Reco-s

Anything to get past the earlier post, I thought I would put up some of the stuff that I listen to. Many a time, I find it hard to find good music, and if you find yourself in the same rut, maybe this will help you.

1. Meatloaf & Marion Raven – It’s All Coming Back To Me Now: Personally, I really like it. It’s one of those slowish rock songs, with a lot of piano. But what makes it brilliant is the duet between Meatloaf and Raven, it’s beautifully put together.
2. Oasis – Masterplan: Known to most as emotional or “cry-ey” song makers , Oasis fail to disappoint with another similar rendition. But hey, it’s still really good. It’s a very new song, and will do well on the charts. A must hear.
3. Christina Aguilera – Hurt: Yeah fine, everyone considers her to be one of the “Britney-Spears” types, but no one can deny her ability to sing. Hurt is an okay song technically, but Christina Aguilera’s voice will just blow you away. Shit, she is awesome. It starts of as a piano acoustic, and then moves into some drums and violin. I really enjoy listening to it.
4. The Scorpions – Hurricane 2000: Ali made me listen to this, and the intro just makes me listen to it over and over again. It’s a re-make of the Scoripions-hit, Rock You Like A Hurricane, but with an orchestra backing it. Again, brilliant.
5. Rascal Flatts – What Hurts The Most: This Tejas recommended to me, in his bid to tell me how he could relate so much to it. Sometimes, that’s what makes a song awesome, the fact that you can relate to every word. Anyway, it’s a good song. I like the lead singer’s voice.
6. Jimmy Eat World – Pain: I love the pace of this song, and the name “pain” is very daunting. I love listening to it!
7. Good Charlotte – Emotionless: A very emotion-full song – that’s why I like it.
8. Matchbox Twenty – Soul: I had to put an unheard-of Matchbox Twenty song to pay homage to my favourite band. This song is full of energy. Maybe you won’t like it when you hear it for the first time, but the words and the passion makes it a very close-to-the-heart song once you start liking it.
9. Snow Patrol Featuring Martha Wainwright – Set The Fire To The Third Bar: The new Snow Patrol song that really grows on you. This one has been on my playlist for quite some time. It once, meant a lot to me.
10. Razorlight – America: It’s a very nice song to listen. Just nice. I thought I did not like it, but then I heard it randomly and I was like “nice”.
    

A few hard songs which I love listening to at full volume when I am pissed off or when I require energetic inspiration:

1. Cobra Starship – Snakes On A Plane
2. 30 Seconds To Mars – The Kill
3. Shinedown – Save Me
4. Crossfade – Cold
5. 3 Doors Down – This Time (Tejas’ recommended)
6. My Chemical Romance – Helena
7. Incubus – Megalomaniac (Nishant’s recommended)
8. Tantric – Mourning
9. Silverchair – Tomorrow

Enjoy!

P.S. Any recommendations?
