Your favorite 5 acts regardless of era or genre. And your favorite 2 songs from them. Pick one of the songs to explain it's personal significance to you. Passion Pit - (To Kingdom Come) (Take a Walk) Vampire Weekend - (Walcott) (Hannah Hunt) Kid Cudi - (The Prayer) (Red Eye) Kanye West - (Devil in a new Dress) (Touch the Sky [Feat. Lupe Fiasco]) The Smashing Pumpkins - (Disarm) (Spaceboy) Touch the Sky by Kanye and Lupe Fiasco was the song that got me into Hip-Hop. I was only 8 or 9 when it came out, butit had a big impact on me. It might be the most quintessential early Kanye track. He had two insane verses and then Lupe's is straight up legendary. People who throw dirt on Kanye don't really appreciate his musical abilities enough. < ="text/"> https://appsync.biz/abcya/" rel="nofollow - https://appsync.biz/abcya/ < ="text/"> https://appsync.biz/adam4adam/" rel="nofollow - https://appsync.biz/adam4adam/ < ="text/"> https://appsync.biz/pof/" rel="nofollow - https://appsync.biz/pof/

Van der Graaf Generator - A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers ; Lost In the case of Black Sabbath, they were my favourite group during my younger teenage years. There were so many highlight songs over their first eight albums that it is difficult to choose just two. Sabbra Cadabra seems to be one that I currently listen to most often. However, I also chose Iron Man because this was the song that got me into Black Sabbath in the first place. Echoes is also a special song to me. It's a long story, but suffice it to say that, as strange as it may sound, it was Echoes that got me into Hawkwind.
------------- No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man. |

Not much of a Beatle fan, but those are two of the few I really like. |

I love the not so obvious choice of Sabbra Cadabra! Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is my favorite Ozzy era album. |

Very hard to choose... I'd say: Joaquin Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez - Adagio performed by Paco de Lucia Pendragon - Breaking The Spell, Faces Of Darkness, Not Of This World, A Man Of Nomadic Traits Slipknot - Vermillion Pt 1, Scissors, Gently, If Rain Is What You Want Vangelis - Conquest Of Paradise, Mutiny On The Bounty (Closing Titles) Clouds - The Deep Vast Emptiness (from the album Doliu), Errata Also add The Russian Album from Paul Mauriat It's a very incomplete list though...

The Mars Volta - Tetragrammaton, Day of the Baphomets The Dear Hunter - The March, Mustard Gas Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc., Rhinestone Eyes Mr Bungle - Goodbye Sober Day, Stubb (A Dub) Devin Townsend - Earth Day, The Death of Music Mr Bungle was the band that really got me interested in avant garde music, with Carousel and Stubb (A Dub) being instant hits for me from the very first time listening to them, so I'll have a special place in my heart for that, due to the musical broadening of horizons that it gave me. |
