I find it “fun” to listen to albums that I used to believe were “about me”. Right now I’m listening to Oasis they were who I listened to when I wanted answers to my questions about my belief system. Any music you used to think was about you?

This was playing when I was first hospitalised. It has religious themes. It’s a good song though.

I have thought (and still do believe) that most music with lyrics if not all - the inspiration is from God and not from the song writer and how christians view their bible , being a living word of God not written specifically for them but being from God one person reading can come away with something different and another person something entirely different that uniquely applies for them ( or some christian denominations believe this ) thats how i view music not as something written specifically for me but inspired by God and i hear it at the perfect time … and there are so many songs that i believe are inspired Bob Dylan all his songs and bob marleys one love just off the top of my head but so many more too many to list
I can’t help but think that the song “That Don’t Impress Me Much” by Shania Twain is about me. There are other songs that I think were inspired by me, but I won’t go into that.

During my psychosis, I thought that the lyrics of a lot of early Pearl Jam studio cuts and some of their b-sides and rarities were about me. Both Pearl Jam and Led Zeppelin were my two favourite artists at the time. Although, I hadn’t actually heard the more obscure PJ tracks until years later.

this one song, reapers, by muse triggers my hysterical paranoia but it’s so catchy i just listen to it once and then i take a long walk outside to shake off the jitters. it’s on their new album, "drones."
I haven’t been too delusional, but I have that residual stuff that acts up on occasion, like a little brain hiccup.
In my psychotic state I was convinced i was being hunted by assassins etc etc spooks, and that there were a handful of us running around all unbrainwashed lol. great song though, i also have a trigger reaction to the handler and defector, but those too, are excellent songs and are worth the accelerated heart rate and paranoia i get when listening.
can’t think of any
my god. we’re a bunch of psychos. I had that belief for a long time too.

I thought this post would have a lot more posters? maybe people just don’t want to share their delusional music? I thought it was a common belief to think songs and movies were about a person while ill? huh.
Nirvana, although I love it, it’s my delusional music. Alanis Morissette’s Ironic too. Some others that I don’t remember now.
I met a guy once that was triggered by Bethoven’s Seventh, go figure.
