I wanted to do this to share my passion for music and also give a little insight into what songs mean a lot to me and also how music has shaped my life.
I will apologise now as I can foresee that this is going to be a very chatty post about how I interpret the songs but it will definitely show my passion for music!
So without further ado, here we go...
Nirvana - Heart-Shaped Box (214 plays)
This is the only Nirvana song I actually enjoy listening too, this is a song that my Dad always listened to so therefore it holds a lot of fond memories for me.
My favourite line from this song is "Forever in debt to your priceless advice".
I just feel like it is a line that anyone can relate to, whether its advice from family members or from friends and whether or not you decide to take their advise is besides the point. I feel that advice from someone you care about is definitely something that you cannot put a price against, and I think can sometimes be the best advice you are given in life.
The best piece of advice I have been given so far in life is "always live for yourself and not others", this piece of advice was given to me by a family member a few years ago during a time where I was young and was doing things to please my family because I thought it was what they wanted me to do, but now that I am slightly older I have realised that what I did was wrong and I should have followed my dreams for me and no one else, because at the end of the day its me that has to live my life and deal with the mistakes which I have made.
So to sum it up, this song means a lot to me advice wise and just general memories from my childhood, its not a song you can really sing along to or anything but it just makes me happy listening to it.
Train - Drops of Jupiter (186 plays)
The first time I heard this song it was actually a cover by someone on YouTube, I fell in love with it straight away with its quirky but some what random lyrics.
It straight away took me back to a time during my teenage years when I heard the line "And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there" as I went through a tough time when I was about 15/16 and kind of took a step back in my life to try and find out who I was again. The line "are you lonely looking for yourself out there" also takes me back to this time, because yes it was a very lonely time for me, I was going through so much that I felt like I had no one that I could talk to about my problems.
This is a song that I love blasting out when I'm in the car by myself and can have a good wee sing song, as it just cheers me up by reminding me how far I have come in life.
I have decided to leave this post here as it was starting to get very long but I will include a list of some of my other most played songs.
Carrie Underwood - All-American Girl
Eminem & Rihanna - Love The Way You Lie
The Script - Breakeven
Lady Antebellum - Need You Now
Taylor Swift - Sparks Fly
Joshua Radin - I'd Rather Be With You
The Script - For The First Time
Let me know if you enjoy any of these songs as well :-)
