Choose from the list below:
- Love
- Break-up
- War
- Religion
- Fantasy (Mythology, sci-fi etc.)
- Having a good time
- Addiction
- Insanity
- Music

I love most topics but I think there have been some brilliant lyrics about war over the years. My favourite one has to be Black Sabbath's 'War Pigs'.

If it's lyrics, it either has to be clever or something I can relate to.

I like a lot of the lyrics in Muse songs. Completely barmy some would think, but very interesting.

I've always liked the lyrics to Circle Game by Joni Mitchell. I'm not sure how you'd categorize that song. I heard she wrote it for Neil Young when he was 20 and scared of getting older and also, she had given a baby up for adoption and that may have been on her mind. It's to do with life experiences and time marching on . I guess I like meaningful lyrics and maybe the subject matter is just secondary to that.

I just like a good story that manages to fit in with verses and chorus.

Some of my favourite story songs are

All-American Girl by Carrie Underwood
Who'd Have Known by Lily Allen
Goodbye Earl and Long Way Round by Dixie Chicks
Me and Bobby McGee by Janis Joplin
Irreplaceable by Beyonce

Can't beat a good love song. Or a break up one
Just ones that have good story and are actually events the singer has gone through

I love story songs. Birds by Kate Nash is a great one.
