Can you pick a song that sums you up as a person

[AceOfSpades]

As the title say Can you pick a song that sums you up as a person

I have always heard the following song and it always makes me sad and happy at the same time but it feels like it was written just for me...

A Heart That Beats aka Failure - Lee Evans

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhgsHvm-zvE

I’m adequately exceptional
I’m gradually professional
At being mentally deficient

I’m a shrewd as a sap
With an astute mental gap
Occasionally I can be consistent

I’m a fool I’m a flop I’m a failure
But you should never judge a book by its colour
Cos there’s a heart that beats inside of me

I’m an educational intellect
Quite exceptional in-fact perfect
At being the remedial class brainless dunce

I’m a success at losing
I’m obvious when confusing
I’m always asked for my opinion once

So I’m a fool I’m a flop I’m a failure
But you should never judge a book by its cover
Cos there’s a heart that beats inside of me

I’m a popular hit with the in crowd
A regular wit to be with and loud
I’m a busy active unsociable recluse

I’m an irresistible reject
With an formidable defect
Sexually I’m celibate not in use

I’m a fool, I’m a flop, I’m a failure
But you should never judge a book by its cover
Cos there’s a heart that beats inside of me
a heart that beats inside of me
a heart that beats inside of me

Undiscovered - James Morrison

"Undiscovered"


I look at you, you bite your tongue
You don't know why or where I'm coming from
But in my head I'm close to you
We're in the rain still searching for the sun

You think that I want to run and hide
That I keep it all locked up inside but I just want you to find me

I'm not lost; not lost, just undiscovered
And when we're alone we are all the same as each other

You see the look that's on my face
You might think I'm out of place
I'm not lost, no, no, just undiscovered

Well the time it takes to know someone
It all can change before you know it's gone
So close your eyes feel the way I'm with you now
Believe there's nothing wrong

You think that I wanna run and hide
I'll keep it all locked up inside
But I just want you to find me
I'm not lost, I'm not lost, just undiscovered
And when we're alone we're all the same as each other
You see the look that's on my face
You might think I'm out of place
I'm not lost, no, no, just undiscovered

I'm not running
I'm not hiding
If you dig a little deeper you will find me

I'm not lost, not lost, just undiscovered
And when we're alone we're all the same as each other
You see the look that's on my face, you might think that I'm out of place
I'm not lost, no, no, just undiscovered

I'm not lost, not lost, just undiscovered
And when we're alone we're all the same as each other
You see the look that's on my face, you might think that I'm out of place
I'm not lost, no, no, just undiscovered

The Long and Winding Road (is a very personal choice)

The long and winding road that leads to your door
Will never disappear
I've seen that road before it always leads me here
Leads me to your door

The wild and windy night that the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears crying for the day
Why leave me standing here, let me know the way
Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried
Anyway you'll never know the many ways I've tried
And still they lead me back to the long and winding road
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here, lead me to you door

But still they lead me back to the long and winding road
You left me standing here a long, long time ago
Don't keep me waiting here (Don't keep me wait), lead me to you door
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

My dad loved this song and he died 37 years ago today,never to be forgotten.

This sums me up, a very diverse and caring person.

What a lovely question and what a great thread

I'm loving all of your choices too

Ricardo that song is sooo beautiful, your Dad still lives in your heart

This is my choice

"Greatest Love Of All"

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

Everybody's searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
A lonely place to be
And so I learned to depend on me

[Chorus:]
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

[Chorus]

And if, by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love


It sums me up perfectly and all that I believe in too and when I leave this World, this is what I'm going out too
