8 of Your Favorite Songs

Singles, just songs this time. 8 of them. In no particular order. Same sort of deal as the album thread.

It's time for bangers, songs that slap. Songs that have your favorite mood, favorite flow, favorite rhythm, melody and all that. A more diverse range of "holy fuck yes" when it's not brought down by anything else. Pass the AUX cord tier. For musicians, try instead posting the things you take inspiration from instead of posting your own music.

It'll be much easier this time for you peeps who strongly prefer movie, video game or anime soundtracks.


King Crimson โ€“ Starless
Mogwai โ€“ Mogwai Fear Satan
Charles Mingus โ€“ Duet Solo Dancers
Camel โ€“ Wing and a Prayer
Joe Zawinul โ€“ Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
Sun Ra โ€“ Where Pathways Meet
My Bloody Valentine โ€“ When You Sleep
Coil โ€“ Fire of the Mind

It was quite difficult to choose just eight, but in the end, these were the chosen.

Dschinghis Kahn โ€“ Moskau
Easy Way Out โ€“ Low Roar
It Has To Be This Way โ€“ Jamie Christopherson
Hurt โ€“ Johnny Cash
Paint It Black โ€“ Rolling Stones
Deadman's Gun โ€“ Ashtar Command
Something About Us โ€“ Daft Punk
Health โ€“ Tears

(You know, these kind of threads are helping me discover an interesting spectrum of new songs so, for that, I give you all my thanks)

For this, I'm only going to include 1 song per artist. This'll make it more varied. For some of the songs in my collection, favoritism changes based on my mood, but I think these eight will certainly stand.

ABBA โ€“ Eagle
Johnny Hates Jazz โ€“ Shattered Dreams
MGMT โ€“ Time to Pretend
Oasis โ€“ D'You Know What I Mean
Sting โ€“ If You Love Somebody Set Them Free
Tears for Fears โ€“ Sowing the Seeds of Love
The The โ€“ This Is the Day
U2 โ€“ Staring at the Sun

There's a couple of songs I had in mind when I first entered the thread, but some of them didn't have YouTube videos (couldn't find anything for Kendrick Lamar's "Untitled 05" from his Untitled Unmastered album, probably best to check Spotify for that) or they're jumbled and split into several (the entirety of King Crimson's "Lizard"), so here's songs I could find. And just like Carrie, I'll stick to one song from a musician/band.

Pink Floyd โ€“ Fat Old Sun
Yes โ€“ Siberian Khatru
King Crimson โ€“ Cirkus
America โ€“ Ventura Highway
Tears for Fears โ€“ Pale Shelter
Rush โ€“ Subdivisions
The Outfield โ€“ Your Love
Kendrick Lamar โ€“ Complexion

I like quite a lot of songs, so I'll try my best to list eight of my favorites. I'll go for ones that I think "aren't common," if you understand what I mean when you go through this

Queen -- Brighton Rock
Michael Jackson -- Leave Me Alone
Freezepop -- Less Talk More Rokk
Gorillaz -- All Alone
David Bowie -- New Killer Star
Avril Lavigne -- Sk8er Boy
Sugar Ray -- When It's Over
Metro City -- Shake It
