Personal Theme Song

txdoc · 10-30-2012, 03:04 PM

What is your personal theme song? How has it changed over the years? What theme song would you attribute to your significant other and why?

I don't have a significant other at the moment, but this is me all the way.

Dance-with-me · 10-30-2012, 03:41 PM

This. This became the theme song for my life when it first came out, and now at this point in my life it's still absolutely this song -- "It's a hard enough life to be living, why walk when you can fly." Beautiful, simple, powerful song.

This was mine for years, but it doesn't fit me anymore

As I get older and feel comfortable in my own skin, I'm ready to settle down and settle in.

genghisfawn · 10-30-2012, 07:10 PM

The overall tenor of my theme song never changes... upbeat but in a minor key, some nonsense lyrics accompanied by interesting instrumentation...

A SO has never influenced "my" song.

It's *my* song for a reason!

I have way too many, and it changes way too much. But one I can say for sure is mine, would by Landslide by Stevie Nicks. Another one for me is also Welcome To My Life by Simple Plan as well. But, again, it changes a lot.

kittygrrl · 10-30-2012, 07:48 PM

I don't have one that i know of...now what would be interesting is what others (friends etc.) might feel "should be" your theme song..don't you think?..

Katniss · 10-30-2012, 08:28 PM

"Our lives are made in these small hours" and "It's the heart that really matters in the end" resonate with me deeply. It reminds me to cherish each and every "small moment" of happiness, find that happiness where and when I can, and that no matter what...be true to my heart, and treat other people with a kind, generous and loving heart.... even when, and maybe especially when, I feel they are least deserving. Because it is only through "twists and turns of fate" that we often end up where we are, and most of us are just doing the best we can with the cards we are dealt.....

I have several but this is a favorite that does me good:

Lyrics:

"Mother" by Tori Amos

Go go go go now
Out of the nest it's time
Go go go now
Circus girl without a safety net
Here here here now don't cry
You raised your hand for the assignment
Tuck those ribbons under your helmet
Be a good soldier
First my left foot then my right behind the OTHER
Pantyhose running in the cold

Mother the car is here
Somebody leave the light on
Green limosine for the redhead DANCING dancing girl
And when I dance for him
Somebody leave the light on
Just in just in case I like the dancing I can remember where I come from

I walked into your dream
And now I've forgotten how to dream my own dream
You are the CLEVER one aren't you
Brides in veils for you
We told you all of our secrets
All but one
And don't you even try
The phone has been disconnected
Dripping with blood and with time and with your advice
Poison me against the MOON

Mother the car is here
Somebody leave the light on
Black chariot for the redhead DANCING dancing girl
He's gonna change my name
Maybe you'll leave the light on
Just in just in case I like the dancing I can remember where I come from

I escape into your escape into our very favorite fearscape
It's across the sky and across my heart and I cross my legs oh my god
First my left foot then my right behind the other
Breadcrumbs lost under the snow

Oo who mother
Oo mother the car is here
Maybe maybe you'll leave the light on for the for the for the dancing girl
He's gonna change my name
Maybe you'll leave the light
Just in case I like the dancing I can remember where I come come from

Mother mother mother

DESPERADO~the Eagles

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out riding fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you've got your reasons
These things that are pleasing you
Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the things that you can't get

Desperado, oh you ain't getting any younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're driving you home
And freedom, oh freedom, well, that's just some people talking
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're losing all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late.
