I have found a song that describes me and how I look at things sometime...It is on the new Rascal Flatts CD...1st track--the song "Stand"....
What song describes you?? .......(I think we have done this before but I couldn't find it.. )

Happiness is knowing where you come from...
Who you are...
And why you are here.....
The song that describes you...
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call
Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall
You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam
And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen
Most of 'em dreams, most of 'em dreams
Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late
The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder
I'm an over-forty victim of fate
Arriving too late, arriving too late
I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass
I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I got stop wishin', got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
Mother, mother ocean
After all these years I've found
My occupational hazard being
My occupation's just not around
I feel like I've drowned
Gonna head uptown.....jimmy buffett.

Tull usually hits the mark:
My first and last time with you and we had some fun.
Went walking through the trees, yeah! And then I kissed you once.
Oh I want to see you soon but I wonder how.
It was a new day yesterday but it's an old day now.
Spent a long time looking for a game to play.
My luck should be so bad now to turn out this way.
Oh I had to leave today just when I thought I'd found you.

The song that describes you...
Modern Woman - Billy Joel
You see her sitting with her coffee and her paper
With her high top sneakers of italian design
With a long cool stare she aggravates the tension
Makes up her face while she makes up her mind
Now you're in trouble, maybe she's an intellectual
What if she figures out you're not very smart
Or maybe she's the quiet type who's into heavy metal
Boy, you got to get it settled
Cause she's breaking your heart
Don't try to put on an act
You can't do that to a modern woman
And you're an old fashioned man
She understands the things you're doin'
She's a modern woman
She looks sleek and she seems so professional
She's got a lot of confidence, it's easy to see
You want to make a move
But you feel so inferior
Cause under that exterior
Is someone who's free
She's got style and she's got her own money
So she's not another honey you can quickly disarm
She's got the eyes that make you realize
She won't be hypnotized by your usual charm
You've got your plan of attack
That won't attract the modern woman
Whe you're an old fashioned man
She understands the things you're doin'
She's a modern woman
Time goes by and you're sharing an apartment
She says she loves you but she doesn't know why
In the morning she leaves you with your coffee and your paper
It's a strange situation for an old fashioned guy
But times have changed
Things are not the same, baby
You overcame such a bad attitude
Rock and roll just used to be for kicks
And nowadays it's politics
And after 1986 what else could be new
You got to learn to relax
And face the facts of modern woman
And you're an old fashioned man
She understands the things you're doin'
She's a modern woman
You see her sitting with her coffee and her paper
With her high top sneakers of italian design
With a long cool stare she aggravates the tension
Makes up her face while she makes up her mind
Now you're in trouble, maybe she's an intellectual
What if she figures out you're not very smart
Or maybe she's the quiet type who's into heavy metal

The song that describes you...
Same songwriter, similar resonance:
I'm no great looker, I'm no fast shakes, I'll give you a steady push on a six knot simmering high tide.
I can hold us down, keep our head to the wind or let us roll on the broadside, cold spray flying in,
and we'll ride on the swell and our hearts are alive.
Let me make you my seal driver.
I could captain you if you'd crew for me, follow white flecked spindrift, float on a moonkissed sea.
Could you fancy me as a pirate bold, or a longship Viking warrior with the old gods on his side?
Well I'm an inshore man and I'm nobody's hero, but I'll make you tight for a windy night and a dark ride.
Let me take you in hand and bring you alive.
Going to make you my seal driver.

STAIND LYRICS
"It's Been A While"
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As ****ed up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and ****ed things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that **** seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As ****ed up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and ****ed things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day!
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember
As ****ed up as it all may seem to be I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry

Are you sure that's pre-sobriety? The lyrics refer to getting self-respect back.

Ive come a long way in learning to love myself since those days. I guess the song is an overall reminder for me, it always grabs me when I hear it.

It's a great song. I have several friends who relate to it very strongly.

The song that describes you...
maybe this is the one...
Billy Joel - You're only Human
You’re having a hard time and lately you don’t feel so good
You’re getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood
It’s alright, it’s alright
Sometimes that’s what it takes
You’re only human, you’re allowed to make your share of mistakes
You better believe there will be times in your life
When you’ll be feeling like a stumbling fool
So take it from me you’ll learn more from your accidents
Than anything that you could ever learn at school
Don’t forget your second wind
Sooner of later you’ll get your second wind
It’s not always easy to be living in this world of pain
You’re gonna be crashing into stone walls again and again
It’s alright, it’s alright
Though you feel your heart break
You’re only human, you’re gonna have to deal with heartache
Just like a boxer in a title fight
You got to walk in that ring all alone
You’re not the only one who’s made mistakes
But they’re the only thing that you can truly call your own
Don’t forget your second wind
Wait in that corner until that breeze blows in
You’ve been keeping to yourself these days
Cause you’re thinking everything’s gone wrong
Sometimes you just want to lay down and die
That emotion can be so strong
But hold on
Till that old second wind comes along
You probably don’t want to hear advice from someone else
But I wouldn’t be telling you if I hadn’t been there myself
It’s alright, it’s alright
Sometimes that’s all it takes
We’re only human
We’re supposed to make mistakes
But I survived all those long lonely days
When it seemed I did not have a friend
Cause all I needed was a little faith
So I could catch my breath and face the world again
Don’t forget your second wind
Sooner or later you’ll feel that momentum kick in
Don’t forget your second wind
Sooner or later you’ll feel that momentum kick in

I've been told that Metallica's The Outlaw Torn is me by several people. They may have a point.
The Outlaw Torn
You know I wait my whole lifetime for you
I ride the dirt I ride the tide for you
I search the outside search inside for you
To take back what you left me
I know I'll always burn to be
No one seeks so I may find
And now I wait my whole lifetime
My whole lifetime
So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
So on I wait my whole lifetime for you
The more I search the more my need for you
The more I blast the more I bleed for you
You make me smash the clock and feel
I'd rather die behind the wheel
Time was never on my side
So on I wait my whole lifetime
My whole lifetime
And I'm torn
And if I close my mind in fear
Please pry it open
And if my face becomes sincere
Beware
And when I start to come undone
Stitch me together
And when you see me stretched remind me of what left this

I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last

I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I got stop wishin', got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
Mother, mother ocean
After all these years I've found
My occupational hazard being
My occupation's just not around
I feel like I've drowned
Gonna head uptown.....jimmy buffett.
Yup. That's your song alright.

Young women remember that I'm still right in my prime, I take my time,
So don't be a sad regretter, you could do much better, why waste all your time and your allure?
Why not find yourself a man who's more mature?
You know what to do, just smile and say oooh, and I'll carry through. It could even be you.

And young men don't know what I know, too fast when I'm slow, they just come and go.
Don't fall for all that noise and all that bluster, all that rush of blood, that soon will pass.
I have more than they will ever muster, why confuse mere energy with class?
Young women remember that I'm still right in my prime, I take my time,
So don't be a sad regretter, you could do much better, why waste all your time and your allure?
Why not find yourself a man who's more mature?
You know what to do, just smile and say oooh, and I'll carry through. It could even be you.
Thank God we communicate by typing here, because I just bit my tongue clean off. :yh_rotfl
[FONT=Arial Black]I hope you cherish this sweet way of life, and I hope you know that it comes with a price.

Bullet's trial was a farce. Can I get an AMEN?????
We won't be punished for our sins, but BY them.

The song that describes you...
"Stand"
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright
[Chorus:]
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand, Then you stand
Life's like a novel
With the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon
With only one way down
Take what you're given before its gone
Start holding on, keep holding on
[Repeat Chorus]
Everytime you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place
Ooohhh
[Repeat Chorus]

Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot - Sting
When you’re down and they’re counting
When your secrets all found out
When your troubles take to mounting
When the map you have leads you to doubt
When there’s no information
and the compass turns to nowhere that you know well
Let your soul be your pilot
let your soul guide you
he’ll guide you well
When the doctors failed to heal you
when no medicine chest can make you well
When no counsel leads to comfort
when there are no more lies they can tell
No more useless information
And the compass spins
the compass spins between heaven and hell
Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
he’ll guide you well
And your eyes turn towards the window pane
to the lights upon the hill
the distance seems so strange to you now
the dark room seems so still
Let your pain be my sorrow
let your tears be my tears too
let your courage be my model
that the north you find will be true
When there’s no more useless information
And the compass turns to nowhere
that you know well
Let your soul be your pilot
let your soul guide you
let your soul guide you
let your soul guide you
guide your way

Hope it's okay just to jump in here...
Btw, I'm not a 'juvenile' (well, except in spirit sometimes :wah: ) but the rest fits.
Vienna by Billy Joel
Slow down you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart tell me why
Are you still so afraid?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You got so much to do and only
So many hours in a day
But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you
Slow down you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight (tonight)
Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself
That you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right(you're right)
You got your passion you got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you
Slow down you crazy child
Take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize...
Vienna waits for you.
And you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
Why don't you realize...Vienna waits for you
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you

Bez wrote: I've sure been 'rockin' today....Status quo, Queen, Dire Straits...the lot...We need something obscure, then. This impressed me so much when I was at school that it's still stuck in my head. Bill Oddie had well over a hundred of his songs broadcast in the 60s and I listened to most of them doing my homework. It's strange, the things that have lasting influence. Surprisingly, Google doesn't know of it yet.
She's gone, she's gone, she's gone, she's gone...
She was just sixteen, she was tall and lean, she was as ugly as can be
But I'm ugly too so she had to do, she was the only girl for me
Well the poets find that love is blind but alas it isn't true
Cause in the still of the night I shake with fright when I remember you
Oh yes my baby's gone and I ought to be sad but to tell you the truth I'm really glad
Cause I was sick of the sight of her plain old face and now she's gone to a much much better place
One day for my tea she gave to me my favourite meal of fish
And strange to relate she met her fate struck down by her own fair dish
With a bone in her throat she was mortally smote and she died on the kitchen floor
And it seemed to me she'd never been so beautiful before

Chantilly Lace - Rolling Stones
Hello, baaaaby!
Yeah, this is the Big Bopper speakin'
Ha ha ha ha ha! Oh, you sweet thing!
Do I what? Will I what?
Oh baby, you knoooow what I like!
Chantilly Lace had a pretty face and a ponytail hangin' down
A wiggle in her walk and a giggle in her talk
Make the world go 'round
Ain't nothing in the world like a big eyed girl
To make me act so funny, make me spend my money
Make me feel real loose like a long necked goose
Like a--oh baby, that's a-what I like!
What's that, baby?
But... but... but... oh, honey!
Oh baby, you know what I like!

EASY ONE:D
Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees and begged you
Not to leave because I'd go beserk?
WELL,
You left me anyhow and
Then the days got worse and worse
And now you see I've gone completely
out of my mind
AND
(chorus 1):
They're coming to take me away,
Haha, they're coming to take me away,
Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha,
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see
Those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me AWAY,
HA HAAAA
You thought it was a joke,
and so you LAUGHED, YOU LAUGHED!
When I had said that losing you
Would make me flip my lid,
RIGHT?
You know you laughed.
I HEARD you laugh, you laughed
And laughed and laughed
And then you left,
But now you know I'm utterly mad
AND
(chorus 2):
They're coming to take me away,
Haha, they're coming to take me away,
Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha,
To the happy home with trees and flowers
And chirping birds and basket weavers
Who sit and smile and
Twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they're coming to take me away,
HAHAAAAAAAAA
I cooked your food,
I cleaned your house,
And this is how you pay me back
For all my kind unselfish loving deeds
HUH?
Well, you just wait,
They'll find you yet,
And when they do, they'll put you in
the ASPCA, you mangy MUTT,
AND
(chorus 1)
(chorus 2)
(chorus 1 trailing into mumbles in the distance) ....... JUST LIKE ME:D

[QUOTE]"California Girls"
Well east coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I’m down there
The mid-west farmer’s daughters really make you feel alright
And the northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night
I wish they all could be california
I wish they all could be california
I wish they all could be california girls
The west coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a french bikini on hawaii island
Dolls by a palm tree in the sand
I been all around this great big world
And I seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but I couldn’t wait to get back in the states
Back to the cutest girls in the world

After much consideration, I gotta go with Shania:
"Juanita"
Juanita She is the restless river
running through my veins
She rides without the reins--
her name's Juanita
She lives in the heart of every
woman in the world
Within the reach of every girl
who wants to meet her
(She's gonna be ridin' through)
Her name's Juanita
(She's gonna be ridiin' free) She's ridin' free
(She's gonna be inside of you, gonna be
inside of me) She's inside of you
and inside of me, yeah
[Chorus:]
Oh, go with her--flow with her
Dream with her--scream with her
Let her take over, or just get to know her
Be everything you can be
If you can find her and free her
Juanita will unchain your heart
When someone tries to take
away the freedom of your choice
To take away your voice--
that's when you need her
She's there if you dare to give
your broken wings a try
C'mon and take a leap and fly,
and you can be her
(She's gonna be ridin' through) Oh, Juanita
(She's gonna be ridin' free) Ridin' free
(She's gonna be a part of you, gonna be a
part of me) She's a part of you and a part
of me, yeah
[Repeat Chorus]

Oh, go with her--flow with her

When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh oh
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - uh huh
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
Ooh ooh ah ah
Ooh ooh ah ah
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unravelling fast it's true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear how about you
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened
It finally happened - oh yes
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Just very slightly mad
And there you have it
hahahahaha ...... not really .... just more stupid I guess ........ I was gonna put ... but then I would have to change my title to Queen Terry ....... RIP the wonderful Freddie, you are much missed and this is a truly superb song:-6
When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh oh
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - uh huh
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
Ooh ooh ah ah
Ooh ooh ah ah
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unravelling fast it's true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear how about you
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened
It finally happened - oh yes
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad
Just very slightly mad
And there you have it
The song that describes you...
The Kinks, would you believe it, from their "Muswell Hillbillies" album which spoke volumes to my generation ...
This is the age of machinery, a mechanical nightmare,
The wonderful world of technology, napalm, hydrogen bombs, biological warfare.
This is the twentieth century but too much aggravation,
It's the age of insanity, what has become of the green pleasant fields of Jerusalem?
Ain't got no ambition, I'm just disillusioned.
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't wanna be here.
My mama says she can't understand me, she can't see my motivation. Just give me some security,
I'm a paranoid schizoid product of the twentieth century.
You keep all your smart modern writers, Give me William Shakespeare,
You keep all your smart modern painters, I'll take Rembrandt, Titian, Da Vinci and Gainsborough.
Girl we gotta get out of here, we gotta find a solution,
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't want to die here.
I was born in a welfare state, ruled by bureaucracy, controlled by civil servants and people dressed in grey.
Got no privacy, got no liberty, 'cos the twentieth century people took it all away from me.
Don't wanna get myself shot down by some trigger happy policeman, gotta keep a hold on my sanity,
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't wanna die here.

Nullius in verba ... ☎||||||||||| ... To Fate I sue, of other means bereft, the only refuge for the wretched left.
When flower power came along I stood for Human Rights, marched around for peace and freedom, had some nooky every night - we took it serious.
Who has a spare two minutes to play in this month's FG Trivia game! ... My other OS is Slackware.

Indeed I would. The Kinks are my favourite band, despite Ray and Dave being misguidedly Arsenal supporters (really should support another North London team ) I do so love them. Waterloo Sunset is my anthem, perhaps because I was Born at Waterloo and it also has my name in the lyrics, despite never finding my Julie :-1 I must be a few years younger than you, but although I also love Muswell Hillbillies, my fave is "Arthur" the original Soap Opeta before The Who's Tommy (Pete will confirm that) followed by "Village Green". If you have not yet bought the three CD reissue of "Village Green", you really must.

No seriously, it depends what kind of mood I'm in and where I am in life I suppose!
Isn't there a stones song called "Tatoo you!", that might apply! :wah:

When youre weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
Im on your side. when times get rough
And friends just cant be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
When youre down and out,
When youre on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
Ill take your part.
When darkness comes
And pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
Im sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

Perfect !!!
Mine has gotta be the French song by Carla Bruni on her great 2002 CD "Quelqu'un m'a dit". It's called "I'm Excessive"
Je suis excessive
Je n'ai pas d'excuse,
C'est inexplicable,
Même inexorable,
C'est pas pour l'extase, c'est que l'existence,
Sans un peu d'extrême, est inacceptable,
Je suis excessive,
J'aime quand ça désaxe,
Quand tout accélère,
Moi je reste relaxe
Je suis excessive,
Quand tout explose,
Quand la vie s'exhibe,
C'est une transe exquise
etc... ahhh
No excuse, no excuse...

The song that describes you...
I decided that the "she" should be a "he"
Somebody
I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me
I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone who'll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I'm asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it

The song that describes you...
Jimmy Buffett's tune from Coconut Telegraph.
Tells it like it is
Im Growing Older, But Not Up.
I rounded first never thought of the worst
As I studied the shortstop's position
Then crack went my leg like the shell of an egg
Someone call a decent physician
I'm no Pete Rose, I can't pretend
While my mind is quite flexible
these brittle bones don't bend
Chorus
I'm growing older but not up
My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
So let the winds of change blow over my head
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead
Sometimes I see me as an old manatee
Heading south as the waters grow colder
He tries to steer clear of the hum drum so near
It cuts prop scars deep in his shoulders
That's how it flows right to the end
His body's still flexible but that
Barnacle brain don't bend
Chorus
So now don't get me wrong
This is not a sad song
Just events that I have happened to witness
And time takes it's toll as we head for the poll
As the days grow more complicated the night life still wins
Chorus
Let the winds of change blow over my head
I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead
