Food for thought.

Nov 30, 2005 23:52

Hypothetical situation: Someone you've just met wants to know what it is that makes you tick. What are you all about? You pop in a song that describes to him/her in the best way possible what and who you are. The song you pop in is __________. Why?

If you want, you can leave lyrics, just explain yourself, or both.

For me, it's My Stupid ( Read more... )

My (current) life-soundtrack song would be "Everybody's Changing" by Keane:

You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it
I don't see how you can
You're aching, you're breaking
And I can see the pain in your eyes
Says everybody's changing
And I don't know why

So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same

You're gone from here
And soon you will disappear
Fading into beautiful light
Cause everybody's changing
And I don't feel right

So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same

So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the sameAnd I would probably be more interested in what people I actually know would have to say more so ( ... )

Yeah, my friends and I were having a blast figuring out what song would best suit our other friends, but since I can't do that with a portion of my reading audience (I've never met some of you) then I decided to go with the celebrity people.

Hmmm...I may just steal this and put it in my own journal to see what those folks'll say...*strokes chin thoughtfully*

I'm going to go with "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette. Reasons ( ... )

I'm going with "Things Happen" by Kirsty MacColl. Reasons:
1. The lyrics are beautiful
2. The chorus exactly describes how I feel with watching everyone fall in love recently,
3. The song is really calming and comfortable, with just Kirsty's beautiful British voice and acoustic guitar.

Every Friday night she rides the whole way over town ( ... )

A great song. And it gives hope that we'll see the same kind of love in our own lives.

The song is "Our Finest Year" by Better Than Ezra. The song makes me want to take hold of life, and make as much out of it as I can. Do what I want to do, travel where I want to see, live out my dreams and stop underestimating myself.

It's actually one of my favorites. A great song. Good choice.

I'm gonna go with "Institutionalized" by Suicidal Tendencies ( ... )

Yeah, I really couldn't have picked a better set of lyrics for you.
