Songs?

[bascule]

While I do, for whatever reason, have a certain degree of respect for Eminem, mainly his advocacy of free speech in the face of overly anal protesters (i.e. when Elton John sings a duet with him, perhaps he isn't gay bashing because he hates gays?), I just have to say... Dr. Dre could produce for a stinking pile of poo and it would be popular...

[kree]

if someone makes a good song about why all white rappers, especially eminem, should be killed, that'll be my new fave song.

What is wrong with eminem, he is probably the only white rapper with any tallent! I agree that most if not all white rappers are one hit wonders, but when someone has multi platnum album after multi platnum album plus a multi nominated and award winning movie, I wouldn't say he should be killed. But then again that is your opinion, and we are all intitled to our own opinions!

Schaft - Cold Light

Good song, but I prefer Apoptygma Berzerk's Deep Red for the singsong quality of the chorus.

[JoeSchmuck]

Chromatic Death by S.O.D.

Dig it. How about You Suffer by Napalm Death or You Got No Legs Don't Come Crawling To Me by Lawnmower Deth (yes, there is no "a").

Anyone who knows these songs is a hard core metalhead.

However, my song, or at least the one that comes to mind right now that ranks in my top 10 is On The Turning Away by Pink Floyd

On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And the words they say
Which we won't understand
"Don't accept that what's happening
Is just a case of others' suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"

It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by a heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud

On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find are strange
And mesmerized as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
On the wings of the night

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?

Adam Yauch, Adam Horowitz and Michael Diamond ain't white, they're all jewish.

Would that include The Beastie Boys?

Schaft - Cold Light

in your cold light I make this gun my lawful wife
in your cold light I come alive with a stanley knife
in your cold light I can see right through my life
take me my maker
got the noose got the neck
if only I could break her hate her save her
if only I could break her hate her save her
from you

in your cold light I walk into tinseltown
in your cold light these sheets are lit with broken hearts
in your cold light I will soon surrender
here comes success
with your fear with your fist and a flick of the wrist

here comes a candle to light you to bed
here comes a chopper to chop off your head
here comes a candle to light you to bed
here comes a chopper to chop
chop
chop off your head

I'm coming on success
with your fear with your fist and a flick of the wrist
SURRENDER! SURRENDER! SURRENDER! SURRENDER!
SURRENDER! SURRENDER! SURRENDER!
SURRENDER!

You already have a song listed! One song does not mean, One + other songs.


NEXT!

Can I trade my original song for a new one?!

[kree]

Lyrics aren't the only reason why you associate a song with yourself. There's an emotional response that an involving piece of music imparts that goes way, way beyond just the words alone. .

I agree too. Just because a song has to do with rape or stalking dosent mean that that is what it implies. I remember in grade school we did song assosiation, where we basicly disected a song and wrote what we felt the song meant( the 60's was a good era for this, or atleast that is what we mainly focused on.). Look beyond the lyrics or deeper into them.

eww thats gross

Well, here's one of my favourites, Therapy?'s Diane. Not really much better. Does it describe me, though? Well, in that I've never raped and killed anyone, no. Does it describe me? Maybe, in that I'm a person who confronts Bad Things head-on.

Hell, if were were going for plain old descriptions I'd have to go with B-Movie's Nowhere Girl - partly for the way it sounds, partly for the lyrics, and partly because people I've known for even only very short periods of time tend to tell me they tend to associate that song with me.

Lyrics aren't the only reason why you associate a song with yourself. There's an emotional response that an involving piece of music imparts that goes way, way beyond just the words alone. If that weren't true, I could never like music such as Pachelbel's Canon, Bach's Tocatta and Fugue, or Depeche Mode's Nothing to Fear. The same applies to Diane.

Shit, one of the most vivid memories of any piece of music I have is Metallica's Nothing Else Matters played on a pipe organ as a processional hymn when I was in school.

eww thats gross

"Aqualung"

Sitting on a park bench --
eyeing ittle girls with bad intent.
Snot running down his nose --
greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.
Drying in the cold sun --
Watching as the frilly panties run.
Feeling like a dead duck --
spitting out pieces of his broken luck.

Sun streaking cold --
an old man wandering lonely.
Taking time
the only way he knows.
Leg hurting bad,
as he bends to pick a dog-end --
he goes down to the bog
and warms his feet.

Feeling alone --
the army's up the rode
salvation a la mode and
a cup of tea.
Aqualung my friend --
don't start away uneasy
you poor old sod, you see, it's only me.
Do you still remember
December's foggy freeze --
when the ice that


that describes u???
clings on to your beard is
screaming agony.
And you snatch your rattling last breaths
with deep-sea-diver sounds,
and the flowers bloom like
madness in the spring.

that describes you?

[TheCotMan]

It is old, but due to control issues I still have not resolved, it seems to still be true:

God money, I'll do anything for you
God money, just tell me what you want me to
God money, nail me up against the wall
God money, don't want everything, he wants it all
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take that away from me
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take it
No, you can't take that away from me
Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die than give you control
Head like a hole
Black as your soul
I'd rather die than give you control
....

But that is the point isn't it? Security is about not giving up control.

Easy enough...

Pantera Walk

Can’t you see I’m easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I’ve got more friends like you
What do I do?

(pre) is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I’ve been
Belong
You can’t be something you’re not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

(chorus) respect, walk

Run your mouth when I’m not around
It’s easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

(pre)

(chorus)

Are you talking to me?
No way punk
