Songs That Move You

Post songs that you find moving in some way. I was talking with a friend about this today. Certain songs always "get" me, no matter how often I hear them. Here is the first one that comes to mind:

Dont wanna put a downer on the thread though so I will put a lively one on in a bit !

 

I don't know exactly what is meant by songs that "move" you, but this song was so empowering that it would make me cry to listen to it.

It may not mean as much today, but in 1993, this was the ballsiest statement I'd ever heard a woman make.

Hey girlfriend!

I got a proposition goes something like this:
Dare ya to do what you want
Dare ya to be who you will
Dare ya to cry right out loud
"You get so emotional baby"


Double dare ya, double dare ya, double dare ya
Girl-fuckin-friend yeah
Double dare ya
Double dare ya
Double dare ya
Girl


Don't you talk out of line
Don't go speaking out of your turn
Gotta listen to what the Man says
Time to make his stomach burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn


Double dare ya, double dare ya, double dare ya
Girl-fuckin-friend yeah
Double dare ya, double dare ya, double dare ya
Girl


You're a big girl now
You've got no reason not to fight
You've got to know what they are
Fore you can stand up for your rights
Rights, rights?
You do have rights


Double dare ya, double dare ya
Double dare triple fuckin dare ya girlfriend
Double dare ya, double dare ya, double dare ya
Girl

OMG that is so cool. I never made my own zine, but about 3 weeks ago (this is getting spooky) I spent the weekend making these collages out of concert fliers and fanzines and I framed them and hung them in my bathroom (I know, right?)

So now my bathroom is like this shrine to Riot Grrrl.

 

This song always takes me to my Irish roots....too bad the Hungarian Gyppo in me always seems to win. 51/49.

Clannad.

Thank You Mally, when you get time check out Lover's Crime by The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

 

I have a number of 'favourite' songs - many of which depend on my mood at the time, although this one has a profound significance.
"What was, and what may have been - if ..."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uqNLnEzDLA
Although the song has been covered by a number of artists, the use of an innocent child in the narrative is particularly poignant.
Despite the strides and advances in "Segregation, Bigotry, Hate and Prejudice" - sadly still remains with the last line of the song somewhat of an accurate summing up of those who take up with that credo of choice

This song was heavy on my mind as I looked forward to the day of coming back home from a deployment.
