Discussion Thread: My Song

You know how sometimes you hear a song, and you listen to the lyrics for the first time—which is maybe not even necessarily the first time you heard and enjoyed the song, but definitely the first time you really paid attention to the lyrics—and suddenly you're all, "OMG THIS SONG IS ABOUT ME!" by which you don't actually mean the song was written about you, individual human being, but that it feels like it could have been written about you, individual human being, because you relate so darn hard to those lyrics? Do you know that feeling? If you don't, skip this thread with my apologies that this does not have relevance to your life.

But if you DO know that feeling, then tell us: What is that song, or are those songs, for you?
