Soundtrack of your life

[Sean25]

If you could pick only one song to characterize yourself at or up to this point in your life, what would it be?  Kind of like the soundtrack of your life except just pick one.

This is a tough one for me.  I had to think about it.
Mine- Gary Jules- Mad world

[Paul]

I've been blessed with great family, great friends and a life filled with enjoyment, so I would have to pick the soundrack from Rudy for my life.

These past couple of years, and even more so the last few months have been a long hard road out of hell for me. I'm not sure that many people will understand the metaphor here, but it doesn't really matter. There are two songs that really describe ME now.

The first song is from a band called The Famine. The song is Ascend.


I tried to do it on my own
That time is wasted
My mind and evil has grown
I had to face it
Deliver me from this pain
Without You I have failed
Make me whole again

It's been so long since I've said Your name
I will return to You, run to your embrace
I will take shelter in Your wings
To soar above it and set me free

I want to drown in the floods of forgiveness
Pouring fire to my soul
My lungs are filled breathing in healing waters
Oh Lord tear it down, let it flow

From the valley of the dead I must ascend
Take it all away until there's nothing left
Remember things you said
Give me new hope oh Lord
Make me whole again

It's been so long since I've said Your name
I will return to You, run to your embrace
I will take shelter in Your wings
To soar above it and set me free

Now that time is wasted I had to face it



The second song is Demon Hunter - My Throat is an Open Grave

We lay face down in pale solitude.
To save face, we pulled our walls in front of you.
To the same place where we danced in front of you.
We fell from grace and watched the hope fall from your face.
This isn't me i used to say.
All the love was so gone.
It feels good to be alive.
I've been dead for so long: and all the broken promises.
I can't face. Afraid if someone notices, I lose my place.
Fractured, broken, paralyzed.
I need some space, tear me open, analyze.
This isn't me i used to say.
All the love was so gone.
It feels good to be alive.
I've been dead for so long.
Wake up screaming, I'm awake and dreaming,
And i won't stop breathing until my heart stops beating.
This isn't me, i used to say.
All the love was so gone, It feels good to be alive,
I've been dead for so long

[GASlick]

Cam,
It sounds like you've had an awakening.  I obviously don't know the details, but I'm glad you've lifted up.

I'm still thinking of a song that identifies me.......

Cam,
It sounds like you've had an awakening.  I obviously don't know the details, but I'm glad you've lifted up.

I'm still thinking of a song that identifies me.......

Yes, I have. I really can't explain how it happened, so I just attribute everything to providence.

[The Scottish Ambassador]

Dont know if this is the song that signifies my life but it is the one which has had the biggest impact on me lately :-

Which Jesus do you follow?
Which Jesus do you serve?
If Ephesians says to imitate Christ
Then why do you look so much like the world?

Cause my Jesus bled and died
He spent His time with thieves and liars
He loved the poor and accosted the arrogant
So which one do you want to be?

Blessed are the poor in spirit
Or do we pray to be blessed with the wealth of this land
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness
Or do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting sand

Cause my Jesus bled and died for my sins
He spent His time with thieves and sluts and liars
He loved the poor and accosted the rich
So which one do you want to be?

Who is this that you follow
This picture of the American dream
If Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other side or fall down and worship at His holy feet

Pretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexion
Is how you see Him as He dies for Your sins
But the Word says He was battered and scarred
Or did you miss that part
Sometimes I doubt we'd recognize Him

Cause my Jesus bled and died
He spent His time with thieves and the least of these
He loved the poor and accosted the comfortable
So which one do you want to be?

Cause my Jesus would never be accepted in my church
The blood and dirt on His feet would stain the carpet
But He reaches for the hurting and despised the proud
I think He'd prefer Beale St. to the stained glass crowd
And I know that He can hear me if I cry out loud

I want to be like my Jesus!
I want to be like my Jesus!

Not a posterchild for American prosperity, but like my Jesus
You see I'm tired of living for success and popularity
I want to be like my Jesus but I'm not sure what that means to be like You Jesus
Cause You said to live like You, love like You but then You died for me
Can I be like You Jesus?
I want to be like my Jesus


No apologies for my faith guys! Its what keeps me going through my dark days which some of you already know about. Its called My Jesus and is by Todd Agnew. Have a listen :-

George Micheals WHAM! LOL

I'm Gonna Win - Foreigner
Another dark night, in the city
And my prospects lookin' thin
The survival, of the fittest
Is the law, in the world that I live in

I was not born, to be a fighter
But now's the time I have to learn
To keep my head, above the water
Gotta play with fire, but not get burned

I gotta stand up, I gotta face it
Don't want to lose it
I want to taste it while it's hot
Don't want to waste it, I need it so bad

I'm gonna win, yeah
I'm gonna win
You see it's a matter of pride
Deep down inside
I'm gonna win, yeah
I'm gonna win

I got no time, to sit and wonder
I got myself, to reckon with
Yeah and life won't drag me under
Even if it takes, all I have to give
I'll give it all

I gotta stand up, I gotta face it
Don't want to lose it
Ooh I want to taste it while it's hot
Don't want to waste it, my mind's made up

I'm gonna win
I'm gonna win
I tell you, see when it comes down to the crunch
I've gotta beat life to the punch
I'm gonna win
Somehow I know I'm gonna win
You know
I've got to fight to stay alive
Kick it in to overdrive
I'm gonna win, ooh, ooh, ooh
I'm gonna win

I'm gonna win
I'm gonna win
You see it's a matter of pride
Deep down inside
I'm gonna win
Gonna win, gonna win
Ooh, I'll pay the price
Gonna win
No more Mr. Nice
Gonna win
Hey, just watch me roll the dice
I'm gonna win, win, win
I'm gonna win, win, gonna win
I'm gonna win
I know I'm gonna win
