If last minutes with oden didn't make you cry, i don't know what to tell you. This song and the one below it remind me of a person who I became extremely close to through EM. A person that I will always care for, even if we lost our spark as friends. I guess just because no one ever got me like they did. They never knew these songs reminded me of them, but that doesn't take away from how much they mean to me.

This is the song Luap played that got us both banned from mashup.fm

Idk I just love this song. Went through a huge city and colour phase when I was 18.



This just hurts to listen to but I do it anyway!!!



Before going to a festival where Hozier was playing, I was feeling pretty sad and I was drunk with my friends, this song was playing and it made me feel content. Now this song always makes me feel like I'm somewhere between okay and melancholy.



This entire album consoled me throughout my angsty young teen phase. I will never not love it.

This and I Will Follow You Into The Dark, as izzy posted above. Neither for sad reasons, they just both mark an extremely important part in a friend of mine and I's life (along with a few other friends).

it's weird because this song doesn't represent a relationship in my life that i would consider positive anymore. but it definitely reminds me of a time when the metaphorical candle burned too hot and too fast. so the song certainly just makes me reflect on things.

plus i'm using it as the song for my final choreography project.

this song, especially this particular live version, is so important to me. this is from his film and this performance is when he officially retired the character of ziggy stardust. there's so much passion in it that you don't get as much from the original (not that the original isn't good!)

someone very important to me introduced me to this song, as well as to david bowie, at a time when i really needed him. i can still remember where i was when i first listened to it. bowie is a major figure in my life and i love him more than words can say. if i get a tattoo someday, it's going to be the lyrics "oh no love, you're not alone"

this is a really nice song anyway but i listened to it whilst flying over atlanta at night, seeing all the christmas lights and things like that and i really appreciated it

also the story the lyrics convey about the singer feeling different or isolated from other people and wanting aliens to take him away so he can be a silent observer of humanity rather than an active participant resonate with me and i'm sure many others
