Nineties Revisited: I'll Stand By You


Original video located here. Accessed 12th February 2014

Song title: I'll Stand By You

Artist: The Pretenders

Year: 1994

Why I like this song:

A song that means a lot to me: It's helped me through difficult times and it is a firm reminder that I have family and friends who will never give up on me. And no matter how many times I mess up, I can still turn things around. 

I will say, this song goes through a real gauntlet of emotions: Empathy, compassion and loyalty. All of which are rarely addressed in the pop song spectrum (unless you're R.E.M.) which makes this song stand out even more.
