"Give Me One Reason" By Tracy Chapman. Classic amazing song, it's so soothing.

Also, "Fast Car" is a pretty awesome one too. I wouldn't mind listening to that one on repeat.

[pinkpiche]

Who are you people?

I accidentally posted this in the wrong thread:

"Give Me One Reason" By Tracy Chapman. Classic amazing song, it's so soothing.

I could go the rest of my life without ever hearing that one.  I'm pretty sure it's because I'm forced to listen to stations that play the same 25 songs repeatedly at my job.  My top 4 in terms of times played according to my itunes are...

Holland, 1945- nmh

Frontier Psychiatrist- The Avalanches

Ride into the Sun- VU

Spirit Ditties of No Tone- Deerhoof


However,  White Light/White Heat hasn't left my turntable in nearly 1 month, so any track off there too.  I'll say Sister Ray in a nailbiter.

[Wasteroo]

For right now, they are:

Everyone Choose Sides - The Wrens

Dirtywhirl - TV On The Radio

Two-Headed Boy, Untitled - Neutral Milk Hotel

[Trillian]

Recently: Could Well Be In by The Streets (thank you Jackie)

[Wasteroo]

Newest song of the now: Calcutta by Hopewell. That is some great guitar tone right there, bright and jangly while still maintaining a sharp edge of crunch.

[PECOAE]

nowadays:  eels - novocaine for the soul

and elliott smith - roman candle

Two 't's in Elliott, just so you know. 

I get nitpicky about my favorite artists.

[PECOAE]

damn, man, somebody else corrected me about that today and i still did it.

thanks.

[Wasteroo]

No worries.

You appreciate Elliott, so I forgive you.

[Ballard]

On the topic of the Eels- I remember I used to be able to listen to Trouble With Dreams on repeat for hours.

Guys, take it to PMs if you're not contributing something that applies to more than one person.

[SevenPinkerton]

i think Seven is better for that, the guitar tone in the verse is so breathtaking.

Definitely on my list. Along with Pillars.

[valley_parade]

Brick Wall Views - the Lawrence Arms

I'm that way with "Disaster March".

[Spinless]

i think Seven is better for that, the guitar tone in the verse is so breathtaking.

Definitely on my list. Along with Pillars.

Circles actually blew. Pillars was a good song, infact, I remember thinking that a lot of the third album was inspired. Nowadays, I think I spent far too much time listening to that band.

Edit: I say 'nowadays' because I'm not 15 anymore.

[SonofZ3]

Also, "Fast Car" is a pretty awesome one too. I wouldn't mind listening to that one on repeat.

I like listening to that on repeat when doing origami. Also "Ragas in Minor Scale" by Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass, I find it quite beautiful.

[Mev852]

Down to Rest by O'Death. They did a performance on my campus last semester and I really enjoyed them. It's kinda hard to describe exactly why, but I just love their sound.

See, I spent far too little time listening to this band. I think I'll happily spend the rest of my life making up for it. I love these guys with all my musical heart. <3

I can totally understand that. My work plays a new country station ALL THE TIME and I have to refrain from flipping out when I hear "Jesus Take the Wheel" for the 4th time in my shift D:

[Caspian]

Memory Leak by Nadja comes to mind straight away. So many layers, so long. SO AWESOME. Also their Thaumogenesis song/album, it's one hour long so It'd take a while to get bored of it.

Sigur Ros's Untitled #4, #6 and #8.

That's it, really. Too tired to provide any discussion on them or witty comments.

[phil51506]

Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy (probably my favourite song ever), and Wildlife Analysis (all the really good BOC songs are less than a minute long)
My Bloody Valentine - Come in Alone
Les Savy Fav - Hello Halo, Goodbye Glands
Tricky - Suffocated Love
Wire - Dot Dash

[pinkpiche]

The Knack - My Sharona

[just-another-andy]

After listening to old Explosions In the Sky, I have to say I could listen to that for a long time and be very very happy.
Oceansize do the same job but with some catchy vocals.


Dream Theater's Octavarium Lap steel guitar build up is also very listenable 

[imapiratearg]

I think there was a period of something like three or four weeks, where I did not take Built to Spill's Keep It Like a Secret out of the CD player in my car.  I could listen to that album for forever.

[De_El]

oH! Yes. Enthusiasm for Keep It Like a Secret is self-replicating.

[bucky_2300]

Klaus Flouride's Akiko. That song is the soundtrack to my late nights. No matter what I'm doing, it works. It's quiet and builds slowly, and is great for studying, reading, lying inert, having sex, anything.

[valley_parade]

My current fix is AmAnSet's "New Drifters II".

[Bahamutduo]

Funny how posts like this get people to actually sign up for the forum!

Big Wreck - That Song

[pinkpiche]

He's going the DISTANCE.. he's going for SPEEEEEED

"Handpocket" by Best Friends Forever

Even before I ever heard it "Chores" by Animal Collective was the song repeating in my head. It just took some weird guys named Panda Bear and Avey Tare to make it real.

[Shrinkydinks]

Mkay, first I would like to start off by saying that I do have a somewhat obsessive personality, so I do listen to songs on pretty endless loops a loooot. Also my boyfriend tells me I have horrible taste in music, so anyone who feels the same, it's cool, I just know what my brain thinks is amazing. I'm also pretty easily pleased.

Keane- Somewhere only we know (I have listened to this over 150 times in one day...), and almost anything off of Hopes and Fears, Untitled 1 did not make my ears happy
30 Seconds to mars - The Kill, Was it a Dream
Snow Patrol - Headlights
Relient K - Come Right Out and Say it
My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words
Motion City Soundtrack - Feel Like Rain
Maximo Park - Kiss You Better
The Killers - Jenny Was a Friend of Mine
Jeph Jacques - Homage Du Hum (I'm not a silly fangirl I swear, it's just really nice to listen to)
Hot Hot Heat - Goodnight Goodnight
Jason Mraz - Clockwatching
Fountains of Wayne - I-95
Five for Fighting - Superman
Fall Out Boy - I've Got All This Ringing in My Ears But None on My Fingers
Fair to Midland - The Wife the Kids and the White Picket Fence
Death Cab for Cutie - Passenger Seat
Coldplay - yeah I could listen to anything by coldplay forever and be happy... If I had to name one song it would be Trouble
BOYS LIKE GIRLS - Thunder
Auqualung - Easier to Lie
Anberlin - The Unwinding Cable Car
The All-American Rejects - Dance Inside
The Postal Service - Nothing Better
Panic! at the Disco - Build God, Then We'll Talk

Yeah I'm just a little emo kid inside. >.>

[De_El]

The current usage of the term "emo" will never stop bothering or ever seem funny to me.
See this thread. But don't post in it, because it's dead.

[Shadows Collide]

Cocteau Twins - Heaven or Las Vegas, Fifty-Fifty Clown, Otterley, Lazy Calm, The Thinner the Air etc.

Jesus, they could become my favorite band soon. Going to buy "Garlands", their debut, next.

That link isn't working for me sorry.

What is it supposed to lead me to?

Also, I don't think I'm emo, I use the term as that's what my family and friends all called me in highschool because of some of the music I listen to. Actually the term was really kind of bastardized from what it started as, it bothers me how the current meaning has become such a common place thing. I mean my Mom knows what it is...what the crap?

[Liz]

http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/topic,18721.0.html

Somehow the link got corrupted in his post. We had a discussion on what emo is.

[Shrinkydinks]

Ahh mkay, Yeah I know what emo was comparatively to what it is now.

I read the wiki on it one day when I was bored. Not saying that means I know it all but I get the general idea.

[imapiratearg]

However,  White Light/White Heat hasn't left my turntable in nearly 1 month, so any track off there too.  I'll say Sister Ray in a nailbiter.

Isn't that a Social Distortion album?

Well the wiki page isn't exactly accurate at all. Their stuff about Jimmy Eat World and all that is horrendously inaccurate.
But as long as you know that what's going around nowadays isn't emo but probably pop-punk/pop-rock, you should be okay.

[Shrinkydinks]

It was like 2 years ago when I read it so it might be different now because I don't remember reading anything about Jimmy Eat World at all.

I do grasp the concept of what it was at that point in time though.

[lonewolfsis04]

Candlebox-10,000 Horses

The song is like, ten years old, but it's a classic. The album in general is just amazing.

The Starting Line- The Best of Me

The band itself isn't so much my cup of tea, but the acoustic version is quite addicting.

Oomph!-Träumst Du

Beautiful song, if you know the translations it makes it so much better. The harmony in the chorus is the icing on the chocolate covered strawberry cake.

...I'm cybersmacking you right now.   

Velvet.  Underground.

[imapiratearg]

Ow, hey!  I figured that out, eventually, when I was reading about them on Wikipedia after downloading The Velvet Underground & Nico.

I could listen to "Tonight I Have to Leave It" and "Very Loud" by the Shout Out Louds on repeat, for hours and hours.

[Beastmouth]

Isn't that a joke?


Yeah, I remember senior year I listened to WL/WH every single night, and usually during the day

[Divide by Zero]

Last fall, I did this with "Leave You Far Behind" by Lunatic calm for two or three weeks. I got pretty sick of it at the end, though.

Occasionally I'll do this with "Supermassive Black Hole" by Muse. I may never get tired of that song, as long as I don't overdose on it.

When I want to feel numb or if I'm vacuuming, I'll put some My Chemical Romance on infinite loop. The most recent song of theirs that I've done that with is "The Sharpest Lives". Before that was "Teenagers".

About a year ago I did that with "Ain't Nothing Wrong with That" by Robert Randolph and the Family Band.
