Songs that have affected you (rock, doors, Nirvana, John Lennon)

Radiohead - Let Down

Seeing as this (in my opinion) is the pinnacle of Ok Computer's melancholy. It actually brought me to tears and it still scares me the emotional value this song has.

Can - Halleluhwah

My first ever experience of Tago Mago was in my bed, in the dark and through headphones. This song just completely blew me away (much like the album).It felt as though it was actually breaking my brain in two.

David Bowie - Everyone Says Hi - Heathen

This song gave me the idea of moving back to a town where I had cooler friends, as soon as I did, I met my fantastic girlfriend of 3 and a half years!
THANKS BOWIE!

Molded into my mind since I was a kid:
Adam's Song- Blink 182
Killing in the Name- Rage Against the Machine
Distance- Cake
Hanginaround- Counting Crows
Zombie- The Cranberries

More recently:
Organize- Contravene
More To It- Malignus Youth
Cries of the Past- UnderOATH
Giving Up Hurts the Most- UnderOATH
First Day of My Life- Bright Eyes
Haligh, Haligh, A Lie, Haligh- Bright Eyes
2:45 A.M.- Elliott Smith
Say Yes- Elliott Smith
In My Eyes- Minor Threat
Good Guys (Don't Wear White)- Minor Threat
I'm Back Sleeping, Or Fucking, Or Something- Moss Icon

Long list, but all these songs have deeply affected me and partially determined the person that I am now.

Stairway To Heaven..wow...where should I start, the song itself? the lyrics?
the softness of the song in the beginning and how it slow starts to get a lil heavier.....and well....its the first song I learned to play on guitar so it holds a special place in my heart.
