Title: Songs you consider flawless
Post by: Selkie on September 06, 2010, 03:06:24 PM
Not a song that you just really love (though obviously they can often end up being one in the same), but a song in which you think every aspect is great. The melody, the lyrics, the balance, the tone, emotion, etc.

I'll start it off...

The Who - Love, Reign O'er Me

It is the greatest song ever recorded, and the finale to the greatest album The Who ever recorded.

I personally think it's too repetitive  akudood;

These songs aren't memorable enough (i.e. I like them but I can't remember most of the song) but have some damned great moments:

Yes - Heart of the Sunrise

The only flaw in that one is that it was broken into two parts on the album. Why would you do that, Phoenix? Why?

It probably doesn't fit in well here and I'm sure many would disagree, but...

Best trance song I have ever come across: it makes me feel as if the world is starting over again[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/v/wTSBtmoqwFM?fs=1&hl=en_US&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6[/youtube]

I guess when I hear flawless, I think of something where I wouldn't get the urge to pinpoint and feel like a particular instrument or vocal line needs to be added or removed.  Nevertheless, this song is absolutely perfect in every way. Flawless as it swells and builds and eventually overflows at the end.

I think the majority of songs I like are flawless in their own ways ;_;
So I've just picked the ones that have been with me without losing their touch:
