If you had to pick one song that defines you, or how you currently feel, or in whatever regard you want, really, what would it be?
For me I would definitely pick "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" by the Beach Boys. Specifically, I apply the lyrics to my social life. It's just fairly unsuccessful, even though I've made some attempts to make it more interesting.
I don't know if I really have one, but if I do, it would be Magazine's A Song From Under the Floorboards. My wife bought me a t-shirt with lyrics from the song printed on the front. I have adopted as my motto and paste it on my Facebook page at regular intervals.

I also think about that song myself, especially those days where I mostly hear music from the 60's and 70's.
If I had to choose a song that defined me, it would probably be Nowhere Man, especially the lyrics:
Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
When somebody asks me what I want to do after high school, I always answer: ¨What I want to do? Yes, that's the question!¨
So for now it can be: Everybody Hurts, R.E.M.
But you know I'm quite a manic-depressive, so you cannot really expect what I'd choose the next minute. _________________ I miss when we used to talk about science and philosophy and the deep conversations.

I really liked Remember Me back in the day I had the album for Christmas 2005
Remember The Name & Where'd You Go were great pop-rap songs. Along with Handlebars by the Flo Bots. I still think that those are great tracks, regardless of 'mainstream' status. _________________ ~Hayden
