Rage Against The Machine - Killing In the Name
Ain’t No Sunshine - Bill Withers
That man has pipes.
I keep thinking about my MiL when I hear this song - “I don’t like him”. She was in the same circles as Bill back in the day - apparently he was not a nice guy to women. I turn the volume up when it’s on because the song’s damn good, but still…
The Killers - Mr. Brightside for me. Such a good song
Hasn’t left the UK top 100 singles chart for 372 consecutive weeks! Longest charting single of all time.
I blame the streaming algorithms for that one. It’s certainly a banger of a song but things like You Tube music can’t help but it insert it into any vaugley guitar based auto playlist I might listen to.
The Prodigy - Voodoo People
Planet Claire - B52’s
Own Private Idaho!
Oh ye gods, so many. But for the purpose of this thread…
Only One, by Slipknot.
Smashing Pumpkins - Cherub Rock
100% genetically encoded
Porceilna of the Vast Oceans starts so quiet I always turn it up and then see if I can keep it up once it gets loud.
Yes! That was their opener when I saw them a few years back. I love love love longer songs that start off quiet/delicate and gradually ramp into the heaviness.
Self Control by Laura Branigan
The Negative One by Slipknot
Lose yourself to Dance
The only songs that come on are the ones I specifically play and the volume is always perfectly adjusted.
Anything off of Parliament - Clones of Dr Funkenstein. Truly an underappreciated gem.
Postmortem by Slayer. Especially the ending, holy shit.
Sigur Rós — Sæglópur Skream — Exothermic Reaction Caterina Barbieri — Gravity that Binds Thom Yorke — The Eraser (especially the last minute of this song)
Toto - Africa
ELO - Mr. Blue Sky
Bon Jovi - Livin’ on a Prayer
