songs you feel in your bones

50 mile view by mount kimbie.

There is no lyrics but i felt this song in my bones and was vibrating all over my body and traveling through my mind on a good dose of DXM listening to this. Thats why its so great everytime i listen to this song i go back to that trip. Woww give it a listen all the way through.

Starts off spacey like, then around the two minute mark when that shit started playing i was soo euphoric it was unbelievable.

Visions of Johanna by Bob Dylan!!!!!!!

Here's the full lyrics for anyone who wants to read a good piece of poetry:http://www.songmeanings.net/songs/view/72949/#73014549770

I love this song so much. It's such a good piece of writing, and the melody and chords are so simple yet powerful.
The intro lines is interesting to me:
"Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're trying to be so quiet?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doing our best to deny it.
And Louise holds a handful of rain, tempting you to defy it."

Bob Dylan's lyrics are brilliant for many reasons, one of which is that they are specific enough that you can have a sense of what he's talking about, but vague enough to fill in your own meaning. I guess most good lyrics are like that, but there's just so many in this one song that inspire me. He really is a poet (in case you thought that was hype), and it shows during this song. He doesn't really tell a story in this song, but it's more like flashes of events in his life that remind him of Johanna, and how there's so many falsehoods in this world that people chase when they should just be focusing on love. That might be a stretch, but it sounds good to me, and that's the thing with poetry, any thing that comes to your mind as a result of reading a poem is a perfectly valid response. It's the more natural way of deciphering meaning, IMO, than simply breaking down each song line by line and trying to find out their literal meaning. The visions and thoughts that pop into my head throughout this song make me feel awesome.

This song is about going through life being burdened by memories of a past love, Johanna, while at the same time trying to move on and realizes that the girls he finds aren't a replacement. Louise is the girl who is basically throwing herself at him, but she's too clingy and delicate, and that's not his style. Johanna seems to be much more than just a past love though, she could also be the source of his inspiration, his muse, as well as the cause of his suffering. She seems to be the lens through which he is viewing the world. Maybe she's a representative of his higher power, and he's struggling with his faith in humanity?
He introduces some interesting other characters throughout the song as well.
One that I can relate to:
"Little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously. He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously."
In this line he knocked me out of my own depression and feeling sorry for myself. He grabbed me by the ears as was like "cut it out, you don't need to be wallowing in your own problems. We all got shit to deal with, quit being so useless."

Another line I love, it's the line that I first fell in love with during this song:
"Inside museums infinity goes up on trial. Voices echo 'this is what salvation must be like after a while.' And Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues, you can tell by the way she smiles."
Just the imagery and cleverness of this line made such an impression on me.
Everyone in history, since that painting came out, was like "oh Mona Lisa has such a mysterious smile, I wonder what Leonardo Da Vinci was thinking." But simple ol' Bob comes around and's like, "she's just got the blues, don't you see?"
There's so much to this song I could probably write quite a lot about it, but I'll quit while I'm ahead.

she writes: "Dead ahead in the light". from this alone i think of the term Dead-Head, AKA Co-Pilot... usually into a foreign-place ill say, this takes only sitting there and trusting then doing like it or not once you get there.

Siouxsie and the BansheesTribute- Into the Light

lyrics:
NSFW:

Into the line
I see it fine
Into the line
Our hearts entwine
Remember when
Your time again

Standing in the light
Always sitting on the line
Never on a side
Always wanting to be right
Pushing out the light
Standing in the light
I never wanted to be right
Now I'm attracted by the light
And blinded my the sight

Into the light
I see it fight
Into the light
A new horizon
Bleached into white
Kept out of sight

Dead ahead in the night
Burning in the light
And knowing that it's right
Driving in the night
Dead ahead in the light
Into the light
 
Yes! :D

That Guitare intro and the beautiful, slow beat of the bass drum when he sings the last 'Were'...Ahhhhh Makes me want to drink some Malt on the Porch, on my rockin chair and chill as the world goes by. :)

Yes. :) I love the plucking of the guitar just before the chorus comes in. I love the lyrics:

"24 and there's so much more, live alone in a paradise"

"Doesn't mean that much to me, to mean that much to you"

"I've been first and last, look at how the time goes past, but I'm all alone at last, rolling home to you."
 
Old man is totally the truth.
Another Young song I feel in my bones is "Thrasher" A little less known, but so beautifully poetic, combined with amazing guitar playing.

NSFW:

They were hiding behind hay-bales
They were planting in the full moon
They had given all they had for something new
But the light of day was on them
They could see the thrashers coming
And the water shone like diamonds in the dew

And I was just getting up
Hit the road before it's light
Tryin' to catch an hour on the sun
When I saw those thrashers rollin' by
Lookin' more than two lanes wide
I was feelin' like my day had just begun

Where the eagle glides descending
There's an ancient river bending
Through the timeless gorge of changes, where sleeplessness awaits
I searched out my companions
Who were lost in crystal canyons
When the aimless blade of science, slashed the Pearly Gates

It was then that I knew I'd had enough
Burned my credit card for fuel
Headed out to where the pavement turns to sand
With a one-way ticket to the land of truth
And my suitcase in my hand
How I lost my friends I still don't understand

They had the best selection
They were poisoned with protection
There was nothing that they needed, nothing left to find
They were lost in rock formations
Or became park bench mutations
On the sidewalks and in the stations
They were waiting, waiting
So I got bored and left them there
They were just deadweight to me
Better down the road without that load
Brings back the time when I was eight or nine
I was watchin' my momma's TV
It was that great Grand Canyon rescue episode
Where the vulture glides descending
On an asphalt highway bending
Through libraries and museums
Galaxies and stars
Down the windy halls of friendship
To the rose clipped by the bullwhip
The motel of lost companions
Waits with heated pool and bar

But me, I'm not stopping there; got my own row left to hoe
Just another line in the field of time
When the thrasher comes I'll be stuck in the sun like the dinosaurs in shrines
But I'll know the time has come to give what's mine

Every APC song in existence. So sad that Tool got back together. APC is so much better.

Joy- Phish
Trey wrote it for his sister who died recently.
This is their newest album, after the dark times they've been through and now they're back together, and these songs are just as good as anything they've ever produced.
The song just feels so good, listen to it and tell me it doesn't feel good!!

Majorly fond of APC's melodic sound too...



Pearl Jam - I Got ID(Shit)
...*please ignore the images that spoil the song

...and I always prefer hearing 'Big Jerk-off in the Middle of the Sea' instead of 'Pictue a coffin...'' -Its more befitting. :)

Lupe Fiasco LASERS - Words I Never Said

My mind goes completely numb........
 
Look out of any window, any morning, any evening, any-day.
Maybe the sun is shining, birds are singing,
No rain is falling from a heavy sky.
What do you want me to do, to do for you to see you through?
For this is all a dream we dreamed one afternoon, long ago.

Walk out of any doorway, feel your way, feel your way like the day before.
Maybe you'll find direction,
Around some corner where it's been waiting to meet you.
What do you want me to do, to watch for you while you are sleeping?
The please dan't be surprised when you find me dreaming too.

Look into any eyes you find by you, you can see clear to another day,
Maybe been seen before, through other eyes on other days while going home.
What do you want me to do, to do for you to see you through?
It's all a dream we dreamed one afternoon, long ago.

Walk into splintered sunlight,
Inch your way through dead dreams to another land.
Maybe you're tired and broken,
Your tongue is twisted with words half spoken and thoughts unclear .

What do you want me to do, to do for you to see you through?
A box of rain will ease the pain, and love will see you through.

Just a box of reign, wind and water
Believe it if you need it, if you don't, just pass it on
Sun and shower, wind and rain
In and out the window like a moth before a flame

And it's just a box of rain, I don't know who put it there,
Believe it if you need it, or leave it if you dare.
And it's just a box of rain, or a ribbon for your hair;
Such a long long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.

Grateful Dead - Box of Rain
