Favorite Song?

Like the title says, what is currently your favorite song? Share what it is and why you like it or how you can relate to it. This will give us a chance to share with each other part of who we are.

Anyway, I'll go ahead and list my current favorite - Strawberry Fields by The Beatles. Why? I can relate to the sentiment that everyone is living life "with their eyes closed" while I'm trying to be someone meaningful. I find it very hard to accomplish this yet, at the same time, I don't really care whether or not I actually become someone meaningful. I can relate to being misunderstood, not being able to get people to understand where I'm coming from (note the lyrics "no one I think is in my tree"). Also, I at times feel like I disagree with what's going on in the world - like "it's all wrong." Check out the video clip below I'll put the lyrics in the comments section:



Now it's your turn :-)

Strawberry Fields Forever - John Lennon

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn't matter much to me.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or low.
That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right.
That is I think it's not too bad.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Always no sometimes think it's me, but you know I know when it's a dream.
I think I know I mean "Yes," but it's all wrong.
That is I think I disagree.

Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Strawberry Fields forever.

Everything by Lifehouse

Find me here
And speak to me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me to the place
Where I find peace again

You are the strength
That keeps me walking
You are the hope
That keeps me trusting
You are the light to my soul
You are my purpose
You're everything

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this

You calm the storms
And you give me rest
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall
You still my heart
When you take my breath away
Would you take me in take me deeper now

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this

Cause you're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
Everything, everything

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this

I haven't heard much of Lifehouse's stuff but I think I'd really like this song if I heard it. It really expresses a deep longing for and dependence upon God that I've experienced lately.
