    Default Artists you can relate to

    Are their any artists who you can relate to? I mean, when you hear a song and listen to the lyrics and you think "Damm, thats how Im feeling right now!" or "Ive been there!"

    For me it has to be P!nk. Ive always been a fan of hers, but my mum told me to listen to one of her latest songs. The song is "Who Knew" and its about the death of a friendship P!nk had. But the verses reminded my mum of my relationship and even though its about the death of a friendship, to me and her, it sounds like the death of my relationship.

    And ever
    Who knew

    If someone said three years from now
    You'd be long gone
    I'd stand up and punch them out
    Cause they're all wrong and
    That last kiss
    I'll cherish
    Until we meet again
    And time makes
    It harder
    I wish I could remember
    But I keep
    Your memory
    You visit me in my sleep
    My darling
    Who knew
    My darling
    My darling
    Who knew
    My darling
    I miss you
    My darling
    Who knew
    Who knew
    Im not making this thread because if todays incident, but because since I heard it about a month ago, its jyst stuck with me. Are there any artists or just songs that relate to you or events in your life?

    As simple as this song is, it completely sums up the way my life is going right now.

    I've been playing the part of a lost realist

    My indepednce is turning the page
    Tomorrow comes we start to fade
    My independence only complicates
    It's not enough to meet half way

    I relate with New Found Glory on a musical level.

    I'd have to say Paul Simon, only without all the talent and musical skill.

    Especially this song:

    "Flowers Never Bend with the Rainfall"

    Through the corridors of sleep
    Past the shadows dark and deep
    My mind dances and leaps in confusion.
    I don't know what is real,
    I can't touch what I feel
    And I hide behind the shield of my illusion.

    So I'll continue to continue to pretend
    My life will never end,
    And flowers never bend
    With the rainfall.

    The mirror on my wall
    Casts an image dark and small
    But I'm not sure at all it's my reflection.
    I am blinded by the light
    Of God and truth and right
    And I wander in the night without direction.

    So I'll continue to continue to pretend
    My life will never end,
    And flowers never bend
    With the rainfall.

    It's no matter if you're born
    To play the King or pawn
    For the line is thinly drawn 'tween joy and sorrow,
    So my fantasy
    Becomes reality,
    And I must be what I must be and face tomorrow.

    So I'll continue to continue to pretend
    My life will never end,
    And flowers never bend
    With the rainfall.

    Luv Sic pt. 3 - Nujabes
    It's funny how the music put times in perspective
    Add a soundtrack to your life and perfect it
    Whenever you are feeling blue keep walking and we can get far
    Wherever you are
    Like a movie that you can't predict
    Like a book that you can't resist
    I sing along a song that's oh so sensual
    bring along a sip to make it all so sexual
    verbally that is, making love to the music means vibing to the beat at night
    with the whole city fast asleep, out cold
    true words seem to rise to the lips, take hold
    of a poet in me, most powerfully
    I feel free when the world doesn't owe it to me
    It's so hard to find a gig that lives up to the billing,
    trying to find a reason to work, god willing
    I admit, my thinking is wishful
    like a star upon a child gazing up to the ceiling
    how far do we have to stretch the truth
    to fit the lifestyles borrowed and overdue
    we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's break it all down into pieces of bright
    moments that pass by like a meteorite
    throw on your favorite reel that's good to go
    on the analog player watch the people glow
    sit back to the breeze let the memories flow
    comedy tragedy all the highs and lows
    Like your moves that I can't predict
    Like your look that I can't resist
    The ting-a-ling feeling was oh so mutual
    the lingering appeal was so unusual
    herbally what is, medicine to a lone soul can become poison to some
    with the whole body fast asleep, out cold
    true vision seem to come to the eye, take hold
    of a prophet in me most visibly
    I see clear when the world doesn't show it to me
    It's so hard to make sense in a cycle of billing,
    trying to find a reason to quit and make a killing
    I admit, our dealing is painful
    like a star upon a child staring down from the ceiling
    how far do we have to stretch the picture
    before pixelating the human texture
    we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's save it all up for an ultimate prize
    homecoming gathering with a big surprise
    throw on your favorite record that's good to go
    on the analog table and it's hooked to blow
    sit back with ease and hear the emcee flow
    hi hat kick drum all the highs and lows
    Um, third time's the charm, hopefully
    when I chime on your door you'd still let me in
    after all these years
    the room that you caved in my heart is exactly the same as you left it
    I realize that you have moved on
    new styles and cliques like them silent flicks
    I'm speechless in this golden occasion
    the beautiful expression on the silver creation
    this time I'd like to keep in touch
    I'm a little bit wiser, a whole lot tougher
    if I suffer through another nightmare tonight,
    we'll chalk it up as another chapter to write, all right?
    or wrong or somewhere down the middle of the road
    I wanna see you again in a scene with the backdrop a perfect ten
    and the music can take us back to the spot right then
    from black and white to a sepia ton
    some dreams come with a tint or in monochrom
    from black and white to my skin tone
    some dreams have a stint on the microphone
    okay we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's break it all down into pieces of bright
    moments that pass by like a meteorite
    throw on your favorite jacket and you're good to roll
    on the analog trail and you look the role
    just stroll through the trees and let your miseries go
    sunshine hurricane all the highs and lows
    we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's break it all down into pieces of bright
    moments that pass by like a meteorite

    Yuki Kajiura is <3

    Fiction
    I'm living with false hope, and my eyes
    just wanna see a ray of light
    I'm gonna find it in my fairy tale

    I hear, long forgotten broken toys
    tell'n me ancient tales of a boy
    I will sing of them in my fairy tale

    I was just a silent girl
    always dreaming of a little angel
    close to my reality
    sing, la la la la, la la la, la la la

    The midnight sun hangs in the sky
    show me your smile, my little angel
    hear me, my fantasy
    sing la la la..... through the night

    See, how my flights of imagination
    help me discover comprehension
    I can find it in my fairy tale

    I know, only a man can dare to dream
    nothing is really as it seems
    keep on telling, your own fairy tale

    Now wake up, my silent girl
    take to flight, like a foolish angel
    sing me your fantasy
    sing, la, la la la, la la la, la la la

    My midnight sun hangs in the sky
    the first and last wondrous invention
    show me the horizon
    sing, la, la la la, la la la, la la la

    The summer is here, we kiss and fall in love
    but we've got to go, leaving nothing here
    I wanna share the memories of long forgotten love

    I was just a silent girl
    wishing for better understanding
    this is my melody
    sing, la, la la la, la la la, la la la

    My midnight sun hangs in the sky
    help me to tell my history
    with painted scenery
    sing, la, la la la, la la la, la la la

    In my fairy tale
    I'm living in my fairy tale...

    In general, the boy least likely to, the whole album theme of not wanting to grow up, of being scared of things... the cute animals and stuff

    "I see spiders when I close my eyes"

    "Insects flutter up against my window, I don't like the way they look at me"

    "I'm happy because I'm stupid, scared of spiders, scared of flying"

    and stuff like that.

    Also a couple of get cape. wear cape. fly's songs, one that's just kinda about the grind of life and working and getting away from it all, which I think most people can relate to, and one about just being down and saying hey, it's okay and stuff. I like sam

    Most of Radiohead's lyrics are incomprehensible messes, but No Surprises and Let Down are two songs whose meanings are clear and easy to relate to.

    It's hard, at times, for me to say I can relate to much music, because so many of the artists I listen to make wonderful music, but their lyrics are so impossible to understand that I just gave up trying to find meaning in most of them, and just sit back and enjoy the way they sound rather than trying to decipher whatever awkward metaphors they're trying to use.

    Understanding what has
    Happened before us
    We are confined to a
    Darkened hidden tomb
    The conquering of our world
    As we knew it
    Rise above this pit
    Of sorrow and pain
    Among the few
    We are the avant leaders
    We've got to live
    Through this trouble and decay

    This question haunts my mind
    Will we survive this night?
    We're harboring the meek
    Will we survive the sleep?

    Unsure and scared
    We are planning our reprise
    Revolves around this world
    We don't know anymore
    The odds against us
    Yet we're stronger and prevailing
    Learn from mistakes
    Counting souls for sale

    This question haunts my mind
    Will we survive this night?
    We're harboring the meek
    Will we survive the sleep?
    i can think of lots of songs i like parts of the lyrics........... i listen to instrumental stuff............

    Im not talking about lyrics you like, otherwise loads of people would have posted random lyrics. Im talking about a song or even just a line from a song that relates to you. You dont have to like the song or lyric, just that you relate to it.

    I like keane very much becuase they always sing smth that relates to me! ^^ It's like I wanted to write what they say but they wrote it first!
    I'll just choose three things...

    First of all - Is it any wonder

    Quote Originally Posted by Keane

    It’s so long, that now I think I was wrong

    But sometimes
    I get the feeling that I'm
    Stranded in the wrong time
    Secondly - Crystall Ball

    Quote Originally Posted by Keane

    Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
    Mirror, mirror on the wall
    Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
    I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
    So put me where I belong
    And third - Broken toy (even though my favourite is Atlantic I think that I don't feel lonely right now, but I still love that song and 'bedshape' from Hopes and Fears and Broken toy makes me feel sad about a guys who made me hate him!

    Quote Originally Posted by keane

    Were in your shoes
    I would be kind

    Who says the river can't leave its waters?
    Who says you walk in a line?
    Who says the city change its borders?
    Who says you're mine?

    I guess I'm a record you're tired of
    I guess we're just older now
    I guess I'm a toy that is broken
    I guess we're just older now
