Sail Away by David Gray. When I went to England to take a break from things when I split with my ex, I can remember sittiing at my gf's flat in Southampton and that song coming on... it's funny because it rang of freedom for me. Even now when I hear (or sing it) I get that feeling.


i have that same experience coming out of a bad relationship....well i didn't go to england, but you know what i mean...my song was 'i can see clearly now' by graham nash....

can i be at ease yet sissy?   :?

I just looked up the definition of epiphany on an on-line dictionary.  One of the definitions is "A comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization: “I experienced an epiphany, a spiritual flash that would change the way I viewed myself” (Frank Maier)."

By that standard I experienced an epiphany this morning when I looked in the mirror and noticed there is more of me than there ought to be.  

There is also an alternate spelling to this word; epiphony which means "A guitar of inferior quality masquerating as an Epiphone."  I can feel my vocabulary growing, even as we speak (write, whatever).

I once had this relationship that could have gone somewhere if I would have just tried a little harder. She wanted 100% of my time and I was still enjoying myself all I could with friends and 6th street (bar hopping) and softball and etc. Then one day I was sitting there with a girl I had met in a bar, just talking and on came this song, "Turning Japanese".  No sex no drugs no wine no women no fun no sin no you no wonder it's dark. And I'l be damned if I didn't look outside and it WAS dark out there. I said to myself, is this just a coincidence? I don't think so! So I ran to a phone, called my girlfriend, broke up with her immedietely and went home with this other girl.  I was just in heaven. We were laying there and she was saying, "I can't believe you just broke up with her just because you met me and thought I was special."  Then on came another song..."Flirtin' with Disaster" by Molly Hatchett. ...and I thought to myself "Hey....I was just drivin' on down the road a couple of hours ago!" Am I flirtin' with disaster? So I got my clothes on and ran out of her apartment, spinnin' my wheels as I left.  I think I got out of there just in time before some sort of disaster took place. I think that song was written just for that moment. Really.  So anyway I stopped at this bar and I'm talking to this girl and she says to me, where do you work? As I'm answering that I worked at Advanced Micro Devices, on comes this song by Devo "Working in a coal mine".  So now here I am think to myself "Are we not men? Maybe I better quit my job because high tech careers in fabrication plants are basically modern day coal mines. There is no telling what we have been exposed to in terms of long term chemical effects etc. So I called my job and told them I quit.  Well then I was taking this girl home and I was driving and we were talking and on comes Van Halen's "I can't drive 55" and here I am doing 57 miles an hour so I'm thinkin' to myself, what does this mean?  I didn't know!  I slowed down and sure enough, right over the hill is a highway patrol car with a radar trap set up. Wow. I'm saying to myself. This is radical! (We talked like that back then).  So we get back to her house and she says I can't come in because her boyfriend is home. I say to her "boyfriend?, why the heck did you invite me over to your house if you have a boyfriend?  So she's sitting there and on comes this song, "torn between two lovers" and she was feeling like a fool and she starts crying and I say to myself, "I thought this stuff was directed at me." What's this chick getting in on my action for? What's up with that? So as I get out to open her door and let her go home to her boyfriend, out comes said boyfriend out the front door of this duplex (nice two car garage and all) and he says, "Who the friggin' heck are you?" ...and on comes this song on the radio and it's "kung fu fighting" so I run around the card and........

I swear this is all true. Every word. (and on comes this song by the Bee Gees and it's "Jive Talkin" and now I'm really upset. So I...[schild=8 fontcolor=0000FF shadowcolor=C0C0C0 shieldshadow=1]Enough already![/schild]

Jeff,

You've had a more exciting life than Willie Nelson!  I don't think epiphanies were invented to have one every 5 minutes or so.  Slow down boy or you'll wear yourself to a frazzle.

I'm not into philosphy much other than f**k 'em they can't take a joke and the fact that I've noticed that there always seems to be a lot more horses a$$es than horses, but what if you've only got so many epiphanies coming for a lifetime.  You must have about used yours all up.  What if you need one someday and your quota has been reached?

If it comes to that I'd be glad to lend you a few of mine.  They're one owner and have hardly been used at all.  I'm sure that will a little Brasso and some elbow greae they'll shine up like new in no time.

Whew!  You tire a guy out just listening to your biography.  Imagine what it'll be like when you're my age; if you last that long.

Larry

I wonder how many calories a person can burn per each epiphany. I could use a few more myself. It beats running. I only run when I'm being chased and that hasn't happened since I was caught by GiGi about 13.5 years ago.

I haven't had any songs trigger an epiphany for me, but many times an epiphany has triggered me to write a song.

I love you Lisa

I thought I had an epiphany after surgery once but it turned out to be steroids. It's too bad too, I was thinking about absolutely nothing but it seemed like the most profound thought I ever had in my life.
