| There are many stories in the wizarding world. Probably the biggest is that of Harry James Potter, the boy who lived and conquered the dark lord. However, Harry's story was not the only central one happening. Whilst he and his friends were struggling year after year, other students experienced their own problems and triumphs. Each student is unique, they all have their past, present and future. It's time to take a turn in the magical world that wasn't in the original books. Join The Magic! Find out more |

The Quidditch Stadium appears to be empty, so I set up the box for the singer to stand on. There isn't anyone here yet, so you know what? I think I'll sing... "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jed Rhodes, and this is caravan of love, originally by the housemartins." I take a breath. "Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready for the time of your life It's time to stand up and fight It's alright It's alright Hand in hand we take a caravan to the mother land One by one we gonna stand up with pride One that can't be denied Stand up Stand up From the highest mountain, valley low We'll join together with hearts of gold Now the children of the world can see This is a better place for us to be The place in which we were born So neglected and torn apart Every woman every man Join the caravan of love Stand up stand up Stand up Everybody take a stand Join the caravan of love Stand up stand up Stand up I'm your brother I'm your brother don't you know She's my sister She's my sister don't you know We'll be living in a world of peace And the day when everyone is free We'll bring the young and the old Won't you let your love flow, from your heart Every woman every man Join the caravan of love Stand up stand up Stand up Every body take a stand Join the caravan of love Stand up stand up Stand up I'm your brother I'm your brother don't you know She's my sister She's my sister don't you know So are you ready Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready You better get ready You better get ready You better get ready You better get ready..." I finish, and wait for the audience (if any) reaction. But there is no audience. On well, if I cared then I wouldn't have come out here. I'll sing another. Alone, originally by the Beautiful South. It's a beautiful day, the Sun shines, and I'm totally alone... "Like the contents of your handbag You don't know why it's there People ask you where you're heading You just answer "anywhere" We don't mean to be this vague It just happens that we are No-one asked us to elaborate We just shrug our shoulders and be And like the stories that just happened No-one thought of, no-one planned We could have ruled, we could have conquered Then we could have been a man We could be ex-husband We could be ex-wife But no-one looks at the menu in a greasy spoon life Alone, alone Half an hour is seven hours One day is several months Alone, alone A month is a calendar A year can be a decade spent Alone He knows "hello" in eighteen languages "I love you" in only one By the time he's got his phrase-book The chance is usually gone And we feel ourselves quite prepared But quite prepared for what We always took the lead Before we actually knew the plot And you can tell where we've been shopping By the bags beneath our eyes Make-up shoulders burden But the smile never lies We could be ex-husband We could be ex-wife But no-one looks at the menu in a greasy spoon life Alone, alone Half an hour is seven hours One day is several months Alone, alone A month is a calendar A year can be a decade spent Alone So empty at the airport You don't set off the doors We used to feel like chorus girls And now we feel like whores Hearts built like reservoirs Words built like dams Thoughts built like juggernauts Our actions built like prams And when the wind blows into our face We should be warmer and not colder Well, what price the charges On this cargo that we shoulder We could be ex-husband We could be ex-wife But no-one looks at the menu in a greasy spoon life Alone, alone Half an hour is seven hours One day is several months Alone, alone A month is a calendar A year can be a decade spent Alone And we only smoke when bored So we do two packs a day And we've lost the difference Between bored and lonely anyway... Alone, alone... Alone, alone... Alone, alone... |

I run into the quidditch stadium after hearing Jed's singing. Dare I do it? I had been bet I wouldn't do it, I needed to prove it to them... I will do it! I take a deep breath, regretfully seeing what I am about to do. I have to do it... as much as I hate to. I pull out my wand and aim it at Jed. "Muffliato!" I say, so no-one can hear the singing "Levicorpus!" His body flew into the air and stare at him mournfully. I have the fake muggle poo that he loves so much, kind of ironic. "Wingardium Leviosa!" I yell and direct the poo over to him and it lands on him and the area around him. I cancel my levicorpus spell and run out of the stadium in deep regret. Still at least that's 5 galleons better off in my pocket. |

"Edwin... O'Cookmate." I say, rather annoyed. But I get up, succesfully vanish the fake poop, and start again. My signature song, just to show them all. "It's not easy having yourself a good time Greasing up those bets and betters Watching out they don't four-letter I can kiss you both at the same time Smells-like something I've forgotten Curled up died and now it's rotten I'm not a gangster tonight Don't want to be a bad guy I'm just a loner baby And now you're gotten in my way I can't decide Whether you should live or die Oh, you'll probably go to heaven Please don't hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It's cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We're going for a ride It's a pain convincing people to like you If I stop now call me a quitter If lies were cats you'd be a litter Pleasing everyone isn't like you Dancing jigs until I'm crippled Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled I've got to hand it to you You've played by all the same rules It takes the truth to fool me And now you've made me angry I can't decide Whether you should live or die Oh, you'll probably go to heaven Please don't hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It's cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We're going for a ride Oh I could throw you in the lake Or feed you poisoned birthday cake I wont deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone Oh I could bury you alive But you might crawl out with a knife And kill me when I'm sleeping That's why I can't decide Whether you should live or die Oh, you'll probably go to heaven Please don't hang your head and cry No wonder why My heart feels dead inside It's cold and hard and petrified Lock the doors and close the blinds We're going for a ride" |

I smile. this hasn't been a total disaster after all. "Ok, you do that. And now", I say to the non-existent audience, "a song for a very special lady. I don't know who she is, but I will when I see her." "I HAVE ROAMED ABOUT THIS EARTH WITH JUST A SUITCASE IN MY HAND AND I'VE MET SOME BUG-EYED JOES I'VE MET THE BLESSED I'VE MET THE DAMNED. BUT OF ALL THE STRANGE STRANGE CREATURES FROM THE AIR, THE SEA AND LAND, OH MY GIRL, MY GIRL, MY PRECIOUS GIRL, I LOVE YOU, YOU UNDERSTAND. SO REEL ME IN MY PRECIOUS GIRL, COME ON TAKE ME HOME. CAUSE MY BODY'S TIRED OF TRAVELLIN' AND MY HEART DON'T WISH TO ROAM. WELL I HAVE WANDERED, I HAVE RAMBLED, I HAVE CROSSED THE STRATOSPHERE, AND I'VE SEEN A MESS OF PROBLEMS THAT I LONG TO DISSAPPEAR. NOW ALL I HAVE'S THIS ANGUISHED HEART, WHICH YOU HAVE BANISHED TOO. OH MY GIRL, MY GIRL, MY PRECIOUS GIRL JUST WHAT IS THIS MAN TO DO? SO REEL ME IN, MY PRECIOUS GIRL, COME ON TAKE ME HOME. CAUSE MY BODY'S TIRED OF TRAVELLIN', AND MY HEART DON'T WISH TO ROAM. WELL YOU TOOK ME IN, YOU STOLE MY HEARTS, I CANNOT ROAM NO MORE. CAUSE LOVE IT STAYS WITHIN YOU, IT DOESN'T WASH UPON A SHORE. OH A FIGHTING MAN FORGETS EACH NIGHT EACH NIGHT, EACH NOON, EACH FALL (?) OH BUT A FIGHTING MAN CANNOT FORGET WHY HIS LOVE DON'T ROAM NO MORE. SO REEL ME IN, MY PRECIOUS GIRL, COME ON TAKE ME HOME, CAUSE MY BODY'S TIRED OF TRAVELLIN, AND MY HEART DON'T WISH TO ROAM. YEAH, WALK WITH ME WITH ME, MY LOVE, MY LOVE WALK TALL WALK PROUD WALK MORE CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU, KNOW, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, YOU ARE MY SHINING STAR CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU, KNOW, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, YOU ARE MY SHINING STAR!" SO REEL ME IN, MY PRECIOUS GIRL, COME ON TAKE ME HOME, CAUSE MY BODY'S TIRED OF TRAVELLIN, AND MY HEART DON'T WISH TO ROAM. YEAH, REEL ME IN, MY PRECIOUS GIRL, COME ON TAKE ME HOME, CAUSE MY BODY'S TIRED OF TRAVELLIN, AND MY HEART DON'T WISH TO ROAM." |
