The title speaks for itself, does it not? I couldn't find one of these when I looked so I said I'd start one.

5. Meshuggah - Spasm (Nothing)
I've spent many a dark lonely night listening to the lyrics. Though they sound senseless, there's some beautiful imagery there when you listen closely. And it far surpasses any other Meshuggah by way of the musical aspect of it too.

4. The Divine Comedy - either Bad Ambassador (Liberation) or Death of a Supernaturnalist (Liberation)
Bad Ambassador's just a lovely song. Whereas the lyrics of Supernaturalist make me want to give Neil Hannon a hug. It's so sad. It's like an actual epitaph.

3. My W(h!)ine in Silence - My Dying Bride (Songs of Darkness, Words of Light)
Whenever I feel lonely it cheers me up. Makes me think there might be somebody I know who misses me too. I'm rather pathetic, eh?

2. Pain Of Salvation - Beyond The Pale (Remedy Lane)
The fact that the song tells a story is what I like most about this. And I love Gildenlow's voice, it's the shiznit particularly for dramatic shoutey music like this.It reminds me of a time in my life that I regret, yet at the same time kind of miss. The last verse made me listen over and over again:
'And I have always tried to calm things down,
Swallow down, swallow down
It's just another small thorn in my crown.
But suddenly one day there was just too much blood in my eyes
And I have to take this walk down Remedy Lane of the 'when's and 'why's.'

It's just very pretty.

1. Nine Inch Nails - Hurt (The Downward Spiral)
Because if it weren't for this song, my life would presently be meaningless, and I would have no reason to live. It's so beautiful, and all the more so since it changed everything forever.. *gets all nostalgic*..

since I don't really think about favourite "songs" I'll just list a few that I like a lot

Buried Inside - Chronoclast
40 minutes of Converge-meets-Neurosis apocalyptic metalcore bliss. The main melodies of this song are just wow.

The Mars Volta - Take the Veil Cerpin Taxt
Even thinking about the climax of this song makes my skin tingle.

Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring
hehehe...

Sigur Ros - Flugrufrelsarinn
Can't think of much to say about this one. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Sigur Ros - Hjartap Hammast
The chorus of this song makes me forget to breathe and blink and stuff.

This will never be accurate, but:

1. Jesu - Silver
2. Pink Floyd - In the Flesh?
3. Opeth - Master's Apprentices
4. Bad Religion - Generator
5. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - A Hymn to the Morning Star

This would be completely different if you ask me in an hour, but I'm sure Silver would still be there.

It's quite hard to not include Dev: http://www.last.fm/user/DOCTORANGELO/ch ... type=track

I'm knocking Arcturus off the list, this is number one. Because it changed my life. And because it's beautiful.

Trent's original is better though. :wink:

Eeeee! I don't like Patton now, but in my youth this was up there with my favourites. And even now I can't deny Goodbye Sober Day a listen now and again.

Now I'm lost. Yes. I'm lost in the music. Volta are unreal.

End Of Your Days - Evergrey (it's so hard to pick just one of theirs!)
La Villa Strangiato - Rush
Trail of Tears (live) - Eric Johnson
Moodswings - My Vitriol
Killer Bees - The Stills

In no order, and always changing, so this is probably already a false list!
