Since its close to the new year(ish) I thought i would come up with a thread that allows us to sum up the year. A good way to do this (i thought) was to find a particular song that has summed up the year for you personally. So everyone find a song that fits them, post the lyrics here and tells us why it fits you. This could be quite interesting.
My last relationship played a pretty big part in at least the first half of the year, the song that best sums up that time for me is For the Girl by The Fratellis. The song is more or less completely accurate.
La la la la la la........
Well she said I know but I just cant tell
Everything you've just been saying
Lucy was there aswell in the dark
The kids in the band were playing
No-one can hear a word I tell
What the girl was singing
See she mustav been 16 or 18
Im just past caring
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was bursting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
You not supposed to be easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just dont miss
And she said "I can't love you anymore than this!"
La la la la la la la...............
La la la la la la la...............
Aww she said she said no no no no
Let me yes why don't you kill me
He asked him why you messed up right there
Sweetheart you know that don't thrill me
Said I wouldav been there for if you had been a little bit nicer
I was dead by Sunday half dead scared just trying to please her
She getting the pills when
I was into her best friend
She was chasing the thrills
And living down at the West End
she was pretty in braces
I lived out of her window
She said take me to London
Tell me something I don't know
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don't miss
And she said "I can't love you anymore than this!"
La la la la la.....
La la la la la.....
La la la la la.....
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was bursting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
You not supposed to be easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don't miss
And she said I don't like you
You can't stand me
I can't love you anymore than this
hahaha

and you cant catch me....

because Im worth it
lp
There`s a place i`ve never been,
A place I`d long to be
Will I reach,I just dont know
Still I hope, one day I`ll go
My wish just never seem to come
I know for certain you`re the one
So close I get, still no cigar
Carrying my wounded heart
I cant stop the rivers from running
I cant stop the rain from falling down on me
I know I`m not what you want
I`m hoping in time you`ll see
How my soul pleads for you
Not everytime you meet someone and you both just click in a minute
Maybe it`s the eye contact
Smile like that
Click, click and you`re on it
I cant stop calling you
I dont know what to do
Baby you`re making me break down all of my rules
Now I cant believe you put a spell on me
Oh nothing`s the way it seems I cant keep you out of my dreams
I get chills baby when I cant talk to you
I`m in pain and I hope you feel the way I do
I know for certain you`re the one baby
So close and no cigar
I carry this, my wounded heart, so close but yet so far.
Written by Johnson and Roachie.
It`s not been a good year. :cry:
Don't you think that maybe I should slow down?
I've got so many things to say
I had to write 'em down
I was feeling alone
So I'm on the phone to you
Now that you're here
I hope that you're hearing all the words I say to you
I've talked myself round, you can talk to me too
You can talk to me
Anytime that you feel the pain
I'll take the strain (You can talk to)
You can talk to me
Anytime I can help you out
Give me a shout
You can talk to me
Oh yeah
Don't you think that maybe I should calm down?
I'm sick of staring at these walls, I'm gonna kick 'em down
I was feeling alone, getting cold
And I feel like a natural born killer
Boring holes and cheap polyfiller
And I borrowed 50 dollars to ring you
To tell you, everything is alright
You can talk to me
Anytime that you feel the pain
I'll take the strain (You can talk to)
You can talk to me
Anytime I can help you out
Give me a shout
Losing Touch With My Mind (Kember/Pierce)
I’m losing, losing touch with my mind
I’m fallin’, fallin’ way behind
I’m walkin’ down a one-way street
I’m tryin’, tryin’ to find my feet
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright, alright, alright
I’m movin’, but I’m goin’ no place
I’m thinkin’, but my mind’s in space
I’m hopin’, hopin’ to find my aim
I’m aimin’, but I don’t take the blame
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright, alright, alright
I’m shootin’, shootin’ off my gun
It’s too bad now babe, but it’s a lot of fun
I’m livin’ like you’d like to live
But I’m wantin’ babe what you’ve got to give
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright, alright, alright, alright
Rollercoaster (Hall/Erikson)
Well I met someone some time ago
His eyes were clear to see
He showed me things in my own mind
That I wish all the world could see
He stopped me from living so insane
I can be just what I wanna be
Things appear as they really are
I can see just what I want to see
Well come on, and let it happen to you
Well come on, and let it happen to you
You gotta open up your mind and let everything come through
Well it starts like a rollercoaster ride
So real it takes your breath away
It slides you through your point of view
You look back to where you thought you’d stay
When your ride changes you
Exactly like a neon ray
You don’t have to search for words anymore
There’s nothing you need to say
Well come on, and let it happen to you
Well come on, and let it happen to you
You gotta open up your mind and let everything come through
After your trip, life opens up
You start doing what you wanna do
You find out that the world that you once feared
Gets what it has from you
No-one can ever hurt you
Because now you know more than you thought you knew
You’re looking at the world with brand new eyes
And no-one can ever spoil the view
Well come on, and let it happen to you
Hey, hey, hey well come on, you gotta let it happen to you
You gotta open up your mind and let everything come through
Just open up your mind
And let everything come through
