What's a truely meaningful song to you?

[Axver]

Wow, I forgot about this thread. Um, oops?

Just out of curiousity, nothing nasty Axver, have you ever gotten really "into" a song that wasn't by U2?

Yes, actually, I have. History Never Repeats by Split Enz means a lot to me, Pink Floyd has made some amazing stuff, there's a couple of songs by Crowded House and The Feelers that I'm really into (Right now, most notably they are Mean To Me by the former and Weapons Of War by the latter), I'm known to put Money For Nothing by Dire Straits (On The Night EP live version) on repeat frequently, I think Metallica's The Unforgiven II is one of the best songs ever made, and I'm really starting to like REM's Drive. That's only scratching the surface, too.

I'm also really into Your Blue Room by The Passengers! (That's a JOKE, people, because The Passengers = U2 + Brian Eno)

If you like the song "history never repeats", have you seen/heard the version Neil and Tim Finn did in concert with Eddy Vedder. It's on a concert DVD.

"November Rain" by Guns N' Roses is top on my list
Also, "My Immortal" by Evanescence, "Runaway Train" by Soul Asylum, "I Miss You" by Blink-182, "The Scientist" by Coldplay (can't listen to it without bawling), "Betty Davis Eyes" by Bonnie Tyler, "Old and Wise" by the Alan Parsons project, "Glycerine" by Bush, "Miss You Love" by Silverchair is a biggie, "Only Happy When It Rains" by Garbage, "The End of the World" by Skeeter Davis, "Take A Bow" by Madonna is huge for me, "Suicide Is Painless" by the Manic Street Preachers, "I Would Do Anything For Love" by Meatloaf, "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" by Oasis, "Better Man" by Pearl Jam, "Don't Let Me Get Me" by Pink, "Blurry" by Puddle of Mudd, "Creep" by Radiohead, and "Still Frame" by Trapt

Yes, they *ALL* mean something to me.

Right now, I'd have to say the most meaningful song to me is "Tell Me" by Corey Hart. It's my and my boyfriend's song.

This song has no words in it, just extremely sad, moving, beautiful music and sound. My favourite song is:

A Window to the Past

from the Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban movie soundtrack.
