Song of the Day #3

Kid Cudi- "Soundtrack 2 My Life" from Man on the Moon: The End of Day

To me this is the perfect song. It combines a sick, upbeat, beat with the problems only really a few of us know how to "deal" with or have been through. This song is just Kid pouring out his soul and sadness into the verses, in what I consider my favorite song by him. Even when this first came out it always resounded with me. Now every time I listen to it the line "Since my father died, I ain't been right since"...I just identify with it. The feeling I've been feeling over the summer and such also reside in me from these lines as well. "I was close to tryin some coke, and a happy ending would be slittin' my throat" and "I'm happy, that's just the saddest lie." Also the chorus is just so perfect. So many lyrics and moment that Cudi has been through and decided to share in this song. It's just one of those songs in your life that's THE song. For me the sadness, the lyrics, the beat, and just Kid Cudi's even timing on throughout the whole song is amazing. This song personifies me, thanks out to Kid Cudi for recording this.

I've got some issues that nobody can see
And all of these emotions are pouring outta me
I bring them to the light for you
It's only right
This is the soundtrack to my life
The soundtrack to my life ohhhh
