Songs that blow you away

[Artina89]

This song always sends shivers down my spine:


It's deranged sure, but I love it I just have to be careful not to sing it on the bus or something. I might get committed

[Nemu]

Why does everyone like metal?

I ask myself this everyday I come to the escapists, it's over run with metal heads.

I ask myself the same thing about rap fans. To each their own.

Spoiler: My favorite song ever

I can't stop listening to it, most songs with gratuitous french really hit me.

Love, love, LOVE the Stop making Sense version of this song.



Just 'cuz [http://www.leekspin.com/]

In all seriousness, to be different, I present you with the only Genesis song I like....because it's a creepy song about a hooker:

 

[DOOM GUY]

I would have to say there are quite a few songs that have "blew me away", but here's three off the top of my head.

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

This song is amazing. Beautiful to me.

 

[KingCrInuYasha]

Since Nemu brought up Genesis:

 

[tsb247]

I heard this song once, and it instantly became my favorite. I have yet to get tired of hearing it - after over a year. The vocals are incredible!


(Oh God... I hit the red button...)

 

[II2]

It's been a LONG time since a song "blew my mind"... but yeah, genuinely, these ones detonated my imagination.

This whole track is great ^ the on below is recorded much louder, FYI
Skip to 2:55 ^ --- again, LOUD RECORDING ; turn down your speakers or headphones and then dial it back up where you're comfortable.

Be warned, I like my music more intense than most people can enjoy, or even tolerate.

What songs have you heard in your life that have completely blown you away?

Adele - Rolling in the Deep
Adele - Someone Like You
Imogen Heap - Hide And Seek
Wakeshima Kanon - Still Doll
Lena Meyer Landrut - Satellite
Anna Nalick -Breathe (2 AM)

If you like those songs, then you should appreciate this (not the video, the song (which is a cover by the way)) -


Song that blows me away is this -


And this one -

 

[Kezboard]

Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. Especially the recording conducted by Herbert von Karajan.

It embodys the triumph of a nation in the face of overwhelming aggressor.

Plus there aren't many pieces for a full orchestra, all churchbells of an entire city and an artillery regiment.

I don't get, like, half the submissions in this thread, but I'm reeeeeally curious to become aware of how "Caramelldansen" should blow anyone away.

srs faic. :|

Because Caramelldansen is fricken awesome. Then again, I'm also a sucker for high-energy.
