly wish to be
    If you want to see magic lands
    Close your eyes and you will see one
    Want to be a dreamer, be one
    Anytime you please and please save me one
    Come with me
    And you'll be
    In a world of pure imagination
    Take a look
    And you'll see
    Into your imagination
    There is no
    Place to go
    To compare with your imagination
    So go there
    To be free
    If you truly wish to be
    Living there
    You'll be free
    If you truly wish to be

  • @DenSanAZ
    @DenSanAZ Před 8 lety +1

    Since Gene Wilder died recently, this song has been going through my head a lot - plus Barbra Streisand is doing a duet using this song with Seth McFarland (another fantastic singer - the musical numbers of Family Guy are some of my favorites just to hear Seth's beautiful voice), I wanted to hear it so I just came to CZcams to see who has sung it and I see Josh Groban. I like Josh, I've always thought he has a fantastic voice - but I wasn't a true fan, just someone who liked his version of "The Prayer" with Charlotte Church. I watched his video of "Pure Imagination" and was totally blown away. Josh is a Powerhouse singer, he hits every key/note he can be beyond powerful and back it off to a very long, sustained, perfectly held ending that leaves one with tears in their eyes. He's grown into a beautiful man, gorgeous eyes that hit the camera just enough without overdoing the eye contact. Of course, I've now listened to a number of his other songs and some are great, I love them, some aren't for me - and such is life. Obviously there's NO comparing Josh's version with Gene's they are so vastly different and they both work for the reason intended. That's the wonderful thing about music, it can be twisted and turned to give it what you want, make it what you want, no 2 versions need be remotely close to each other. In this case, I love Gene's version for the scene and mood it was in, I love Josh's version for the same.

However, after I heard him sing it, all my reservations melted like chocolate. He has a stunning voice (he's one of my favourite artists) and does so much justice to not only the song but to Gene Wilder and the creators of the film as well. I cannot wait until this album comes out.

    I first heard this song sung by Johnny Mathis and fell in love with it. Josh Groban sings it well. he and Johnny Mathis have done a duet with a different song. the mood of this song is wonderfully romantic, and Josh Groban sings this song with strong emotional conviction.

    When I first heard you sing the souncloud clip of this song at x-mas, I knew immediately that this album would be "to die for"!!! You're like the Pied Piper of music. I hear you sing and I know I'd go anywhere with you. Expressions of such beauty are what make life worth living. That and laughter. You are a master of the funny bone, as well, and I'm consistently tickled by your tweets. You have everything we need. Thank you for sharing yourself with us.

    why does this song make me cry? the melody and harmony are so haunting and dark but also happiness is being talked about.

      It is deliberately melancholic. The main inspiration was "Somewhere over the Rainbow" which is also a melancholic tune.

      Songs like this were born during the great depression and the World Wars.... The song writer drew on his childhood experiences to create masterpieces like this and "the cardigan can".

      Because you realize that your imagination is the only True and real God.The real worship of God is to use the gifts he has given you.Best:)

    Hi Mr. Josh Groban I just wanted you to know that I bought your "Stages" album for my uncle Michael a couple of months ago. He has cerebral palsy but he really likes music. You are one of my favorite singers so I thought my uncle Michael would enjoy your singing :)
