This song always reminds me of the love i have for my wife. Its a very understated sexual song.

Sixto Rodriguez - Cause



This one gets me every time I hear the first line. I've never lost a job just before Christmas but this song makes me feel the pain of those who have.

Richard Harris - MacArthur Park


Love that stanza that goes:

MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again


The writer is taking about a broken relationship with a girl he was in love with and how he'd never be able to get that back. MacArthur Park (a real park in LA) was the place they'd spend their time together. Makes me think of my own lost youth.

Probably Boston's "A Man I'll Never Be" because it was hard to believe Brad Delp was so distraught that he committed suicide.

This one: I lost my dad in Feb. 2010, and I still miss him. Every time life kicks me in the balls I wish he was there to share his wisdom with me.

No need to explain...


Love that song! I'm shocked that, outside of Jungle Boy, John Eddie never made it big. Even here in NJ he's still not that well known.

This song reflects my feelings now, when I realized, that It's impossible to build a relationship with a girl, that I liked for the last 6 months, and we don't have a future. Painfully.
