What is your favorite song??

Maybe I'm Amazed (1976) by Paul McCartney and Wings.

Most of my favourite songs are from that era.

"I Keep Myself to Myself" by The Boy Least Likely To

I keep myself to myself and no one else
Knows how it feels to be me and I'm all by myself
I've got a tick and a twitch for everything
The world is made up of boxes that I don't fit in

Sometimes when I look up
at the stars I feel so alone
because I know that no one can ever
See the world the same way that I do

I am afraid of falling in love so
I keep myself to myself
I want a cookie and I need a hug
but I keep myself to myself

I keep myself to myself
and when I'm sad
I comfort myself with thinking
that no one understands

Sometimes I dig through the shells
at a low tide I wonder if anything
fragile could ever survive
in this world without getting broken

I am afraid of things that can hurt
so I keep myself to myself
I feel completely alone in the world
and I keep myself to myself, to myself

And so wherever I go
I wear my heart uncomfortably on my sleeve

I put my elbows up over my ears
and I keep myself to myself
I close my eyes and the world disappears
and I keep myself to myself

I'll never be lonely when I am alone
and I keep myself to myself
I live in a little world of my own
and I keep myself to myself, to myself

I keep myself to myself
I keep myself to myself, to myself

Here is a deep song. Coincidentally, John Lennon wrote this in December 1970, when he was exactly my current age, 30 years and 2 months old.

God (1970) by John Lennon

God is a concept
By which we measure
Our pain
I'll say it again
God is a concept
By which we measure
Our pain

I don't believe in magic
I don't believe in I-Ching
I don't believe in Bible
I don't believe in tarot
I don't believe in Hitler
I don't believe in Jesus
I don't believe in Kennedy
I don't believe in Buddha
I don't believe in mantra
I don't believe in Gita
I don't believe in yoga
I don't believe in kings
I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Zimmerman
I don't believe in Beatles

I just believe in me

Blackout, Ruston Kelly

Hello again. How have you been? you never seem to have much to say.
I’ve been awake for a week and tried not to sleep and you drain every little bit of me away.
And you know i ain’t doing too well but I found a few things that help.
I blackout in a bar, get high in my car, I drive round in circles till I’m seeing stars. I get so $&%ked up to forget who you are. I dumb down my head so I can’t feel my heart...pound,
and blackout.
I fake it through the day, That I ain't suffocating
And argue around with my friends
And when I polish off a handle
I laugh and I ramble
About anything other than what I been holding in
And most of the time it hurts
But I've found a few things that work
I black out, black out.
