You know those songs that you wish were written for you?

They don't have to be completely happy and they don't have to be intensely charming. They just have to be real. To remind you that people still feel things, sometimes.

20. French Kiss - The Teenagers
I can't help it. Really. I tried to get it off the list.

19. I Am Trying to Break Your Heart - Wilco
Beauty full.

18. I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) - The Proclaimers
Dedication.

17. In A Little While - U2
Bono.

16. Someday - The Strokes
Sexy.

15. Barricade - Stars
Tragic.

14. What Else Would You Have Me Be? - Lucero
Be.

13. True Love Way - Kings of Leon
Want.

12. La Cienega Just Smiled - Ryan Adams
Sigh.

11. Ocean of Noise - Arcade Fire
Forgive.

10. Love Me Tenderly - The Felice Brothers
Love.

9. A.M. 180 - Granddaddy
Cute.

8. The Temptation of Adam - Josh Ritter
Perfect.

7. All of My Days - Alexi Murdoch
Sweet.

6. My Favourite Chords - The Weakerthans
Innocent.

5. First Day of My Life - Bright Eyes
Conor.

4. Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
Freedom.

3. Consequence - The Notwist
Empathy.

2. I'll Be Your Lover, Too - Van Morrison
(You could switch this out for Brown Eyed Girl, I'd bat for both teams on this one).

1. Romeo and Juliet - Dire Straits
Obviously there is no greater love song ever written on the face of the planet.



Stay tuned for the next 12:30 A.M. snack - songs I wish I'd written...
