Jack The Ripper used to be physically painful to listen to due to the shit tied to it. Which is, for those who don't know, when I was first with Oli I once cheated on him and felt so bad that I broke up with him. I listened to AFI's cover of JtR on loop whilst doing so. hence, when we got back together I found it very difficult to listen to. Seriously. It dragged me so far down one time that I sat talking to someone about how stupid self harm was with a key digging into the palm of my hand because I needed the pain. I have never told anyone that so I apologise if it sounds attention seeking or anything similar. I listened to it on loop that night, and had a terrible day the next day.
Something About Us, by Daft Punk, made me feel something deep down. It's because I relate it entirely to Jack because it states our feelings towards each other completely. Well almost completely, due to our degrees =p (not that anyone will understand that). So now I listen to that song an awful lot and the lyrics make me feel the same thing every time.
Faction, by Less Than Jake, was exactly right when I needed it: when I got very very angry and took it all out in a rant to Millie and Jack, then went out and ran along Old Shoreham road for no particular reason with it playing really loud in my ears. It was right then and sometimes it's right again.
As I've discovered today, Muse's old stuff - Origin Of Symetry especially - makes me feel brilliant. It makes me feel like stretching and releasing all the crap I'm thinking, feeling, or over-bereaving. (I only said that cos it rhymes, but wh'ever).
Now I want to write something else, so will go do that.
