That was a fanfic?  Ack!  Please, no more Brittany Spears.. .The one I mentioned was enough.

Seriously BOS (Back on Subject):

Isn't the "mer-song" of the egg music too in a way?  This might work into the theory you are sporting, and I do see where you are taking this.

I also believe, on Fawkes, that he and his song will be important as the series progresses.  He's been in three out of four of the books now...

  I believe that I posted this before, and I didn't get any replies...I 
  don't think.  Ok I'll try it again and maybe somebody will actually 
  give their input.

  In PS/SS after the students have sung the Hogwarts Anthem (which I 
  can't wait to see how they adapt to film! errr anyhow...) Dumbledore 
  says something to the effect of (I don't have SS w/ me now.) "Ah, 
  music, a magic beyond all we do here."  Now there are a lot of ways 
  that this could be interpreted.  Here are a few...

  1)Dumbledore is simply making a general statement about how music can 
  move a person.  Specifically a headmaster listening to his school 
  song.  If this is true then please disregard this whole message.

  2)On the other hand, knowing Jo's love of small hints being important 
  later on I would interpret it as something like this...Dumbledore 
  seems to know that music is a powerful type of magic (?) (I guess 
  really wouldn't even be considered magic though).  Examples- In CoS 
  Harry seems to be in a situation that is not very hopeful until the 
  arrival of the Pheonix, AND the Pheonix Song.  This same "music" is 
  heard in the cemetary in GoF.  Is it possible that I could have 
  something here!?!?

  I guess that I'm probably over-reading in this case but one of my 
  favorite pet theories is that Voldy's ultimate downfall would be to 
  the tune of- "Oops I did it again" (JUST KIDDING! Though that was a 
  very funny fanfic....)
