Guys, I don't want you to just make your decision on who's blend was best, but by also what the song meant to them, and such:
Aaron:
Subject: The Boxer, by Paul Simon
Meaning:
Many of you may know that I didn't have what I would call the best of adolesences, but few people know that I actually entertained very dark thoughts there for some time. How simple it would be to escape from all the troubles that beset me, I thought. And when I saw in the news or heard of a friend of a friend's suicide, I thought to myself Wow, the courage, and the sheer determination of that person...I wonder what my actions would be. I actually admired people for killing themselves, and I still do, in a way. But my entry is based upon a song written by Paul Simon, called The Boxer, and there is no other musical form of loneliness, no other personification of absolute hopelessness and uselessness that I have ever heard. Captures so perfectly the way that I felt those times when my parents were gone and I took the big steak knives out of the drawer and looked at them.

Petra:
Subject: Eternal Wait, by Ensiferum
Meaning:
I heared this song the first time when I fell into the impossible love to a man who didn't answered my feelings, but used me and my feelings. When I figured out the truth I denied it so vehemently, that I got really deep into a very deep depression. I was paralyzed within this situation and it took a long time to get over it. This text still hunts me and I recall the feelings I had in that time. But by the way, its a beautifull text for a semi gothic/dark metal song.

Tony:
Subject: Tourniquet, by Evanescence
Meaning:
I've had a bunch of friends who have contemplated suicide, and gotten to the point where they actually began cutting. They all stopped, and are fine now, but in the times that they were thinking of suicide, I found this song all-too-real. And then...*sigh* I never thought I'd be admitting this on a board...but, last year...I attempted. Yes, your friendly, happy, couldn't-give-a-care ruler of Angmar, Tony, attempted suicide last year. Obviously, I'm still alive, but...yeah. I couldn't find this song any realer then I do now, and every time I hear the song I hear the sadness involved within it, and it reaches deep down. Sometimes, if it's late at night, it can cause me to get close to tears.

Okay, guys, vote, but remember, vote by judging which is both blended the best + has the best sentimental meaning to it.
