soldier of fortune Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Have you ever listened to music, any genre and found that its made the hairs on the back of your neck? I'm sure you have, just thinking about this now listening to Nirvana's "You Know Your Right!" the first time i heard it i was reading "Heavier than Heaven", and had also read the album inlay which had said it was laid down in one take, and it was also the last time they guys saw Kurt alive. Even still to this day years later. It gets the hairs twitching. Over to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 For me, the first time i heard Halcyon + on + on by orbital just snapped me into focus on a bit of a terrible night, and since then its been one of the very few songs i can listen to in any mood in any situation and at any time and still makes me tingle a little bit whenever i hear it.

FireDownBelow Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Lightning Crashes by Live. When I'm kind of sad, that song just kind of washes over me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 For me, the first time i heard Halcyon + on + on by orbital just snapped me into focus on a bit of a terrible night, and since then its been one of the very few songs i can listen to in any mood in any situation and at any time and still makes me tingle a little bit whenever i hear it. this, still one of my favorites. i dug lush 3-1 for similar but lesser reasons, and fell in love with chicane for nearly doing this years later. its funny, ive a gym playlist on my ipod and there's some shit that really helps for weightlifting (Rage, Prodigy etc) and some that really gives me this second wind/runner's high when im running at night and feel like im on empty. mostly shit with a solid beat, the other night it was curtis mayfield's "move on up" and i felt like i just flew.

Iambaytor Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones always has an eerie quality that just makes me retreat into my own mind, same goes for Dream On by Aerosmith and Riders on the Storm by The Doors. They're always good for a midnight writing session when I need some inspiration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hakujin Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Have you ever listened to music, any genre and found that its made the hairs on the back of your neck?... I've had a few moments like that in my life, but the biggest was probably when I first heard the song "God" by Tori Amos. I can remember it like it was yesterday, I was in my room watching 120Minutes on MTV (so you know this was back in the day) and the video was debuting. The sound was like nothing I'd ever heard and the lyrics blew me away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HypnotizinChikns Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Sia's 'Don't Bring me Down', due to the circumstances, it started playing on the radio at a very low point for me, during a time you see in movies when everything just goes to shit, it was like someone punched me in the face and then said, "now roll the music!" Tori's 'Hey Jupiter-Dakota Version', I had heard the original and this one was just spooky after that. (it's the whole bit about the cupboards, the car *shivers*) Aphex Twin, 'Come to Daddy', I can't even listen to it, just creeps me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireDownBelow Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Since Nick mentioned workout songs... Lords of Acid are who I want playing when I'm on the tread mill. I ramp up the speed to match the beat and I can really get going. Other songs that give me that spaced feeling, Christian Woman by Type O Negative and Voodoo and Serenity by Godsmack. Dolphin's Cry gives me chills and makes me feel all mopey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alive she cried Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones always has an eerie quality that just makes me retreat into my own mind, same goes for Dream On by Aerosmith and Riders on the Storm by The Doors. They're always good for a midnight writing session when I need some inspiration. i gotta agree with paint it black and riders on the storm, the end byt the doors is another one. the ultimate one for me though is Dirt In The Ground - Tom Waits What does it matter, a dream of love Or a dream of lies We're all gonna be in the same place When we die Your spirit don't leave knowing Your face or your name And the wind through your bones Is all that remains And we're all gonna be We're all gonna be Just dirt in the ground The quill from a buzzard The blood writes the word I want to know am I the sky Or a bird 'Cause hell is boiling over And heaven is full We're chained to the world And we all gotta pull And we're all gonna be Just dirt in the ground Now the killer was smiling With nerves made of stone He climbed the stairs And the gallows groaned And the people's hearts were pounding They were throbbing, they were red As he swung out ofver the crowd I heard the hangman said We're all gonna be Just dirt in the ground Now Cain slew Abel He killed him with a stone The sky cracked open And the thunder groaned Along a river of flesh Can these dry bones live? Ask a king or a beggar And the answer they'll give Is we're all gonna be Yea yeah We're all gonna be just Dirt in the ground this is the version he did when i saw him last year, mindblowing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0xy01143 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 For some weird reason I stared humming this song.... Sort of weird when you read the lyrics... Little Bunny Foo Foo, Hopping through the forest Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head Down came the good fairy and she said "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head. I'll give you three chances, And if you don't behave I'll turn you into a goon!" The next day: Little Bunny Foo Foo, Hopping through the forest Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head Down came the good fairy and she said "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head. I'll give you two more chances, And if you don't behave I'll turn you into a goon!" The next day: Little Bunny Foo Foo, Hopping through the forest Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head Down came the good fairy and she said "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head. I'll give you one more chance, And if you don't behave I'll turn you into a goon!" The next day: Little Bunny Foo Foo, Hopping through the forest Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head Down came the good fairy and she said "Little Bunny Foo Foo, I don't want to see you Scooping up the field mice And boppin' 'em on the head. I gave you three chances And you didn't behave Now you're a goon! POOF!!" The moral of the story is: HARE TODAY, GOON TOMORROW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
