#5. Significant songs of the last 2 years


So i was listening to a load of songs the other day and every single song that happened to pop up was just awesome and i realised that these songs had played a massive part of the last two years, some of you may know that im a musician, therefore i understand music differently to those who arent musicians, i think music speaks, it says all the things i cant and so much more.

well, what ive done is compiled a list of the songs that have made my last two years, it was going to be year but then i realised i started listening to these songs about 2 years ago, so thats why its two years.

here we go, each song has a little explanation. click each song title for a youtube vid.

Sorry, you're not a winner - Enter Shikari
i started listening to this song around about the very first time i started going to wired (march 08(alternative night at a club in margate)), i discovered it at wired and it soon became part of my list of most favorite songs, its signifcant because going to wired helped me get over a break up, thats weird but its the truth, it got me out and meeting new people.

Diary of Jane - Breaking Benjamin
this song is related to the first person who i met after my breakup in 2008, although he never had any time for me which is why this relates to this song, it made me realise that i would meet someone new and i was capable of "pulling" i thought this would never happen, just like every girl does when they split up with someone.

Dont Stop - Innerpartysystem
I guess this song is significant because its like a driving song for me and over the last two years whenever something goes wrong i drive, driving gives me something else to think about, i crank it up as loud as possible and just listen to all the sounds and it makes me think of good times.

Dressed for friend requests - Drop Dead, Gorgeous
ive had the album this song is from on repeat for pretty much forever, brings out the emo in me! nah, it kinda sums up the anger ive felt at certain occasions.

Twisted Transistor - Korn
this is weird cos maybe you might think ive taken this abit far, it just sums up how i feel about music becuase even if no one else gets me, theres always a song to listen to that seems to totally understands me, abit emo but oh well - this song is so significant to me im even considering having " A lonely life where no one understands you, but dont give up becuase the music do" tattoo'd on me, its just very applicable to my life.

I dont care - Fall out boy
now im not usually a fan but this is just so true, cos i dont care what you think as long as your thinking about me, like any publicity is good publicity if i was famous kinda thing.

Under the sheets - Ellie Goulding
see if you can work this out, anyone who knows me well might get this.

A plot to bomb the pan handle - A Day to remember
This is just an all round great song to listen to when people piss you off or you get angry or hurt "ive learnt to let go".... great line, we should do that more often.

Everybodies free (to wear sunscreen) - baz lurhman
I heard this one day when i was in my works van travelling back to my work office shortly after my breakup in 08, it made me cry becuase it made so much sense to me, i had heard it many times before but all of a sudden it just made sense, to this day when i hear it, it makes me cry, i dont know why, it makes me spine tingle. its just so right.

I never wanted - As I Lay Dying
This is the song i can currently relate to the most, ive just been listening to it alot and i guess it makes sense to what i can relate it to.

Snuff - Slipknot
Probably the most significant song of the last 2 years for me for sure, i went through an extremely tough situation and this song just had everything i needed to say packed into one little tune of sadness, anger, love, betrayal, happiness, just all emotions in one song. This song is related to one small person but the situation was huge and probably the toughest thing ive ever had to do in my life.....ever. I will write about this "situation" you will have to look out for it. it will feature this song.

hope you enjoy my selection.xxxxxxxxxxx
