We rely on it for different reasons. And when we seek inspiration, the right song can lift our spirits. So this list highlights three great comeback anthems by artists who experienced their own survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u201cLose Yourself\u201d by Eminem<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Eminem - Lose Yourself\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xFYQQPAOz7Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Calling something the greatest this or that is often a silly exercise. But it\u2019s one I\u2019m not above. For example, calling \u201cWhole Lotta Love\u201d the greatest rock guitar riff. So, if there\u2019s a better hype track than \u201cLose Yourself\u201d, I\u2019ve yet to hear it. Eminem\u2019s mantra from <em>8 Mile<\/em> describes desperation. The moment when hope is slipping. And it\u2019s slipping fast. This is the rapper balancing on the cliff\u2019s edge between obscurity and GOAT. There\u2019s no family money or influence to fall back on. It\u2019s just the greatest living rapper (there I go again) rising like a Detroit phoenix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Mom, I love you, but this trailer\u2019s got,<br>To go, I cannot grow old in Salem\u2019s Lot.<br>So here I go, it\u2019s my shot, feet, fail me not,<br>This may be the only opportunity that I got<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u201cComeback Kid\u201d by Sharon Van Etten<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sharon Van Etten - Comeback Kid\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h4mewwymxbI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An utter banger from Sharon Van Etten. The folk singer herself is the comeback kid. After a stint at Middle Tennessee State University, she escaped a bum of a boyfriend in the middle of the night, taking only what she could carry. Soon enough, the New Jersey native was in Brooklyn among a cohort of transformative indie artists. \u201cComeback Kid\u201d is how we evolve. How much of an earlier version of us remains? And how we\u2019re tethered to the person we used to be. You\u2019ll want to crank this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cHey, you\u2019re the comeback kid.\u201d<br>See me look away,<br>I\u2019m the runaway, I\u2019m the stay-out-late, I\u2019m recovering.<br>Kid at the top of our street,<br>I was somewhat like him; I was somebody.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u201cThis Is Music\u201d by The Verve<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Verve - This Is Music\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PgsPAsno4OU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These days, the music business feels like a playground for rich kids. The ones who emerge with expensive records, backed by the safety net of family dough and a team of professional songwriters. But when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.songfacts.com\/articles\/the-hidden-history-behind-the-drugs-dont-work-by-the-verve\/\">The Verve<\/a> emerged from Wigan, there was none of that. There was no guarantee they\u2019d survive themselves, let alone the music industry. But Richard Ashcroft had the goods to back up a track bold enough to be called \u201cThis Is Music\u201d. You can\u2019t get to something like \u201cBitter Sweet Symphony\u201d without the struggle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>I stand accused just like you,<br>For being born without a silver spoon.<br>Stood at the top of a hill,<br>Over my town I was found<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Photo by Dave Simpson\/WireImage<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hear these comeback anthems by Eminem, Sharon Van Etten, and The Verve, each of whom experienced their own survival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":973477,"featured_media":6906,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"byline":{"profiles":[{"type":"byline_id","atts":{"term_id":316,"post_id":2139}}]},"savage_platform_role_ideator":[],"savage_platform_role_editor":[],"savage_platform_role_senior_editor":[],"savage_platform_role_photographer":[],"savage_platform_role_illustrator":[],"savage_platform_role_translator":[],"savage_platform_role_as-told-to":[],"savage_platform_role_reviewed-by":[],"savage_platform_disable_recirculation":false,"savage_platform_article_type":"news","savage_platform_vice_article_type":"article","savage_platform_article_intent":"","savage_platform_show_affiliate_disclaimer":false,"savage_platform_markdown_available":false,"savage_platform_markdown_version":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"wp_curate_deduplication":false,"wp_curate_unique_pinned_posts":false,"savage_platform_featured_image_caption":"Photo by Dave Simpson\/WireImage","_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"savage_platform_subheadline":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[142,18],"byline":[316],"class_list":["post-6904","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lists","tag-hip-hop","tag-rock-music"],"savage_platform_primary_term":{"category":{"term_name":"Lists","term_id":14,"term_link":"https:\/\/www.songfacts.com\/articles\/category\/lists\/"},"post_tag":{"term_name":"Hip-Hop","term_id":142,"term_link":"https:\/\/www.songfacts.com\/articles\/tag\/hip-hop\/"}},"hide_from_homepage":false,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
