Theda Baratheon Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 so I thought I might as well post this as I thought it would be interesting to share what songs really just make you FEEL A LOT OF THE THINGS because I have been building up a spotify playlist for years called ''songs that make my heart hurt'' and wondered if anyone else has similar go-to songs if they want to have a bit of a EMOTIONS ARE HAPPENING RIGHT NOW. My big ones i'm gonna start on are Echo & The Bunnymen - The Killing Moon and Plainsong by the Cure and Candy Says by The Velvet Underground, especially the version with Antony from Antony and the Johnsons... so share yours please so i don't feel silly for starting this thread thank you x also i just really need to add more to my already too long playlist because why the heck not ya know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 The two that come to mind instantly for me are - Arcade Fire - Porno Bon Iver - Wolves The latter *might* be my favourite song of all time ( at least for now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theda Baratheon Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 Brilliant, thanks! I'm adding these to my playlist as well, definitely the sort of songs I'm after. I JUST WANT TO STEAL EVERYONES MEANINGFUL SONGS no no, I just love hearing new music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spockydog Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Here you go, Theda. Seafood - In This Light Will You Fight Me? I love this song, even though it's a bitter reminder of one of the biggest mistakes I ever made. Stick with it. Takes a while to get going, but get going it certainly does. I think you'll love it.

Raja Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Daughter - Love Really like that one too. Sigh. I wish they would tour Asia at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjm Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 M83's Outro The two that come to mind instantly for me are - Arcade Fire - Porno Arcade Fire have quite a few songs that are good for this sort of thing, personally I'd say the best is: Blur - Tender, a lot of the time large crowds aren't the best place to see songs played live but there are exceptions where having tens of thousands of people chanting the chorus together did feel very special. Radiohead - Black Star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, there's a band I haven't listened to in a long time. It is a good song. Clint Mansell - The Last Man ( Or literally any song from the soundtrack of The Fountain, tbh) I really should watch that film again sometime, I do remember the soundtrack being superb.

williamjm Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Picking a single Sigur Ros for this thread is almost as hard as spelling the name of one of their tracks correctly. I'm going to go with Staralfur. The Verve - Velvet Morning 6 minutes ago, Spockydog said: I shared a rehearsal studio with them back in the day. Was convinced they were going to be massive. Damn shame they never made it. Sadly there's a lot of bands that fall into that category. I've mainly listened to their first album out of their work, but I did like it.

I wish they would tour Asia at some point I was going to offer up Doing the Right Thing by Daughter but Love is great too. Also though And the Boys by Angus and Julia Stone but for me that's mostly cause of the time when I heard it. Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence cause it brings back nice childhood memories and all that. No One's Gonna Love You by Band of Horses, that version in particular And For Now I Am Winter by Olafur Arnalds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that song, but it's possibly one of my least favourite one from that album. Fossa is favourite one. It's still a very good album though.

The Wedge Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 "Al Bowlly's In Heaven" by Richard Thompson. A sorrowful and beautiful look into the mind of a discarded WWII vet, who dreams back to when "a uniform was a lucky charm that bought you the key to the city..." This live version has a lovely soprano sax by the recently departed Pete Zorn, in addition to Thompson's usual soulful acoustic picking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of the North Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I've always had a soft spot for Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenlyIsNotRight Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 There's a lot of things that could go here for being generally emotionally impactful and musically great, but if I had to go with something that just personally hits me every time, this is definitely it. The event that made me initially identify with it so much happened almost 4 years ago and yet it still gets me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
