You'll Never Walk Alone.

It's June, and if you're a lover of musicals, you're probably thinking of Carousel by Rogers and Hammerstein.  I know I am.  It's certainly not my favorite musical, as I can't really warm to any of the characters (tangent- I have the same problem with The Music Man) but there is one redeeming quality to Carousel, and that is Cousin Nettie.
When the hero dies a violent death, his pregnant wife turns to her Nettie, who comforts her with the song which has since become an anthem of hope, strangely enough, for the Liverpool Football Club.
So here's a bit of encouragement from Rogers and Hammerstein.
