Suggest a song

[Dark_Avenger]

There was a thread like this a while back and I really liked it. So I decided I will start up another one with our now entirely appropriate forum board :D.

Suggest a single song to the community (And only one). I'm sure all you music lovers have many songs you'd like to share, but if you could pick just one, what would it be?

Just give the name of the song and the artist and (entirely optional, but it would be nice) an embedded youtube or other link so that we can listen to the song right here.

I'll start, It's hard for me to choose and I'm sure this isn't my favorite song of all times, but I really like it:

Satellite Mind - Metric

Oh Hai

[Croaxleigh]

I like this song (and the album associated with it) that it's been referenced in my user title and avatar for over a year (and even Christmas-y versions have appeared for the past two Christmases.) Hell, part of this song is even the ringtone on my cellphone. The entire album is amazing, though... it's a concept album done right.

Doing this again I think I'm still going to have to go for some Celtic music; there's not nearly enough of that around these days. My recommendation, then, goes to Niel Gow's Lament for the death of his second wife. They say when his Margaret died, he couldn't bear to touch his fiddle for weeks.. and when he finally did, this wonderful song was the first thing to come out of it. Being able to transmute that much sadness into a thing of such beauty is truly a wonderful gift.

As for artists, Gow was obviously the original but there aren't a lot of recordings from the 1700s. I haven't had too many compare to, so I'll just say that Alasdair Fraser's performance of it on Legacy of the Scottish Fiddle, Vol. 1 is remarkable. Of the Youtube performances I could find, I think this is probably the best:

A nice bit of satire from home.

E: for those of you from across the pond, the two fingers that you think is "Peace", it's not, it's an offensive gesture akin to the middle finger. The peace sign is the opposite way.

This is the last place where I expected somebody to bring up Joy Division. Thanks for a most entertaining video, Tiresias.

It's gotta be Pink Floyd. Not listened to them In a while, but they still stand out as one of the most influential bands on my own life so far. And what better song than the first song I heard by them, and the song that got me hooked! It really has a brilliant opening. Made me take up guitar as well!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySO-gryuO-c

Oh, and Croax, I really liked that! Never heard of The Protomen. Checking them out on youtube at the moment. Might go find out where I can get a hold of the album. :)

Lebanese Blonde (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04bg9IC9N6w) by Thievery Corporation. I loved the Middle-Eastern-inspired feel of the song, the steady rhythm and the breathy vocals.

[Inquisitor Lok]

This was hard... if i had to suggest one song, it would be;
Figure .09 - Linkin Park

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc9PYWTDKfE
The reason being, its probably my favorite all time song and is one of the songs that really got me into listening to music in general (The other which i nearly posted is, Crawling by Linkin Park as well)

[Tiresias]

Weirdly love this song atm

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzDz5wVs8uw&feature=channel

[MagosMechanicus]

Here's a neat one: Vidda by Ole Edvard Antonsen. From his album Landscapes a couple years back, this one is inspired by the Norwegian tundra. My family used to vacation there every fall: hiking, picking berries etc. While I think some of the other songs on the album better capture the sparseness and solitude of that landscape, this triumphant song feels like a great celebration of its majestic views and is still my favourite among them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_fYBp_qgm0

@#20: Very interesting song. I get this odd feeling it's not finished at the end, though. It's from that Ghost in the Shell anime? Off to blogspot I go.

[Open Blue]

Magos, it actually flows into the next song in the OST Rokki-wa doko (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGzBgB2NpjE&feature=related), which is why it doesn't sound like it has a satisfying ending.

The video isn't much to look at, but I rather enjoy their music

Escape Artist by Zoë Keating
I can't seem to get this song out of my head lately. It feels kind of like a Clint Mansell score, but all the magic is done with a single cello and looping.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYrcXX4nWOA

[Open Blue]

Hey, that's a pretty neat trick with the cello. I've been doing the same thing with my keyboard for the last 6 years, but it's interesting to see technology interfacing with the instruments to create the same effect.

It's 1am and I'm currently listening to this.

[Axyl]

Ok..lemme paint you a picture before i link the song (or to read whilst listening...that works)

It's Friday Night..
You're going out tonight to a club. There will be friends, drink, women, dancing, it's going to be an awesome night.
You're gonna drink till you fall over, some pretty lady is gonna dance like you'd paid her, you're gonna rock out with your cock out..

and in just a few short minutes...

you'll be leaving the house and it all starts..

This...is the song you plant in your head. The Soundtrack to a Night you'll never remember with the friends you'll never forget...

PLAY THIS LOUD! ;)

(Sorry for the double post, i couldn't just link one song)

[Tempe]

Won't proclaim this to be my favourite song (That in of itself is probably impossible) but it somehow manages to make me feel happy and depressed at the same time. It's by Muse (Big surprise there) and from Hullabaloo which is a good album itself, the latter half being live.

Oh wow... I Autotune overdosed in about 20 seconds.

Then I washed my ears out with Ennio Morricone's wonderful Cinema Paradiso main theme. Gorgeous, relaxing piece by one of the all-time great movie composers. This Youtube performance (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emdM2uX2CWA&feature=player_embedded)* was one I'd never heard before, and while it takes a little while to get to the music, it pays off big time. Yo-Yo Ma is just great in it.

Now with the disclaimer I have a lot of trouble trying to ignore all the teenage violent revenge fantasies that make up a lot of Tyler the Creator's album which has caused a fair backlash (raping pregnant women, really?) and lots of casual homophobia (he justifies he's not meaning it in a homophobic way...eer ok), he obviously is out to shock in a rather dull teenage way...in another however Yonkers is quite clearly the best hip-hop track I've listened to in a long time, which maybe the backlash has rather eclipsed (also that he's pretty likeable in interviews actually...)

Very VERY NSFW

I keep suggesting these guys to everyone because for some baffling reason no one has ever heard of them, and they really should be more known.Their style is very unique, unlike anything i've ever heard, yet it all sounds somehow familiar, like a soundtrack to something awesome that hasn't been made yet.But i ramble, lets just get to listening :)

While it is difficult for me to pick just one song to recommend; I have to go with one of the best long songs.

Right now I'm relaxing after a long evening shift at work with Scene V (Prelude) from Symphonic Suite Final Fantasy. A pretty varied piece based on the Overworld and Chaos Temple themes from Final Fantasy 1, along with the ever-present Final Fantasy Prelude (all by Nobuo Uematsu). It spans from a lively march to a quiet harp-and-flute duet, and it's all so beautiful I can feel the stress just melting away.

Whilst not really a song per se, I really recommend giving this a watch. These lads are fantastic, in that they replicate popular songs using obscure instrumental devices. Unique and interesting -really what youtube is great for.

It's not a song, but since my first concert was the Wiggles (I was 3), I got shamefully excited when I stumbled across this. There are currently 6 in the series and it's a nice intro to guitars if you don't know much about them and also a bit of guitar porn for enthusiasts. Most of them are only 2-3min long, so if you enjoyed the wiggles or just like looking at some nice guitars, go check out the rest of them.

a band that started around 1991 ( their first album "Pennywise" ) a punk band with a social touch who make awesome music and have a big following

one of their best songs and pretty much always actual ( good song writing ) is called society they are probably best know for Bro Hym ( tribute to a friend/brother who died ( don't know how )

Today I have for your consideration an oldie but good, that I had actually forgotten about until I heard it on the radio recently. I have two versions since I couldn't decide whether I liked the studio version or the live version from Woodstock better. The vocal/instrumental balance is a bit different between the two versions, but both are excellent in their own ways.

A unique version of Acapella native to Dalmatia, this particular piece goes on about the healing powers of the sea (this is a very bad way to describe it but I can't think of anything else right now), quite soothing.

So Linkin Parks new album 'Living Things' is actually really good which was a pleasant surprise as id thought that their past two albums were not that great xD (thousand suns was only good if you listened from start to finish without shuffle on, and Minutes to Midnight had only 2-3 songs that were good in my view) To me the entire album seems like they took a lot of the good parts of their previous two albums and flowed with them. As much as id love for LP to go back to their more hardcore days (so Hybrid Theory or Metora style) i know they have said they arent, so its atleast nice to hear that they can still make music i can listen to in my car without having to bare listening to the entire album through (which i rarely do :P )

Linkin Park - I'll be Gone (Probably my favorite song so far, it has a New Divide/ What i've done sort of vibe)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG-ja6wpOa0&feature=related
Also Castle of Glass and Lost in the Echo are also really really good.

[Tiresias]

Dirty Projectors have always somewhat been vulnerable to accusations of being all brain and no heart but think they've found a great balance on at least this single from the new album, love it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_qFaFl7JVc

[OhJohnNo]

Ah Lok, you also rule. Don't think the new album is as good as A Thousand Suns (I'm an album listener who views music listening as an activity, same as TV watching or book reading), but it's still pretty great.

I think this song just needs to be mentioned for its 'Epic' Dancing and the facial expression at 1:55-2:02 (and its quite catchy : / )

So Bay12 introduced me to yet another great artist:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4fXSNfOuwk

It seems to be someone who makes remixes of classic swing and jazz pieces from the last century into something that sounds similar to some of Moby's stuff, and it is rather good let me tell you.
