Sum up your year in a song! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

MeganS · 12-31-2007, 11:27 AM

Last year we had a thread like this.

Since today is the last day of 2007, I figured it was a good time to post it.

Music tells a lot of stories and we all have different ways of connecting with it. If you had to describe your year using one song, what song would it be?

I'm still thinking about mine.

Suzy · 12-31-2007, 11:30 AM

Hmmm great thread idea...I gotta think, but I'll be sure to come back to this one!

LunasMomma · 12-31-2007, 11:37 AM

I don't think I have the song title right, but it's a Mary J. Blige song, I think it's called "No More Drama"? That fits me to a t, I've had decided this past year to not let anyone suck me into their drama anymore

MeganS · 12-31-2007, 12:05 PM

^Love that song!

So I thought about this for a while. and thinking over the past year, I think my song would be "You'll Never Walk Alone" from Carousel.

YouTube - Stephanie J. Block ~ You'll Never Walk...

Yeah.

unwritten by natasha bettingfield, i think its her anyway

i had a lot of new career opportunities come my way so that is my song for the year

teri88 · 12-31-2007, 02:22 PM

hmmm, does anyone know a song about:
Going through extreme changes, but it all works out and you are just glad you still have your family and friends? That would be my song. (If there isn't one already, I'll just have to write it myself!)

BrunoReggiemom · 12-31-2007, 02:41 PM

hmm... i would have to say No One by Alicia Keys.
I have a really wonderful guy in my life and we've been together for almost two years but I know I have gotten to be a real pain in the butt recently because I am taking my CPA trying to stay in good running shape and trying to still have the social life of a 24 yr old. Still though he is consistently sweet and helps out a lot and he is a real keeper.. it does not hurt that he bought me my second yorkie for Christmas

I always tell my friends to kick me if I screw it up because I'd be a total idiot - I RUFF him

MIZBROWN · 12-31-2007, 02:53 PM

Well, this year was a great year... full of many ups and downs, but by far, my biggest up in 2007 was my little Meka

I love my little furbaby and my life...

Which brings me to say that Mary J. Blidges new song "JUST FINE" is my new anthem for 07' & 08"... the chorus: "I wont change my life, my life's JUST FINE" sums up who I am and what Im about.

I love my life... I am 27, a mother of a 5 yr old and I've been a wife for 10 yrs now. I didnt go to college, I have a good job, dont drive a new car, etc, etc...... And sometimes society can really put a LABEL on what your suppose to be, suppose to have or even what your suppose to look like! But, cha know what, it doesnt matter and I dont care. Im proud of my accomplishments and quite frankly - MY LIFE'S JUST FINE

BrunoReggiemom · 12-31-2007, 02:57 PM

great post mizbrown and your life sounds wonderful!
i dont drive a new car, have a big home etc.. etc.. and i did go to college but i am wondering when it will be worth it at what the damn payments for my loans are at right now.. its sick.. what is most important to me is my family, friends, and being what I consider a decent person with integrity.. cant buy integrity..

great song choice too i love mary j

Mom2BabyNatalie · 12-31-2007, 07:08 PM

Superstarkba · 12-31-2007, 07:12 PM

Mine is "Praise you in this storm" by Casting Crowns.

troubletb · 12-31-2007, 07:32 PM

Another one bites the dust! I'm not sure of the name of this song, but I know this lines is in it so where! LOL

red98vett · 12-31-2007, 07:42 PM

Oh man Megan. I saw this earlier but the song just came to me....it's sad though and I don't want to be depressing but the song would be -

'On my Own' by Michale McDonald / Patti La Belle - it's reduced me to crying when I'm driving and I seem to hear it all the time since my husband died...it isn't about death but divorce but the point of loss is there....

it sums up my Song for the year...I think most people would know the song but here are the lyrics - they're beautiful

I'm on my own
Why did it end this way
On my own
This wasn't how it was supposed to be
On my own
I wish that we could do it all again

So many times
I know I should have told you
Losing you it cut like a knife
You walked out and there went my life
I don't want to live without you
On my own

This wasn't how it was supposed to end
I wish that we could do it all again
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone

On my own, I've got to find where I belong again
I've got to learn how to be strong again
I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone
By myself by myself
I've got to find out what was mine again
My heart is saying that it's my time again
And I have faith that I will shine again
I have faith in me
On my own
On my own
On my own

BrendaS54 · 12-31-2007, 08:55 PM

My song is by willie Nelson "Went to bed at 2 with a 10, and woke up at 10 with a 2!! haha.. the way the year of 2007 has been..I never know what I am going to wake up with.. Hurting or not sleeping and what the day will bring!

journey826 · 12-31-2007, 10:00 PM
