The Soundtrack of your LifeChe Grimsdale writes: Now that Simon Cowell's stolen Everybody Hurts, tell us about songs that mean something to you - good, bad, funny or tragic, appropriate or totally inappropriate songs that were playing at key times.

Not a song, but a lyric.My best mate died of cancer a couple of weeks ago. A couple of months before that I'd just had some more bad news about his condition (tumour getting bigger, not smaller) and was driving around for some forgotten reason. Elbow came on the radio with the lyric "there's a hole in my neighbourhood, down which of late I cannot help but fall." The lyric and the sound suited my mood perfectly, so I turned up the volume and wallowed in the feeling.
After that I taught myself to play the song on the guitar. Really fucking badly. Still, with enough volume no-one gives a fuck.
