learn to live and you may understand!

 

Yea, I'm about the same age as them. And I lived for 12 years in Bristol. Can't say more without name dropping

UB

 

Ok......UB has changed my mind....


anything by Right Said Fred

 

different tracks, different driving approach

twisty country lanes and a bit of right foot--Propoganda - duel

late night drives chris rea road to hell

jeff wayne war of the worlds

phil lynot & gary moore out in the fields

blondie atomic

dire straights r&j and private investigations

the home run

obscure 80,s or classics

mart

 

Depends on my frame of mind,

Wanted dead or alive-Bon Jovi
Cryin'- Joe Satriani (listening to it now)
Anything by Joe Satriani
Heaven-Bryan Adams
Marillion-Misplaced Childhood (album)
Or if you want real extremes and very moody
Adagio for strings-Samuel Barber
Moonlight Sonata-Beethoven

Dave

 

Has to be...Salt Tank - Eugina (saragosa sea is other mix)

Also...

BT - Flaming June
Sasha - Xpander

 

A couple that have already been mentioned:

All I Need - Air (French Band )
Another Man's Cause - The Levellers. An anti-war song, but it works the other way on me - I heard it and felt I would die for my country.

And, I know not why, but:

Wichita Lineman - Glen Campbell

First time I heard that a couple of years ago I got such a 'reaction' to it I was amazed, and not a little Really have no idea why, but I love that song.

come on Girls... what about the reasons for listing the tracks???

 

Comfort in Sound - Feeder

This was the second album from Feeder, and followed the suicide of Jon Lee. The title track is the best thing on it (though it's almost all excellent) and is the sound of a songwriter Grant Nicholas coming to terms with this loss in an introspective but ultimately triumphant manner.

As an alternative, Leave by REM - details a journey from the known into risk, doubt, and faith. And it's probably the loudest thing they've ever recorded, awesome for driving to.

 

more trance

gouryella -ligaya
plastic boy -live another life
basic dawn -pure thrust
nu nrg -dreamland

non-trance

feeder -just a day
lou reed -perfect day
the beatles -strawberry fields
jimi hendrix -little wing

 

Paul Van Dyk - For An Angel
Chicaine - Saltwater

 

I watched the program last night on Johnny Cash and found the 'Hurt' song / video pretty powerful, looks and sounds like a guy unloading a lifetime of pain & hurt in one song before he shuffles off this mortal - in the video he looks 101 not 71.

 

"Chicaine - Saltwater "

never heard it...

 

all these wonderful tracks - if only it was legal to download them .......

 

Some of these may sound a bit weird, but I have my reasons

Backstreet Boys - Show me the meaning (This was mine and my ex-girlfriends song....)

The Farm - Altogether now (For all the people who fought for our country in the World Wars)

Puddle of Mudd - Control (Another ex-girlfriend song....but for completely different reasons!)

Creed - My Sacrifice (No reason really )

White Stripes - 7 Nation Army (Reminds me of when I went to the USA (Seattle) for some reason)

 

OK, I'll give a song & reason - sorry if it upsets anyone
Robbie Williams - Angels
This was the song that always seemed to be playing when I got the coach to Guys in London for baby scans - I was told my baby had a very serious heart defect (Hypoplastic left heart syndome - basically only had 1/2 a heart) So I had to be monitiored & have the baby in Guys so they could operate as soon as he was born with a 70% chance of survival. I was in labour for longer than they anticipated so the operation was delayed for 3 days, 3 wonderful days (God this is bringign it all back) in which I could see my son Harry and for which I will always be grateful. He looked perfect and didnt need any special care, then the day of the operation and the worst day of my entire life. 10 hours pacing - well as much as I could having ended up with a c-section, then told baby is ok, went down to the recovery to be met by a very serious looking nurse...I'm sorry but he didn't make it. Time just seemed to stop and we held our son while they switched the life support off. I carried him through London to the Chapel of rest, the longest journey I have ever made it seemed, then we had to say goodbye. He would have been 5 in June, and I still can't listen to more than a few words of Angels without getting upset.
Thanks for listening people

 

Pele-sorry to hear of your sadness.

Porcelain by Moby was the first song i heard whilst coming round from an operation. Always makes me cry now

 

OK.

Chris De Burgh - Borderline
We used this as a backing track to a video we used to play to newbies doing there first tour of Ulster. It showed some pretty graphic stuff and funerals. One of the funerals was an ex opo of mine. Then I was second up to speak on the lecture, I used to be so feckin fired up.

U2 - One
Reminds me of the only person I every truely loved, and leaving her her. Nuff said.

Sunset - Traditional
Forget the Last Post, this one does me every Remeberance Sunday and always will.

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau - Welsh National Anthem
Brings me to tears everytime.

 

Barber's "Adagio for Strings" - William Orbit.......just close your eyes, and you disappear......

Papa New Guinea - something about the vocals and piano on that track......

Cafe del Mar - Energy 52........ the build up to the drop on the track is the best piece of modern musical composition I've ever heard - blows my mind away every time I hear it......

 

"Hardly getting over it" Husker Du from Candy Apple Grey, I think the title makes 'why' pretty obvious...

 

Elvis Presley - My Boy...

Powerful and emotive...

George Duke - Brazilian Love Affair

Makes me think of hot summer days, perfect beaches and glassy sets rolling in. Real "feel good" music.

Apparently its used to test the quality of hi-fi equipment.

 

Pele - reading that gave me goose bumps, very very very emotive
