Music inspires every bit of my heart, so it's hard to choose. In no particular order, I'll settle for these songs:

Some day - Viktoria Tolstoy (Sweedish jazz singer)
Outsiders - Franz Ferdinand (you probably know the group)
Gekommen um zu bleiben - Wir Sind Helden (German group, the title means 'We're here to stay', the name of the group translates 'We Are Heroes')

... as usual, when people talk about music anywhere in this forum I don´t recognize 70% of the bands/singers/songs you mention...

Anyway, as soon as I read what this thread was about, I couldn´t help thinking about:

1.- Believe - K´s Choice
2.- Me - Paula Cole
3.- A Murder Of One - Counting Crows

American's Nightmare's The Sun isn't Getting Any Brighter EP... the whole thing...

The song Farwell is a pretty fair summation of my life for about a year dealing with the accidental death of my friend in a car wreck.

The link below has the lyrics, but also to the left if you scroll down a little bit is a youtube video of it's performance...

Yeah, it was an angry/sad year... fuck, I still deal with it and it's been 5 years now. Anyways welcome to "the prime years of my life."

The top two songs dropped when I was in high school, which probably says quite a bit about my state of mind in and around that period, and the last one is the very first song I can remember.

1. "Talk Show Host," by Radiohead.
2. "1979," by the Smashing Pumpkins
3. "Pressure," by Billy Joel.

Christchurch via Tucson, Az - The Roswell Incident (mildly cheating, as I doubt anyone here's heard them. Maybe I'll post an mp3 somewhere useful.)
