A song to express your feelings

At this hour, I find myself particularly vulnerable because I am heavily sleep deprived, and my brain can't really process. I have been awake for 21 hours and 12 minutes straight after a string of nights of only a few hours' sleep. I don't feel well, nor do I feel sleepy. So, I am listening to the soundtrack of my life entitled "Walkabouts" and right now, the perfect song to describe what I am feeling (at least the chorus of it) is Madness by Muse. Has anyone ever felt like they could communicate more if they did it through the songs that already exist? I challenge us to have a conversation consisting of song quotes.

So, dedicated to my depression; here I go...

Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad...Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad....Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad...Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad...I, I can't get these memories ooout of my mind, and some kind of maaaadness has started to evolve. Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad...Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad... And I, I tried so hard to let you go-ooo, but some kind of maaaadness is swallowing me whole, yeah....Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad...Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mad mad mad...I have finally seen the light. And I have finally realized, what you mean....

Ooh oh oh

Fatboy Slim ft. Bootsy Collins - Weapon Of Choice

 

Actually a video with Christopher Walken. I use it to remind me abilities do not necessarily diminish with age:)

Misery Is the River of the World by Tom Waits

Although this song does show the problems and gritty side of life and that it applies to most people it is also a reminder we are united and not alone.

"Everybody Row!"

Elenor Rigby by the Beatles

Been listening to a lot of Gracie Abrams songs recently, as she's of a similar age to me and many of her experiences ring true (or have rung true) for me. I can't even really name a specific one, I like many of them. Maybe "Close to You" or "I Love You, I'm Sorry".
