Songs You Relate To

[Rani G2]

Jim Croce
Operator
I

Isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine and to show
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well…



Bessie smith-outside of that
said for fun, I don't want you no more
And when I said that I made sweet papa sore
When he pawned my things, I said, "You're a dirty old thief"
Now, then he turned around and knocked out both of my teeth
Outside of that he's all right with me





Just love those 40/50s soul.

Wedding Present – Kennedy
Lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life? Too much apple pie
And now Harry's walked away with Johnny's wife
You've got to pick some people up
You've got to let some people go
But if Lee's name does come up
Oh well I really want to know
Because everybody loves a TV show

Rob Thomas, Little Wonders

Let it slide
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Until you feel it all around you
And I don't mind
If it's me you need to turn to
We'll get by
It's the heart that really matters in the end

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours still remain

 

[VioletButterfly]

Not the lyrics, but the music in and of itself. The guitars, piano, drums, and voices melding together. The rhythm and richness. Just awesome energy.

Journey - The Essentials (the more energized songs, i.e. skip the slow ones unless you want to cry, except for Lights)

The Party's Over
Stone in Love
Wheel in the Sky
Just the Same Way
Anytime
Any Way You Want It
Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin'

Also, Freedom 90, George Michael.

Again, just the music. Lets me remember that my body can do more than turn in and turn away. It can open up and grab a beat., it can move, it can sway, it can swing, and twist, and enjoy it instead of feeling ashamed. Just me in my loft with the butterflies and twinkle lights. Wheeee!

[RavenGirl]

My all time favorite band: Imagine Dragons

I love the song It Comes Back To You

4am beside myself
And what I think of mental health
All the things that worry me
All the things you don't believe
I've been told just what to do
Where to look and point my view
All the things that I could be
I think I learned in therapy
Am I just a vision you drew?

That's the first verse of the song. I have 2 of their CD's and like all the songs on both of them. If you haven't heard this song, I recommend you look it up and give it a listen. :tup:

 

[Lionheart]

This has been circulating through my mind all day.....

it is from ~The Eagles~ "The Sad Café"...

"((I look at the Years gone by and Wonder at the Powers that Be,
I don't know why fortune Smiles on some and lets the rest go Free....))"

Here are the complete lyrics:

Out in the shiny night
The rain was softly falling
The tracks that ran down the boulevard
Had all been washed away

Out of the silver light the past came softly calling
And I remember the times we spent
Inside the Sad Café

Oh it seemed like a holy place
Protected by amazing grace
And we would sing right out loud
The things we could not say
We thought we could change this world
With words like "love" and "freedom"
We were part of the lonely crowd
Inside the Sad Café

Oh, expecting to fly,
We would meet on that beautiful shore in the
Sweet by and by

Some of their dreams came true,
Some just passed away
And some of them stayed behind
Inside the Sad Café.

The clouds rolled in and hid that shore
Now that Glory Train, it don't stop here no more
Now I look at the years gone by,
And wonder at the powers that be.
I don't know why fortune smiles on some
And lets the rest go free

Maybe the time has drawn the faces I recall
But things in this life change very slowly,
If they ever change at all
There's no use in asking why,
It just turned out that way
So meet me at midnight baby
Inside the Sad Café.
Why don't you meet me at midnight baby,
Inside the Sad Café.

Silver and Gold

I'm gonna go out dancin' every night
I'm gonna see all the city lights
I'll do everything silver and gold
I got to hurry up before I grow too old

I'm gonna take a trip around the world

Fight Song - Calysta Bevier Cover <<< What I heard first & fell for

Fight Song Rachel Platten

Like a small boat
On the ocean
Sending big waves
Into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion

 

[Ronin]

Wrong Side Of Heaven - Five Finger Death Punch

I spoke to God today
And she said that she's ashamed
What have I become.
What have I done.

I spoke to the Devil today
And he swears he's not to blame
And I understood
'Cause I feel the same

I'm no hero and I'm not made of stone
Right or wrong
I can hardly tell
I'm on the wrong side of heaven and the righteous side of hell

The Jam - Modern world

Say what you like 'cause I don't care
I know where I am and going too
It's somewhere I won't preview
Don't have to explain myself to you
I don't give two f*cks about your review
