songs you feel in your bones

I'm finding lotsa good music here. A song that I really connect to is "The Day I Tried To Live by Soundgarden." I tend to keep to myself. I tried having lots of friends and I was successful and a very social person, but something in me changed to where I'm much happier by myself now.

My favorite song of all time that puts me in a good mood no matter what would have to be "Up Around the Bend by CCR" I'm shocked I havn't seen any Creedence Clearwater Revival on here. This song reminds me of driving up around this big ol' bend to my grandma's farm and that's my favorite place in the world.
 
I've been feeling this , its just a beautiful song with poignant lyrics & samples.

From a MC who just knows . I get goose bumps off this , the Video is an amazing piece of work as well

First to come to mind:

Nina Simone - Sinnerman (Rhythm and soul you shouldn't die without hearing)

Saul Williams - The Tao of Now
Children of the night
Only some will star the sky
Only believers in death will die
And fathers must feather the wings of women
For the unfeathered masses dangle ridiculous
Carrying crosses to phalayx filled tombs
The future sails silence through blood rivered wombs
That ripple with riddles of cows and spoons
And births moons and earths
Sun-centered at noon

The Tallest Man on Earth - It Will Follow the Rain
Have you ever seen the far side
Of a mountain swallow the sky
As you travel through the valley
As you're speedin' still far behind
Through the valley where lovers climb

Where the children still blink and sigh
They have caught a lightning strike
In a jar just to watch it die
In the valley where lovers climb

i feel u on that. the compilation its on, marco polo's port authority is one of the few somewhat recent classic hip hop albums. love the premier-esque skratchin for the hook.

i submit:
Charlatan: Foxes its an experimental synth based track without vocal accompaniment. hits directly in the heart chakra for me. listeining to it i feel as if no matter what happens, in the words of Treach from naughty by nature "everything is gonna be alright" (♥_♥) add that one too
 
I wont listen to a song twice if I cant feel it in every cell in my body...
 
the first time i heard this it was as backGround music to me, i was clueless as to its meaning/origin. it invaded my dreams for several weeks, i would wake up in tears, and nearly break-down thinking about it not-dreaming in public ~ this feels as though putting it lightly as possible....
it changed my life...and i havent heard it since the first time which was over a year ago.
here goes nothing!
;-)


what i wanted was to fall asleep
close my eyes and disappear
like a petal on a stream, a feather on the air
lily white and poppy red
i trembled when he laid me out
you wont feel a thing? he said, when you go down
nothing gonna wake you now?
dreams are sweat until theyre not?
men are kind until they are not?
flowers bloom until they rot and fall apart
is anybody listening?
i open my mouth and nothing comes out
nothing?
nothing gonna wake me now
flowers, i remember fields
of flowers, soft beneath my heels
walking in the sun
i remember someone
someone by my side
turned his face to mine
and then i turned away
into the shade
you, the one i left behind
if you ever walk this way
come and find me lying in the bed I made.

Anais Mitchell- Flowers(Eurydice's song)

while you were sleeping ~

forget for now what thine cannot recall
theres also is forgotten the same
for theres also has been mislead the same
rains of blood they have sought
for what they hold the value of the rains
of heaven as
is only to wash away their filth
as you will see here, love
for their acquirement
the good of god is gone
love
and what now is theirs,
is of their own doing...there is no other way
love
we are they, times have changed they will say
all does now lay under suspicion of their "sciences"
their sciences are tools, "the observation of life"
life the unlimited
love
they observe the world here
in all its glory, beauty, and infinite range
with their tools of finite devize
love, do you see?


upon the new mans inspection of matters of god
they use the tools which they created in the thought of a betterment
a betterment to a better place which they do not understand themselves

~ while you were sleeping

gods son did leave
as as he left
the culture that took the place of his everlasting love and light
is of the same scheme of this finite devize
love
for when the christ body and then spirit did leave us
love
the void was opened
and what is filling it
love
are the trappings and snares of mans naivety
love
what this means is
that
laid land-markers of time
hold tight your veil and the purity
that exists only from with
love
the pride that exists now in this world
exists on its own
love
this is the singularity which exists amongst the divided
their personal pride
there is but one language
one cause
one freedom
one acceptance
one patience
one binding factor
one source
that is love simply
what can be done i feel
is
for you to be a girl again
i for you only kneel here
openly

~ while you are waking ~

i am
extending my heart not in fear of change
and from that which breaths deeply the air of
baths and drinks the waters of
warms and see clearly with the fire of
stands and harvests honestly from the land of
creates and and perceives from the serum
of gods light
the longer such elements are taken in haste
the more time the ignorance of man has
to create even deeper shallow more complex
complexities
love
i apologize
be free and dance
and allow the rain to feel the same freedom again to dance with you
openly
dance and allow the flowers, grasses and trees to again be free in your presence
openly
dance and be free love openly
allow the warmth from fire and the light from the stars to again be healing
be free love
and let the air carry and twirl with you
openly
thoughtfully
freely
justly
as the sum of all factors wish to be
what is to be created now
is trust in the divine source
in each whom does inhabit this beautiful world
love
the earth our mother will again be free
you love
are not trapped
neither are we
neither are those souls who inhabit this beautiful world
love
have faith
be free
because of you
faith will be free again




shall we ?

Lot's of songs fit that description with me but right now id have to go with:

The Smiths - How soon is now?

I am the son
and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

There's a club, if you'd like to go
You could meet someone who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen now,
When exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone


Tupac - Changes

Come on come on
I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself
is life worth living should I blast myself?
I'm tired of bein' poor & even worse I'm black
my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro
pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares
one less hungry mouth on the welfare
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers
give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
It's time to fight back that's what Huey said
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead
I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
unless we share with each other
We gotta start makin' changes
learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
and that's how it's supposed to be
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
but things changed, and that's the way it is


Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah


I see no changes all I see is racist faces
misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
We under I wonder what it takes to make this
one better place, let's erase the wasted
Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
'cause mo' black and white is smokin' crack tonight
and only time we chill is when we kill each other
it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And although it seems heaven sent
We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
But some things will never change
try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game
Now tell me what's a mother to do
bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you
You gotta operate the easy way
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is


We gotta make a change
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.


And still I see no changes can't a bother get a little peace
There's war in the streets and war in the middle east
Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs
so the police can bother me
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do
But now I'm back with the facts givin' em back to you
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
crack you up and pimps Smack you up
You gotta learn to hold ya own
they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
But tell the cops they can't touch this
I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this
That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool
my mama didn't raise no fool
And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped
I never get to lay back
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
some buck that I roughed up way back
comin' back after all these years
rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh



Some things will never change...

"Going Back To Cali"
LL CoOl J

I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali - hmm, I don't think so
I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali - I don't think so

Going back to Cali, styling, profiling
Growling, and smiling, while in the sun
The top is down, on the black Corvette
And it's fly, cause it's sittin on Daytons
Laurents steering wheel, plushed out, gold-leaf phantom top
and three girls waiting
VaRRRoOM engine's blowin, the chrome, is shining
Passing all the cars on the way
Movement of the wind, back wheels spin
Pop in a cassette and push play

I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali - yea y'all, I don't think so
I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali

I'm going back to Cali, shakin'em, bakin'em
Takin'em to spots they never before hung
?? the place, on Sunset it's a trip
Where the A.C.'s cold, and the girls still strip
The record skip, but this girl kept dancing
Prancing, grinding, grinning, romancing
I asked her to the barn, so we could hit the hay
I wanna do this, Brutus, but I don't wanna pay

I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali - no man I don't think so
I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali

I'm going back to Cali, rising, surprising
Advising realizing, she's sizing me up
Her bikini small - heels tall
She said, she liked, the ocean
She showed me a beach, gave me a peach
and pulled out the suntan lotion
Now I thought that was fast, but this girl was faster
She's lookin for a real good time
I said, "Close your eyes, I got a surprise,"
and I ran away with the bottle of wine

I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali - I don't think so
I'm going back to Cali - Cali, Cali
I'm going back to Cali, I don't think so
