Songs you think are just beautiful.

[Jamous]

Ghost Love Score by Nightwish. To me this song is so moving that I'm hard pressed not to well up when I hear it. That and it has a lot of significance to myself and a former love.

The music from the games Okami, Aquaria and Flower is also wonderful to listen to.

Ahh, thank you you two fine, fine people.
My contribution has to be, however, these.

Spoiler: The Islander

Spoiler: Signal Fire

(Also SO much other stuff by Snow Patrol)
So damn beautiful.
I'm also going to put in a couple of others as links.
Rise Against, Swing Life Away http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7mZkt4bP5I
Rise Against, Roadside http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLmTJpnqxj4
Symphony X, Paradise Lost http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyvOJlX4ZkE
Slipknot, Vermillion Part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSnY6zjeRN0
And Finally, The Piano Tribute Conservatory's 'I Hate Everything About You', by Three Days Grace, cover. Unfortunately no youtube, but it's done beautifully.

i'd like to add this, it's so calming:

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

These are some of the greatest lyrics ever.

 

[ThePantomimeThief]

most recently I've been listening to a lot of post rock kind of stuff, so I'd like to share these beauties:

 

[Outright Villainy]

These are some of the greatest lyrics ever.

On the flip side you have some of the loveliest guitar ever, and lyrics that are gibberish. (he said he made em up on the spot.)
But damnit it feels like it's meaningful!

 

[James Stanbridge]

Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley.

 

[Miffmoff]

Thirteen Senses - Into the Fire

Especially with this video

 

[Red Right Hand]

So ive been listening to music all day and I got to thinking, most music sounds good, but throughout my life Ive had moments where I heard a song and for some reason or another, be it lyrics or just the melody itself, the song could either almost reduce you to tears, or inspire you more than you ever thought possible.

The song Im hooked to today is this one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4XskfT6vNY&feature=channel its fairly popular, and Ive had this experience with most modest mouse songs XD.

Anyways, I love it when I have this experience, so i wanted to see if anyone has an experience or a song that they feel the same way about, maybe I can find some new ones for my list through the escapist community .

Oh jesus, man, I fucking love Modest Mouse! They're so brilliant, what was the song you posted? The video apparently breaches copyright in my country. If it's Black Cadillacs then you are my favourite person ever.

[ilikepie59]

I'm not a Halo fanboy, but I think this song is so beautiful. I sometimes cry a little listening to it.

the music's amazing. the lyrics are crap.

 

[Nemu]

I LOVE this song... Salvatore Licitra is my favorite tenor (he's the guy with the beard), but I could listen to this forever...


This is just a gorgeous version of my fave song off of Arcade Fire's new album. Call it my newest love/obsession, it's still beautiful.

 

[BiffyClyroEqualsSex]

*snip of the Universal and Wish You Were Here*

My pick would be something surprisingly rocky for that whole "beautiful" category.


Complete with Spanish subtitles for some reason!

I'll agree with you on Bliss as well, such an immense song, if I'd have thought about it I would have added it to my list.

Well one song I find beyond amazing and would love to see it in either a FF or some rpg: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogMNV33AhCY&feature=av2e
