The search engine is closed, so I don't remember if this topic has come up... but...

Is there a song that made u go, "Yeah! This song is just what I needed!" Did it make u feel good, or sad (like crying), or just describe everything u're feeling... whether happy or sad.

4 example: Even tho the artist is a scum bag, I loved the song, "I Believe I Can Fly", the message, the strength, the emotional build up of the song... yeah, like that.

Here's more:

"I'll Stand By You" by the Pretenders (beautiful song...wonderful relationship song)
"Tears In Heaven" by Eric Clapton (loss of a child...oh, what a song)
"The Real Thing" by Kenny Loggins (reminds me of when my wife and I separated, very sad on our daughter)
"Somewhere" by Barbra Streisand (a missing someone song)
"Fast Car" by Tracy Chapman (desperation, no future...bad relationship...mmm, mmm, mmm)
"It Ain't Over Til It's Over" by Lenny Kravitz (another break up song with hope)
"Butterfly Kisses" (don't know the artist, but it's another one that reminds me of my little girl, who's not so little anymore)
"Beautiful Boy" by John Lennon (I've got 2 boys...'nuff said)

"Emotion" by Samantha Sang (1978)

"It's over and done,but the heartache lives on inside
And who is the one you're clinging to instead of me tonight?"

Mary's Prayer - Danny Wilson.

Heroes - David Bowie.

"Belle" by Al Green.

The song where he finally chooses to change his way of living. He used to be a ladies man but in this song he says he's gonna put that behind him. The line

"I could never go so far cause it's him no matter who you are. Belle! It's you I want but it's him that I need"

says it all. very emotional. after that he has only released religious albums.

and also

"I don't think much about her no more" by Mickey Newbury for any break up.

A "few" more for now...

Bjork - Joga
Bjork - Pagan Poetry
Silverchair - Emotion Sickness
Everything But The Girl - Good Cop Bad Cop
Henry Ate - Eudaimonia
Henry Ate - Just
Sting - A Thousand Years
Sting - When We Dance
Sting - Ghost Story
Eurythmics - Don't Ask Me Why
Eurythmics - You Have Placed a Chill in My Heart
Soul Asylum - Runaway Train
Skunk Anansie - Hedonism
The Cranberries – No Need To Argue
Prince - Solo
Sade – Pearls
Madonna – In This Life
Madonna – Oh Father
Madonna – To Have and Not To Hold
Just Jinger – Shallow Waters
Kylie Minogue - Take Me With You
The Cure - Pictures of You
The Cure - To Wish Impossible Things
Plumb – Damaged
Ani Difranco - Done Wrong
Ani Difranco - Pulse
Ani Difranco - Wish I May (I could go on and on with Ani)
"The End of the Affair" theme!

And too many more...

Most of the above I guess reflect more of the painful types of emotions... but if I started on the songs that provoke or embrace other kinds of emotions, I really wouldn't stop.. so I'll just end it there

I love these posts melle think::

Mr Make Believe Gene Simmons
Pali Gap jimi Hendrix
It's Alright Eurythmics
