Songs that are of an INFJ nature

Virtual Insanity- Jamiroquoi

Sounds like a whole lot of Ni to me.
 
Artemis - Beside U

I am pretty sure that she is an INFJ as well. Just listing to her music, and speaking to her as well. This is one of my most favorite bands.

The disease of this trust is
Mended by the silver light of silence
The blue of a boyhood sky
River's running backwards, like a
Child of a wandering mind
Slippery with forgetting and I'm feeling fine
Bring your night out in the daylight
For now I walk beside you
Can't kill the Mystery
Can't put it to sleep
Makes me think I'm crazy
To keep running circles around the silence
Trying to raise the dead
Can't overload the current
It's a strong thread from one day to another
A life and back again I study
The method of a resurrection state of grace
My prize possession living like lovers do
Nothing can harm you
In your footsteps orchids blooming
I'm a fool to keep assuming
For now I walk beside you
Can't kill the Mystery
Can't put it to sleep
Makes me think I'm crazy
To keep running circles around the silence
Trying to raise the dead
Fingers try to break it
But it's a strong thread
Show me another country dressed in
colors not invented by an
earth bound mind
For now I walk beside you
for now the sweetest flowers are late to bloom
snake slides sideways in the sin
slippery with forgetting
feeling fine
just another child asking why.

moonbabyam, Her going through those gates and finding what she found was very asimilar to my finding out about infj after having lived most likely over half my life. I seriously doubt many people my age really even care enough to keep on searching and learning: looking and yearning. Great analogy in the song. Thanks!
 
Ha! Found some!

Warriors of Light

Terra in Black

Evacuating London, Chronicles of Narnia
[youtube]whz4BZeRLHc[/youtube]

Those are all instrumentals.
This next one has lyrics, and is the most INFJ:

Wunderkind, Chronicles of Narnia
[YOUTUBE]BnGdx40919M[/YOUTUBE]
Oh perilous place walk backwards toward you
Blink disbelieving eyes chilled to the bone
Most visibly brave no aprehended gloom
First to take this foot to virgin snow

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
And I lift the envelope pushed far enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to serve, destined to roam

Oh ominous place spellbound and unchild-proofed
My least favorite chill to bare alone
Compatriots in place they'd cringe if I told you
Our best back-pocket secret our bond full-blown

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a pioneer naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to seek, destined to know

Most beautiful place reborn and blown off roof
My view about-face whether great will be done

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a ground-breaker naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
 
This to me is an INFJ going shadow, both in the sound and in the words:

"Light begins to fade... I forget my name..."

I didn't really get hooked on this song until I listened to the lyrics properly :

Close my eyes
Feel me now
I don't know how you could not love me now
You will know, with her feet down to the ground
Over there, and I want true love to grow
You can't hide, oh no, from the way I feel

Turn my head
Into sound
I don't know when I lay down on the ground
You will find the (way it) hurts to love
Never cared, and the world turned hearts to love
We will see, oh now, in a day or two
You will wait
See me go
I don't care, where your head turned (I don't know)
You will wait, when I turn my eyes around
Overhead when I hold you next to me
Overhead, to know the way I see

Close my eyes
Feel me now
I don't know, maybe you could not hurt me now
Here alone, when I feel down too
Over there, when I await true love for you
You can hide, oh now, the way I do
You can see, oh now, oh the way I do

In the next world war
In a jackknifed juggernaut
I am born again

In the neon sign
Scrolling up and down
I am born again

In an interstellar burst
I am back to save the universe

In a deep deep sleep of the innocent
I am born again

In a fast german car
I'm amazed that I survived
An airbag saved my life

In an interstellar burst
I am back to save the universe

In an interstellar burst
I am back to save the universe

Lateralus is totally either INTP or INFP, imo.
You think so? Its lyrics praise intuition and not "overthinking or overanalysing". I feel it to be quite INFJish. Could be wrong though. Could be INFP.

He speaks of withering his intuition.
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.
Over thinking and over analyzing separates the body from the mind, you have to push your thinking. Lose that connection with the flesh that binds you. If anything, he's saying that his intuition is withered due to his body and desire. Seems like his understanding of the world is via intuition and thinking and that's the way it should be.

Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.
I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.
With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. Keep going, going...
This entire phrase is definitely a perceptive trait. Just letting go and truly loving every moment as it comes. Not only accepting the random, but loving it.

Yeah well I think that he's being critical of withering his intuition and critical of overthinking and overanalysing.
It dont think hes proposing this, but rather hes says that IF he overthinks he loses the trait of intuition. Thats what Keenan said about his song in an interview as well. The separating the body from the mind is presented as a bad thing, as it disrupts the wholeness of the human being. Reaching out to embrace the random is the trait of an intuitive person, not a planning or a thinking one. Rythm, inspiration, feeling... All these connect to the intuitive type.
His desire to return to "rythm and inspiration" proves his desire to return to his intuitive tendencies, although its obvious that at some point he has diminished them due to overthinking certain issues, or about life whatsoever. Or at least thats my interpretation of the song and thats why I posted it.

Your approach is a very interesting one. It is a song after all, and there are many approaches in art. Thats what I think
at least.

Edit: I don't think I made clear what I mean. I'll try and rephrase the chorus in order to explain whay I'm saying the above:
'By Overthinkng, overanalysing, I'm separating my body from my mind, and I'm withering my intuition."
You take it as a statement that someone should pursue, while I take it as a critical statement. Thats the difference in our interpretations.

All I Really Want - Alanis Morissette

[youtube]-7qhHJ5es98&feature=related[/youtube]

Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I don't want to dissect everything today
I don't mean to pick you apart you see
But I can't help it

There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already
If only I could hunt the hunter

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance

Do I wear you out
You must wonder why I'm so relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy

And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker
And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature

What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate
Someone else to catch this drift
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred

Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses
Falling all around...all around
Why are you so petrified of silence
Here can you handle this?

Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines
Or when you think you're gonna die
Or did you long for the next distraction

And all I need now is intellectual intercourse
A soul to dig the hole much deeper
And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer

All I really want is some peace man
a place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength

All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice...
 
PG - mmmm, good song!

I dare you to listen to Dare you to Move! The animation is what makes it especially INFJ. Not so much the spiritual overtones, but rather the call to improve the lives of those around you. Just watch it already! :)

I never watched that video with the interest I did just now. Interesting, and thanks.
