Re: Music Thread: Songs to hear at least once before you die
I'd add Wings for Marie(Pt 1)/10,000 days(Wings Pt 2) to the list of Hyperballad, Lateralus, and Where did you sleep last night.
Maynard singing about his Mom's faith in Wings and in a few APC songs is really touching. I am an atheist, but I really like how he respects his mother's faith and devotion, even though it was really all for nothing. I also think the song "Mary did you know" by Mark Lowry is worth a listen. It has a perspective similar to Hyperballad.
If "Where did you sleep last night?" was any indication of how blues would be reintroduced to my generation, it makes Cobain's death that much more tragic. Hearing those songs revisited would be a hell of a lot better than the trash being passed off as music right now.
