LadyAngelika -> This song is about you (4/3/2005 1:26:16 PM)
Last night I went out with some girlfriends to an 80's themed night for a little dancing. What fun! I did the whole fishnets, pointy kitty heels and virgin bracelets thing. A blast! The music just had us all grinning, it was brilliant. Along comes Kim Carnes' Betty Davis Eyes and my friend turns to me and says, "This song reminds me so much of you! It's lke she is singing about you." I found that very interesting. Has anyone else had such an experience, someone telling them a song felt like it was about them, or even really strongly identifying with a song? Her hair is Harlowe gold Her lips sweet surprise Her hands are never cold She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll turn her music on you You won't have to think twice She's pure as New York snow She got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you She'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush She got Greta Garbo stand off sighs She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll let you take her home It whets her appetite She'll lay you on her throne She got Bette Davis eyes She'll take a tumble on you Roll you like you were dice Until you come out blue She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll expose you, when she snows you Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you She's ferocious and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy She's got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you She'll unease you All the better just to please ya She's precocious, and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll tease you She'll unease you Just to please ya She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll expose you, when she snows you She knows ya She's got Bette Davis eyes -LA

That's nice that your friend can identify you in those lyrics and that you agree. Kinda gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling to read that story. I can't recall anyone ever saying a song was about me nor can I think of a tune I identify strongly with. However, there are occasions when I think I can express my feelings for someone with the lyrics from "I Don't Care About You" by the punk band Fear; here's a sample of the lyrics: "I don't care about you! Oh noooooo!! I don't care about you! Fuck you!" Not exactly warm and fuzzy sentiments, eh? I'm pretty sure that tune was also from the '80s, but it sounds like it wasn't a slam dancing crowd so I guess they didn't play it.

Nothing like some angst ridden first wave punk rawk... My house smells just like a zoo It's chock full of shit and puke Cockroaches on the walls Grass growing on my balls oh well im so clean cut and I just want to fuck some slut I love living in the city I love living in the city Ive spent my whole life in the city where junk is king and the air smells shity people puking everywhere piles of blood, scabs, and hair bodies wasted and disease young people dying on the streets but the suburban scumbags they dont care they just get fat and die their hair I love living in the city I love living in the city As far as songs that I identify with, man, too many to list....

This song just reminds me so much of my Master. Not just the lyrics but the way he sings it, the rythm of it...i identify this song with Master. "A Little Less Conversation" (elvis presley) A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby Baby close your eyes and listen to the music Drifting through a summer breeze It's a groovy night and I can show you how to use it Come along with me and put your mind at ease A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby Come on baby I'm tired of talking Grab your coat and let's start walking Come on, come on Come on, come on Come on, come on Don't procrastinate, don't articulate Girl it's getting late, gettin' upset waitin' around A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby

heh. Now I wonder if I should be thrilled that someone has now said a song is about me, or maybe I shouldn't considering the song. But coming from you, my dear, I do feel honored to be called a freak.

Thank you LA! : ) Here's the one that i identify with (i dedicate this one to Master) Way Down (Elvis Presley) Babe, you're getting closer The lights are goin' dim The sound of your breathin' Has made the mood I'm in All of my resistance Is lying on the floor Taking me to places I've never been before Ooh, and I can feel it, Feel it, feel it, feel it Way down where the music plays Way down like a tidal wave Way down where the fires blaze Way down, down, way, way on down Ooh, my head is spinnin' You got me in your spell, A hundred magic fingers On a whirling carousel The medicine within me No doctor could prescribe Your love is doing something That I just can't describe Ooh, and I can feel it, Feel it, feel it, feel it Way down where the music plays Way down like a tidal wave Way down where the fires blaze Way down, down, way, way on down Hold me again, Tight as you can I need you so, Baby, let's go Way down where it feels so good Way down where I hoped it would Way down where I never could Way down, down, way, way on down

One hand loves the other So much on me Born stubborn me Will always be Before you count One two three I will have grown my own private branch Off this tree You gardener You discipliner Domestically I can obey all of your rules And still be, me I never thought I would compromise I never thought I would compromise I never thought I would compromise Let's unite tonight We shouldn't fight Embrace you tight Let's unite tonight I thrive best hermit style With a beard and a pipe And a parrot on each side Now I can't do this without you I never thought I would compromise I never thought I would compromise I never thought I would compromise Let's unite tonight We shouldn't fight Embrace you tight Let's unite tonight One hand love the other So much on me Let's unite tonight We shouldn't fight Embrace you tight Let's unite tonight Let's unite tonight We shouldn't fight Embrace you tight Let's...

Cool topic and excellent choices above! This is one that I have always felt spoke to me: And I'd give up forever to touch you Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life Cause sooner or later it's over I just don't want to miss you tonight And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything feels like the movies Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls (Of course, there's always Harmony by Elton John, which is where my nic came from, a first love who sang that song to me and used to call me that........oh youth!........smile) Be well, harmony

Demon requested I respond to m'Lady A's question with this for Him. 'Lucky Man' The Verve Happiness, More or less It's just a change in me Something in my liberty Oh, my, my Happiness Coming and going I watch you look at me Watch my fever growing I know just where I am But how many corners do I have to turn? How many times do I have to learn All the love I have is in my mind? Well, I'm a lucky man With fire in my hands Happiness Something in my own place I'm stood here naked Smiling, I feel no disgrace With who I am Happiness Coming and going I watch you look at me Watch my fever growing I know just who I am But how many corners do I have to turn? How many times do I have to learn All the love I have is in my mind? I hope you understand I hope you understand I got a love that'll never die Happiness More or less It's just a change in me Something in my liberty Happiness Coming and going I watch you look at me Watch my fever growing I know Oh, my, my Oh, my, my Oh, my, my Oh, my, my I got a love that'll never die I got a love that'll never die No, no I'm a lucky man...

Mouthy -> RE: This song is about you (4/17/2005 10:42:33 PM)
I LOVE this question. I've been listening to this song on the ol' iPod for weeks, without having quite the right time/place to offer it up: When I was 17 I dreamed of being king and having everything I wanted But that was long ago and my dreams did not unfold, so I'm still the king of nothing When I was 17 I dreamed I gave a ring to A pretty queen and then I held her But that was slumber's fault for I have no love at all and I'm still the king of nothing If I could rule I'd dance my cares away Find romance every day I wouldn't have to listen to this poor fool say I'm the king I'm the king I'm the king of nothing --Lyrics and music by James Seals, 1970 Every time I read a blast of petulant whining from a "Master" who was thwarted in an attempt to enforce His Will, it just somehow floats into my head. I LOVE that song. <edited for typo>
