What's your theme song?

djeffreys10 · June 2014

And why that song? It could be a song that inspires you. Or maybe it's that one song that you swear could have been written about you. Or whatever reason that song stands out as being your theme.

For me, I would have to say Lee Brice - When the Whiskey Used to Burn.

I don't really do feelings, emotions, etc. very well. I have been called emotionally unavailable, and I couldn't argue that description. I call myself a Vulcan (if you watch Star Trek). I have been described as Sheldon Cooper. It works for me. And then one day, I noticed what I think was a grey whisker (I pulled it out lol). Then not long after that, I heard this song on the radio for the first time. Hit me right in the feels.

So anyway, what's yours?

Natasha Bedingfield - Unwritten

Edited because I missed part of the assignment...but, I think it's fairly obvious...my future is still unwritten. I can't pick one song that says "This is who I am." because I'm evolving every day into the perfect version of me.

No back stories?

Just added mine. Cause I'm an idiot. Actually...is that a song? "Cause I'm an Idiot"? Cause that would DEFINITELY be my theme song!

I can't think of one...maybe I should make one up?

"Runaway Train" lyrics

SOUL ASYLUM

"Runaway Train"

Call you up in the middle of the night
like a firefly without a light
you were there like a blowtorch burning
i was a key that could use a little turning
so tired that i couldn't even sleep
so many secrets i couldn't keep
promised myself i wouldn't weep
one more promise i couldn't keep

it seems no one can help me now
i'm in too deep
there's no way out
this time i have really lead myself astray

runaway train, never goin' back
wrong way on a one-way track
seems like i should be getting somewhere
somehow i'm neither here nor there

can you help me remember how to smile?
make it somehow all seem worthwhile
how on earth did i get so jaded?
life's mysteries seem so faded
i can go where noone else can go
i know what no one else knows
here i am just drownin' in the rain
with a ticket for a runaway train

and everything seems cut and dry
day and night
earth and sky
somehow i just don't believe it

runaway train, never goin' back
wrong way on a one-way track
seems like i should be getting somewhere
somehow i'm neither here nor there

bought a ticket for a runaway train
like a madman laughing at the rain
little out of touch, little insane
it's just easier than dealing with the pain

runaway train, never goin' back
wrong way on a one-way track
seems like i should be getting somewhere
somehow i'm neither here nor there

runaway train, never comin' back
runaway train, tearin' up the track
runaway train, burnin' in my veins
i run away but it always seems the same

Back story: Read the lyrics....self explainatory ????

Come on Eileen-Dexy's Midnight Runners. It doesn't really tell the story of my life or anything...I just love it so much. It's my jam. I love the line "At this moment, you mean everything" I think that it speaks to the temporary mindset we tend to have about love and relationships in general. *shrugs*

Billy Cobham: Quadrant 4

This insanely uptempo fusion of swing, rock, and jazz is the tune I can't sit still for. Tommy Bolen on guitar and he rips through the speakers and grabs my gut and uses me as a whammy bar. Billy Cobham's drumming (are 32nd beats possible?) is so manic and crisp, I don't think it has an equal. Recorded in 1972 with Jan Hammer and some other fusion luminaries, it never grows old for me.
