    For me, my dad left me when I was born so these songs always make me think:

    Good Charlotte - Emotionless
    Good Charlotte - The Story Of My Old Man
    The Ataris - The Saddest Song
    Starsailor - Alcoholic

    finger eleven- walking in my shoes
    evanesence- everybody's fool
    the who- behind blue eyes
    linkin park- crawling
    billy talent- nothing to lose
    a perfect circle- the noose

    Everybody's Fool isn't a soft song.. ;)

    The most recent song that has hit me pretty hard would be On Distant Shores by Five Iron Frenzy. The bridge of the song just basically summed up what I was like, and what I needed to change. As well, the way Reese Roper sang brought out the desperation of the lyrics in the bridge. If anyone wants to look at the lyrics, click the below link:

    Five Iron Frenzy - On Distant Shores

    Opeth - Harvest
    Opeth - To Bid You Farewell
    : Two hauntingly beautiful songs
    Tool - Third Eye: Puts me into some sort of trance, only Tool can do that!
    Dream Theater - Learning to Live: A song that makes you reflect on reality and motivates you. And its a feel-good song too!

    Evanescence - Forgive Me

    Reason: Every couple has their song, and after me and my girlfriend broke up, I discovered this song, and made her download it. Even though we're not dating, we're very close, and this is *our* song.

    Metallica - Fade To Black

    Reason: First Metallica song I ever heard.

    Slipknot - Spit It Out

    Reason: The first 'Metal' song I ever heard. Got me into alot of the bands I'm into these days.

    There are alot of songs out there that change how i feel at certain times. But if i were to choosea song, i would choose "Creep" from Radiohead. It makes me think about all the situations i have with myself and others i had during my highschool years. How i usually felt was reflected through this song. I can't help singing with this song. For me it mixes sadness and anger all into one.

    Crawling - LP
    ... for having to fight my confidence and tense through life

    Pushing Me Away - LP
    ... for having to be the 'second-important-person' in everything

    Sleep Alone/Lonely Day - Electric Soft Parade/Phantom Planet
    ...for not being with someone

    Athenaeum - All My Life
    ... for not getting the rythm right whenever i'm playing it on drums!... damn! how to figure it out?...

    - all LP songs just represents that damn tension days of mine! 'coz i'm so damn fragile!!.. duh

    I wish some decent band would do a remake of that country song "One Last Time" by Dusty Drake that was a tribute for 9-11. It's about this guy calling his wife from the plane to say one last goodbye. Aww. :(
