Top 10 Songs that Describe You Best

For me it's a balance between lyrics and music. I mean, some song lyrics describe me better but I don't like the music and I can't say they describe me in the best way.

But you can add any songs that describe you best - either their lyrics or music, or both.
The Top Ten
It's My Life - Bon Jovi

This song best describes my best friend, Karen, who died before she even reached 18.

"It's my life, and it's now or never. I ain't gonna live forever. I just wanna live while I'm alive."

She was reckless, fearless, beautiful, exciting, strong-minded, and always smiling. I play this song loudly every anniversary of her death. My best friend and the song which describes her so perfectly.

I still love you, Karen.

One of the biggest 2000s rebellion songs and also one of the most badass modern rock songs by a classic artist.

Wherever I May Roam - Metallica

Call me what you will,
But I'll take my time anywhere.
I'm free to speak my mind anywhere.

Path of Glory - Demons & Wizards
Highway Star - Deep Purple

I love speed, including fast songs, which is one of the reasons I adore metal music.
"Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground.
Nobody gonna beat my car.
It's gonna break the speed of sound."

We Can Work It Out - The Beatles

I'm generally someone who can accept differences and try to get along with everybody, or simply avoid conflict.

Keep the Faith - Bon Jovi

This is actually on my list of songs that describe me because I tend to "keep the faith."

My Way - Frank Sinatra

I don't often go with the crowd, if at all. I do it my way, whatever "it" may be.

The Bard's Song (In the Forest) - Blind Guardian

"In my thoughts and in my dreams
They're always in my mind
These songs of hobbits, dwarves, and men
And elves
Come close your eyes
You can see them too."

I would say this because Blind Guardian songs take me to another place, and their songs are in my thoughts.

Rising Force - Yngwie

Thunder and sparks in the heart of the dark
I hear a rising force.
Searching my soul, I find something else.
I take my life in my hands.
From the gates of Heaven to the altars of Hell,
The power is at my command.

Learning How to Fall - Jon Bon Jovi

You could say I've been doing this since I was four.

The Newcomers

? Shut Up - Simple Plan
? Living for Nothing - Dry Cell
The Contenders
I'm with You - Bon Jovi

The same basic reason for submitting "We Can Work It Out." I'm with you. I don't know an enemy. I dislike people, but that's different from being enemies.

Nothing Else Matters - Metallica

This is a love song. It's about the power of love. James Hetfield wrote the song while he was on the phone with his then-girlfriend. The lyrics, which talk about being "so close, no matter how far," indicate the bond they shared even when Hetfield was on tour.

Don't Stop Believin' - Journey

I love the message of this song: "Don't stop believing..." I haven't yet.

Yesterday - The Beatles

Another song that describes me. Not that things happened the same way for me, but I definitely said something wrong and long for yesterday (yesteryear, if I'm being honest).

Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath

"The world is full of kings and queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams.
It's Heaven and Hell, oh well.
And they'll tell you black is really white.
The moon is just the sun at night."

High Hopes - Pink Floyd
Under Pressure - Queen
The Measure of a Man - Elton John
Blaze of Glory - Jon Bon Jovi
Canadian Idiot - Weird Al Yankovic

To add some humor to this list.

Born This Way - Lady Gaga

I never felt like I fit in, so I cried when I first heard this song, and it gave me strength.

I Am a God - Kanye West
I Hate Myself and I Want to Die - Nirvana

Yep, that's me in a song title, especially today.

I'm a Loser - The Beatles

On bad days, I'm a loser. I also just like the song.

Fear of the Dark - Iron Maiden
