ISOLATION

VA - Isolation CD1+CD2+CD3 (A Butterboy Compilation)

John Lennon wrote in his song "Isolation" - “People say we got it made, don’t they know we're so afraid, Isolation. We're afraid to be alone, everybody got to have a home, Isolation”...
These words really make you feel that you can feel that isolation is part of the human psych and exists by your own thoughts. The song also makes you realize that we can be so cruel to each other. 

Everyone has experienced these feelings of loneliness or isolation at some stage.

With so many people in the world, how is it possible anyone feel lonely or isolated? Many of us may have felt loneliness when a loved one dies, after relationship ends or we're new to a school, job or community. Feelings of loss or grief, Lack of purpose or meaning in life can lead to feeling isolated and alone. Isolation is being separated from other people and your environment. Loneliness is a feeling of sadness or distress about being by yourself or feeling disconnected from the world around you.  Loneliness is an unpleasant emotional response to perceived isolation. It may be felt more over a long period of time. It is also possible to feel lonely, even when surrounded by people. Two principal types of loneliness are social and emotional loneliness, but there are other loneliness like family loneliness and romantic loneliness. Further types of loneliness include existential loneliness, cosmic loneliness - feeling alone in a hostile universe, and cultural loneliness - typically found among immigrants who miss their home culture.

Many artist have written about loneliness, isolation and solitude, The 75 tracks are by artists whom convey these feelings very openly. Of course there are many more songs about solitude, isolation or loneliness, but these are my picks that may offer some hope that we are not alone. After all it is what a songwriter’s job to convey feelings that make us think and feel. Often these songs help us look at ourselves in a way we may not have previously.     

The Cars "Drive" is one of the best songs about isolation, as is Joy divisions "Isolation" and John Lennon’s "Isolation”. The Beatle's "Eleanor Rigby", Pink Floyd's "Hey You", Black Sabbath's "Solitude" and Suzie Quarto’s "Lonely Is the Hardest" are wonderful examples of musicians conveying just enough to make you realise that there is suffering in isolation.  Also included in this list is an instrumental by Air "Alone in Kyoto". No words, just a tune that highlights and captures the feeling of isolation just beautifully. These are very powerful songs.  I won't say Enjoy… just Think.
