what is the most meaningful song you've ever heard?

Answer 1

definitely the song by stevie wonder and babyface "How come, how long. here are the lyrics.

There was a girl I used to know
She was oh so beautiful
But she's not here anymore
She had a college degree
Smart as anyone could be
She had so much to live for
But she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
He abused her love and treated her so bad
There was not enough education in her world
That could save the life of this little girl

How come, how long
It's not right, it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for it's too late
Right now, we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help
She even blamed things on herself
But no one came to her aid
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
That's what we'd like to tell ourselves
But no, it wasn't that way
So she fell in love
With the wrong kinda man
And she paid with her life
For loving that man
So we cannot ignore,
We must look for the signs
And maybe next time we might save
somebody's life

How come, how long
It's not right, it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for it's too late
Right now, we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

I on occasion met that guy
It's been a feeling deep inside
Some ... wasn't right
The way he proves himself a man
By beating his woman with his hands
Oh I wish that she'd seen the light
How can someone like that call himself a man
He's not a man
Soon reality ...
And we cannot ignore
Whenever we see the signs
'Cause any kind of abuse
God knows, it's a crime

How come, how long
It's not right, it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for it's too late
Right now, we can't wait
She won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes



the reason why this song is the most meaningful song i've heard is because it raises awareness of those people who get into these types of situations and shows that if we can put a stop to it and tell someone about it that we could save someone's life. when i 1st heard this song, i cried because of how much this girl had to suffer over the man she loved and she had to pay with her life for loving that man. he took away everything from her and never really appreciated her or even really loved her, seeing as he treated her this way. i know this situation in the song is a true story that stevie wonder knew of, but even if it wasnt, it would still hav an impact because u know that there are people out there that go through this kinda thing and are too afraid to do something about it, and blame themself for what's happening. this song is and will remain the most meaningful song i've ever heard for years to come.

Answer 2

Ballad of Curtis Lowe by Lynyrrd Skynyrrd

Answer 3

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. It's so sad when you consider how Syd just couldn't perform any more after he screwed himself up with drugs. The whole album Wish You Were Here is pretty sad, to tell the truth. The coldness of the record industry combined with the sadness of losing their friend... it's so powerful.
