Its easy to have a favorite song, I do, Pearl Jam - Daughter, but it doesn't move me, its still my favorite song though, but theres Our Lady Peace songs that really move me in the sense they make me feel something inside of me I dont mean that cheesily but theres definatley something there when I hear them, Ive had it with other songs too, some make me want to dance, and others make me...I dunno, its an undescribable ffeling, but its definatley good.

Have you ever felt this? What too?
no matter where you go,
there you are.

    I know exactly what you're talking about. Most of these songs for me are Led Zeppelin songs. No song makes me want to dance like The Ocean. Also, I don't know what it is, but Ten Years Gone just gets to me every single time I hear it. Its just plain beautiful.

    In rock world I would say 'sin city' by AC/DC , also 'another town' by Steve Earle. There s also a song by a British folk artist called Dick Gaughan, called 'outlaws and dreamers'.
