Okay, I've tried to be patient and wait for somebody else to start a song thread. I've got the itch. This could be about people in general but maybe a little more specifically about the human condition. There are things that make us different, but there are things that make us the same as well.

I'll start with this one. She's had several new songs released this year that I didn't even know about until a couple days ago. She simplified her stage name from Marina and the Diamonds to just MARINA, so maybe that's why I missed it. Anyway I think this is beautiful and bittersweet.

Oops, I forgot to label this OT. Can a mod edit the thread subject line?

This started rattling around in some dusty corner of my mind, couldn't even remember who sings it but the chorus was resonating.

No words to this one , and it’s just a brief movie theme, but to me it still speaks to the struggle that is the human condition...



I know words have been set to this music but I prefer this version !

A lot of people thought too hard about this. I just wanted to know where he got his feathered jacket. Catchy.

I almost started one yesterday afternoon, then I got distracted onto something else...!

Here's a Beatles song that I've always adored - love George Harrison's reverse guitar solo:

I preferred Sonny Fox, but this is about the song...
