For me it’s “We won’t be a alone” by Feint feat. Laura Brehm. I just have nostalgia attached to it and it brings back some nice summer memories.
This post is also for song recommendations since I listen to the same songs for years and I guess I wanna hear something new.
Edit: grammar mistake corrections
Specifically this performance of Danny Nedelko by Idles: https://piped.video/watch?v=Sc63fTPttEQ
It’s a song about how immigrants are normal people with thoughts and feelings, our friends and family and so on, released when an anti-immigration sentiment was completely mainstream, but also just as Corbyn was becoming popular, and the singer’s belting it out despite being knackered, and the crowd’s belting it back, until he falls down crying because everyone’s onside with his song he’d written about friendship and love, and the guitarist takes over without a second thought, and his wife comes out with their baby in a papoose to kiss him… I’m getting a lump in my throat just describing it.
Thank you, I didn’t know the song and I am deeply moved by it ❤️

If “Cat’s In The Cradle” doesn’t get you, you are not a father.
Fun fact, the origin of that nursery rhyme is unknown. The earliest source I can find is this Dutch “Cat and the Cradle” story:

Ugly Kid Joe - Cats in the Cradle
I’m currently re-aligning my entire life with the goal of not becoming the dad in this song.
Originally from Harry Chapin.
Part of this song is about how fast life goes by, not just the dad not being there. Sad to say you can’t fix that.
I actually don’t have much of a problem with that.
If I die tomorrow, I’ll have a smile on my face knowing I’ve lived well.
On the other hand I’m still looking forward cause life keeps getting better.
Halo intro sound track.
My buddy played this at his wedding last weekend 😁
Whenever I hear Baby Shark, I get very emotional.

NiN - Hurt.
Simon and Garfunkel - Sound of Silence.
It’s interesting how original Hurt by NiN has very different vibes than its cover by Johnny Cash. It’s like it’s different song, but still the same. Both deep, just different.
The best way I can describe the emotional difference is that Reznor’s version depicts ruinous destruction of a young person’s life, and Cash’s version depicts a lifetime of regret. Their literal ages obviously help convey it, but the arrangement and style really sell it
Yeah, the original always hit me harder but both are very emotional. I think it’s also to do with the orchestration.
Disturbed’s cover of the sound of silence is profoundly better than the original; I highly suggest you check it out
Have you seen the Disturbed covid video of Sound of Silence? Makes me cry every fucking time!
I did and I don’t think I liked it for some reason, but it’s been such a long time I can’t clearly recall.
Pink Floyd - High Hopes
Last Kiss by Pearl Jam
Long time Nine inch nails fan. Love everything he’s done.
Hear Johnny Cash do Hurt.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Yeah that song hits quite hard
I didn’t know it by name, but it’s an iconic classic. I immediately recognized it.

Oh man. That song is all the feels. Even Trent Reznor said Johnny did it better.
I have so many, but today I was listening to the radio and was really getting into Elton John’s “I’m Still Standing”, Heart’s “Crazy On You”, and Peter Schilling’s “Major Tom”. It was truly a good day on the radio.

The Other Side by Public Service Broadcasting really drew me in the first time I listened to it.
Also Open Your Eyes by Snow Patrol gives me the feels for some reason.
The Other Side just hits right in the good parts of humanity. I just can’t help but be amazed that humans did that whenever I listen to that song.
