Your top ten songs.....

[jasedee]

Has anyone ever thought about this?

It's a tuff one, but I have been trying to compile mine for some time.....Yes, I am very bored.

Here is what I have so far....in no particular order (yet), and not quite finished

* Lou Reed - Perfect Day
* Jeff Buckley - Lover, you should've come over
* Simon & Garfunkel - America
* Mazzy Star - Fade into you
* Tori Amos - Cornflake Girl
* Aesop Rock - Daylight
* Gomez - We havent turned around
* Any song by Radiohead (Too hard to chose just one)
* Metallica - Master of Puppets
* Hmmmm....only one more to go

Also, definately something by Radiohead, but hard to narrow it down. I will keep adding/editing to this post to come up with the final list

Anyone else wanna try? Go on, I dare ya!

:)

[Juho L]

Ten tracks is too few... I'll pick some extra. I'll try to put these in some sort of semi-chronologica/logicall order:

Hallucinogen - Gamma Goblins

My all time favourite psytrance track.

Pink Floyd - Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun

The track that lured me from psytrance to Pink Floyn and from there to prog rock. I heard a remix of this track on one radio program called Avaruusromu and it got me studying more about Pink Floyd.

King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man

One of the first prog rock tracks I heard. It's good so it has to be progressive.

Pleiadians - Meter

One of the last psytrance favourites.

ELP - Hoedown

Track that caught my interest towards ELP. The national radio broadcasted a programme called Progey?, which was a program that lasted from 0:00AM to 6:00AM and it was dedicated to progressive rock.

ELP - Tarkus

The prog rock track that got me realising what progressive rock means. Brilliant!

ELP - Karn Evil 9

The next big prog track after Tarkus.

Weather Report - Black Market

Got me listening to Weather Report and fusion jazz. Nice groove. Guaranteed WR.

Absoluuttinen nollapiste - Sukututkimus lannistaa

The track that started Absoluuttinen nollapiste fanaticsm.

Absoluuttinen nollapiste - Suvannossa ylpe? ilme I-V

My all time favourite track set. A one piece consisting of five tracks. The most beautiful, dramatic, sad and ironic piece of music ever created.

Jean-Pierre Kusela - Naurava kulkuri

Always make you amused. 100% guarantee to work.

YUP - Pahassa paikassa

This track got me listening to YUP. Nice.

YUP - Passiivista vastarintaa

One of the tracks that got me starting practicins singing.

Absoluuttinen nollapiste - Pyh? nynny I

This is just brilliant piece. Although I like more of the lyrical aspect on the demo version of this track (Magnesium), but still one of the top favourites.

Genesis - Dancing With the Moonlight Knight

Probably the most important prog rock song to me. It's just beautiful.

Dimmu Borgir - Mourning Palace

Black metal classic from Norway. The best track from this band. Somehow this track gradually earned it's place as a classic.

Cradle of Filth - The Forest Whispers My Name

British black metal. Same thing as with Dimmu Borgir's Mourning Palace.

King Diamond - Voodoo

I had heard this track several times years ago when my cousin bought the album Voodoo. This track came back to my mind few months ago so I dug up some King Diamond.

Stevie Wonder - Superstition

No comments needed.

[jasedee]

It is quite hard to narrow it down to just 10.......

Good idea to give some story behind your choices too!

You mean the intro track from puritany 8O Mustis is very talented like that.

[Juho L]

You mean the intro track from puritany 8O Mustis is very talented like that.

The whole album is a killer (pasta)! By the way the phaser on Kings of The Carnival Creation sounds like Virus phaser...

In no particular order, from many different genres, subject to change periodically, they are:

Of course this is only representative of one sliver of the music I have put on my own mix tapes and CDs (of which the only rule I have is that every song in the mix has got to be good, NO FILLER!) in the past 14 years.

Maybe I'm just an indecisive old bastard! :wink:

[Crickett]

Top ten in no particular order.


1.-Blind Willie Johnson- Dark Was the Night

If I drank the koolaide and saw God, and said God put soul into a song, then across Blind Willie'e lips said song came.

2.Godspeed you! Black Emporer-Moya

While most people cannot stomach a full 20-30 minute Godspeed song this bite size godlett puts a massive amount of energy into 10:51 seconds. A new type o prog, massive and orchestral...

3.Boards of Canada - RoyGBIV

From my longest song to the shortest song .For some damn reason I instantly revert to a happy childhood moment when I hear this 2:31 second electro-minuette. If you have not heard the entire "Music Has the Right to Children" record you are missing out.

4.Rush-Lessons
First song I could play all the way through on guitar and subsequently the first time I ever hit some green.

5.Frou Frou - Let Go...

I love her voice and the beautiful composition of this song.

6. The Cinematic Orchestra- Science Fiction Jazz--

A mellow ambient jazz masterpiece from a band who has a superhuman drummer that wipes his arse with Mike Portnoy/Neil Pert brand toilet paper--- See the song for Flite audible delusions of a 3 armed drummer.

7. Jeff Buckley - Satisfied Mind
Have truer words ever been spoken?

8.Meshuggah - Rational Gaze

When I need metal and my heart rate upped 20 bpm on the treadmill... Nothing like metal in 6/8

9. Catherine Wheel - Black Metallic
Nothing like that early nineties shoogazer wall o sound. I love this band.

10. meat beat manifesto - simulacra
Spooky, Ambient.... thats my kinda style.

I tried to name a bunch of stuff people may not have heard of before. I have another top ten everyone has heard of. Which includes the likes of Radiohead,NIN,Massive Attack,FLA,Delierium,SRV,Satriani,Dream Theatre,Rush...etc

Top record of all time goes to OK CPU by raidohead with Dark Side of the Moon a Close second.


[/b]

[Merlot]

3.Boards of Canada - RoyGBIV

From my longest song to the shortest son .For some damn reason I instantly revert to a happy childhood moment when I hear this 2:31 second electro-minuette. If you have not heard the entire "Music Has the Right to Children" record you are missing out.


Love this song also. i think you hit the feeling right on the spot!

[jasedee]

Wow, I started this thread so long ago, who woulda thought my musical tastes would've changed so much??? ;)

I think my top ten would now have some King Crimson, Jethro Tull, YES, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Nick Drake.....'

I guess I have to wait until I am old and grey before my final top ten is complete

[Danny Vandal]

Wow, can't believe it took me so long to spot this thread!

Some nice metal choices, although I prefer the grim Darkthrone style Black Metal to the over-produced Dimmu/CoF stuff (Spiritual Black Dimensions is a pretty underrated album though - Astennu's guitar playing is fantastic!). In light of that, here's my list...

1. Burzum - Det Som Engang Var (otherworldly Black Metal: probably responsible for me getting into Trance!)

2. Aborym - Here is No God (Black Metal band does a sort of dark industrial house thing in spectacular fashion)

3. Destroyer 666 - Raped (Modern Australian band doing old skool thrash metal better than anybody back in the day ever did!)

4. Tomcraft - Loneliness (massive lead line, say no more)

5. The Eagles - Hotel California (perfectly produced, something new added to the song in exactly the right places)

6. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean (likewise)

7. Led Zeppelin - Friends

8. Mercyful Fate - A Dangerous Meeting (\m/)

9. Darkthrone - Crossing the Triangle of Flames (the riff at the end is pure evil, haha)

10. Heaven 17 - Temptation (don't laugh, it's a great pop song, but there's something sort of sinister about it too. I've loved it since I was a little kid)

[Timo]

Gouryella - Ligaya (the promo version without the shitty vocals, awesome track of its era)
U2 - Where the Streets Have No Name (awesome intro, great tune)
U2 - Walk On
Prodigy - Firestarter (fantastic when played live - just search for Prodigy Firestarter Glastonbury on youtube...meh, here y'are, i did it for you, enjoy!: http://youtube.com/watch?v=WRtyG1hajqk )
Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing (loved it all the way from when I was little. Knopfler sure can play guitar!)
Rank 1 - Airwave
Tiesto - Suburban Train
Syntax - Pray (awesome tune, loved Syntax - Bliss (Wrecked Angle mix) too, underrated band, one of modern music's great tragedies that they split)
Vangelis - Rachel's Song (loved his blade runner stuff, too)
Oasis - Some Might Say (brings back college memories!)
Ennio Morricone - Gabriel's Oboe (from "The Mission" soundtrack)
Marc n Ace - Conquest Paradise
Hans Zimmer - Gladiator end title sequence (inc. Now We Are Free) (first time I saw/heard it I could hardly breath)
System F - Out Of The Blue (System F's 5am mix) (pre-millennium supersaw heaven!)

Damn, I could fuckin go on, and on, and on....

[Danny Vandal]

Prodigy - Firestarter (fantastic when played live - just search for Prodigy Firestarter Glastonbury on youtube...meh, here y'are, i did it for you, enjoy!: http://youtube.com/watch?v=WRtyG1hajqk )

Just to plug my mate's band - if you get chance to see a Prodigy tribute called Jilted Generation, do it! My mate plays guitar, but they've done a couple of gigs with Gizz Butt taking over for a few songs :D
