As someone who is somewhat new to this forum and found DT's Music less than a year ago.
I'm trying to get an understanding of the Forum Members who's posts I read. Maybe You are also? So to do this I'm asking all of You to list songs that describe You, sort of a musical biography. Thanks
Here's mine - eclectic and cross several generations - but they be me -

Placebo - pure morning
Bob Seger - still the same
Megadeth - sweating bullets
Roxy Music - in every dream house
 
I dont know that the following songs describe me but they are songs which I always get totally into and love deeply.

DT - Sun fired Blanks/Cathode Ray Sunshine/My faeryland forgotten
Stratovarious - Soul of a vagabond
Skinless - From Sacrifice to survival.
Opeth - Bleak
NightWish - Slaying the Dreamer
Kalmah - Bird of il' omen <----that's a new addition to my favourite songs ever.
Nevermore - Deconstruction.
Dragon force - dawn of a new world

Thats more than three but I guess they're my favourites. I need a bit of powermetal in my life because it inspires hope and the adventurous side within me. The deathmetal gives me the power to control my hate and/or vent my anger and focus on my goals. Dark Tranquillity expands my mind and calms me in any situation... as does Kalmah to a degree. Melodic Death (like DT and Kalmah) makes me realise the true beauty this world has to offer. Thats my explanation as to why I chose the songs that I did.
 
nice idea!

here are my choices:

anathema - regret
disbelief - misery
katatonia - deadhouse
machine head - block
opeth - the leper affinity
rage against the machine - beautiful world
samael - my saviour

let's see what you can figure out from that :)

Well according to this.. you enjoy gardening, bird-watching, and long walks on the beach.
..it also says something about a seafood allergy, but this notion seems to be somewhat contradicted by your reference to Samael's 'My Saviour' ..so I'm not sure.
 
nice idea by the way
alright lemme see..

Charon - Drive
The Crown - Total Satan :kickass: (doesnt descibe me..i just love it)
Dream Theater - Endless Sacrifice
Dark Tranquillty - Haven/Auctioned
Arch Enemy - Behind The Smile

all i can think of right now
 
*giggle* at Mr. Mags's post.

For me:
David Gray -- Gathering Dust
Coldplay -- Trouble
Anathema -- Fragile Dreams
Sentenced -- The River

and, no I'm not incredibly miserable... I just don't like happy music... nor want to quote more than one song by the same band...

I may add more later.
 
In being insomniac, I heard Garbage's "Only Happy When It Rains" late a few nights ago. My friend said that described me, as I'm a little cynical and gloomy. :p

To add to the list after more listening:
Coldplay--Amsterdam
David Gray--This Year's Love
Rotting Christ -- Dying
Down -- Stone the Crow

they describe my outlook on life and its chances well. Hehe, not sure what message these songs give about me. :)
 
dogmaddit, that means going through all the songs i have and that's far too tedious. also i can't say i've analysed much of the lyrics :\ i'll have to think long and hard about this... then be too lazy and never post :lol:
 
So I'm walking through the local mall and bump into this woman I've not seen in about 5 years. So we're chit chatting and on the background music the Bob Seger song 'Still the Same' starts playing and She says "They're playing your song".
I've put that song on my list here but over the years I've heard friends tell me time after time that 'Still the Same' is my song. I'm cool with that -
 
Wow, thanks for bumping :) Good thread...
