Meaningful, Beautiful Songs?

[Surtr]

What are some really nice, beautiful songs?

Things like Save Your Scissors-City And Colour or Swing Life Away-Rise Against

Basicly some more Acoustic Pop-Punk style stuff..?

[form]

Meaningful, but not exactly acoustic/pp for me:

Raise Your Fist-Throwdown

I love the lyrics and shi and agree with it.

I'll think up more later.

[DepthsOfDreams555]

I love those two songs!

The Consequences of Learning How To Fly - The Lyndsay Diaries
Rescued - Jack's Mannequin
The Tide, The Night Will Go As Follows, Sunsets and Car Crashes - The Spill Canvas
I Am For You - Waking Ashland
Some Will Seek Forgivness, Others Escape - UnderOath
View From Heaven, One Year, Six Months - Yellowcard

I've heard The first one, and the Waking Ashland one..and all the Yellowcard songs..The others anything like them?

[DepthsOfDreams555]

You haven't heard Jack's Mannequin? That song is really good, it's paino driven though. The Spill Canvas is my favorite acoustic band, their new album isn't acoustic but their first album is and it's basically one guy and those three songs are so beautiful, you have to hear them. And the UnderOath one is meh I like the lyrics and its super slow which isn't UnderOath.

[Mitch2oo6]

Spill Canvas ftw, very awesome indeed.
Same goes for City And Colour.
Nearly anything by Bob Dylan is meaningful, while probably not beautiful on account of his voice.

[TMA]

Mae - Ready And Waiting To Fall
Mae - The Ocean
The Juliana Theory - White Days
The Used - On My Own
Dredg - Zebraskin
This Provicence - To Kill This
This Day And Age - Second Place Victory
Scary Kids Scaring Kids - Just A Taste
Bleed The Dream - Broken Wings (the acoustic one is better)

And finally, kinda stretching it a bit, but...:
The Matches - Scratched Out

That should do for now.

[ert90]

Copeland - You Love To Sing

Not meaningful, but oh so beautiful.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Against Me! - Walking Is Still Honest

[Bad Blood]

I knew you were going to say that, Dan :p

Bayside/Smokin' Popes - Megan (acoustic)

[DepthsOfDreams555]

Bayside/Smokin' Popes - Megan (acoustic)

Yes!! Song is amazing, really the whole Bayside Acoustic album is beautiful.

[Bad Blood]

Yeah, definately. I love Bayside.

Their guitarist makes the acoustic sound so amazing imo, especiall in the solos, it's awesome.

Understanding In A Car Crash- Thursday
Probably my favorite song of all time. Just perfectly sums up adolescene, maturity and growing up to fast and does it with the most extreme display of emotion ever.

Stand And Feel Your Worth- Thrice
The title of this song is a phrase I have always told people to live by, people who have come up to me and said they've felt meaningless. This song really displays that uplifting message behind some of the most incredible music ever/

Sounds Like The End Of The World- Poison The Well
Haunting lyrics combined with absolutely spine chilling atmospheric music make this one of the most frightening songs I've ever heard.

A.E.I.O.U.- Give Up The Ghost
The lyrics to this song just mean so much to me and the way Wes delivers them is perfect.

In Years To Come- Thrice
The lyrics "I wanna write the perfect song and play it just for you, while you are tangled up in sleep" just mean so much to me.

How Long Is The Night?- Thursday
One of the most beautifully haunting songs ever written, highlight being at the "I will never sleep again part."

I'm sure I'll think of more.

[cobert]

Chris wins for having both "A.E.I.O.U." and "How Long Is The Night?" in the same post.

[Ross]

I'd love to say Together on the sand - NOFX. Shame its not really beautiful.

Swing Life Away-Rise Against

That's a great song.

[Society Sellout]

Jeff buckley- Pretty much everything from him is meaningful AND beautiful.

Thrice- a portion of their new album and select songs off of their past albums fit the bill.

Brand New- Boy who Blocked his own shot, MvMvE, No Seatbelt Song

There are more but this is what came to mind.

Moneen - The Song I Swore To Never Sing, and This Is All Bigger Than Me

Brand New - The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot

Also, the intro to Absinthe Party At The Fly Honey Warehouse by Minus The Bear is very beautiful.

[Mitch2oo6]

Bayside - Winter

[The_Red_Death]

I forgot to mention, City and Colour is amazing. I love Dallas Green's voice.

[Mitch2oo6]

I dont. I think it's a bit weedy, but when he gets into the stronger vocals its awesome.

How Long Is The Night?- Thursday
One of the most beautifully haunting songs ever written, highlight being at the "I will never sleep again part."

I'm sure I'll think of more.

One of the best lists I've seen in this thread. :p

I'd add Autobiography of Nation by Thursday on there, too, because I absolutely hate how this country (America, for clarification purposes) was founded on the slaughtered backs of natives and so many people pretend like it didn't happen...that song just gets to me.

How Long is the Night just owns so hard.

Not pop-punk, but Jane Doe by Converge (the entire album, especially the last song) makes me cry when I listen to it all the way through. I consider it the most beautiful album ever made. It makes me angry, bitter, elated, and feel basically every emotion that I felt when me and this girl Brittany had a thing a while ago. It's the only album that's ever done that. Overall, it's an amazing album; it will make you cry, it will make you scream, it will make you reflect on happiness and despair. Amazing album. Listen to it. Let your life be changed. :p

"The Saga Begins" by Weird Al Yankovic.

Weird Al is a fag imo.

[Surtr]

Your Song-JamisonParker

Just heard it a day or so ago. :)

[TMA]

Forgive Durden - "I've Got A Witch Mad At Me And You Could Get Into Trouble"
The Fray - "How To Save A Life"
The Used - "Blue and Yellow"
Plain White T's - "Hey There Delilah
Cartel - "Save Us" "The Minstrel's Prayer" "A"
I was about to say The Minstrel's Prayer, but decided not to for... some odd reason which is beyond me at this point.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I'd agree with the song Jane Doe - Converge.

[Firecracker]

Hahaha.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I'm not being sarcastic, it's beautiful and so intense.

[Bad Blood]

Hahahahha

[Angry Balled Fists!]

lol what ?

[Bad Blood]

Laughing at Laura thinking you were taking the piss, 'cause the song isn't beautiful at all really, well in the sense that any of the other discussed are.

[Firecracker]

I laughed because my friend likes converge and we were having a conversation about them today because he said they were emo and i thought they weren't then he said they classified themselves as 'grindcore free-from jazz' or something. Yeah, and he always says he hates his music ytaste it's not music it's noise. He's a great guy.

Well I haven't really checked out the lyrics 100%, but 'The War' by Angels and Airwaves is an amazing feel good song. I love it.
