R. Kelly's I Believe I can Fly.

Anyone who hears that song can just cry their heart out. It's one of the greatest songs of all time. Whenever I'm feeling down(like now), I pop it in my iPod and just listen to it for inspiration. It gives me hope when there is no hope.

You're not human if you don't cry when you hear this song...it's sad and inspirational all at the same time.

I think the song you're talking about is Lose Yourself. There is no Opportunity by Eminem. :)

Twiztid-We Don't Die. (Taught me never to give up any fight I may have.)
ICP-How Many Times? (Taught me a great deal about anger.)
Drowning Pool-Step Up. (Taught me to never back away from any of life's challenge.)
Illegal Substance-Step to the Floor. (Taught me to give 100%.)

"Don't Want You Back"-Eamon (helped me to get over a messy break-up it especially helps if you scream along to the 'F*** you you ho' parts)
"Don't Stay"-Linkin Park (this song also helped me get over the same break-up)
"Juneau"-Funeral For A Friend (I still don't understand what this song is exactly about. I think it's about being heart-broken and finding out that you were nothing but a sex object to someone you loved so that's why I've added this in)
"We Are Godzilla, You Are Japan"-Lostprophets (a good song to help release the anger and hatred)

Alice in Chains - Down in A Hole : Describes a relationship between myself and a very special lady to a t, and the subsequent despair it caused
Pearl Jam - Betterman : Says about a part of my life whereby my world was my own prison
Silverchair - My Favourite Thing : If your ever stuck on how to express how you feel about the person you love, then this song will help

:cry:

---Anyways. Limp Bizkit's "Drown". Whenever I'm depressed, I listen to it---it's really easy on the ears, and really goes along with whatever I'm feeling. I have it on repeat until I'm done thinking about whatever it is that's getting me down...it really helps to clear my head.

---The Verve's "Bitterswet Symphony", after really listening to the lyrics, is a great song. I can relate to it surprisingly well.

That should do it, for now.


:D

One day not so long ago I was a bit depressed and under the weather. I was flicking through the channels on TV when all of a sudden I came across a live orchastrated (sp?) concert performing all the music from the Disney animated movies. Out of curiousity, I decided to watch. Then, "Whole New World" the song from Aladdin came on. My jaw dropped about 25% of the way through the song and by 50%, I could feel hot tears streaming down my face. I hadn't felt this good in ages. All the themes in the song where simultaneously tugging at my heartstrings. Hope, wonder, amazement, happiness, love...

It was as if time had froze, and for the duration of the song, I was in a better place.

I don't know that name of the song but the lyrics go
"Do i ever cross your mind anytime?
Do you ever wake up reaching out to me?
Do I ever cross your mind anytime?
I miss you"
or something like that
Well, that song, but only for a moment because that was the day that was the only day I missed my boyfriend since he moved.

3 Doors Down: Away From The Sun: the reasons I can't explain
and for some reason 1000Words: It reminded me of something that I can't explain
*sheesh, I need to work on explaining things eh?*

:laugh: that's the cutest thing i've heard in a while
i reckon it's more often that not true :)

for me, there are countless of songs and i can't come up with a list from the top of my head...but i know one though - "Jerk" by Kim Stockwood. Makes you get over the guy quicker if you sing it with enough conviction :p

Bodies (Drowning Pool) - Teaches about anger and violence and fills me with determination. (God knows why a song by a dead man boosts my survival instincs.) :confused: I agree with Crazy the Clown about Step Up, to a lesser degree.

Sober / Schism (Tool) - Schism gives me chills. It reminds me of how one can numb oneself, to coldly fight impossible battles. Sober... it's got the best beat I've ever heard--all you rap fans out there, listen to this beat, even though it's rock. It gives you this sense of impending doom.

The Sword Of Doubt (FF9 soundtrack) - It reminds me (oddly enough) of a fight you cannot win, but you fight anyhow. One of the few FF9 tracks that I really like.

Invincible (Static-X) - Eerily reminiscent of my life, especially the past year or so. Assures me that I will always survive; that no matter how tough things get, I will endure.


Evanescence - Hello (this song made me nearly cry once, since it's so sad. It's about Amy Lee's deceased sister)Are you perhaps thinking of "My Immortal"? I'm pretty sure Hello was about insanity, though maybe I'm interpreting it wrong... Haven't heard either song in a while.

My Immortal was probably more open to interpretation than Hello.

Hello was related to her sister, by the lyrics "...She's not breathing..." Trust me, Rye would know Evanescence more than anyone. :-) I still think My Immortal was a sadder song though.

I never could pin down the exact meanings of either song, though up until now I thought I was close. Not to doubt you, Rye, but everybody mixes up a song title now and then.
