Matthew Good Band - Suburbia
Pearl Jam - Black

Matthew Good - Weapon.
There was a time where I would always be so stressed (mostly cause I had just entered high school then), but then when I listened to Weapon, it would relax me. Then I even started singing that in my head before and during exams, and it helped. Especially the line: "and you breathe in, and you breathe out, for it..."

OLP - In Repair
I listen to that over and over when I'm feeling hopeless. After a while, it starts to make sense of things.

Jack's Mannequin - Into the Airwaves

The ending lyrics bit got me through a really rough summer:
So hang on
It's gonna be a hard day
So hang on
Don't panic
Don't panic there simply is no need
It's gonna be a hard day
It's gonna be a hard day
Don't panic
Don't panic we are hanging here
We are hanging here

Floods by Pantera.
Honestly, even if you don't like metal at all, this song is amazing. The guitar work is so incredible it gives me chills every time. It's not loud or angry, it's relaxing. "Wash away us all, take us with the floods." Seriously, if you've never heard it, give it a chance.

And last summer I listened to "What Is and What Should Never Be" by Led Zeppelin a lot. I had let someone leave for the whole summer without telling them how I felt. The line "And you will be mine, by takin' our time" kinda hit the spot.

If olp isn't the answer for like everyone here than they probably wouldn't be here. haha.

If not for the no OLP rule, I would have said Clumsy and Naveed.

OLP got me thru my worst times ever. Lots of other music was important to me, but I didn't lean on it like I did OLP.

OLP's music saved me.
I can't possibly make a post in this thread without one of their songs.
So I broke the rule first, but it's all for a good cause.

How To Disappear Completely. Yay denial!

Olp_waited · Post by **Olp_waited** » 5/23/2006, 3:21 pm

I would say every OLP song, just because so many songs have helped me, that I associate OLP with greatness.
besides them:
Pretty Girl: Pedestrian
Free Fallin - Tom Petty
Drive - Incubus
Ac/DC - Shook me All night long(It gets me its such a good mood, makes me wanna dance. hehe)
