The Most Philosophical Song You Ever Heard
This may be a little too deeply personal for some, so reader discretion is advised. Don't know the reason, stayed here all season. Nothing to show but this brand new tattoo. But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie. How it got here I haven't a clue.
Blew out my flip-flop, stepped on a pop top, cut my heel had to cruise on back home. But there's booze in the blender and soon it will render that frozen concoction that helps me hang on.

Linkin Parks "One more light" is kind of philosophical. Does a life really matter? ---- If they say Who cares if one more light goes out? In a sky of a million stars It flickers, flickers Who cares when someone's time runs out? If a moment is all we are We're quicker, quicker Who cares if one more light goes out? Well I do |

+1 for 16 Tons, Like A Rolling Stone and These Days That's part of the beauty of the art, the interpertation is in the eyes of the beholder - and no interpertation is wrong Margaritaville is a great example, MC hears philosophy, waltersalas hears an addict coming to terms and I hear someone putting the events of their summer vaction into song I saw an interview with Keith RIchards and they asked him what song xyz123 was about (I cannot recall the specific song) and Keith asked him what does the song mean to you. The guy responded well it means blah blah blah and Keith said then that's what the song is about. Keith said it's much more meaningful when you can personalize it and what it means to each individual than me telling everyone what was on my mind when I wrote it - (something to that effect) Here's of few of my favorite lines and verses that speak to my heart and make me think Maybe tomorrow the good Lord take it away - Dream On by Aerosmith Lesson number one bettter learn while you're young Life just goes on and on getting harder and harder - Indian Girl by the Rolling Stones Oh yea life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone - Jack and Diane by John Mellencamp Poor man loves a rich man, envies his luxeries Rich man loves a poor man, envies his simplicity - Dance Part II by The Rolling Stones And, finally you have found someone perfect And, finally you have found Yourself - Hard To Concentrate by the RHCP Chilhood living is easy to do - Wild Horses by the Rolling Stones Happy listening and enjoy the journey |
Charles Aznavour’s Yesterday When I Was Young covered by Roy Clark amongst many others. "I ran so fast that time and youth at last ran out I never stopped to think what life was all about And every conversation I can now recall Concerned itself with me, me and nothing else at all" When it comes to philosophical surely Jacques Brel should always get a mention. The one that immediately comes to mind is the love it/loathe it UK smash hit Seasons in the Sun as recorded by Terry Jacks. Oh hang on, what about Leonard Cohen’s Chelsea Hotel? I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel You were famous, your heart was a legend You told me again, you preferred handsome men But for me you would make an exception And clenching your fist for the ones like us Who are oppressed by the figures of beauty You fixed yourself, you said "Well nevermind We are ugly but we have the music" Or Lou Reed’s Pale Blue Eyes? Skip a life completely. Stuff it in a cup. She said, Money is like us in time, It lies, but can’t stand up. Down for you is up." |
The Bruces’ Philosophers song from Monty Python. ”Immanuel Kant was a real pissant Who was very rarely stable Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar Who could think you under the table David Hume could out-consume Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel And Wittgenstein was a beery swine Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel There’s nothing Nietzche couldn’t teach ya ’Bout the raising of the wrist Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed John Stuart Mill, of his own free will On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill Plato, they say, could stick it away Half a crate of whiskey every day Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle, Hobbes was fond of his dram And René Descartes was a drunken fart "I drink, therefore I am" Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed A lovely little thinker But a bugger when he’s pissed” On a different level I’m rather fond of Who Knows Where the Time Goes by Sandy Denny |
1. The Who, "I'm One." For a 16-year-old struggling with everything 16-year-olds go through, a perfect song. 2. Those great lines from "Under Pressure," including the cry from Freddie, "Why can't we give love/One more chance. . ." Such an old fashioned word . . . Dares you to too much. 3. U2, "Until the End of the World." Judas talking to Jesus, challenging his apocalypticism. "So Cruel" from the same album. Heck, "One" has some great lines, and a great premise. And from "The Fly": "They say the sun is sometimes/Eclipsed by the moon/I don't see you/When she walks into the room." |
