Remember that song or songs that played on the radio the years you were in your mid teens that reminded you that you're alone and will probably be alone for the foreseeable future?

This was one of my big ones.

can it just be a song that is romantic and made you wish you were in a relationship?
konstantine by Something corporate is a great one.
the song is crazy long like 9 minutes but it will the best 9 minutes of your life!

I don't make the rules. If it speaks toward unrequited love, it's fair game.

Thick as a Brick has been a favorite of mine for years-the older I get I find new meaning and new sounds in Jethro Tull's masterpiece. No other work of art has ever been so applicable to my own psychosexual development and growing up process in general. I will never abandon this song-it is the tune which plays in my heart of hearts from now until the day I break down and cry.

Getting sicker with every new cure
Clearcutting today to secure tomorrow
Fleeing a grief beyond sorrow
Avoiding death by deadening ourselves
Not seeing beneath our herdprints
The crushed yet leafy reach of another us
Divided we stand calling for peace
Reducing love to an ideal
Chaining attention to mindchatter
Pilgrims at the crossroads are we
Stuck in well-educated knots & fashionable headlocks
The sky opening for us is but the ceiling
Of our loftiest thought
Pilgrims at the crossroads are we
Missing what is more secure than security
More moral than morality
More significant than meaning
Fear’s the threshold
And even the ticket Home
When we hold the dragon’s heart
