I'm new to this site...but I had the idea of charting Sam's development through the series with certain songs...this is my list! Please tell me yours!

Season 1: I'm Still Here by John Rzeznik
mostly because of the lines: 'What do you think you'd understand/I'm a boy, no, I'm a man' and 'How can the world want me to change/They're the ones that stay the same'...

Season 2: Savin' Me by Nickelback
'show me what it's like to be the last one standing/teach me wrong from right and i'll show you what i can be'...'heaven's gates won't open up for me/with these broken wings I'm falling'...this season really got me with the whole good person, evil destiny thing!

Season 3: Never Too Late by Three Days Grace
'I have left alone/Everything that I own/To make you feel like it's not too late, it's never too late'...'Even if I say it'll be all right/ Still I hear you say you want to end your life'

Season 4: Dance With the Devil by Breaking Benjamin
i know it sounds more like a season 5 song, but...
'easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right'
'trembling, crawling across my skin'
'say goodbye as we dance with the devil tonight/ don't you dare look at him in the eyes'
also Open Wounds by Skillet...

Season 5: No Fear by the Rasmus
'the final journey has just begun/and destiny chose the reaper...'
'no fear, destination darkness'
'close your eyes for the one last time/sleepless nights from here to eternity'...

Season 6: hard to find a song so far, i've thought of Leave Out All The Rest by Linkin Park, (i dreamed i was missing/you were so scared...when my time comes/forget the wrong that i've done/ help me leave behind some reasons to be missed...' since Sam has this mixture of innocent and creepy soullessness which Jared Padalecki does SO WELL and I feel like Dean's not giving him a real chance-it's not his fault he doesn't have a soul!
Also Dear Agony by Breaking Benjamin-all the pain of Sam's life as it was and then in the last line-'I feel nothing any more'...i feel like it fits for someone like him without a soul...
But I'd appreciate suggestions for this one?

Have you ever made fanmixes? This would be so what I would listen to. I actually have a song in mind that makes me think of Sammy every time I hear it:

Somewhere I Belong by Linkin Park

When this began I had nothing to say
And I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find that
I'm not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
but all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real.
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I've got nothing to say
I cant believe I didn't fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
looking everywhere only to find that it's
Not the way I had imagined it all in my mind.
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
Cause I cant justify the way everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I will never know
Myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel
Anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be
Anything 'til I break away from me
And I will break away
I'll find myself today

I want to heal, I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
(Erase all the pain till it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I want to heal, I want to feel like
I'm somewhere I belong
I want to heal, I want to feel like
I'm somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong

wow i see what you mean 'i want to heal, i want to feel'...it's definitely Sam! he just breaks my heart this new season, what he said to Dean at the end of the last episode nearly made me cry thinking of the old Sammy...amazing lyrics, i love Linkin Park i'll definitely check the song out!
i've never made fanmixes no, i'm not the greatest at editing this stuff and i'd just mess it up! i love listening to them though...one day i'll probably get round to making one!

Awesome, I'd have to go back and rethink the seasons to pick songs.

Hm, I like this idea, let me think...

For me THE song for Sam has always been "Numb" by Linkin Park. I think that would be for season 1, it perfectly mirrors the relationship between him and John, line by line.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you


Season 2 Crawling by Linkin Park, Sam didn't really know about the demon blood by then but still there was this feeling of something evil inside him.

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming/confusing
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
Controlling/I can't seem

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Discomfort,endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting/reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem...



Season 3 is "Forgiven" by "Within Temptation", Sam trying to deal with Dean and the deal. (Yeah, I know, pretty much a girly-song, but I don't care! ;) )

Couldn't save you from the start
Love you so it hurts my soul
Can you forgive me for trying again
Your silence makes me hold my breath
Oh, time has passed you by
You gave up the fight
You left me behind



Season 4 would be "Behind blue eyes" by Limp Bizkit.

No one knows what it's like to be the bad man, to be the sad man, behind blue eyes
And no one knows, what it's like to be hated, to be fated to telling only lies
No one bites back as hard, on their anger, none of my pain and woe can show through
No one knows what its like, to be mistreated, to be defeated, behind blue eyes




I have nothing for seasons 5 and 6 though, if I do find anything I'll add it. Btw, can you tell that I LOVE Linkin Park? ;)

Hehe, look and ye shall find: Season 5: Boulevard of broken dreams by Green Day, Sam being all alone and by himself since everbody's given up on him.

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone...

You shouldn't have done that, can't stop thinking about Sam-songs now... ;) Here's another one for him which fits perfectly, one of my all-time-favourites: Blaze of Glory by Jon Bon Jovi, Ghosty had the lyrics in her story and I read that last night, so I remembered that song.

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win

Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah I'm a wanted man
I'm colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can
I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun

You ask about my consience
And I offer you my soul
You ask If I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well,I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain
Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood

I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun

Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord,I got to ask a favor
And I'll hope you'll understand
'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let the boy die like a man
Staring down the bullet
Let me make my final stand

I'm a new member too, so I hope it's okay that I post in here!! ^^;;

All those songs are so great. I actually think that Somwhere I Belong and Numb fit Sam REALLY well, but if I may post another song that I think fits Sam extremely well? It's a classic and it's from a band that we all know (and hopefully) love!

Metallica

The Unforgiven

New blood joins this earth
And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rules

With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away


Chorus:

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

They dedicate their lives
To RUNNING all of his
He tries to please THEM all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares

The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

(instrumental)

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

Never Free
Never Me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
You labeled me
I'll label you
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
Never Free
Never Me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
You labeled me
I'll label you
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
Never Free
Never Me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

don't know that song by metallica...but i love many others! another good one is silhouettes by smile empty soul...

silhouettes above the cradle
hold me down
they won't let me go the wrong way
my mother taught me all the fables
told me how
in the end all the sinners have to pay

(chorus)
and i don't wanna live like my mother
i don't wanna let fear rule my life
i don't wanna live like my father
i don't wanna give up before i die

You worked so hard when bones are breaking
Wore them out
Work so hard you lost the feeling
His good attentions leave me shaking
Show me how
I don't ever wanna end up like he did

chorus

When I have kids
I won't put any chains on their wrists I won't
I'll tell them this
There's nothing in this world that you can't be if you want it enough

chorus

i just think it really fits Sam's whole story!

Are you kidding me?? Girl, that was on the Black Album! You must make yourself familiar with that song. It's an incredibly beautiful song.

I'm kinda freaking out over this because I love this band so much and I've seen them live twice and met the lead singer, but this reminds me of Season 6 Sam so much right now it's insane. It's what made Evanescence such a hit.

Bring Me To Life

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home


Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life


Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything

Without thought, without voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)

I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life
