Do u have a theme song? Soemthing that u always listen to or whenever u hear it, it provokes a strong upholding emotion inside of u?

One of mine would be How do u like me now?" By Toby Keith.

[The Hitman]

I think that Loser by Beck is my little theme song...

The Hitman

[lioness]

'Wah-Wah' by George Harrison. Don't ask.

 

[Portia]

`Sway' as sung by Dean Martin - i always want to sing it when I think of it.

 

[coxon]

yes... its 'Loser' by beck...

another one i've taken a liking to as an anthem is Pulp's 'The Fear'...

 

[McCartney5]

Betterman by Pearl Jam

 

[Bulldog1954]

Self Esteem - Offspring
Followed by Love Shack by the B52's

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

As a U2 fan:
For inspiration, something like the extended mix of "even better than the real thing"; &
When I am pissed off with my girlfriend, "with or without you".

Green Day's "good rindance (time of your life)" & Hunters & Collectors' "holy grail" always bring back great memories of the '97 & '98 GF's.

 

[Eagle_Fan]

For a real original one..... 'Kate' by the Ben Folds Five. Always cheers me up when I hear it.

 

[GoEagles]

All Fired Up by Pat B

 

[QT]

We are the Champions gets my blood boiling

 

[Jars458]

One More River - James Reyne

Goodbye my Friend - Linda Rondstat

Misere - Andrea Bocelli and John Miles - Channel seven used it for the highlights package of the 1998 grand final at teh end of the teleccast- briliant stuff

 

[Cyclops]

I have several-in no particular order:

Beethoven's "Emperor" Concerto second movement.

A R Rahman "Mumbai" theme

Irish traditional "She moved through the fair"

Of course like everybody I really dig "Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi" from the Carmina Burana by Carl Orff (theme from Excalibur), and "Highway to Hell" should be the national anthem.

 

[Asgardian]

I have a couple of "special" songs

DANIEL by Elton John always brings a tear to my eye, one of my nephew's, named Daniel, was killed in a car accident in 1991

A DAY IN THE LIFE as sung by John Lennon on the Sgt Pepper's album by the Beatles always makes me reflective

BURIED ALIVE IN THE BLUES by Janis Joplin always makes me think "what if", and I transpose that thought onto my life

LIFE IN THE FAST LANE by the Eagles makes me think "there goes my life but for a quirk of circumstance"

NOWADAYS CLANCY CAN'T EVEN SING by Buffalo Springfield makes me lose myself in a bygone age, full of surreal poetry

THE WEIGHT by The Band is just hauntingly beautiful

I WAS ONLY 19 by Redgum could almost be our anthem or our epitaph

CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME by Blind Faith is a reminder of my youth, and my generation

DEAR MR FANTASY by Traffic is another song that transports your mind

CHILD IN TIME by Deep Purple, yes people, we all are still children at heart

There are lots more that I love, but you guys have a go at me when I do LONG lists, lol. . if you want to know more great songs and music just let me know and I'll do a recommended listening to list

[brampta]

ummm I went through a stage where every song I heard was my theme song which was bad news for my friends because it meant that we had to spend a lot of time on the dancefloor haha.

hmmmmm. how to pick.
Grinspoon - just ace (always a fave, always puts me in a top mood)
Jebediah - Teflon
and
The Bloodhound Gang - The Bad Touch (never got sick of it...)

 

[DEES RULE!]

Well I got three main ones.

The first one is "Hero" By Mariah Carey, which is a song I used to share with my best friend

The second one is "Higher" By Creed, its very inspirational and holds a special place in my heart (and also coz of one event at CS... ).

The third one is "Isobelle" By Dido. It hasn't been released but I got her album so yeah... Its a beautiful song and the lyrics are incredible.

I took this stupid test which tells you what your theme song is and I got "What a girl wants" by Christina Aguilira (I cannot spell her last name!!)
