What Song has influenced you the most in your life? - 10-09-02

For me it would have to be The Offspring-Gone Away. I wouldn't say it influenced me in a good way at all. It actually forced me to try and commit suicide. All in all, its an awesome song.

Tough one... I would probably say "Laguna Sunrise" by Black Sabbath. During a particularly bad time, I recorded an entire cassete with that song, over and over...and listened to it for days and days...it kept me going. Beautiful tune.

Oh, and hey there Pretty Lady, Vampy...

Ah, I basically did the same thing with that song, but it didn't have such a great outcome.

And Hello

That's a really tough question. My top nominees:

"Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode
"Creep" by Radiohead
"A Warm Place" by NIN (long story)

probably 'War Pigs', along with the rest of the 'Paranoid' album. I can remember listening to it when I was 6.

Hmmm...

I'd say Demon of the Fall by Opeth becuase it's the song that I finally got really comfortable performing infront of people with.

Either that or Blue Oyster cult's 'don't fear the reaper' becuase it was the first rock i'd ever listened to, I was like 4. After that my brother got me into Sabbath, RATM (back in 92-93 when they were still really really new), SNoop Dogg (please don't shoot me), and from there my interests went into manson, and I was really into him and he mentioned Ministry in his book, so i went and got some ministry, that's when I discovered Skinny Puppy and KMFDM. Of course I was gathering in other stuff at the time, like Fear Factory, The Cure, Neurosis, Nevermore, but it all kinda started with the Cult..and Sabbath I suppose.

hmmm...

NIN - Closer... i know its trite and cliche, but when i first heard it i was shocked and appalled... but then i listened to the lyrics and found very interesting conotations and inferances to life, love, self-actualization... so many issues.

i dont listen to the downward spiral much... perhaps once a month. ive moved on to The Fragile and use its love and sadness to explore my exisential dilemmas...

A lot of people do. I like the song "Papercut" and I think Mister Hahn is a really good DJ, but I don't like the band much at all.

and as I nudge this gently back to the toppic seeming as how i liked the original one...

The song that's influenced me most would probably be "That day" by poe. It made me realize i shouldn't always listen to other people.

(and Vudu Doll there was a thread about Linkin Park that you could drag up somewhere around here if you like it's prolly on the 2-4 page by now)

"hurt" by NIN. During a rough period I sat with my acoustic and sang/strummed that song for about an hour a night. Soothing.
