Most people have a song that means more than any thing else to them. What is yours?

Mine is 100 resolutions by the Lawrence Arms.
Where have I been all your life?
Sitting on fences, a novocaine for all the senses.
Another year will pass us by.
Making sense of nothing, in defense of something.
I laughed too late and dug myself into a grave.
This year I'll try not to think too much.
This year I'll try to stand up for myself.
This year I'll live like I've never lived before,
this is my year for sure.
Another stupid clumsy story.
More accidental aspirations.
Another explosion of silence.
I think I'm going deaf, or maybe I'm just hearing less.
This year I'll try to only listen to myself.
This year I'll try not to think too much.
This year I'll try to stand up for myself.
This year I'll live like I've never lived before,
this is my year for sure.
I wonder where you'll be bringing in the new year.
As midnight clocks are singing,
good chance I'll be slobbering somewhere.
Probably pass out, wasted, and sleeping until the smoke clears.
Vague memories of midnight flash in tune to morning sunlight.
Wake up knowing you'll never be there.
I've got 100 resolutions, but I've got no solutions.
I've got one song I write 100 times.
And only a dozen or so rhymes.
This year I'll try not to drink so much.
This year I'll try to stand up straight.
This year let's live liked we've never lived before,
this is our year for sure.

This song just makes me think about people I have met and why it took me so long to meet them. Wondering where they are and how life is. Also just sums up how my life feels these days.

Beautiful Sunshine (http://www.last.fm/music/Fonseca/_/Beautiful+Sunshine?autostart) by Fonseca. It came out earlier this year, actually. Click the song title to listen to the whole thing. Don't worry, there's a fair bit of English.

Unconditional exuberance, a healthy appreciation for the fundamentals of existence and a desire to enjoy each moment as it passes by. I admit I'm not like this from day to day as much as I used to be, but this song brings it back in a powerful way. It can move me near to blissful tears just about every time I listen.

"As" by Stevie Wonder.

It's seriously the best love song I've ever heard. And I identify with it because I had love like that once, and hope that I can someday be so lucky to have it again.

Or "Wait (The Whisper Song)" by the Ying Yang Twins.

Because, like they say, I'ma beat that pussy up (wait'll you see my dick!). ;)

Teardrop by Massive Attack.

Just one of those time and a place type things. Only it's associated with a few time and or places.

Haven't laughed this hard in a long time
I better stop now before I start crying
Go off to sleep in the sunshine
I don't want to see the day when it's dying
She's a sight to see
She's good to me
But I'm already somebody's baby
She's a pretty thing
And she knows everything
But I'm already somebody's baby
You don't deserve to be lonely
But those drugs you've got won't make you feel better
Pretty soon you'll find it's the only
Little part of your life you're keeping together
I'm nice to you
I could make it through
But you're already somebody's baby
I could make you smile
If you stayed a while
But how long will you stay with me, baby?
Because your candle burns too bright
Well I almost forgot it was twilight
Even if I think that you are right
Well I'm tired of being down, I got no fight
You're wonderful
And it's beautiful
But I'm already somebody's baby
And if I went with you
I'd disappoint you too
Well I'm already somebody's baby
Already somebody's babyTwilight by Elliott Smith.

well it's happening
never planned on this
you've got something I need
kind of dangerous
and I'm losing control
I'm not used to this
what you want from me
I'm not used to this

I can't shut it off
this thing I've begun
and it's hard to tell
just where it's coming from
and it's hard to see
what I'm capable of
and it's hard to believe
just, what I've become

hey, can we stop
me, I'm not
hey, can we stop
me, I'm not
hey, can we stop
me, I'm not
hey, can we stop
me, I'm not

I can swallow it down
keep it all inside
I define myself
by how well I hide
I feel it coming apart
well, at least I tried

I can win this war
by knowing not to fight
if I take it all back
someway, somehow
if I knew back then
what I know right now

hey can we stop
me, I'm not
hey can we stop
me, I'm not
hey, can we stop
me, I'm not
hey, can we stop
me, I'm not

Me, I'm Not by NIN.

"I hate Jimmy Page" by Mindless Self Indulgence.

I'll show you how official midgets jack me off.

Edit: Okay, in all seriousness, the song I identify with the most is one that I wrote, of course.

Eight-bit Soul by Dichotomous Rex (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile&friendID=182652614).

The subtle songs of circuit boards are singing in my ears
They whisper soft apologies, seduction in its purest form
I'm back where I belong, I've been gone for oh so many years
As cold as I've become, I wonder, when I touch her, am I warm?

I'm asking you again
Was I created
or have I been born?
It seems like such a sin
to shed the skin
that I have always worn

But just beneath this heaving sheath are only cogs and wheels
They grind away behind the tired visage that I wear
You've heard it all before, the stilted offer, all those shady deals
So I won't ask and I won't hear the syllables that I can't bear

Well it all comes down to this
No one ever
said that life was fair
but as long as we exist
we haven't missed out
on our chance to care
