i almost killed myself listening to "twilight" by elliott smith. that was a bad year.
terrible thing to say, but an excellent choice. love the song.
"Last time I think we played that song here was like, a long time ago, and there was a bonfire in the back and people were like throwing each other into it...very exciting days but a huge fucking relief that that's not how it is tonight..." Ed Irvine Night 1 2003, after Deep
though i have to admit i had an incident a couple of weeks ago and indifference was playing.
Cate, surely Indifference is about facing up and triumphing over pressures. You know, 'this life is doing it's best to piss me off but I aint having it, I'll take what it throws and become stronger ' type of message, or isn't it? Actually I find strength in what others may call depressing music, if a song is really beautifully executed then I find it uplifting, whatever the message on the face of it.
But like I just said, take the beauty of the pain in the song and absorb it. Let it bring strength to you and with it the urge to go on and absorb even more, rather than...!

well jamie, i was in a black mood. at such times no music is gonna make me stop what im doing. it was perhaps more about fortuitous timing than anything else.
and yeah you're right a depressing song can be uplifting.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

I hear you, and in black moods I often play solemn music, but like I said I find it so beatiful at times that I just wanna hear it again, hear more, suck it all up. Never surrender to negativity, it's a pissing bastard and doesn't deserve to be nurtured, but morphed into stronger thoughts and will.

well yes sucking it up can be good but sometimes.....
hear my name

anyhoo, to stay on topic, something by TOOL maybe?
I'll give up on this one, cos the more I think about it, the more I think "I could never end it all after hearing that, it's just too excellent and I wanna hear it or something else excellent again". But as far as moving and moody soundtracks go, there's an instrumental called Orion, on Metallicas Master of Puppets that could maybe be my choice.

Right I'll forget trying to be nice to you in future! But that is from a different era of Metallica to what we think of these days, they had the coolest bass player in the world, James had a flying V,... and they had skate boards,..baseball caps,.... and they had killer songs, no flab on that album or any before it. No poncey ear rings or eye liner, no bullshit, just the freshest, greatest new band in the world at that time. Then 5 years later came this other lot.....

oh darlin' you just totally blew it. i despise flying Vs. tis got to be gretschs or rickenbackers or i just don't care.
oh no jamie, i'll let you lick my icecream if you be nice to me.

Well I'm not big on them now, tis, rather was my adolescent years of which I wax. I don't give two hoots what guitar somebody plays these days, as long as it gets me. Mind I still like a nice baseball cap, even though it's not a real sport,...thay have nice hats-what can you do? And you've got icecream? Or are you just onto that eyebrow comment I left you with last night??ha!
Everyone should listen to True Love or Last Hour..amazing lyric True love is a rose behind glass
It's locked and kept closed
Maybe just to me
My heart's been attacked
Shattered by tough love, bad love
I bought mine off the street
True love, man, just can't be beat
I felt so complete
Married to heavenly bodies above
And each night I look up
At a bright honeymoon
Because it sure seemed built to last
Even after my honeymoon past
I kept right on at midnight
Like a ghost
To the house it once haunted
And day after day
I'd steal with my true love away
To some hideout we left undisturbed
We could do what we wanted
But I started to feel like a liar
Saying I love you
She was madly in love or mad at me
There was no in-between
It come on and on
I found I can't make a stand
I'm her hired hand
I have to do harm
One day I got sick
She played me a nasty old trick
Said, "I need cigarettes"
Walked around the block
Caught a cab
Stayed gone for too long
My love had gotten too strong
Just to try to getting back on my own
I had to go to rehab
All I need is a safe place to bleed
Is this where it's at?
Half of no chance
Steps in a dance
Your life's just a combat
Now I'm the king of the ward
Because I'm good and I swallow my sword
Puke it up for the doctor to write
A new prescription
Tranquil as a dove
People that have lost their true love
All seem to fit the same description
I feel cold, useless and old
Wish I was no one
Take me home, my love
Take me home today
Take me out of this place
Take me home with you today
And as for "Loser"....well, there's just no more appropriate tune for anyone who would go the route of suicide.
The blue is excelent, well done. And as for Loser, it's a great song I love it, now as for that other album I got from him with the green cover, can't think what it's called, now that was crap and is really capable of making anyone croc themselves.
i guess if i was barricaded in a room and surrounded by speakers pumping out non stop country music or dance remixes that might cause me to contemplate suicide if i didn't just die from natural causes (i get really violently i'll around country music or dance mixes) but other than that i like living to much to kill myself. how someone could choose a good song seems weird to me. i mean wouldn't that just make you wanna hear the rest of the album?
Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll ride the wave
Where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me
untitled track 8 (popplagið) by Siggy Rós... I'm not sure... but it'd be drug-induced that would last the exact time of this song... so as the build up of the song would be going, when he changes the pitch of his voice, the drug would just make me act all crazy, and I would just be overdosing at that point... so when the final buzzing of the guitar is at the end... I'd be on the ground, and it'd be the sound of my non-beating heart.
OK I would be listening to like Neil Diamond or maybe Elton John's most recent rendition of some song he DID not write for someone he knew but then said that he wrote for them....(like Princess Diana..who sorry but why is she like in the same calibur as Mother Theresa?????????????) which would drive me to that.................
Because life is not that bad,........I know this is a "hypothetical thread question".........but if even one of you, whom I don't know but I still would feel awful if I didn't say this after I thought it..........
There is never one thing in your life that will not become the past if you let it. There was a nine year old boy in my son's class a couple years ago who moved out of state and his mom found him, hung, in his room so after that I really had a strange scary feeling inside about the whole thing. I told my son that everything in life can get better no matter how awful it might seem at the moment, and yes, when I was a teenager, I also thought that life was so awful that I would be better off ............you know. But even now,after all of this time, and being old as hell.......I still feel that life can always hold hope.
Sorry that I got so involved here, maybe overreacted a bit, but I just had to write that in case anyone here was thinking about it seriously..........
Baby, You Wouldn't Last a Minute on The Creek......
Together we will float like angels.........
In the moment that you left the room, the album started skipping, goodbye to beauty shared with the ones that you love.........
Dumb Ass question but whenever I hear this song if I'm about to get the chair I'd lke to hear.....Metallica's...."FADE TO BLACK".....
Metallica - Ride the lightning
Fade To Black
Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things are not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filing me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now He's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it to late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death Greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye......
Peace
Yeah, this would probably be the one.

This version would be worthy of being the last song you ever hear...

Pretty self-explanatory and that would sum it all up.

or Sid Vicious.
then when I slip into the darkness and reach Hell, I can sing it with them.
that was another one that was in contention back in the day... amazing song.
