What is YOUR song??
Didnt know wether to put this in the music forum but thought it might be a general chat kindof thing,
I know everyone has songs which mean something or remind them of specific times or places but what is that song that is just all you??
Mine is Jimmy Eat world - 'The middle' or Feeder - 'We cant rewind' they are just MY songs because the lyrics apply to the past couple of years for me and when i listen to them they make me feel happy. I dont know how to explain it, i mean theres loads of songs which remind me of things like King Adora- 'suffocate' reminds me of a specific night but those songs are just me lol
Am I chatting bubbles or do some of you get me??

I think "First Time Ever" by Roberta Flack is my song.
That was one song that Len and I danced to at our wedding (the first dance) and Georgia was in our arms as well - so every time I hear that I get a tear in my eye, soppy moo that I am

It's probably a tie between The Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and Jimi Hendrix's "All Along the Watchtower" at the moment.
"Guitar" because it's such a soulful, melancholy song that's beautifully formed, and "Watchtower" is just down to the fact it's a damn-near perfect track. (It's Hendrix, what more reason does one need)
The Clash's "Guns Of Brixton" is a close third that edges to first when I'm in a paticularly anarchistic mood.
Well, narrowed it down to three at any rate!

Drive by Incubus. It practically makes me cry every time I hear it. A lot of their songs reflect my life. But this one means a hell of lot to me. When I was going through such a bad time and I had no one, this song was mine. Now I have a bf I feel i'm neglecting it. Drive makes me smile and cry now. I have someone who loves me but it makes me sad cos of all the times i've been through and the hurt and anguish

*rushes in before Syd beats me to it!* Radiohead - Creep 
Although there are a few others that I could also pick... Jimmy Eat World - The Middle is a very good choice. In a jokey way I often describe Suede - Trash as being about me (although you'd have to change the lyric "We're trash you and me" to "I'm trash me" so it wouldn't fit quite as well). At Uni, Toni Basil - Mickey was my song, not because it described me at all, just cos I danced like a fool (even more than usual) whenever it came on. Black Box Recorder - Seasons in the Sun is possibly my favourite song ever. And just for a tenuous link to my name, Paul Simon - You Can Call Me Al.
But no, my song is Radiohead - Creep.

Posted: 20:42 Apr 21 2003 Thats one of my favorites, its just a great song, it sounds really cheesey and like i'm making it up but I always hear it when I need reassuring. I had to break up with my boyfriend and I felt really guilty, I hadn't heard 'Drive' for ages and it came on MTV2 twice on the day I was going to do it, it made me feel better like everything would be ok, and as it turned out it was

Same band, different track. For yours truly.. it has to be Pardon Me. Personally this song simplifies me into just under 4 minutes. Never have I heard a more true word spoken. Even the way it is sung pretty much puts me into a lyrical piece of excellence.

"It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside..."
Oh no, wait...
'Thunder Road' by Bruce. Hope, longing, failure and redemption wrapped in poetry.

I didn't expect "my" songs to turn out so serious, heavy or angsty, but on thinking what they should be three songs clearly stood out -- "Venus in Furs" (Velvet Underground, though the Rosetta Stone cover is differently good), "Solitude Standing" (Susanne Vega) and "This Beautiful Pain" (Runrig).
Posted: 11:18 Apr 22 2003 That's definately one of my weepy songs.

That & Sarah Mcloughlin.
I have too many songs that represent my many moods, but I'm a bit partial to Sheryl Crow
It Don't Hurt & Believe are my faves.

There's a few songs that come to mind. No one song sums up all that is me, but these cover the major aspects, from my perspective:
Placebo - Nancy Boy
The Smiths - How Soon Is Now
Therapy? - Unbeliever
Foo Fighters - One by One
Depeche Mode - Judas
Though I'm sure I'll think of some others as well...
