Remember a few months ago when I disappeared?
Well, I came across three songs that really caught my interest, and that I listened to over and over during some of that time.
Two of them are really REALLY good songs, that also just happen to be pessimistic about humanity. ;D
You really gotta listen to the lyrics.
1. Sympathy For The Devil - Rolling Stones
This one I'd already heard, but this time I really listened to the lyrics.
Contrary to what is apparently popular belief, this song is NOT satanic.
Also you can ignore the video if you want. Its the only non-live one I could find.
Click!
2. Handlebars - Flobots
This became one of my favorite songs EVER.
Yes, its technically rap, but hardly so. Really listen to the lyrics.
Trust me, its a GOOD song! Even (ESPECIALLY) if you don't like rap!
And as a special request, I have to ask you to NOT watch the video the first two times you listen to it! ;D
Its a decent music video, but the song means so much more if you form a picture for yourself of what it means.
So, listen to it one or two times, heck even three, then watch the video if you like it enough.
Click!
3. Frontier Psychologist - The Avalanches
And to lighten the mood after those two, I listened to one of the trippiest songs I've even heard.
What type of song? Uhm...
uh... well...
A mix of... old movie-sounding lines... remixed-soundingly... put together?
See for yourself! ;D
Click!
So, what do you think of these songs?
The first one is a well known favorite.
The second is a less-known awsome one, thats different than usual stuff.
The third is... an unknown... different from EVERYTHING one...
