Meaningful Songs of Past Year

Recommended Posts

Just interested in what song has really radiated something personally meaningful for people recently.

I really get choked by I Was On The Moon by Apollo Sunshine (which you can hear on their website Apollo Sunshine). Although I admittedly dig a lot of songs like that and a lot of their songs (Katonah, Hot Air Balloon, Happening and the Remix Ignition cover- all on the site)

hit the ground running by smog, geese by the national, reason to believe by springsteen, the wait by built to spill, and a good idea by sugar are 5 have been getting pretty regular clicks over here. they all got at least a little something to say to me.

i love that apollo song, too.

I was reading about a band in britain that encourages their fans to bring mix cd's to shows and leave them in a box for swapping. I think that's a killer idea and given the wealth of this communities ears that might be a really smart thing for us to do.

In the still of the night, in the world's ancient light

Where wisdom grows up in strife

My bewildering brain, toils in vain

Through the darkness on the pathways of life

Each invisible prayer is like a cloud in the air

Tomorrow keeps turning around

We live and we die, we know not why

But I'll be with you when the deal goes down

We eat and we drink, we feel and we think

Far down the street we stray

I laugh and I cry and I'm haunted by

Things I never meant nor wished to say

The midnight rain follows the train

We all wear the same thorny crown

Soul to soul, our shadows roll

And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

The moon gives light and shines by night

I scarcely feel the glow

We learn to live and then we forgive

O'er the road we're bound to go

More frailer than the flowers, these precious hours

That keep us so tightly bound

You come to my eyes like a vision from the skies

And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

I picked up a rose and it poked through my clothes

I followed the winding stream

I heard the deafening noise, I felt transient joys

I know they're not what they seem

In this earthly domain, full of disappointment and pain

You'll never see me frown

I owe my heart to you, and that's sayin' it true

And I'll be with you when the deal goes down

When the Deal Goes Down

Words and Music by Bob Dylan
