5 songs that changed my life

I live for Green Day. I love them. I want to be Billie Joe with breasts lol...and I would give anything for just being in their presence for five minutes. But they are not my life. But some of their music has definitely hit me, as well as some others. This is a really hard thing to choose. Just five songs. But I thought about it....

1.Waiting- Green Day. Yes I want to be something someday, whether it's small or not, I will end up doing something for myself that is for myself as well as for the world. And this song makes me remember that I'm not the queen of the world, but I can still make something of myself

2. Bittersweet Symphony-The Verve. This will be my funeral song and damn it, everyone there will sit through the whole song. The first time I heard it, I got shivers, and I think I cried. I can't remember why. But it was a song that got me. Why should money be everything, but damn if it's not true...

3. Ana's Song(Open Fire)-Silverchair. At a point in my life where I was worried about my weight, i had to keep fighting to stop myself from doing something stupid. I am not skinny, nor do I think I ever will be, but knowing that if I wanted to, I could be the shape that i want to be with a little hard work and a little discipline. I do not ever want to have an eating disorder, and I hope that anyone who does will get help and remember that it is not the end of the world to look like you have meat on your bones. It makes you look alive. And this song reminds me of that all the time...

4. Jesus of Suburbia-Green Day. Damn if I don't play this song all the time whether at home or in my head. I love it. Five songs in one and they all sound so bloody good. I'm a writer, and I love a good story and this 9 minute peice told a pretty good story to me.

and finally, 5. Prisoner of Society-The Living End. I was far too young to realise that this song was about teenage oppression really. But I was old enough to know that I hated my parents telling me what to do....or anyone, but I would swallow my pride and do it. To this day, I still really hate being told what to do, and listening to this makes me feel better....plus the song makes me wanna get up and mosh in my room on my own lol.

So that's it. my five life songs. I love so many others, but these five have been with me for quite a while...and maybe later, there will be more that could make their way into this list, but for now...my life is good from these...
