Personal Theme Song

Do you ever hear a song and think that it could be your personal theme song because something about it reminds you of things and events in your life at that moment?

Here's mine:

Chris Cornell — “Preaching The End of the World"

Hello, I know there’s someone out there

Who can understand

And who’s feeling the same way as me

I’m twenty-four and I’ve got everything to live for

But I know now that it wasn’t meant to be

’cause all has been lost and all has been won

And there’s nothing left for us to save

But now I know that I don’t want to be alone today

So if you find that you’ve been feeling just the same

Call me now it’s alright

It’s just the end of the world

You need a friend in the world

’cause you can’t hide

So call and I’ll get right back

If your intentions are pure

I’m seeking a friend for the end of the world

I’ve got a photograph, I’ll send it off today

And you will see that I am perfectly sane

Not for a lifetime or forever and a day

’cause we know now that just won’t be the case

There will be no commitment and no confessions

And no little secrets to keep

No little children or houses with roses

Just the end of the world and me

’cause all has been gone and all has been done

And there’s nothing left for us to say

But we could be together as they blow it all away

And we can share in every moment as it breaks

Call me now it’s alright

It’s just the end of the world

You need a friend in the world

’cause you can’t hide

So call and I’ll get right back

If your intentions are pure

I’m seeking a friend for the end of the world

Definitely "Gonna Fly Now," the theme song from the first "Rocky."

The harshness and grandness and victioriousness of it all just conveys exactly what I want my life to be. I want to be BOLD, and STRONG, and STABLE. I want people to look to me for inspiration.

If I could have that song play every time I entered a room, that would be the shyt.

Behind Blue Eyes, recently redone by Limp Bizkit

No one knows what it's like

To be the bad man

To be the sad man

Behind blue eyes

And no one knows

What it's like to be hated

To be fated to telling only lies

[Chorus:]

But my dreams they aren't as empty

As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely

My love is vengeance

That's never free

No one knows what its like

To feel these feelings

Like i do, and i blame you!

No one bites back as hard

On their anger

None of my pain and woe

Can show through

[Chorus]

Discover l.i.m.p. say it [x4]

No one knows what its like

To be mistreated, to be defeated

Behind blue eyes

No one knows how to say

That they're sorry and don't worry

I'm not telling lies

[Chorus]

No one knows what its like

To be the bad man, to be the sad man

Behind blue eyes.

The song isnt really about me, but I have blue eyes so it fits.....I mainly just love the song, its not really my theme song or anything

I Love You Always Forever by Donna Lewis

Feels like, I'm standing in a timeless dream

Of light mists, of pale amber rose

Feels like, I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent

Touching, discovering you

Those days, of warm rains come rushing back to me

Miles of windless, summer night air

Secret moments, shared in the heat of the afternoon

Out of the stillness, soft spoken words

Chorus:

I love you, always forever

Near and far, closer together

Everywhere, I will be with you

Everyday, I will devour you

I love you, always forever

Near and far, closer together

Everywhere, I will be with you

Everyday, I will devour you

You've got, the most unbelievable

blue eyes I've ever seen

You've got, me almost melt away

As we lay there, under a blue sky

with pure white stars

Exotic sweetness, a magical time

(Chorus)

Say you'll love, love me forever

Never stop, not for whatever

Near and far and always and

everywhere and everything

Say you'll love, love me forever

Never stop, not for whatever

Near and far and always and

everywhere and everything

Say you'll love, love me forever

Never stop, not for whatever

Near and far and always and

everywhere and everything

(Chorus)

My girlfriend once told me I had the most beautiful blue eyes she had ever seen, so this song always gets me, always reminds of one of my exes.

"Clark Gable" by the Postal Service

I was waiting for a cross-town train

in the london underground when it struck me

that I've been waiting since birth to find

a love that would look and sound like a movie

so I changed my plans I rented a camera

and a van and then I called you

"I need you to pretend

that we are in love again."

And you agreed too

I want so badly to believe

that "there is truth, that love is real."

And I want life in every word

to the extent that it's absurd.

I greased the lens and framed the shot

using a friend as my stand-in.

the script it called for rain

but it was clear that day so we faked it

the marker snapped

and I yelled "quiet on the set" and then called "action!"

I kissed you in a style Clark Gable would have admired

(I thought it classic.)

I want so badly to believe

that "there is truth, that love is real."

And I want life in every word

to the extent that it's absurd.

I know you're wise beyond your years,

but do you ever get the feel

that your perfect verse is just a lie

you tell yourself to help you get by?

Smashing Pumpkins - 1979

Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time

On a live wire right up off the street

You and I should meet

Junebug skipping like a stone

With the headlights pointed at the dawn

We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues

And we don't know

Just where our bones will rest

To dust I guess

Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

Double cross the vacant and the bored

They're not sure just what we have in store

Morphine city slippin dues down to see

That we don't even care as restless as we are

We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts

And poured cement, lamented and assured

To the lights and towns below

Faster than the speed of sound

Faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope

Justine never knew the rules,

Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls

No apologies ever need be made, I know you better than you fake it

To see that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues

And we don't know just where our bones will rest

To dust I guess Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

The street heats the urgency of sound

As you can see there's no one around

"DONT LET ME GET ME"

Never win first place, I don't support the team

I can't take direction, and my socks are never clean

Teachers dated me, my parents hated me

I was always in a fight, 'cause I can't do nothin' right

Everyday I fight a war against the mirror

I can't take the person staring back at me

I'm a hazard to myself

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

LA told me, "You'll be a pop star,

All you have to change is everything you are."

Tired of being compared to damn Britney Spears

She's so pretty, that just ain't me

Doctor, doctor won't you please prescribe me somethin?

A day in the life of someone else?

'Cause I'm a hazard to myself

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

Doctor, doctor won't you please prescribe me something?

A day in the life of someone else?

Don't let me get me

Don't let me get me

I'm my own worst enemy

Its bad when you annoy yourself

So irritating

Don't wanna be my friend no more

I wanna be somebody else

I have a couple, but one that comes to mind is "Vienna" by: Billy Joel

Slow down, you crazy child

you're so ambitious for a juvenile

But then if you're so smart, tell me

Why are you still so afraid?

Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?

You'd better cool it off before you burn it out

You've got so much to do and

Only so many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told..

That you can get what you want or you get old

You're gonna kick off before you even

Get halfway through

When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you're doing fine

You can't be everything you want to be

Before your time

Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight

Tonight,...

Too bad but it's the life you lead

you're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need

Though you can see when you're wrong, you know

You can't always see when you're right. you're right

You've got your passion, you've got your pride

but don't you know that only fools are satisfied?

Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true

When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you crazy child

and take the phone off the hook and disappear for awhile

it's all right, you can afford to lose a day or two

When will you realize,..Vienna waits for you?

And you know that when the truth is told

that you can get what you want or you can just get old

You're gonna kick off before you even get half through

Why don't you realize,. Vienna waits for you

When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

I used to say that it defined my life in high school, but it applies even more now. It's crazy though. This song, the book The Perks of Being a Wallflower and the show Freaks and Geeks nail it exactly when it comes to my high school experience.

Rick, I love your choice!! :)

I'll be your secret- By: Tim James

I wanna be that guy

who can say you're mine

when were standing in the movie line

I wanna pick you out of the crowd

shout it out so loud

so everyone hears me

and I would give you the world

but if you decide

that's not what you like

if you wanna keep this quiet

then baby

I'll be your secret

if you can keep it

and ill be your friend

if you really need it

and I'll be the answer to your eyes

if you're willing to give me a try

I'll be your secret

sometimes I feel like tearing down these walls

that keep me trapped inside

I wanna take away that doubt

show them what I'm about

so they cant ignore me

and I would hold you tonite

but no no no no that's not what they like

they wanna keep us quiet

then baby

I'll be your secret

if you can keep it

and ill be your friend

if you really need

and I'll be the answer to your eyes

if you're willing to give me a try

I'll be your secret

don't let them tell you how to be

just open up your eyes and see

that you belong to me...

why should we care what people say

why should we let them stand in our way

you don't have to be afraid

I'll be your secret

if you can keep it

and I'll be your friend

just tell me you need it

and I'll be the answer to your eyes

if you're willin to give me a try

I wanna pick you out of the crowd

shout it out so loud

I wanna give you the world

and let me be the answers to your eyes

let me be your secret

I wanna give you the world

but if that's not what you like

I'll be your secret

if you can keep it...

It reminds me of when I first started dating my Ex-Boyfriend (Soon To

Be Boyfriend Again) and when he was going to come out to his Parents. I

put this song in his cd player in his car along with a rose and a picture

of me and him at Disney World hanging in the rear view mirror when he was

on his way to tell his parents who flew all the way from his home in

England. So that will always be a theme song for us.

Now my personal theme song is:

Good Like That- By: Kylie Minogue

I've never been the type who's gonna wait around

And not make a sound while others bring me down

I'm not someone who'll tell you what you wanna hear

Oh you've got to feel by keeping it real

And until now I've been patient

I've been good somehow

But anticipation's leaving me no doubt

About how it will be

When you let go of your fear and release

CHORUS:

Let's move it to the fast lane

Take a chance and love me

I'll give you all I have

I'm good like that

Baby, when you crash into me

You'll finally understand

How loving me can change all your plans

I'm good like that, I'm good like that

Don't make me have to tell you that I told you so

'Cause I will you know and it's hard to hold

I cannot do this feeling, you'll find there's double meaning

To the things I say when you walk this way

Just relax, let me take control of you, sit back

Make you see where all this goes

I'm in too bad - what u got to lose

Compared to what I'm offering you?

CHORUS

I'm good like that, I'm good like that

So take a chance and love me fast

I'll give you all-all that I have

I'm good, I'm good, I'm good like that x3

CHORUS x2

I'm good like that

I'm Jammin right now to it!! It's so Funky!!!! It Describes my personality perfectly.!! :lol:

Just a little bit of peace in my heart by Golden Earring

The rainbow hides no treasure, oh believe me it’s not true

and there ain’t no mixture, that will give you back your youth

No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold

Like there ain’t no magic word, that holds you back from getting old

I catch a branche and I break it in my hands

Like you broke my heart, oh I still can’t understand

No mysterious mixture, can heal the wound you’ve made

Only time will bring peace to me, now I just hate

Well I break up and give it all up

No nore lies, no more rainbow treasures

No more fairytales, no more games for me

It’s my life, my life, a pleasure

Just a little bit of peace in my heart

Just a little bit of happiness I will part

Just a little bit of peace in my heart

Just a little bit of happiness I will part

The time rolls by, the days go by

When will I learn to stop wondering why

Despairing I’m going down on my knees

I’m begging, I’m begging, I’m begging, oh please

Just a little bit of peace in my heart

Just a little bit of happiness I will part

Just a little bit of peace in my heart

Just a little bit of happiness I will part

Right now, it's "Something's Gotta Give" by LeAnn Rimes. I'm 30, and I thought I would be married with a couple of kids by now, but I'm still single with no man. Everything else in my life is good, but it would be nice to have a guy around to do things with, it doesn't have to be romantic.

Jenny's got a job, a cat named Jake,

31 candles on her birthday cake

Next year

Thought by now she'd have a man

Two car seats and a minivan

But it still ain't here (hey!)

She's been lookin' for Mr. Right so long

But all she's found is Mr. Wrong

That's the pitts

She's drawn a line that she won't cross

Her and time are facing off

She says something's gotta give

Something's gotta give me butterflies

Something's gotta make me feel alive

Something's gotta give me dreams at night

Something's gotta make me feel alright

I don't know where it is

But something's gotta give

Friday night she had a date

Cell phone junky a half hour late

That's the biz baby

She's riding out the twists of fate

She's had all that she can take

She says something's gotta give

I swear

There's got to be a meant to be for me out there

Somewhere someday

I'm gonna find someone, somehow, someway

Jenny's got a job, a cat named Jake,

31 candles on her birthday cake

Next year

She thought by now she'd have a man

Two car seats and a minivan

She says something's got,

Something's got,

Something's gotta give

I've come to identify with this song called "Maybe Tomorrow" by Stereophonics. I don't know why, I guess I often feel as lost as the song makes it out to be. I've come to the point where I realize, why bother? I'm sick of school, sick of work, sick of being told what to do (and now I'm !@#$%^&*]ing) Anyway:

"Maybe Tomorrow"

I've been down and

I'm wondering why

These little black clouds

Keep walking around

With me

With me

It wastes time

And I'd rather be high

Think I'll walk me outside

And buy a rainbow smile

But be free

They're all free

So maybe tomorrow

I'll find my way home

So maybe tomorrow

I'll find my way home

I look around at a beautiful life

Been the upperside of down

Been the inside of out

But we breathe

We breathe

I wanna breeze and an open mind

I wanna swim in the ocean

Wanna take my time for me

All me

So maybe tomorrow

I'll find my way home

So maybe tomorrow

I'll find my way home

So maybe tomorrow
