      The Official "Song That Describes Me Perfectly" Thread

      We've all had one of these moments... you're listening to music and all of a sudden the lyrics hit you.

      And you realize that this song must have been written about you, it's too similar to how your life is going to have been written about anyone else.

      Post that song here.

      If it doesn't fit anymore maybe give a background of when/why it did fit you.

      :peace:

      Gnarls Barkely - Whatever

      (Ignore the picture, every other video sucked worse than this one)


      [Cee-Lo]
      I don't have any friends at all
      Cause I have nothin in common with y'all
      So who's gonna catch me if I fall?
      My back's always against the wall
      I don't have anything to say
      I want everything to go my way
      Shut up mom! It is not okay
      I'm alone almost every day

      [Chorus]
      But it's cool (it's cool)
      It could be better (could be better)
      I don't care... (I don't care)
      Whatever (whatever) Hold up my man
      La la la la lah-lah-lah, whatever [3X]
      La la la la lah-lah-lah

      [Cee-Lo]
      Talk to my counselor 'bout how I feel
      Everyone agrees I could use some help
      I love my girl more, than I love myself
      But she's goin steady with someone else
      I don't know what else to do
      Said fuck me? Well fuck you too!
      I know it sounds real sad but true
      Bein alone is nothin new

      [Chorus]
      But it's cool (it's cool)
      It could be better (could be better)
      I don't care... (I don't care)
      Whatever (whatever) Whatever bitch!
      La la la la lah-lah-lah, whatever [3X]
      La la la la lah-lah-lah

      I know what that feels like, but the older I get the harder it gets to pin point which particular song, because you end up relating to none of the trendy music but then get completely lost and challenge you're self to the likes of Pink Floyd, The Beetles, Modest Mouse, Flaming Lips, and Radiohead and a lot of it is so abstract, you end up feeling left out a lot of the time, but it is triumphant feeling.

      touche with you on this one, but see what I'm saying? Its like all the underground music is about this "weirdness", but when you get their and look back on the trendy bands you go "now that's weird" and then you shake with disgust. haha

      Nile - Serpent-Headed Mask

      Aa-herit Nebu Huit-Ra
      We come before Thee wearing serpent headed Masks
      In sanguinary worship we offer the Tcheser-t Senfiu
      The sacrificial drink of the Gods of Blood
      In a goblet carved from a human skull

      Aa-t-aru
      Fiendish blood drinking reptile Lord of the Ankhit-Thekh
      Rites of bloodfeast
      We propitiate Thee with our own fluid of life
      And the freely offered flesh of these ritual prostitutes
      That Thou mayest copulate with thine self
      And spill Thy seed upon the Black Earth

      Aui-f-em-kha-nef Netri nek khefa
      We don the Abui ames Machta the ceremonial two horned phallus
      To become as like unto the two horned serpent god Sekhui
      We besmear ourselves with the bloodseed of
      The living serpent goddess Arati
      And with curved blades
      Shed our skin

      Truths are material, like vegetables and weeds; as to whether vegetable or weed, the decision lies in me.

      It's a Bit of a Pain - Faust

      It's a bit of a pain
      to be where I am
      It's a bit of a pain
      to be where I am
      but it's all right with
      but it's all right with
      but it's all right with

      who's really satisfied?
      who wouldn't sell his mind?
      who, who is satisfied?
      who wouldn't sell his mind?
      who can really say
      yes, it's alright with
      yes, it's alright with
      yes, it's alright with me


      Also, there's a wonderfully loud and annoying synthesizer going through the "all right with" parts.

      most songs that I feel fit me perfectly have no lyrics. I rarely find a song that can fit every aspect of how I feel and view myself. Too many different parts of my life seem just as important as the others

      Thats the reply I was aiming for. Too many songs hold all these different parts but they don't all explain everything combined. You're just going in circles picking up all those different pieces.

      This thought process is what got me into making my own music, which seems to suite my tastes a lot better the older I get and the more experience I gain.

      Also, I think unscrambling the song, and the mood is always a bit harder than having the lyrics hit you. Like, what was going on in there head?! haha

      Fischerspooner- Get Confused



      Do I like to have confusion?
      Yes I do
      Am I, am I in any danger?
      Yes I am
      Do I like what‘s happening?
      Yes I do
      And can I deal with it directly?
      Yes I can

      I take the trouble, I take the time
      I get the feeling that I‘m doing what‘s right
      I may be reckless, maybe a fool
      But I get excited when I get confused

      Will I have to start all over?
      Yes I will
      Had I the right to make those statements?
      Yes I had
      Shall I meet with opposition?
      Did I justify my actions?
      Have I forgotten what the question was?
      Yes I have

      I take the trouble, I take the time
      I get the feeling that I‘m doing what‘s right
      I may be reckless, maybe a fool
      But I get excited when I get confused

      Have I forgotten what the question was?
      When I, when I, when I get confused.

      The ability to happily respond to any adversity is the divine.

      The only songs that describe me the best are with my own language or my own songs

      but maybe one song in English that describes me is Heavy Fuel by Dire Straits it is also my one and true hangover song

      -------------------------------------------------
      Last time I was sober, man I felt bad
      worst hangover that I ever had
      it took six hamburgers, skotch all night,
      nicotine for breakfast just to put me right

      CHORUS
      'cos if you wanna run cool, if you wanna run cool
      you gotta run on heavy, heavy fool
      CHORUS END

      my life, it makes a perfect sense, lust and food and violence
      sex and money are my major kicks
      just get me in a fight I like the dirty tricks

      CHORUS

      my chick loves a man who is strong,
      the things she'll do for turning me on
      I love the babes, don't get me wrong
      hey, that's why I wrote this song

      I don't care if my liver is hangin' by a thread
      I don't my doctor says I ought to be dead
      when my ugly, big car won't go up this hill
      I'll write my suicide note on a hundred dollars bill

      CHORUS

      Jujutsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. That's what jujutsu is.

      This is so tough. To a lesser extent, I guess Life In A Glass House would fit me pretty well.

      Smell of Desire - Enigma

      No lyrics...just blissful ambient music that embodies the essence of all that was, is and ever will be...me.

      Too bad you can't understand this one. A song by the dutch comedian Youp van 't Hek. Its meaning is pretty much 'memento mori et carpe diem', but also has an air of melancholy: we are all gonna die, But I don't want to. And worst of all: we never know when it's gonna happen. So therefore, we're gonna have to have fun and enjoy this life while we can.
      Which is, pretty much, how I live my life.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOf4uNwvC6c & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnrZc...eature=related
      This one symbolizes to me, pure happiness and joy and fun (it always conjures up a smile whenever I hear it), and I like to think of myself as being like that ^^. A slightly quirky person that's fun to be around.

      And that's all.. for now, at least...

      What if I were to say "Everything - Radiohead - Kid A"????

      How can that song explain anyone? even Tom Yorke?!

      Its the music I listen to, but if anyone were to put a Radiohead song up here it would be kind of duh-ish.

      every Linkin Park song used to describe me when I was younger. I was emo, angry all the time, and couldn't get over a certain girlfriend. pretty amazing, though, how I vibed with all the lyrics.

      not anymore, though, I don't understand the songs anymore, haha, but I still listen to them from time to time. and now I know there are a lot prettier girls out there with much better personalities than my ex

      Thats lucky. If any of Linkin Park's songs describe you, its like the band's every song was about you.

      yeah, it was kinda like that. I felt every song was on the same wavelength. I see why Linkin Park is so marketable, so many kids also are emo, angry, and can't get over an ex, hehe

      but it's really not a good place to be in for very long at all.....

      and for the record, I identify with all sexual songs now, hahaha. I love modern hip-hop and it's corrupted content

      so guys these days rap about bling bling, sex, guns, so what? have a little fun, philosophers
