What's your life soundtrack???

What song/album is your anthem? Has it changed through different times of your life? Why do you feel connected to it?

Sutherland Brothers & Quiver - Lifeboat (1972)

A great adverse folk/rock album, that I have been relating to since it first came out.  The songs - Sailing, Real Love, I Don't Want to Love You, But I got you Anyway, and Space Hym paint my picture.

GNOD - Just Say No To The Psycho Right-​Wing Capitalist Fascist Industrial Death Machine

hey scarletF, this is a great thread!  

I would say that American Beauty is the soundtrack of my life.  every song on this album inspired me to live in a particular way. As a newly minted '19 yr old adult' i found american beauty to be a musical 'book of life' that spoke to me and of course, it still does.   

American Beauty (1970):  Box of Rain. Friend of the Devil, Sugar Magnolia, Operator, Candyman  2. Ripple, Brokedown Palace, Till the Morning Comes, Attics of My Life, Truckin

 

Beethoven Symphony No. 9

 

Oh friends, not these sounds!
Let us instead strike up more pleasing
and more joyful ones!

Joy!
Joy!

Joy, beautiful spark of divinity,
Daughter from Elysium,
We enter, burning with fervour,
heavenly being, your sanctuary!
Your magic brings together
what custom has sternly divided.
All men shall become brothers,
wherever your gentle wings hover.

Whoever has been lucky enough
to become a friend to a friend,
Whoever has found a beloved wife,
let him join our songs of praise!
Yes, and anyone who can call one soul
his own on this earth!
Any who cannot, let them slink away
from this gathering in tears!

Every creature drinks in joy
at nature's breast;
Good and Evil alike
follow her trail of roses.
She gives us kisses and wine,
a true friend, even in death;
Even the worm was given desire,
and the cherub stands before God.

Gladly, just as His suns hurtle
through the glorious universe,
So you, brothers, should run your course,
joyfully, like a conquering hero.

Be embraced, you millions!
This kiss is for the whole world!
Brothers, above the canopy of stars
must dwell a loving father.

Do you bow down before Him, you millions?
Do you sense your Creator, O world?
Seek Him above the canopy of stars!
He must dwell beyond the stars.
