Title: Songs that move you
Post by: Selkie on July 23, 2009, 09:53:16 AM
Do you have any songs that convey so much emotion in you that you want to just explode?

For some reason, Dosed, by RHCP makes me extremely depressed.

And Tiptoe by Goldfrapp almost always uplifts me when I hear it.

"Love, Reign O'er Me" by The Who

It's not my favorite song ever, but it's probably the most emotional song I can think of. It's my absolute favorite Who song, and it's one of the many reasons that Quadrophrenia is my favorite Who album. Jesus, when Daltry just wails out "LOOOOOOOOVE, REIGN O'ER ME" so hard his voice cracks, that just gets me every time.

The ending music the Mother 3, due to the plot circumstances, is simply haunting.  :(
Thumbs up to ShÃ...Âgo Sakai.

Many, many songs move me. You know what's really powerful? Nirvana's MTV Unplugged album. You can easily hear Kurt Cobain bleeding his emotions into that album. After listening to the whole thing from start to finish, it's pretty haunting.

there is only one song i can think of but i don't know the name of it or how it goes which is troubling because i heard it today a boy named Taylor gave it to me on a cd "Carly's Mix" and I can't find it.

The song that probably has the most emotional impact on me is Bob Dylan's "Masters of War." It's just such a moving song - the content matter is so dark and it really stirs your emotions.

Also, something about "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin just pumps me full of energy.

For some reason I don't get the full effect out of that song anymore unless I'm the one playing it. Maybe I was in a particular mood when I learned it on my guitar and playing it brings back those feelings, I'm not sure.

This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody) by Talking Heads.

It's best when you hear it on David Byrne's Live from Austin Texas cd. The string arrangements compliment the song so well and give it way more power.
