Some favorite songs

[maycontainthunder]

Electronic masterpiece.

 

[Skittlebisquit]

@Skittlebisquit, Are you familiar with Hot Tuna?
I am not a concert goer but my ex husband dragged me to see Hot Tuna at a mountain bar on the deck. Basically just 40 guests so there were no bad seats. A rare event I won't forget even though the music is not my jam.

I've not heard it before, this is so much fun, so much wonderful music, thanks for the jazz

 

[Flown]

Fever Ray is difficult to understand, but good.

I came here to post this one this morning. One of my favorites.

Lykke Li made


No way, are you a Swede? It`s very good. I came here now to post this, another Swede, maybe you like this one too? Lykke Li made several good songs.

I am not Swedish (one of my best friends lives there/is from there though) I just have a varied taste in music! My tastes range from classical to doom metal to experimental to bluegrass to aggro tech....and so on!

Thanks for the suggestion! I will check this out!

[Catherine Read]

One of my favourite Kate Bush Songs...

 

[Catherine Read]

 

[Catherine Read]

That reminds me of one of my favorite songs. Put on your red shoes and dance the blues, as Bowie said.

Can't go wrong with a bit of David Bowie!

 

[Gerald Wilgus]

This has been a favorite for a long time, these Swedes know how to make music.

And so do the Norwegians. I enjoy listening to Katzenjammer.

 

[Gerald Wilgus]

That`s surprising, I didn`t think you guys over there listened to Katzenjammer.

I like all sorts of music and enjoy the world of music. Nothing disappoints. From the Americas I enjoy Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. Here are two of my favorites, Matador and Vasos Vacios. Great imagery in the lyrics, especially dancing like the water of the river mixing with the sea, in the latter.. Here are both.

Esta música rompe mis pies.

 

[Luca]

I was told that if I had a theme song, this would be it

Mike Candys- Brand New Day

 

[Yeshuasdaughter]

I have always identified with the bee girl because she was living in a world where she different from everyone else. I think that most of us have experienced this to one degree or another.

Agreed! And when this video came out I was only a couple years older than the bee girl, from a weird, quirky background, and I looked a lot like her.

 

[Yeshuasdaughter]

I'm playing this song as we speak!

 

[tkcartoonist]

The Aspiegirl anthem

Have you ever heard the Carcass remix?

 

[tkcartoonist]

Best part: apparently Björk knows Jeff Walker of Carcass and requested that remix herself.

The Church are really underrated. Apparently, this song (and much of the album) was written about how much Steve Kilbey and the boys hated Los Angeles when recording Starfish and Heyday.

A little bit of backstory here: I had heard of Killing Joke for years, knowing that their song "The Wait" was covered by Metallica but knowing little else beyond that. One day, a guy I knew on a different message board posted this video of a more recent KJ song, and I was absolutely floored. It wasn't long after that I started delving into more of their material. 11 years later, and I'm still a fan (though I wish they'd announce a new album already: they haven't put out new material since 2015).

By the way, am I the only one that likes the absurdity of this extremely heavy song playing over an old Felix the Cat cartoon?
