Interesting Thread

 

No offense my dear friends, but I'm going to be disappointed with this thread.
You like them or dislike them? It seems that mainstream has been so successful. Maybe better to leave now.

OMFG! I've been lonely too. I've been keeping it for so long. I can't hold it anymore. I hate it when she left to be with my best friend. FCK I'm lonely too. TALK TO ME TOO INTRONINJAA

 

I used to be lunatic from the gracious days
I used to be woebegone and so restless nights
My aching heart would bleed for you to see
Oh but now...
(I don't find myself bouncing home whistling buttonhole tunes to make me cry)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word

(The lover speaks about the monsters)

I used to have demons in my room at night
Desire, despair, desire... Sooo many monsters!
Oh but now...
(I don't find myself bouncing home whistling buttonhole tunes to make me cry)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me in silence
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word

(They were being really crazy
They were on the come.
And you know what mummy?
Everybody was being really crazy.
Uh huh. The monsters are crazy.
There are monsters outside.)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me in silence
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word
Outside the word

 

Lol good stuff...feels like a soap opera

 

Lovely thread! Out of my head (in no particular order):

Wish you were here (Pink Floyd)
Comfortably Numb (Pink Floyd)
Hurt (Nine Inch Nails)
Roads (Portishead)
Poems (Nearly God)
Brother (Alice in Chains)
Nutshell (Alice in Chains)
Etched Headplate (Burial)

and this whole album:

 

WARNING - EXTREMELY DANGEROUS​

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED​

 

Poems, yeah, forgot about that nearly god album, superb tune indeed!!

 

Disintegration Loop 1.1 consists of one static shot of lower Manhattan billowing smoke during the last hour of daylight on September 11th, 2001, set to the decaying pastoral tape loop Basinski had recorded in August, 2001. Shot from Basinski's roof in Williamsburg Brooklyn, this is an actual documentary of how he and his neighbors witnessed the end of that fateful day. It is a tragically beautiful cinema verite elegy dedicated to those who perished in the atrocities of September 11th, 2001

 

Anything by this guy, for the fact that it exists:

 

"I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like… tears in rain. Time to die."

 

this one still turns me into a total emo

 

as if it was made for it, song is from 2000

 

I so rarely venture onto the forums, but am enjoying this thread. Best wishes to all....

 

My modest contribution here: these two are killers ... I use them to get into the "right mood"...

 

“...Singing oh you were going to be my life
Damn it oh, oh you were going to be my life...”

 

"Hey, ain't life wonderful?
Wonderful,
wonderful,
wonderful...
Isn't it wonderful now?"

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

Hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words that make me wanna cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world's so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
Tell me everything is wonderful now

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all okay
I laugh aloud so my friends won't know
When the bell rings I just don't wanna go home

Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful someday

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

No
No, I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
No
No, I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't wanna hear you say
That I will understand someday
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna hear you say
You both have grown in a different way
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna meet your friends
And I don't wanna start over again
I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Some days I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now...

I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

 

This whole album is so beautifully somber, it brought me back from one of the darkest places I've ever been in, in my life.
