As most of you know I'm a rock or metal head. But is it strange to be conneted to a song or artist? I mean I feel as if the songs "How You Remind me" and "Woke Up This Morning" by Nickelback are both talking about me. I also think the songs "If I was your Vampire" and "Heart-Shaped Glasses" by Marilyn Manson and talking about my love life. To be honest I know how it felt making the whole album "Eat Me, Drink Me" and how and why he was depressed. I mean his Wife devorced him and he was looking for love at the time. No I haven't gone through this, I'm only 18. I mean I've been rejected many times by girls but thats it. But I just feel as if that whole album is talking about my love life and just life in general, but the songs above are the ones that stick out for me. So is it really strange to feel connected or as if the song is talking about you? I'm just wondering what your thoughts are on this.

No, it's not strange. Music is the universal language. And different as people are,
people are all the same. We all share feelings and fears and dreams. There are songs that make me laugh, some that make me cry, some that make me think of my Ex, some that make me remember my Mom, some that take me back to high school. Some songs give me strength. Some give me hope. That, is why we love music

I think that is part of good artist or song for me. If I feel connected or can personally relate to the music, then it means more to me. Just as long as it doesn't go too far, lol (i.e. stalking).
I'm a huge Alice in Chains fan, but have never struggled with (or really even tried) drug abuse (not that all of their songs are about that). But I still have a strong connection to the music because I can feel his pain and I can almost feel how he is feeling. Although I've never been a drug addict, I can relate to his feeling because of other situations in my life that gave me similar feelings.
To me, it just gives me a stronger bond with music.

No I believe that music should "talk" about your life,feelings,personal problems and all the things that bother u if u know what I mean.I love songs that have this something that makes u want to listen to them all the time and as u said feel connected to!There are some songs I listen to and if I feel blue or happy these songs comfort me!For example I love MJ so I feel conected to all his songs!!It's also very important for an artist who writes songs to make ppl like them and feel conected to...

That's the beauty of music...........regardless of generation, color, creed, etc.........it resonates with emotions......that's why a lot of songs deal with love, rejection, hope and heartbreak.......people can connect and relate to it
Some songs I feel connections to:
Billy Joel - Only The Good Die Young
Skynyrd - Free Bird
Sister Hazel - Your Winter
Social D - Story of My Life
