What song says something about you?

I occasionally come across songs that have a message or something in the music that I identify with strongly. Even though I recently turned the big 6-0, emotionally and musically I'm about 15, and the song that says a lot about me is ZZ Tops "Can't Stop Rockin'" on their Afterburner CD. I don't know if this is their own song or not?

When in a more reflective mood, Melissa Etheridge's "Precious Pain" is another I'd choose, and it is her song. How about other A'Gon forum readers? Thanks and Cheers. Craig

David Gray

"Living Room"

Then again, most of David's music has some meaning for me...not to mention my respect as being one of the most talented musicians ever. Happy belated b-day Gar, hope my system is 'essentially complete' before I turn 60; I got 30 years to go;)

Hey Y'all,

The band is Disturbed. The song is titled "The Sickness". Listen to the song, from the disc, not on the radio, and you will understand what I mean when I say, "I have a wonderful relationship with my mother"........John

Hey Craig;

My two favorite songs (to this date) are ones from my youth.

"Ghost Rider's in the Sky" (favorite version by "Miss" Peggy Lee)

"Over the Rainbow" (many versions to choose from)

Never thought about how I identify with the songs, but they are always with me on a day to day basis whether I listen to music, or not.

On the otherhand I have been tortured (day to day) by little miss Temple's version of "The Good Ship Lollipop" (complete with tap dancing solos) for as long as I can remember.
