A lot of them, really, specially the whole "The Wall" album, but if I had to choose:

If
Brain Damage
Wish You Were Here
Mother
Empty Spaces
Hey You
Nobody Home
Comfortably Numb

Re: what song has the most meaning to you

arrgh, you guys are making me think

um, on an emotional basis, the songs that really get me are:

wish you were here
the final cut
one slip
learning to fly
nobody home
what do you want from me
coming back to life
lost for words

Re: what song has the most meaning to you

moslty every song, save a few. but the division bell is the most important to me, as well as the wall. for a while i couldnt listen to either, for reasons that are unimportant now.

Re: what song has the most meaning to you

For me the songs with most meaning to me are the ones that are related to my life:

first of all, my favourite song:

Time: first of all it means a lot to me because it was my intro to PF. Then: who doesn't worry about dead? well i'm not an exception, and to say the truth it really concerns me. I'm only about to turn 16, what do I really know about life? only few but true things. It's short (..shorter of breath and one day closer to death.. Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time ). Everybody gets hurt. So many lives wasted (You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way...And then one day you find ten years have got behind you).


In my life - Beatles: This song always reminds me of my friends that i actually have and how good they're to me (sometimes not really) and how much i love them, and it also reminds me of all the ones that have "disappeared" from my life. Its really sad. Some have gone to live somwhere else, some have just lost interest as me, and with other we've end up with a fight. Luckily no one has gone, we're still young.

Re: what song has the most meaning to you

Most songs have lots of meaning to me.

Lately "Creep" by Radiohead has pinpointed EXACTLY how I feel. Not necessarily towards a girl, but just more towards society in general.

Let's just say, I feel very rejected...by everything

Re: what song has the most meaning to you

I've always found the lyrics to 'the Laughing Policeman' deeply moving

'I know a fat old policeman
He's always on our street.
A fat and jolly red-faced man
He really is a treat.

He's too kind for a policeman
He's never known to frown.
And everybody says
He is the happiest man in town!.

He laughs upon point duty
He laughs upon his beat.
He laughs at everybody
When he's walking in the street.

He never can stop laughing
He says he's never tried.
But once he did arrest a man
And laughed until he cried!

Oh ho ho ho ho ho ho. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. '

I think it reminds me of what a jolly lot our policemen ( and women) are. They are always bedecked with a happy smile and ready wit.

Re: what song has the most meaning to you

I've always found the lyrics to 'the Laughing Gnome' by David Bowie deeply moving

'I was walking down the High Street
When I heard footsteps behind me
And there was a little old man (Hello)
In scarlet and grey, shuffling away (laughter)
Well he trotted back to my house
And he sat beside the telly (Oaah..)
With his tiny hands on his tummy
Chuckling away, laughing all day (laughter)

Oh, I ought to report you to the Gnome office
(Gnome Office)
Yes
(Hahahahaha)

Ha ha ha, hee hee hee
"I'm a laughing Gnome and you don't catch me"
Ha ha ha, hee hee hee
"I'm a laughing Gnome and you can't catch me"
Said the laughing Gnome'

It always reminds me what a jolly slippery lot gnomes are, and that they are not content with just sitting sedately in the gardens of the rich and famous.
