Post songs that are important to you, or have a significant meaning to you or have been a big part of your life.
Rather other people's song, and guess what they mean. You must listen to the entire song critically, and try to really understand the message.
>>24603985
I would love to analyze your song but I don't believe you posted one
since it's from the Devil and god are raging inside me I'd assume it has something to do with isolation, since that's what most of the songs on there are about
>>24604083
Oh I enjoy that album but I wouldn't say any of my favorite songs are on it. Its still good though.
If you really want me to post mine...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUlsTuG39O0
I have a few more if you like these and wanted to hear them...
Mine is Fur Immer by Sabaton as a cover. I dont like the original
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8JKMuIbrWk
I was doing chemo during the last 2 year of highscholl, and despite that I never droped and I didnt loose any years.I Listened to this song with tear in my eyes every morning before my exams, somehow managed to not fail a single one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3VgV31vmUE
Life's not a wheel with chains made of steel, your will to go on does make the difference.
>>24604285
I have a really hard time feeling connected with songs that are in different languages. Feels really impersonal to me.
I'm sorry, I wish I could say something more ; ;
>>24604322
I'm normally not into dad rock but this was a good song!
>>24604685
there was subtitles you know? watch the video
>>24604201
It seems like your dealing with problems with a lack of belonging, perhaps with also with a lack of direction/purpose
you're in good company here
>>24604285
have you recently lost a friendship of some sort? possibly irreversibly, to put it lightly
>>24604722
Oh I know there were, but translations are never quite perfect, and that idea kind of ruins it for me.
>>24604735
Yes, she married another man. Our friendship ended horribly...
>>24604750
Still worth hearing what you took away from it please?
>>24603985
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtAhcNm17Y0
https://youtu.be/7vZwq7wfw_M
>She says nothing seems the same
>And I can't feel a thing
>My body's like a wave
>Breaking to the sea
I cry literally every time I hear this verse.
>>24604735
The Earl Sweatshirt song is basically my life. My dad has not been in my life since I was about 12. He has done horrible things to our family and I'm supposed to hate him but I still miss him and he's been basically my only real best friend in my whole life.
>It's probably been twelve years since my father left, left me fatherless
>And I just used to say I hate him in dishonest jest
>When honestly I miss this nigga, like when I was six
>And every time I got the chance to say it I would swallow it
I was blown away at how hard this hit me when I first heard the song.
Also the rest of the song about not quite feeling like you fit in with any group of people hit me hard too. I went to a private all boy high school, and as atransperson I never really felt like I belonged and I was made fun of for being "gay" a lot and it was just really hard finding people to connect with.
I now have a pretty bad prescription drug problem which is what the second song was about.
Okay I'm done blogging, sorry.

This isn't a sad song. There's no hidden meaning behind this song.
I just like it and for some reason hearing it makes me happy.
It makes me think of good times from my past.
Something to cheer you up ahead

Grab some whiskey and get that rough night on smooth sailing.
I discovered Modest Mouse my last year of High School, their first three albums still fuck me up to this day. This is the one song that made me realize I love them more than any other band:
https://youtu.be/9vxqPVQ8aiA
>>24605570
With a bottle of jack.
>>24605390
i think this is either about a fear of intimacy or about someone who has an extremely low self esteem.
but that's just my opinion desu senpai
>>24604931
I wish I could give good advice to you
I'm well acquainted with lonliness and rejection, as well as addiction
I've tried numerous times to bury myself in self serving philosophies in order to give credence to my own loneliness, and I'm still unable to cope with my lack of humanity
I don't know how one fixes this, the next method i'm going to attempt is powerful psychedelic drugs, so that I can attempt to analyze my life through a different lens.
>>24604916
a strong feeling of perceived feeling of hopelessness coupled with emotional trauma ( made worse by prior strong ambitions)
>>24604961
do you have difficulty relating to others and feel mixes emotions regarding the notion of a social existence, you both want it and you don't
>>24605029
this song doesn't leave much to the imagination
>>24605052
existential crisis coupled with alienation
>>24605125
you feel stuck in a mundane routine that inflicts constant existential stress
>>24605390
conflicting ideological reasoning are causing you stress and leading to your malcontent and loneliness
organize your thoughts, consider fresh new ideas

This is a comfy thread. It's a shame that I can't for the life of me find meaning in music. I guess I'll just post a song I've enjoyed for a long time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrsYD46W1U0
Not this particular renditionthough I personally enjoy it a lot, but the 1812 overture has been among my favorite musical pieces for as long as I can remember.
It's a little edgy, but hey, we can't win them all.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbrUzJlTffs
This fucking obnoxious song played on this TTT gmod server that I actually made friends on every time you logged in. The server slowly was dying and just lost all it's legs when summer ended about 2 years back. I kinda forgot about it till now, but fuck I actually had constant daily social interaction with people who knew me. The vote to make me a mod was even unanimous. What the fuck happened?

Soundtracks from video games that I played in my childhood always put me in a certain emotional state. But none of them can do it like Ocarina of Time does.
I can't even listen to any of these in full right now, I only heard them long enough to copy the links and post them here. I'm tearing up just from hearing the beginning parts of them.
This game symbolizes a point in my life that was far more innocent, far more genuine, truthful and meaningful. It was a time when I still felt some optimism for myself and for the world, for the future. It was a time when I felt some sort of actual happiness, something I haven't felt since 2001.
I wish I had died that year. August, 2001, a few days after my birthday. Everything after that has been a slow decline filled with misery, disappointment and broken dreams.

So, uhm, yeah, what's up guys?
>>24608703
For me personally, I can't find any meaning in it, and it's just something I use to deal with SPD. And it's not really a waste of time given that you can listen to it and do other things at the same time.
>>24608727
I don't get it...?
not original
>>24608769
If you're listening to it while doing something else then why not listen to a podcast or an audio book instead?
>>24608150
that's what the game is about after all
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NE7MpzyfGkc
pretty poignant for me and a lot of people here, id presume. getting older and further away from people you thought you were going to be with forever, and having to look back and realise that fact.
>>24608789
do you have no appreciation for aesthetics?
>>24608789
Neither of those produce enough noise to deal with my SPD. Most of my music listening time is either when I'm driving or sleeping. And, honestly, there are very, very, very few podcasts or audio books I'm interested in. Basically everything I read is technical information, which doesn't really mesh well with the audio book format.
>>24608803
It is. It's almost like a meta commentary about my life. How darkly and ironically poetic.
>>24608866
Sorry, I didn't know what SPD was before right now. I suppose you're a special case in which music actually serves a purpose.

Dadcore, but I remember hearing it right after my parents got divorced. When I told my dad I wanted to live with my whore of a mom because she needed the help, he told me he lost all respect for me. Till this day as a failed normie, I realize that I don't respect myself.
>>24604981
I had never seen the translation before, but I always thought it was about moving forward regardless of how shitty or ridiculous life gets. After seeing it I think it's a lot more about how the values of being a sincere person all the time is frowned upon, but that level of idealism will end up hurting yourself in the end.
>>24609065
I listen to comedy podcasts, so not for "acquisition of useless knowledge". I can't really speak for audio books as I don't listen to them but I imagine they would be far more entertaining than music.

>>24609120
You don't just listen to the same music on repeat for hours on end, you listen to new shit, gauge it, if you like the sound, you listen to the lyrics, then eventually you try to sing along with it. Then do it all again. There's so much music you just refresh yourself. I started during 40 minute commutes to uni, listened to a new album each day. You get a lot of duds but there's a satisfaction from something that hits your specific spots.
>>24609196

I just love this song because it sounds nice and it reminds me of the good ole days I had playing video games with my brother 24/7. We used to play this game all the time together.

You know you're gold, you don't gotta worry none
Oasis child, born and so wild
Don't I know you better than the rest

But she loved being stupid, she died in a car crash with some drunks.
>>24610563
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J67nkzoJ_2M
that's some really solid chiptune. reminds me of the FF6 soundtrack. I feel like sometimes they did more with the limitations back then than modern sound producers do, really trying to capture the essences of a level or what they wanted you to feel while doing something. Halo did a pretty good job with that, but after that EVERYBODY wanted some epic choir and orchestral shit with their games. Marty O' Donnell started a trend and nobody did it as good as him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPEWTSJqUmI
Honestly, feel like a lot of games are like this these days. Too busy sticking their own heads up their asses to be concerned with how they really feel with their product. I know it's part nostalgia, and partly the verdict of history (you only see the good stuff, not the really shitty stuff), but I feel like the pickings have been slimmer and slimmer post-Millennium. As the industry becomes more monolithic, there's less incentive to diversify.

She thinks that I was born yesterday
She thinks that I go out with the tide and fade at the end of the day
She thinks my hair's ain't numbered and when pricked I won't cry in pain
Just 'cause I smile like a child born yesterday
And she thinks that I was born in another age
She thinks that I get up with the sun and dream my life away
And she thinks, 'cause I'm saying nothing, that I've got nothing to say
Just 'cause I smile like a child born yesterday
Born yesterday, born yesterday, born yesterday
Born yesterday, born yesterday
And she thinks that I was born yesterday
She thinks that I came into this world born without a name
And she thinks that I'm going nowhere 'cause I stay at one place
And 'cause I smile like a child born yesterdayAlso the album cover is pretty badass
>>24610872
>nobody did it as good as him.
That's because Donnell knew how to capture the atmosphere of the level and put it into music. He didn't do it because choir music is badass, but because it would fit into the game the way he implemented it.
The music is one reason why I still remember my first seconds playing the starting level of Halo 3. It really goes without saying what a masterpiece Halo is without including the including the game play. Heck, even the main menu of Halo 3 almost makes me cry.
Thanks for reminding me of the game.
>>24610926
I know it sounds stupid but those first three games really defined an era of my life. Maybe it's why i'm so dysfunctional now. But it saddens me to see what's happened to it. I miss all my XBL friends from Halo 2. They were real friendships to me, even if we all faded away.

This cover always makes me feel sad for some reason.
Never listened to the album.

Listen to it and keep in mind, that my brother went to jail when he robbed a bank to get money, when we desperately needed it to keep our house. He was 21 when he did it. He had a good job, a girlfriend and a save future and sacrificed everything.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjPyvoLXPs4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAF8D0ugyVk
Actually, there has never been a song I could really relate to, but when I heard this one, I actually teared up a little. Even now, when I think about it, it's perfectly explaining how I subconsciously feel.
Like, fuck, my life is just a passive existence. Everything is happening, but me. The world is spinning, but I'm not there, participating in any of it, I'm just the passive observer and I have been just that all my life. So often, I've tried to rationalize my decisions, trying to come up with excuses like that I am not interested or that I don't want to spend my days doing pointless things like partying, drinking, talking to other people who don't share the same topics and interests, but deep inside, I feel like I'm regretting it. Regretting my life and my passive behaviour.
And to me, that's what this song represents. I'm here, but I'm not really here. Things are happening, but they're not really.
Fuck my life.

beach Boys seem so out of place in 2015, it's sad in my opinion. That sort of innocent, sensitive love is dead as far as I can tell.
I take it as what it's really supposed to mean, the guy's talking to himself.
