Songs that blow you away

[GartarkMusik]

Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. Especially the recording conducted by Herbert von Karajan.

It embodys the triumph of a nation in the face of overwhelming aggressor.

Plus there aren't many pieces for a full orchestra, all churchbells of an entire city and an artillery regiment.

Karajan is an amazing conductor. Him and Bernstein are my favorites.

 

[Mr. 47]

The Strokes - Under Cover of Darkness
Jasmine Ash - Lulls (Was in that weird Nessan Sentra commercial with the bubbles.)
Cage the Elephant - Ain't No Rest for the Wicked
DeVotchKa - How it Ends
Mad World - Gary Jules
U2 - I'll Go Crazy if I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
Sam Sparro - Black and Gold
The Beatles - Revolution
The Beatles - Come Together
Kashmir - Led Zeppelin
Not a big fan of rap, but Mickey Avalon - Stroke Me

More or less in that order. Under Cover of Darkness is an eargasim.

 

[Jillian Andes]

The entirety of Iamamiwhoami's works so far. They flow so well together, and the sound is unlike anything I've heard, really. She's definitely my favorite artist as of late. o, u-2, t, and ;john are my favorite tracks.
Here's a playlist of all her songs:

The Beatles "because" and "strawberry fields" these songs make me want to cry.
