Ally Mcbeal is my favorite TV series. It's created by David E. Kelley, the creator of "Picket Fences" and "Chicago Hope."

The first time when I saw it, I became a big fan of Ally. This TV series is my favorite TV show when I was in junior high and senior high. Ally Mcbeal is a lawyer who works in a interesting office, Cage/Fish & Associates. The story is mainly about Ally's life, love, friends, cases and illusions (or hallucinations ).

Most songs in Ally Mcbeal is sang by Vonda Shepard, who also plays a role as a bar singer in the series. All the songs in the series are great. Here, I'm going to introduce some of my favorites.

First, it's the theme song, Searching My Soul.

I've been down this road walkin' the line
That's painted by pride
And I have made mistakes in my life
That I just can't hide

Oh I believe I am ready for what love has to bring
Got myself together, now I'm ready to sing

I've been searchin' my soul tonight
I know there's so much more to life
Now I know I can shine a light
To find my way back home

One by one, the chains around me unwind
Every day now I feel that I can leave those years behind

Oh I've been thinking of you for a long time
There's a side of my life where I've been blind and so...

I've been searchin' my soul tonight
I know there's so much more to life
Now I know I can shine a light
Everything gonna be alright
I've been searchin' my soul tonight
Don't wanna be alone in life
Now I know I can shine a light
To find my way back home
Baby I been holding back now my whole life
I've decided to move on now
Gonna leave all my worries behind

Oh I belive I am ready for what love has to give
Got myself together now I'm ready to live

I've been searchin' my soul tonight
I know there's so much more to life
Now I know I can shine a light
Everything gonna be alright
I've been searchin' my soul tonight
Don't wanna be alone in my life
Now I know I can shine a light
To find my way back home

(Repeat Chorus)


Next, it's a love song of Ally and Larry in season IV, which I think it's the best season of Ally Mcbeal. It's a pity that Robert Downey Jr. had to get himself arrested and screwed up the finale. Although they cannot make it out in the series, I can always remember their sweet old times by this video.

 [For Once in My Life]

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dreams come true

For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before, oh
For once I've got someone
I know won't desert me
'Cause I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I've got love I know I can make it
For once in my life
I've got someone who needs me
