I'm sorry this is so late, I was in bed with the flu last week and am just now starting to feel human again. I hope to have the banners done soon for Challenge 181.
Information for Challenge 182 is under the cut. The deadline for entries is Friday, November 20, midnight EST.
There has been a lot of buzz the last few months surrounding the new Phantom of the Opera sequel, Love Never Dies. There have been mixed reactions to the idea of a sequel - some love the idea, while others hate it. Either way, I thought it might be fun to have a challenge using the lyrics to the song released recently, Till I Hear You Sing Once More.
The challenge focuses on the stage production, but if you would like to use pictures from the movie which you think fit the lyrics, you are more than welcome to use them.
--You may submit up to 6 icons, all effects except animation are allowed.
--Icons must have at least 2 consecutive words from the lyrics.
--Icons must meet LJ standards of 100x100 pixels and no more than 40k in size.
--Submit both the icon and the URL.
--The same picture may be used more than once but the icons must be very different.

Till I Hear You Sing Once More
Lyrics by Glenn Slater
The day starts, the day ends
Time crawls by
Night steals in, pacing the floor
The moments creep,
Yet I can’t bear to sleep
Till I hear you sing
And weeks pass, and months pass
Seasons fly
Still you don’t walk through the door
And in a haze
I count the silent days
Till I hear you sing once more.
And sometimes at night time
I dream that you are there
But wake holding nothing but the empty air
And years come, and years go
Time runs dry
Still I ache down to the core
My broken soul
Can’t be alive and whole
Till I hear you sing once more
And music, your music
It teases at my ear
I turn and it fades away and you’re not here
Let hopes pass, let dreams pass
Let them die
Without you, what are they for?
I’ll always feel
No more than halfway real
Till I hear you sing once more.
