Songs that affected your life
    #5680182 - 05/27/06 11:22 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

It was 1986. I was graduating from high school. I had discovered the punk rock scene 5 years earlier and spent my school years as a "punk". The first live band I ever saw was the Dead Kennedys and they remained (to this day) my favorite punk band.

Anyway, back to 1986...I was becoming dis-illusioned with the direction the punk rock scene was going. It was turning into a fashion and being marketed to kids of all ages. And the influx of new blood consisted mostly of kids looking to fight, do drugs, commit crimes, and just generally be assholes. The ideas and values of the early punk scene I had been a part of were being lost to commercialism. At least this was how I felt. I had doubts that maybe I was expecting too much from it all.

Then, just about this time, the Dead Kennedys released what would be their last album "Bedtime For Democracy". Musically it wasn't their best work but the political and social statements contained in the lyrics of this album are still to this day some of the most simple yet powerful I've ever come across. And in particular there was one song that jumped out at me. It was a scathing commentary on the declining state of the punk rock scene titled "Chickenshit Conformist". The lyrics reaffirmed my feelings toward the scene and I knew that it wasn't just me who was disgusted with it all. Almost immediately I turned away from the scene and went in a different direction with my social life.

I still love punk music but the glory days of punk rock are gone (for me at least). It was nice to be a part of it all when it was still new and fresh and full of ideas/people who were simply trying make their social statements in their own unique way. These attitudes and people still exist in many forms, they always will, but not in the post 1980's punk rock scene.

Heres the lyrics, and if you care you can download and listen to the song that changed my social life in a dramatic way in 1986.

"Chickenshit Conformist"

Punk's not dead
It just deserves to die
When it becomes another stale cartoon
A close-minded, self-centered social club
Ideas don't matter, it's who you know
If the music's gotten boring
It's because of the people
Who want everyone to sound the same
Who drive bright people out
Of our so-called scene
'Til all that's left Is just a meaningless fad
Hardcore formulas are dogshit
Change and caring are what's real
Is this a state of mind
Or just another label
The joy and hope of an alternative
Have become its own cliche
A hairstyle's not a lifestyle
Imagine Sid Vicious at 35
Who needs a scene
Scared to love and to feel
Judging everythng
By loud fast rules appeal
Who played last night?
"I don't know, I forgot.
But diving off the stage Was a lot of fun."

[Chorus:]
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees
Make the same old mistakes
Again and again,
Chickenshit conformist
Like your parents

What's ripped us apart even more than drugs
Are the thieves and the goddamn liars
Ripping people off when they share their stuff
When someone falls are there any friends?
Harder core than thou for a year or two
Then it's time to get a real job
Others stay home, it's no fun to go out
When the gigs are wrecked by gangs and thugs
When the thugs form bands, look who gets record deals
From New York metal labels looking to scam
Who sign the most racist queerbashing bands they can find
To make a buck revving kids up for war
Walk tall, act small
Only as tough as gang approval
Unity is bullshit
When it's under someone's fat boot
Where's the common cause
Too many factions
Safely sulk in their shells
Agree with us on everything
Or we won't help with anything
That kind of attitude
Just makes a split grow wider
Guess who's laughing while the world explodes
When we're all crybabies
Who fight best among ourselves

[Chorus]

That farty old rock and roll attitude's back
"It's competition, man, we wanna break big."
Who needs friends when the money's good
That's right, the '70s are back.
Cock-rock metal's like a bad laxative
It just don't move me, ya know?
The music's OK when there's more ideas than solos
Do we rally need the attitude too?
Shedding thin skin too quickly
As a fan it disappoints me
Same old stupid sexist lyrics
Or is Satan all you can think of?
Crossover is just another word
For lack of ideas
Maybe what we need
Are more trolls under the bridge
Will the metalheads finally learn something-
Or will the punks throw away their education?
No one's ever the best
Once they believe their own press
"Maturing" don't mean rehashing
Mistakes of the past

[Chorus]

The more things change
The more they stay the same
We can't grow
When we won't criticize ourselves
The '60s weren't all failure
It's the '70s that stunk
As the clock ticks we dig the same hole
Music scenes ain't real life
They won't get rid of the bomb
Won't eliminate rape
Or bring down the banks
Any kind of real change
Takes more time and work
Than changing channels on a TV set

[Chorus]

You invented the wheel....You push the motherfucker!!

Alice In Chains - Dirt album  - first album that I ever heard that had emotion in it, to me anyway.

Banco de Gaia - Magical Sounds - first electronic album I ever was obsessed with.

Shpongle - Are You Shpongled?  - THE trip album for me, I play it every time I trip and it helps in created some of the most intense experiences of my life.

Opeth - My Arms Your Hearse - first metal album that I heard that shocked me.  It is absolutely a beautiful album.


I know you said "songs" but every song on those albums affected me.  :smile:

Sigur Ros - the soundtrack to a schitzophrenic breakdown, the mainlining of One beauty into my mind and emotion. Running around singing niggers, stealing Armani scarves from department stores, buying Emerald rings and heralding Her name to the stars.
Agaetis Bjurn album specifically. All their other stuff is similarly potent, i am now reclaiming the albums incredible beauty back from the further extremitites of the madness.

Stupid Girl - Garbage: First song to ever break through my consciousness, in the name of appreciating music.

Dark Side of the Moon: (Brain) "FUCK. This is AWESOME"

Red Hot Chili Peppers: Buddhism/Fire breakthrough, this album waited patiently for 3 years for me to realise how awesome it is.

Beatles, the early stoner years. General wonder at life in a foggy abstract haze. Soundtrack to love and laziness - partucularly Abbey Road and Sgt. Peppers.

Nothing perhaps that was a microcosmic crystallisation of my feelings at any one point, but i get that in a small way perhaps from the montage of music i experience as i go about my life.

Oh and another from the consciousness crises: Working Class Hero - John Lennon, *shudder*

Led Zeppelin's 'Ramble On' has helped (and still does) me through some pretty rough waters; especially this verse:

"T'was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair;
But Gollum, and the evil one, crept up and slipped away with her.
And there ain't nothing I can do, no.. I guess I'll keep on ramblin' "

I guess it reminds me that no matter how dark and shitty things are, even if I feel completely alone and helpless, I just have to *ahem* ramble on.

"Galapagos" by Smashing Pumpkins

In retrospect, it just sounds like a cheesy love song, but at the time I was so blown away with it that I was inspired to start writing my own songs. Unfortunately, the creative spark seems to have burned out in me by now.

Octavarium - Dream Theater

All That I Bleed - Savatage

Signe - Eric Clapton

All three has some impact on me at one point in my life. There are more songs, but these are the three main ones.

Love - Forever Changes.

Since I started loving the music so much I started reading about the band, and it was that way I found out about magic mushrooms :smile:

This is the time and life that I am living
And I’ll face each day with a smile
For the time that I’ve been given such a little while
And the things that I must do consist of more than style
There are places that I am going

Lateralus - Tool

Deep in a mushie trip, this song changed my entire psyche. I was a physically and mentally different person after that; definently changed me for the better too. I never really grasped how beautiful and unique existence was/is til' that moment. Sorta cheesy but true.

Music in general has affected my life tremendously. I remember as a kid I wasn't really into it, but as I began experiencing more complex emotions growing up, I turned to music and found a lot of clarity. I can listen to anything from Tool, to Kottonmouth Kings, Sublime, Floyd, Zeppelin, Eminem...to name a few. I find comfort in the obscene depths of rap all the way into the mindbending notes of classic rock.

"what Sarah said"- Death Cab for Cutie.

Great song. really listen to the lyrics if u have the chance


--------------------
"People living deeply have no fear of death."
"Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love."
"Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings."

And Vincent Van Gogh, why do you weep?
You were on your way to heaven
But the road was steep
And who was there to break your fall?
We're guilty, one and all

And I don't know much,
But I do know this:
With a golden heart comes a rebel fist
And every single soldier wasn't fired,
Some have quit

Once again I wake up alone on the wrong side of the bed
And once again you begin your dancing nakedly on the right side of my head

It's for a lack of better words that I can hardly speak my soul
And I'm feeling what I'm feeling when I'm feeling when it's time to lose control, my love

And once again we're off to war
But I can't agree with what we're fighting for
And that's not all, because every time she smiles
I see her soul, and I smile what a wonderful life

It's true I used to try, but then I gave up
I learned it doesn't really matter,
what I do ain't enough to appease or to please,
all my well meaning deeds seem to all go up in smoke
And every time I look into these smoke filled skies
I wonder what she's doing, why I volunteered to die
But tonight I will fight for my life so I might see my wife again

I explained to her that I'd be back
And I gave my word that the fighting wouldn't last
But despite my pact, I know that every breath I draw might be my last,
and I smile: It's been a wonderful life

God damn, another summer in the city
and I never seen a girl look so pretty as you
when you smile oh you're wild for a while,
I was hoping I might see you again
And I know that everyone is willing to go
and I find I'll turn it all and leave on a dime
If I leave tonight (screw what's right) I can make it home by dawn

And I was told "Boy, prepare for war"
But they failed to mention what I'd be fighting for
So I fight for this: the fact that as I pass away,
I'll feel her kiss, and I'll smile: what a wonderful life,
Me of my, what a wonderful life,
Oh to die for such a wonderful life

Sigur Ros - Takk

Balligomingo

Delerium

Conjure One

Cafe Del Mar

Theivery Corporation

This is the type of music I have been listening to in the last few months, a total change from what I used to listen to.

I was lucky enough to see The Beatles and the Stones on the Ed Sullivan show when i was a young boy
My first Album was the White album but i was into Creedance, Hendrix, Clapton, The Who and Neil Young during that time also
Creednce was my first concert and the Eagles were the back up band :smile:
When i was a freshman in high school i opted to see Lou Reed instead of seeing Floyd during the Meddle tour in `71
Ill allways regret missing Floyd :crazy:

When I was a very young kid (9 or 10) I had my Dad's copy of Europe '72 by the Grateful Dead and listened to it every day. For some reason the song Jack Straw affected me tremendously, every time I heard it tears would come to my eyes from something precious I felt in the song. Then I lost the CD and forgot which song it was and for many years could only remember the feeling it gave me. Then I found it again and was happy as a clam. It's still one of my favorite songs and it really shaped my ideas of musical beauty.

In high-school Kottonmouth Kings made me want to smoke pot. haha everytime I heard their music it just gave me a craving.

Umm ones that really affected my life, only one that I can remember is Sublime: "Had A Dat" I so deeply connect with this song, its brang tears to my eyes more then once

Raging and swirling, getting inside, I feel Like I'm going to Break!
Bright sun sinking low,
I never feel afraid to let emotions show.
Well I did.
Now take a look at me,
I had a close brush before your destiny.

Before I end, and you'll be victims of
my stories, tales, lies, and exaggerations.
I'm gonna
When your living life like a show
you gotta
take a bow to the people you know

I said lie, for me
lying under a process tree
oh engrossing in my brain
feeling like I'm going a little insane.

a little close inside
feels like I'm going INSANE!

Red lights
are
sinking low

I grab another beer cuz it's time to go...

I feel my head burst, I head out to your car
And I pray to Jesus Christ, but you won't get too far

I say uh, headlights and uh second gear
I run the road of like and skip the things you fear
I said that you might, that you might find a better way
to justify the evil things that you say

Ah, help me please, ah help me please
because I'm going upon my knees

I said, I said
going down to my knees
I pray to the Lord up above!

Help me,
I'm falling down
feeling now the cold, cold, cold, hard ground

haunting faces, and moving lines
slumber party for tonight

Pound it hard, your gonna pound it again
but please just do not pump up my friend
cuz it seems alright, gonna push him around
but I can't be taken for no clown.

Because,
when I am on the ground I CRY!

wowowowowowo.. Dub Style!

oh, cool and eazy
oh no
cool and easy
to the sweet reggae music
oh no
feels alright to sweet reggae music
feels alright
sweet reggae music....

Incubus - Drive

If you've never heard it, I suggest a download. If you have, you might have some idea how that song could affect someones life. I consider it my favorite song ever since I heard it, around a year after the CD came out.

Kottonmouth kings used to have a stand they rapped about and made a lot of valid points. It seems they've changed though. They went from "Tangerine Sky" and "Waking Dream" to "We're goin' to a party".

Voltaire - Goodnight Dragon Slayer...

It was the first song by Voltaire that got me hooked, and through a seemingly random chain of events it led me to the love of my life. But it never would have happened had I not felt some appreciation for the little lullaby. Since then Voltaire has remained one of my top three favorite bands/artists...

From Kid A by radiohead.. these three songs in succession put me on the the middle path. Even before i had the experience i had always liked these songs in a different way than others. From How to dissapear completely to treefingers to optimistic.

The whole album is beyond words

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
  The frumious Bandersnatch!

311 has awed me many times. even if i never hear the song again through a stereo, Beyond the Gray Sky by 311 will always be playing in my head.

Light a candle for the dead
The wick is burning returning what we have
It's who we are
We'll reach you if you're beyond the furthest star

Don't give up the fight to stay alive and even if you have to
Find the reason of another's pain if they lose you
If not for your self then those around who care like I do
One day you'll see the clear blue

Beyond the Gray Sky
Light a candle...
The wick...
It's who we are...

One day youill see the clear blue
Beyond the Gray Sky

I can't believe you didnit call
What made you want to end it all
Wasn't there something I should have tried
To help you see beyond the gray sky
