Re: Music Thread: Songs to hear at least once before you die
This thread is incredible.
A few quick picks: Steve Vai - Bangkok/Fire Garden Suite Squarepusher - Port Rhombus Steve Reich - Electric Counterpoint - Fast 1 Gustav Holst - The Planets Suite Dizzy Gillespie - A Night in Tunisia Iron & Wine - Naked as We Came Tool - Forty six & two, The Pot Led Zeppelin - Fool in the Rain Aphex Twin - Flim, 4 Dave Brubeck Quartet - Take Five Thats enough for now... I read a few pages, so I tried not to list anything already mentioned. Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings would definitely have been my #1 choice. edit: Also, I recently discovered Jeff Buckley, and it saddens me that I only now found his music. |

Re: Music Thread: Songs to hear at least once before you die
OP was asking about "songs", but since classical music has been brought up....
Beethoven's piano sonatas, such as Pathetique and Moonlight. Beautiful. The former provided the tune for Billy Joel's "This Night" from Innocent Man, among others. The Beatles played a chord progression from the latter in reverse on "Because" from the Abbey Road album, among others. |

Re: Music Thread: Songs to hear at least once before you die
