I havent heard much of his tuff, but I am a big rock fan. I'm 22 and in the past couple of years I've been getting into classic rock. I like Clapton, Creedence, Aerosmith, Hendrix, Simon & Garfunkel, The doors, and the eagles. Which Db tracks should I check out first? What else do you listen to?

For some reason Music threads are not very popular around here, and I always thought that music was a big thing among SAD'ers...


american woman stay away from meeeeeeeeeeeeee
american woman mamma let me beeeeeeeeeee on yeah, I also like the guess who?????????

Thankyou for replying I am suprised that music is not a hot topic on this site. I know that for me David Bowie's music has been very important over the 30 years I have been a fan. I think this is because his music gives a sense of isolation and I know that he has admitted to being very shy in the early days of his career. as to what stuff you might like by him I allways find it difficult to say because music is such as personal thing what I enjoy others may not but anyway here are the cds I play a lot by him

1 Hunky Dory 1972

2 Ziggy Stardust (My user name is taken from one of the songs on
this cd)

3 Alladin Sane 1974

4 Hours

5 Heathen 2002

6 Reality 2003

I also listen to classical music and various radio stations
I like The Beatles some folk music and some country and westen but most my cd's are db or classical

Hi Ladystardust. If you like Bowie because he was shy you will probably love the music of the Smiths. Their lead singer Morrissey is an SP sufferer even though he is a handsome rockstar. He only has seven friends and most of them are in his band.

You should check out his solo stuff too. One of his early songs 'There is a light that never goes out' is a classic which you need to hear. Also you should get into Patti Smith who influenced Moz.

Bye

Well while we're on the subject of social anxiety music, I'll list some of mine.

I dont know if you guys know, but jim morrison had his back turned on the audience in his first concerts. Staind's music also talks a lot of things that sad'ers go through. And one of my favorites songs of all time "Letting the cables sleep" by bush, screams social anxiety. ............I know so many of them and right now I can't think of any.....oh yeah, "why" by stabbing westward.

Why by Stabbing Westward

I am not here I think I've never been here at all or ever will
I feel like a place where no one goes anymore
why can't you see that everythings broken
and why can't you see that my lifes turned grey
I can't believe in anything sacred
when I don't believe that I am real

I need someone to break the silence
screaming in my head and in my soul

it seems so bizarre but none of this matters
thoughts disappear and hopes have died
but now I am safe nothing can hurt me here
why can't you see my need for forgiveness
the truth and the lies so confued as one
I can't believe in anything sacred
when I don't believe in anything

I am alone locked in my memories
there's nowhere left for me to hide
but I am not real I've made all I am with lies
why does it seem that everythings different
and why does it seem that only you are real
I don't believe in anything sacred
so why do I feel so damn alone

I NEED SOMEONE TO BREAK THE SILENCE SCREAMING IN MY HEAD AND IN MY SOUL

Letting The Cables Sleep by Bush

you in the dark you in the pain :: you on the run :: living a hell living your ghost :: living your end :: never seem to get in the place :: that i belong :: don't want to lose the time :: lose the time to come

whatever you say it's alright :: whatever you do it's all good :: whatever you say it's alright :: silence is not the way :: we need to talk about it :: if heaven is on the way

you in the sea on a decline :: breaking the waves :: watching the lights go down :: letting the cables sleep

silence is not the way :: we need to talk about it :: if heaven is on the way :: we'll wrap the world around it :: if heaven is on the way

i'm a stranger in this town :: i'm a stranger in this town

Far Behind: Candlebox
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And now maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And so maybe
Your friends they stand around to watch you crumble
As you falter to the ground
And then someday
Your friends they stand beside as you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high
But then some day people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no
Couldn't share the pain they watch you suffer
Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
Then maybe we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life
So soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't meant to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
Oh, but you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no
No, No
Oh No, No, No
I'm alone
I know
I know
But maybe
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
No maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hold you down
Hold you down
Maybe brother maybe love I didn't mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind

When you were here before

Couldn't look you in the eye

You're just like an angel

Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather

In a beautiful world

I wish I was special

You're so fucking special


But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here


I don't care if it hurts

I want to have control

I want a perfect body

I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice when I'm not around

You're so fucking special

I wish I was special


But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell I'm doing here?

I don't belong here


She's running out again

She's running out

She runs runs runs


Whatever makes you happy

Whatever you want

You're so fucking special

I wish I was special


But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here

I don't belong here


-RADIOHEAD "creep"

If you could see my mind, if you really look deep, then maybe you'll find
That somewhere there will be a place, hidden behind my comedian face
You will find somewhere there's a house, and inside that house there's a room
Locked in the room in the corner you see
A voice is waiting for me, to set it free, I got the key, I got the key
Voices, I hear voices
In my head the voice is waiting, waiting for me to set it free
I locked it inside my imagination, but I'm the one who's got the combination
Some people didn't like what the voice did say
So I took the voice and I locked it away, I got the key, I got the key
Voices, I hear voices, voices, I hear voices
Chorus:
Don't look back, look straight ahead, don't turn away, then the voice it said
Don't look back, yesterday's gone, don't turn away, you can take it on
(Solo)
Voices, I hear voices, voices, I hear voices
(chorus repeats 3x)
Voices, voices, voices, voices - don't look back
Voices, voices
(chorus repeats 2x)...

THE VERVE LYRICS

"Bittersweet Symphony"

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah,

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change
I can't change

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
Try to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the things meet yeah

You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

I can't change my mold
no, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
no, no, no

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you've ever been down?

Ironman
by Black Sabbath

Album :
Submitted by :
Corrected by :


Has he lost his mind?, Can he see or is he blind
Can he walk at all? Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he live or dead? I see thoughts within his head.
We'll just pass him there. Why should we even care?

He was turned to steel in the great magnetic field!
When he traveled time for the future of Mankind.
Nobody wants him He just stares at the world.
Planning his vengeance that he will soon unfurl.
Now the time is here for ironman to spread fear.
Vengeance from the grave kills the people he once saved
Nobody wants him they just turn their heads.

Nobody helps him now he has his revenge.

Heavy boots of lead fills his victims full of dread.
running as fast as they can Ironman lives again.
