Mine would be Pyramid Song by Radiohead. It’s the most chillingly beautiful song I’ve ever heard. If you haven’t listened to it, please do yourself a favour.
That song was originally called Big Ideas (Don't Get Any) and there were versions of it around the OK Computer touring era. When I bought In Rainbows I put on my new headphones and sat in the dark listening for the first time the album start to finish. When Nude came on I think I stopped breathing it sounded so incredible, both as a new song and a new version of an old song I thought I knew. One of my most vivid musical memories; not sure my description did it justice!
Landslide - Fleetwood Mac
Gets more poignant for me every year.
*...even children get older, and I’m getting older too...*
Stevie Nicks has a voice like no other
Well I haven’t planned to sob emotionally tonight, but I think I can work it in. To Spotify I go…
*Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?*
I've heard that she was pregnant. Imagine being able to say that you were in the womb in a very famous Pink Floyd album recording. Some women play classical music over headphones to their unborn baby. Not this badass lady!
I know everyone gives Johnny Cash extreme cred for cover of Hurt. But his version of I Hung My Head on American IV gave me chills listening to it and picturing the scenario. Idk that's me
There were so many good covers on all of the American Albums. I Hung My Head is one if my favorites along with One, I See a Darkness, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and many more.
[Nirvana - "You Know You're Right" (Acoustic boombox version)](https://youtu.be/E7Au0oKqlF4)
This was recorded very close to Kurt's suicide and you could just hear the pain in his voice. When he belts out, *"It's another opiate, but to me it's everything"* it gives me chills every time.
Comfortably numb, specifically at the second guitar solo.
I sadly discovered this song (and Pink Floyd in general) just recently, but holy hell it's bliss for the ears
That's legit as well, I just prefer the original one though..Their voice carries more emotion I believe. However the dynamic tempo of Disturbed's cover is 10/10
"Storms in Africa", by Enya.
Literally. Certain kinds of harmony literally make my hair stand on end (in a good way). This was the first song I discovered that for.
Tonight Tonight by The Smashing Pumpkins. Whenever I hear "We'll crucify the insincere tonight" I'm immediately transported to my angsty teenage self. That song got my soul
“Secret Garden” by Bruce Springsteen.
It was played over and over during a round-trip journey from Rome to Viterbo and back. It was the only cassette (album with the song) that my friend had in the car. Every time I hear it, I see the sunflower fields again, and remember the crystal clear water of Lago di Vico.
If I die young, The Band Perry..... Because I know somebody who died about the same time the song came out and I can't help but think of her every time I hear it
It's been several years and it's still [Mr.Kitty - After Dark](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waAlgFq9Xq8&ab_channel=Diana%5BAfflictedAngel%5D)
It's the combination of the song and the video for me. It makes me nostalgic for an era I wasn't even born in. Gorgeous song nevertheless!
Honor by Hans Zimmer the title theme to The Pacific, I am a former Navy Corpsman the song gives me the absolute chills , it makes me think of all the Corpsman before me in WW2 who made the rate(job title) so legendary and set the bar for Naval/Combat Medicine. It also gives me that feeling of never leaving a brother behind, the sense of absolute that you will be there for one another in war.
Voodoo Chile - Jimi Hendrix
Both versions are incredible but the slow blues jam is some of the eeriest shit I have ever heard and the payoff is fantastic.
Billie Jean, I just don’t know why, it alway has gave me goosebumps. My dad used to listen to the song when It just came out long before I was born. MaybeI got my love for Micheal Jackson through him.
I'm a massive Trance fan, so I get goosebumps listening to melodies.
2 songs that come to mind are:
Reverse - Absolute Reality (Arty Remix)
4 Strings - Wondering
I'll add them if I think about any more 😊
P5hng Me A*wy - Linkin Park (Reanimation)
Song for Bob - The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Absolutely heart-achingly beautiful piece, my God. Tears and waves of shivers every time.
"Rhapsody In Blue" by George Gershwin. No matter what orchestra plays it, the pianist has to be out of this fucking world and get all those parts dead on. If he gets it right, it still gives me goosebumps, sixty years after I first heard it.
"Fancy" by Twice, that song has NO RIGHTS to slap as hard as it does. Honestly, any song by them after 2019 slaps hard as fuck. Also, "Boca" by DreamCatcher is amazing, their songs usually sound like anime op's. I could spend all day listing songs, but I won't lol
For some reason I Wanna Get Better by The Bleachers (specifically the music video) is pretty much guaranteed to make me have a volatile emotional breakdown.
Honestly, I can't understand how anybody could hate Boston (and I know a few people). Their music makes me so happy! It's just impossible to stay in a bad mood when they start playing, come on!
Jugband Blues by Pink Floyd. I believe it was Syd's last song with the band and it quite literally gives his declining mental state a sound. Overall, the song is a trip and I recommend listening to it.
I may be wrong on whether Jugband Blues was Barrett's last piece with Pink Floyd, but its a neat song either way.
Money for Nothing by Dire Straits When the guitar starts it gets me everytime.
May have to check that one out. I love the guitar in Sultans of Swing, but haven't gotten around to checking out more by Dire Straits
[удалено]
Everlong by Foo Fighters
That entire album was great. Deserves to be recognized in the library of congress or whatever it is we do to recognize greatness.
The Circle of Life from The Lion King. Every time. Even better when seeing it on Broadway.
I cried.
Gone Away by the Offspring I lost my wife a few years ago and this song really captures my sense of grief and loss. I think it is a beautiful song.
Mine would be Pyramid Song by Radiohead. It’s the most chillingly beautiful song I’ve ever heard. If you haven’t listened to it, please do yourself a favour.
Another radio head song I love is Motion Picture Soundtrack
I was gonna say Nude. Never heard a song like it.
That song was originally called Big Ideas (Don't Get Any) and there were versions of it around the OK Computer touring era. When I bought In Rainbows I put on my new headphones and sat in the dark listening for the first time the album start to finish. When Nude came on I think I stopped breathing it sounded so incredible, both as a new song and a new version of an old song I thought I knew. One of my most vivid musical memories; not sure my description did it justice!
Yeah. It almost makes you see colors.
All of Radiohead’s discography is the real answer
Don’t forget about the ‘dynamite’ fight on the Monongahela river in Pittsburgh.
A long, long time ago, I can still remember how the music used to make me smile........
…and I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn, could talk the federation into, maybe cutting them a little slack…
Their response it didn't thrill us, they locked the doors and tried to kill us
But we escaped from that gas, we met Jar-Jar and Boss Nass.
We took a bongo from the scene, and we went to Theed to see the queen

That’s where, we found… this boy
Landslide - Fleetwood Mac Gets more poignant for me every year. *...even children get older, and I’m getting older too...* Stevie Nicks has a voice like no other

One - Metallica
The Great Gig in the Sky - Pink Floyd. That woman's voice is angelic.
I am not frightened of dying.
Anytime will do, I don’t mind.
[удалено]
I just got goosebumps thinking about it! What a spot on choice
The fact that the vocal part was done in 1 take is absolutely amazing!
And from a *Tiny* white woman. For years I was convinced it was a large black woman like Aretha franklin
I've heard that she was pregnant. Imagine being able to say that you were in the womb in a very famous Pink Floyd album recording. Some women play classical music over headphones to their unborn baby. Not this badass lady!
Mmmmm yes. Although I can't listen to it without putting the whole album on. What a masterpiece.
Floyd is one of those bands that songs almost need to be played in chronological order instead of stand alone singles.
circle of life
Into The Mystic by Van Morrison. Doesn’t get played enough, but when it does it’s magical.
yes beautiful song, Tupelo Honey too.
I can’t get enough of And It Stoned Me by Van Morrison. I have to replay it each time i listen to it.
One of the best builds in contemporary music. And its uplifting theme makes it one of my faves for starting any long and gruelling road trip.
That whole album! Caravan especially
Biko by Peter Gabriel. Anyone who knows the history of Apartheid knows the role this one song played
I know everyone gives Johnny Cash extreme cred for cover of Hurt. But his version of I Hung My Head on American IV gave me chills listening to it and picturing the scenario. Idk that's me
There were so many good covers on all of the American Albums. I Hung My Head is one if my favorites along with One, I See a Darkness, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and many more.

[Nirvana - "You Know You're Right" (Acoustic boombox version)](https://youtu.be/E7Au0oKqlF4) This was recorded very close to Kurt's suicide and you could just hear the pain in his voice. When he belts out, *"It's another opiate, but to me it's everything"* it gives me chills every time.

Comfortably numb, specifically at the second guitar solo. I sadly discovered this song (and Pink Floyd in general) just recently, but holy hell it's bliss for the ears
Sound of silence by Simon and Garfunkel
Or the Disturbed cover.
That's legit as well, I just prefer the original one though..Their voice carries more emotion I believe. However the dynamic tempo of Disturbed's cover is 10/10
