everyone has that song that is their song, whether it like describes them or they feel a deep connection with it, constantly insist on playing it at parties or listen to it on public transport to evoke special feelings, you know what i mean. I love asking people this question, I feel like it says a lot about them.

what are yours anons?

I'll post mine:

I'm such a slut for music I don't think I could ever answer this question with just one song aaaagh. one song that comes to mind that I've loved since I was little is Ocean Man by Ween which is basically a meme at this point which makes me sad because it makes me happy and reminds me of childhood. This Land by Hans Zimmer is the same way, I can't listen to it without crying, it sounds like the feeling of seeing an old friend.

Kind of meme-y now, but it's my all time favorite and makes me feel incredibly cozy, always giving me an ethereal vibe. Good dreamlike feels attached to this song even through hard times.

No. 190107

My favourite song, I feel really connected to it even tho the lyrics aren't really deep or anything, I just love it so much it always puts me a good mood (I fucking love anything circus related), its 5 minutes long but I wish I would never finish; I kind of want it to play at my funeral lmao

Plus I really do feel like it'smy' song bc everyone I show it to hates it and turns it off straight away, but I feel like you would never understand my tastes as a person until you listen to it all the through

No. 190108

If by "your song" you mean a piece of music that makes me tear up as soon as I hear the first cords, it's this one.
I swear I turn into a sobbing mess when I really listen to it. I'm 17 again, I'm still not over this love that never quite was, this experience, the realization that my youth is over and I have missed my chance. And there's no way to turn back the time.

No. 190109

It's a very recent song, but something about Nick Cave's vocals, his lyrics and the instrumentation is very eerie, yet powerful

No. 190110

I have more than one "my" song, but of them this is probably my favourite.

It super tough to find a song that I feel like it describes me.

I wouldn't play this at parties but Id think some songs that might describe me are:

I forgot about Swim and Sleep, I haven't heard that song in years!

No. 190256

I genuinely can't tell if people are serious or not? Do people genuinely listen to this hipster/experimental music on the bus? At parties? Is this kind of uninspiring, depressing music what makes you feel happy?

I can't say I have "a song" because I get bored of them when I overplay them. The songs that make me feel the most are generally from my childhood (i.e. 90s pop, r&b)

No. 190261

>>190256
>At parties?
That was just one of OP's criteria, I don't think most of the anons in the thread are requesting these songs at parties.

>Is this kind of uninspiring, depressing music what makes you feel happy?

The songs I identify with the most aren't the ones that make me feel happy honestly.

No. 190264

>>190261
That makes sense. Maybe it says something about me that I'm only into upbeat music.

But where do people even find hipster music like this? In the bg of films? All of my music is very mainstream as I'm not really interested in a song unless it's attached to a memory.

No. 190265

>>190264
Cant speak for anyoone else, but for me its just going through the sidebar on youtube or randomly clicking on stuff in soundcloud.

I dislike being told to listen to whatevers popular, I like finding my own, but it means there's a ton of junk to wade through.

I do sometimes find music from films, since I watch a ton of movies. I also like clicking around on soundcloud and youtube like >>190265 said. Also Spotify has a Discover Weekly playlist with songs curated to your taste that updates every week, I discover some music from that. AND I browse suggestion threads on image boards and reddit and other forums. Basically I'm just obsessed with music.

word of mouth, social media, and youtube. and it really says a lot about you that you're just calling everything itt "hipster". sorry we dont all enjoy listening to britney spears and imagine dragons 24/7. some of us are interested in the many genres that music has to offer. grow up.

No. 190276

>>190275
not everyone uses "hipster" as a pejorative, just a general term for music that isn't mainstream. you're kind of coming off more immature than the anon you were replying to.

>just a general term for music that isn't mainstream
which is childish and ignorant in itself.

not sure how grow up comes off as immature but whatever. if you're referring to the britney spears thing, she said she likes to listen to mainstream 90s pop so it wasn't a dig at all. relax.

This song reminds me of being a child so it just makes me feel happy. No matter what age I will always love this song. (Moloko are actually a decent band even though this was their biggest hit).

The fact that it is written and performed by someone that is able to play the violin as others play a cello just adds to it.

I'd say this song just marks a milestone in my life. It always makes me feel all sorts of things.
but I don't think its my song. I have too many songs like those. this one just marks the reality instead of my emotions.

This has been my song for a few years now but I try not to play it when other people are around. I've mostly listened to extreme metal for the last decade so everyone I know likes to act surprised and give me weird looks when I mention that I like other styles of music
