Your theme song?

Just thinking the other day about a song or a piece of music that you really relate to or seems capture you as a person?

Mine is Disney's Hercules the main song called I will go the distance, I like the tune and its my favourite Disney film, but its the lyrics....first verse copied below (hopefully I will not invoke the wrath of the forum gods)....

"I have often dreamed
Of a far of place
Where a great, warm, welcome
Will be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer
When they see my face
And a voice keeps saying
This is where I'm meant to be
I will find my way
I can go the distance
I'll be there someday
If I can be strong
I know every mile
Will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere
To feel like I belong......"
 
Would be very interested to hear your thoughts around this subject

  • Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd and Space Oddity by Bowie are my favourites, but Unforgiven by Metallica could have been written for me:

    New blood joins this Earth
    And quickly he's subdued
    Through constant pained disgrace
    The young boy learns their rules

    With time, the child draws in

    This whipping boy done wrong
    Deprived of all his thoughts
    The young man struggles on and on, he's known

    Ooh, a vow unto his own

    That never from this day
    His will they'll take away

    What I've felt, what I've known

    Never shined through in what I've shown
    Never be, never see
    Won't see what might have been
     
    They dedicate their lives
    To running all of his
    He tries to please them all
    This bitter man he is
     
    Throughout his life, the same
    He's battled constantly
    This fight he cannot win
    A tired man they see no longer cares
     
    The old man then prepares
    To die regretfully
    That old man here is me

    What I've felt, what I've known
    Never shined through in what I've shown
    Never be, never see
    Won't see what might have been

    What I've felt, what I've known
    Never shined through in what I've shown
    Never free, never me
    So I dub thee unforgiven
