Songs you can relate to
Dont u just love it when you hear a song, an you look at the lyrics and you can totally recognise what its about. It makes you feel really special lol, in a way. For me, i can relate to the song Repulsion by dinosaur jr. I interpret it as being unconfident, shy and paranoid, not knowing who you are and how to be. Thats what i think anyway, and i know ive felt like that before. Anybody kno what im on about?
I feel your eyes upon me How should I act today To feel so unsure always Give up or now keep on this way The silence taps my elbow It's good, least that's what she said I could run but I stand and greet it Boredom won't starve as long as I feed it The world drips down like gravy The thoughts of love so hazy Everyone's ideal of fun Repulsion Try to wake up, try to break it open It's not quite the right feeling I'll just keep on hoping The girls, they smile and say hello The darkness drags me back home It's hard to face it Still waiting, still alone The world drips down like gravy The thoughts of love so hazy Everyone's ideal of fun Repulsion Try to wake up, try to break it open It's not quite the right feeling I'll just keep on hoping The world drips down like gravy The thoughts of love so hazy Everyone's ideal of fun Repulsion |
total peace - sebadoh
All I need is one true friend I want total peace of mind To leave the hurting world behind I’m not scared; I swear I’m free It may collapse the fear That burns to bring the worst from me Much too smart to sound uptight Not to cheat what I deserve Nothing hidden and nothing wasted So far from dead, frustrated Too smart to ask for more This is all I’ve waited for Nothing hidden and nothing wasted Nothing past the love I’ve tasted It’s wrong but right; magic change I finally hurt to live on up to this name Not right; it never changes When finally hurt to live on up to this thing unmade bed, sy LOOK WHO’S COME BACK HOME AGAIN LOSER LOOKING FOR HIS LUCKY BREAK THIS TIME HE SAYS HE JUST NEEDS A FRIEND AIN’T ON THE RUN HE AIN’T ON THE TAKE CAN YOU UNLOCK THE DOOR BABE WILL YOU JUST UNDO THE CHAIN WILL YOU TAKE YR TIME BEFORE YOU MIX UP LOVE, HIS LOVE AND PAIN LONELINESS LAYS DOWN HIS HEAD WANTS TO GET YOU HIGH, BETTER TAKE IT NOW A MAN LIKE THAT’S LIKE AN UNMADE BED STAINED EYES SEARCHING FOR ANOTHER WAY OUT DOES IT MATTER IF YOU EVEN WANT THIS MAYBE YOU JUST DON’T CARE ALL I KNOW IT TAKES JUST ONE KISS, BABE FOR YOU - HE’S NEVER THERE HEY I KNOW IT’S KINDA HARD AND MAYBE THIS TIME IT WILL NEVER END HIT AND RUN LOVER BACK IN YR HEART ANSWERED PRAYERS YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE SENT CUZ NOW THAT YR IN HIS ARMS BABE YOU KNOW YR JUST IN HIS WAY SUCKERED BY HIS FATAL CHARM, OH GIRL IT’S TIME WE GETAWAY |

We’re caught in a landslide. -- The minutes come tumbling down,
and into an hour’s time, within which a day’s worth of work must be planned out and pan out for every week to be worth the weekends of downtime and months of ennui that kills and years of resentment of everyone’s contentment, and you can’t justify it, still. I tell you my reasons, you don’t tell me your inside jokes until I’ve gone bitter on every word that you’ve spoken, and all of your kind words, amounting to nought but a token in all their inaction, will tumble away with the days and nights of together, as we’re really not ’together’ at all, but ’parallel.’ Now i’m walking on downtown, in a town that is not my home, and shopping for breakfast, to be eaten all alone and dreaming of houses, none of them that I own -- but that’s not my provence -- that’s not for what I am known. So I gather around me all the little pieces of a song, and fit them where they belong. So go to your downtown, and bring what you’ve brought back home, and you never should worry -- your hours will now be as long as the days that you hurried, and months when it all seemed wrong, in all of the action, will tumble away with the years, and parallel evenings, and parallel tracks of our tears, and nights of together are where? So I gather around me all the little pieces of a song, and fit them where they belong. |
Sad songs.
Xiu Xiu - Apistat Commander Sufjan Stevens - Ypsilanti |
because of some weird archetype or synchronicity event, i can relate to dashboard confessional's screaming infidelities so much it's creepy.
i mean, i would do good asking the dude if he dated the same girl i did |
doctor worm by they might be giants. i often feel myself feeling like a worm who plays drums in a rock 'n roll band

The artist whose songs I relate to most is, without question, Blowfly.

Any song about heartbreak. I've lived it too many times.

Joni Mitchell - Black Crow
There’s a crow flying Black and ragged Tree to tree He’s black as the highway that’s leading me Now he’s diving down To pick up on something shiny I feel like that black crow Flying In a blue sky I took a ferry to the highway Then I drove to a pontoon plane I took a plane to a taxi And a taxi to a train I’ve been traveling so long How’m I ever going to know my home When I see it again I’m like a black crow flying In a blue, blue sky In search of love and music My whole life has been Illumination Corruption And diving, diving, diving, diving. Diving down to pick up on every shiny thing Just like that black crow flying In a blue sky I looked at the morning After being up all night I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light I looked out the window And I saw that ragged soul take flight I saw a back crow flying In a blue sky Oh I’m like a black crow flying In a blue sky |
ummmmmmm....
I was just wondering.... do you like me? Use just once and destroy Invasion of our piracy Afterbirth of a nation Starve without your skeleton key I love you for what I am not I do not want what I have got A blanket acne'ed with ciggarette burns Speak at once while taking turns What is what i need What is wrong with me What is what i need i'm gonna do with what you think If you ever think at all Bi-polar opposites attract All of a sudden my water broke I love you for what I am not I do not want what I have got A blanket acne'ed with ciggarette burns Second-rate third degree burns what is what i need What is wrong with me What do I think I think hate your enemies Save, save your friends Find, find your place Speak, speak the truth what is what i need What is wrong with me what is what i need What do I think I think Use just once and destroy Invasion of our piracy Afterbirth of a nation Starve without your skeleton key What is wrong with me what is what i need (x2) What do I think i think What is wrong with me what is what i need (x2) What do I think i think |
sliver by nirvana reminds of me of my childhood

Throbbing Gristle - Discipline says it all for me. As does Come with me by Special D.
"WE WANT. DISCIPLINE..." |
"The Moon" by the Microphones
"and you held my hand you almost got to start feeling me I finally felt like I was breathing free" "I went back to feel alone there I went back there by myself I gave up on everything that we had felt" "there is nothing left except certain death and that was comforting under the moon" "I went out last night to forget that I went out and stared it down but the moon just stared back at me and in its light I saw my two feet on the ground" It's quite an emotional song. I just posted a couple of the lyrics, but the whole song blows my mind. |

Anything by Nirvana reminds me of my childhood....well from 9 up. |

Also the first three lines in total peace ( All I need is one true friend/I want total peace of mind/To leave the hurting world behind) is part of my worldview, or at least my love view. |
The intro lines to Beck's "Atmospheric Conditions" are always great to sing along to, especially with Calvin Johnson's deep voice. Unity in hopelessness:
"There's nobody There's no mountain There's no tunnel You can't get from there to here You can't get from here to there..." Another Beck track, "Ramshackle", the closer to Odelay, I really get into. He's like a friend in the room on this song, especially in these lines: "Your train's in the sand Ramshackle land Let the rats watch the races We will go Nowhere we know 'Til we find our one and all" I love Beck's lyrics, really. I feel bad for saying this on SY's corporate site, but yeah. "Drink mah coffee with a hubcap... yeah". |
Im a pretty cold person, and never really connect with anything. I think its stupid to have meaningful lyrics in a song, its more interesting to express no emotion at all. I wish I was a robot so I wouldnt have to think about this.

"Let the eagle soar,
Like she’s never soared before. From rocky coast to golden shore, Let the mighty eagle soar. Soar with healing in her wings, As the land beneath her sings: 'Only god, no other kings.' This country’s far too young to die. We’ve still got a lot of climbing to do, And we can make it if we try. Built by toils and struggles God has led us through." |
My Cat says eeeee-ack
Hit the North 95% of [hayseeds or corn-pone], guaranteed Computers infest the hotels Cops can't catch criminals But what the heck, they're not too bad, they talk to God Religioussssss Hit the North Manacled to the city, manacled to the city All estate agents alive yell down nights in hysterical breath Those Northern lights... so pretty Those big big big wide streets Those useless MPs Savages... Hit the North (Manacled to the system) From the back third eye psyche, the reflected mirror of delirium, Eastender and Victoria's lager, the induced call, mysterious, comes forth - Hit the North (Savages) Hit the North |
You forgot the synth part... pretty quintessential to the song if you ask me - Dunk dunk dunk dunkDUNK. (doo)
This is the Fall song that most frequently passes my brain: tight faded male arse Decadence and Anarchy He said, he smiled Something to dance to A certain style SMILE SMILE SMILE SMILE Meat Animals SMILED SMILED Patchwork jacket from the top of his ears Shaved Relation with fellow age group, and opposite birds SMILES Wants anarchy SMILED The club nerve and poses Physical awareness Smiles Take the chicken run, take the chicken run To the toilet In the above, designed from above club Makes ginger "Go on, you can do it!" SMILE SMILES Wants anarchy SMILED Is the fungus damp in the cellar? Positive G.B.H. SMILES With his friends, ask for cigarettes SMILES Sparks off Repeal gun laws in my brain Sparks off Give us a gun if I got one DAMN! Grin Damn Grin UP UP UP UP UP UP UP UP UP UP SMILE! SMILED! |
I the live version of 'Glam Racket' on the 'Oxymoron' compilation LP, Brix Smith sings of certain famous celebrity types (and Suede in particular): they say you are a star, but I don't give a fuck, I watch your head expanding as you're running out of luck. I can relate to thosre sentiments - I thought of using it as my signiature.
