Songs That Have Changed My Life: Part 2

Rounding up this feature of “Songs That Have Changed My Life”:

My Morning Jacket - Gideon

This song has actually appeared as part of the anthems feature I did last month, but this song is just so incredible that it simply cannot be omitted here. When lead singer Jim James belts out the words “listen” and “c’mon” over the psychadelic rock riffs, I feel as though I have been transferred to the same other-wordly fantasy realm created by the band.

Coldplay - Clocks

I have always been fond of Coldplay, and no matter how many times I have heard this song on the radio, this song still has hypnotic power over me. It’s perhaps the most magical song I have ever heard, that so effortlessly induces a top-of-my-lungs sing-along every time it is queued. This may very well be one of the greatest songs ever made (of course, subjective….please rip on me at will).

Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young - Helplessly Hoping

They are one person. They are two alone. They are three together. They are four for each other. Do I really have to say more?

    Coldplay is polarizing–I get that. And I think these two posts couldn’t have been more exemplary of that!
