powerful songs you just can feel - Page 2 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

skinnymofo · 12-14-2004, 08:01 PM

id have to agree farther up when most of the NIN catalog is moving in some way, mostly really saddening
the more prominent of the NIN have got to be , Hurt, Gave Up, The Downward Spiral (song, not whole album)

Other songs i would have to Say "Metro" by System of a Down, i read the lyrics to this one without music and it nearly brought a tear to my eye.

Then theres a lot of the Alice in chains Dirt album thats pretty moving, most already being mentioned earlier

Jeremy, by PJ
and this one may sound funny but, Iron Man the Sabbath version and the remade busta rhymes/ozzy version "This means war (Iron Man)"

Suave · 12-14-2004, 08:24 PM

Burden In My Hand - SoundGarden
One Mic - Nas
BMBBO - Trevor Rabin
Knockin' On Heaven's Door - Bob Dillan (or the cover by Bon Jovi/Bruce Springsteen/Eric Clapton)
What A Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong
Take A Picture, After The Rain - Mya

I generally choose artists that I like to listen to by how much I "feel" their songs, and so there are a LOT of songs that illicit that type of response in me, but the ones listed are the big ones.

Ben Harper - God Fearing Man

Nothing like Ben Harper jamming on his Weissenborn (lap guitar) singing about fearing god. I was tripping my ass off on some shrooms one night in college with a bunch of buddies. My friend put this song on and It just clicked something in my head.

I guess Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb has the same sort of, I was really fucked up listening to it and it just made sense type of feeling even now..

Exactly!

Isis - Carry

Isis - Hym
...

The list can go on. Actually the Panopticon and Oceanic CDs are masterpieces.

skinnymofo · 12-16-2004, 05:11 PM

im going to add another
Motorheads Overkill and a few others of theirs when loud i get all teary eyed its just so awesome. Not emotionally moving but just wow.
Nativity in black the song does this for me too Sabbath or Primus version.

godxzilla · 12-17-2004, 11:12 PM

james taylor - fire and rain

that has got to be the most moving song made.

snowy · 12-18-2004, 12:01 AM

Oh God...not two days ago I was listening to U2's new album, specifically the song "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own," which is about Bono's dad who passed away. And there are a few lines that had me sobbing:

Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me...

Where are we now?
I've got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone...

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own...

I'm afraid every time I hear this song I cry...I usually at least tear up...I'm tearing up right now...and it's their next single. Sigh. I can't win.

zensheep · 12-19-2004, 12:02 AM

When I think of songs that I can feel, I always come up with two songs by Saves the Day; Firefly and Nightingale. Firefly because only Chris Conley could make a song about drunken sex in an alley sound so damn beautiful, and Nightingale because of the passion oozing from both the lyrics and the music. Just listening to these songs keeps me convinced that he is one of the best lyricists in modern music.

BlitzkriegKommt · 12-20-2004, 06:58 PM

Keine Lust, Ohne Dich and Mein Teil by Rammstein are one of the most strongest songs I ever heard. In Mein Teil, you can actually dissolve in the song, just forget about everything around you. Dunno if it makes sense.

K-Wise · 12-20-2004, 07:29 PM

Flugufrelsarinn, Ny batteri, Hjartad hamast, Vidrar vel til loftarasa, Olsen olsen by Sigur Ros off of Agaetis byryjun...I always listen to those 5 in a row and usually by the end or middle of Olsen Olsen I'm asleep heh. The music is just so beautiful and calming. Might not make sense that a song that moves me puts me to sleep but I love to sleep to music sometimes heh.

Asta!!

Harry Cox · 12-20-2004, 07:53 PM

SRV- Little Wing
Van Halen- Dreams
Led Zeppelin- In My Time Of Dying
Led Zeppelin- Since I've Been Loving You
Pink Floyd- Wish You Were Here
Metallica- Creeping Death

obediah · 12-20-2004, 10:58 PM

Roy Orbison's take on - The Comedians
Nick Cave - The Mercy Seat
16 Horsepower - The Partisan

These these three songs really bare themselves. Of course there are others, but the shorter the list the better chance someone will check out one of the songs.

K-Wise · 12-21-2004, 05:02 AM

Saw the video for The White Stripes "Jolene" tonight on Subteranean and I'll add that one to my list.

Asta!!

impulse03 · 12-26-2004, 03:22 PM

Newsong- Christmas Shoes

it's in the christmas spirit so yea. but wow, this song brought my gf to tears the first time we heard it. im not a big fan of christmas music but i can sit and listen to this for hours. by far the most touching song i have heard in the past few years.

shadowalker · 12-26-2004, 06:39 PM

Phantom of the Opera - Phantom of the Opera, Wishing you were somehow here again, All I ask of you, All I ask of you (reprised) and Music of the night.

edit: also agree with the song above me about the christmas music.

World's King · 12-26-2004, 06:52 PM

Deftones - Minerva, Digital Bath, Rickets, Mascara, Engine No. 9, Change (In the House of Flies)...

Just make that every Deftones song.

SiN · 12-27-2004, 02:57 PM

K-Wise · 12-27-2004, 03:06 PM

DEI37 · 12-27-2004, 07:03 PM

Brad Paisley & Allison Krause - Whiskey Lullabye

aintyoboyfriend · 12-27-2004, 07:24 PM

One of my favorite songs, by The Marvelous Three. Butch Walker, the lead singer still plays it live, on the piano, even though it was a rock power anthem.

It's about the guys in the band breaking up, it was the last song they wrote, recorded and performed live together:

Cigarette Lighter Love Song

I know you're not asleep
I can feel you moving over there
You've been playing with the seam
In your worn out underwear
My lips are raw as hell
From biting on them just to stay awake
It's not like I'm gonna need them, you won't be around
To see them bleed and break

Chorus:
All that I do, comes back to you
So I'll just think about you 'til there's nothing in my head
All I can do, is try not to screw this up again
And just be friends, I'd rather be dead

I drove out of east Atlanta
With a headache the size of my car
I called to say I was okay
'Cause I know how you are
I'm like a movie without an ending
You know I've got nowhere to go
And it makes me wanna throw up
To see you wanna give up
More than you'll ever know

Bridge:
Everything's supposed to have a happy ending
But the record keeps skipping and the needle keeps bending
Like the road I'm driving to the bridge that has no end
I wanna take back everything that I've broken
But the bridges behind me are burning and smokin'
I guess this is the end

El Kaz · 12-27-2004, 08:20 PM

Hmmm... Phil Collins - Can't Stop Loving You

...What?

streak_56 · 01-24-2005, 01:43 PM

I'm "borrowing" some people have already said

Neil Young- Heart of Gold
GnR- November Rain
Alice Cooper- Hell is living without you
Bon Jovi- Wanted Dead or Alive
Eric Clapton- Layla (acoustic)
The Who- See Me, Feel Me
Shinedown- 45
Green Day- Good Riddance (Time of your life)
Kansas- Dust in the Wind
Rush- 2112 Overture
The Rolling Stones- Gimme Shelter
Jimi Hendrix- All Along the Watchtower
Pink Floyd- High Hopes

thats all I have for now

K-Wise · 01-24-2005, 08:18 PM

Sweet you mentioned High Hopes off of The Division Bell...I will second your Pink Floyd and Shinedown Tracks and add

Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb

and

Shinedown - Burning Bright

Asta!!
