Question by Joe: What song could Holden Caulfied from Catcher in the Rye relate to best?
I just read Cather in the Rye for English, and now I have an assignment where I need to find any song that Holden Caulfield could relate to (lyrically). No Simple Plan allowed, or the songs Catcher in the Rye and Holden Caulfield.

Pick something depressing off the New Moon soundtrack (which is most of it). Feelings of pointlessness, worthlessness and spiritlessness…

I don’t know if it’s exactly the right genre but there’s a song by John Mellancamp that might fit called “Between a Laugh and a Tear”.

I liked that song growing up and sometimes I felt a little like Holden did.


millennia Said:

Who Wrote Holden Caufield – Green Day
also Basket Case, Longview, Castaway. A lot of their songs because the lead singer relates to Holden a lot.

Try Coldplay – What if?

The song basically goes back and forth, questioning every move like Holden. Good luck
