Hi

Whenever I listen to Arctic Monkeys Flourescent Adolescent it reminds me of, well me!

Especially when it goes "you used to get it in your fishnets, now you only get it in your nightdress"

:rotfl:

And I do remember when I used to be a rascal :angel:
 
Gal always sings Arctic Monkeys 'Mardy bum' To me :moon:
 
Well a foo fighters besotted fan, 'the pretender' speaks volumes too me about how I felt about me abusive ex bf.

'What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say that I'll never surrender?'


I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
 
reminds me of me and my relationship with my dad

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid
 
Its weird how some songs you can really relate to. I have sad ones too that remind me of stuff.

The first line of Nirvanas "Serve the servants" just about sums me up...

"Teenage angst has paid off well, now I'm bored and old"

:doh:

This song reminds me of myself and my kids. I suffered really bad post natal depressin after both births but my kids helped soooo much.

Whenever this song is on I sing it loudly to the kids and they both used to dance along with me!! My daughter is 6 now and gets embarrassed but my son still dances!! makes me happy and sad at the same time this song!!

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
'Lord I just don't care'
But you got the love I need
To see me through

Sometimes it seems
The going is just too rough
And things go wrong
No matter what I do
Now and then I feel
Like life is just too much
But you got the love
I need to see me through

When food is gone
You are my daily meal
When friends are gone I know
My saviour's love is real
Your love is real

You got the love (repeat 5x)

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you got the love I need
To see me through

Time after time
I say oh Lord whats the use
Time after time
I say this just won't do, but
Sooner or later in life the things you love you lose,
Just like before i know i'll call on you

Occasionally
My thoughts are brave and friends are few
Occasionally
I cry out Lord what must I do
Occasionally
I call up Master make me new
You got the love
I need to see me through

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you got the love I need
To see me through

Oh it gets so rough somtimes
Oh the going gets so hard
But I know
You got the love (repeat 3x)

Lord I could use some time to keep it together
But I know you got it
You got the love
I need to see me through
(see me through)
You got the love
mmhmm
 
reminds me of me and my ex the kids dad :(
one republic apologize
I'm holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
I'm hearin what you say but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say...

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'd take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it's nothin new
I loved you with a fire red-
Now it's turning blue, and you say...
"Sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid...

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

Bridge (guitar/piano)

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
It's too late to apologize, yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah-
I'm holdin on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground

i love the song too
 
Sad but great songs girls...

I sing shudduppa ya face to Isaac. And sometimes I really mean it too but singing it is my way of telling him to shh if I'm busy without getting cross lol

When I was little and we used to go on holiday to spain the bars used to play that song "brown girl in the ring" and I always used to think I was that girl!

Never quite unstood the line "she looks like a sugar in a plum, plum plum"

What was all that about ? :?
