Being [insert username here]: songs about us!

Post by perfectblue »

Uh oh. The title might be asking for trouble, but I'm curious...

I think we all can relate to much of EC's sentiment, but is there any one song that so closely describes your current experience that Elvis had to have stolen the idea from you? (Back to the Future stylee, of course!)

I'll get back to you on mine. Go!

Blue Chair!

But seriously, I think a song like "Deep Dark Truthful Mirror" may not be about me directly, but I can identify with the whole concept of having to look within yourself to find out who you really are, for better or for worse. Cause most people that are close to you are not going to be brutally honest.

When I was a mere slip of a lad I was taken aback by Mystery Dance - that was exactly how I felt!

Of course, I've figured out the steps since then :wink:

Although it's a very short song :oops:

At this moment it would be 'My Little Blue Window'.

"All Grown Up".

And you don't care anymore...

That was my teen angst anthem. I bet EC didn't know he could write emo...

i suppose......it´d be: RIOT ACT

.........Riot act - you can read me the riot act
You can make me a matter of fact
Or a villain in a million
A slip of the tongue is gonna keep me civilian...........
...the promise of indulgence in my confidential voice approached inmortal danger but you´ll never know how close....

Beyond Belief.... especially the bit about girls in bars...

next time any of us see him, we should run up to him, grab him by the shoulders and crumple to the floor in front of him wailing ''how do you know my pain?''......or we could just get embarassed and wish we'd done that.

Just About Glad for me too

It only took my little finger to blow you away.
