Theme Song To Your Life?
After the popularity of the Greatest Solo thread I thought I would try this one out.
What songs would you choose as the theme song to your life?
Not exclusively blues but I would presume most peoples would be along those lines on this forum.
I think a limit of two per person makes it a sensible post.
Here are my two and reasons why.
Steve Gaines - One In The Sun (Of Lynyrd Skynyrd)
The lyrics of this song have always meant a lot to me, i've struggled with a lot of personal problems (who hasn't) and this song has always seemed to mirror my frustrations in life.
A truly great song written before he joined Lynyrd Skynyrd and its a shame we never got to hear more from his obvious talent.

John Mayer - Stop This Train
My second choice is by the wise and talented John Mayer, again chosen because of the lyrics. I have a great fear of growing older and my loved ones no longer being around so this song has always portrayed that in such a beautiful way to me.

I look forward to hearing all of yours.

No theme song for my life, but when I fall off my perch, I want 'While my guitar gently weeps', with George Harrison playing the lead
There would be different themes for different periods of my 64 years (Blues, Rock, Jazz). For now let's say Mark Knopfler's 'Brothers in Arms'.

"Big Bill Broonzy, a white boy's inspiration" (1963), and the Blues ever since.

Great idea
My friends have always told me this reminds them of me;
U_gz2yj_MeA
But personally I'd choose this;
6ombnqWR3eA
I'm very laid-back

Great idea. I'll give my second choice a bit of thought but for number one, Nowhere Man.
In the name of God, Eric Clapton and the Slowhand, Amen.

Re: Theme Song To Your Life?

Since each period of my life always has a different impact in terms of music.
Now that I have started playing the guitar I'm a fan of Gary Moore, but that does not say that I find other worse.

But alone in the crowd of HBL can I find one of the better songs thats in my mp3 player.
I also found a song on youtube that attentiond my, Home by Michael Bublè, because i learning in my lessonbook the jazzy way of playing, i was looking on youtube to learn more about the ladder theye use.
I found this one and i liked it.

If you put in the part of the YouTube reference that is after the = sign.2WheelsOfBlues wrote:what do i rong the youtube links doesn't work
So, for example, "On5372UztI0" instead of "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On5372UztI0"

Re: Theme Song To Your Life?
There were many times I feared that this was my song - then I met Sandra:-

Strange how someone now so obsessed with guitar should have been so in tune with the music of a group with no guitarist.
I know of no song joyful enough to do justice to the quality of my life "post-Sandra". Though i fear the way life tends to balance things out over time.

These last few years, this one pretty much wraps it up...

This isn't really a shameless plug... this is the only version I have access to at the moment.
I am having trouble getting the soundclick widget to work. I must not be copying and pasting right.
