Favorite songs

My life definatley has a soundtrack... almost everywhere i go i have music playing. at home, iTunes is pumpin, laying in bed, my iHome is pumping, in the car-iPod, when i dont have my iPod, my phone has iTunes so it doubles as an MP3 player.

So yeah, music plays a big role in my life, even when im in class theres usually a song on my mind... sadly, im untalented and dont create music, but i freakin love listening to it.

So yeah, new thread idea... the "Music" section of this website needs more popularity... so what are your favorite songs? favorite artists? why are they your favorite? what memories do they stir up?

I guess i'll start... i am a HUGE indie guy... anything acoustic i am probably gonna love, i prefer almost every acoustic version of any rock song.

my favorite song at the moment is probably "Strawberry Wine" by Ryan Adams. It tells a great story and chills down my spine, love it.

So yeah, hopefully this thread will take off... if not, then you all suck!

music is the one thing which pours out of ones soul and heart and lungs into the hearts of others, but also from inside their hearts to them at the same time.
not sure if that made sense or not but meh...

Sure, that makes sense to me, cal823. Also, the favorite "songs" that one likes don't necessarily have to be those that have words to them. The term "song" or "songs" can have a different meaning for some of us. Sometimes the definition between what a "song" or "piece" is can be blurred and lack true definition in the conventional sense of what they might be defined by using a dictionary.

I love music so much sometimes it hurts a little...Perhaps if it were a teddy I'd squeeze it so hard it's eyes would pop out. There’s an image for you.

At the moment I am absolutely loving Bad Religion. I think they are going to be my new obsession, which is going to be costly as they have back catalogue as long as my arm.

I'm at the tail end of an Alkaline Trio obsession, mostly running dry as I own all the songs now Well I'm happy but I want more... I wish they'd get off their backsides and do some touring though *grumble*

I have to put a vote in for Fleetwood Mac. They are my chill out music.

Cal can't you get into the over 18 gig with an adult? I used to do that to get into gigs (my poor mum) when I was 14, or are they more strict down there? It's actually really annoying they do that- the only reason is the bars and to make extra money.

I'm into good melodies. Badfinger is my current favorite. Lyrics can be as immortal as the melody. If the melody is in a minor key and the lyrics are sad, I'll probably like it. Grunge falls into this category often. Some of my very favorite music people and groups are: Elton John, Rush, Sound Garden,The Guess Who, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Greig, Vivaldi (incredible in bed), Bread, The Carpenters, Lobo, Cat Stevens, Brian Adams, Aerosmith, Ozzy Osbourne, Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Queen and Muse...

Okay. Now, you are hitting on some of the areas in music that might be in my sort of area, at least in the classical as well as the oldie pop scene!

Is this thread only about songs that have words to them? The terms "song" or "piece" these days are often interchangeable concerning their definitions.

Hey Nicki,

Your mention of the Dolly Parton song, made me think. Have you ever heard a song called "Dear Me" by Lorrie Morgan Good song!

Anything musical really, i just relate better to music with great lyrics to portray my mood and whatever else... its great to find a song where the artist is singing about something that i can relate to directly.

However, i do like a great melody, or "piece" as you put it... i adore "Sleep Walk" by Santo & Johnny Farina... im pretty sure thats a fifty's song, but it just makes me feel good listening to it.
