Its a far far, far far far, fa da, da da da

Just got up from bed as I can't sleep in this heat. So this was really my favorite song yesterday. Probably still is today. Suprisingly interesting '82 post-punk... or whatever you'd like to call it. Never reissued.  Played the D-side four times in a row. It starts with this (and ends with an equally long instrumental): 


Like early Can as an 80's new wave or dark wave band?

Vangelis' "Blade Runner Blues", but if you insist on the presence of the lyrics, I would have to say ... Oh! PG's "Intruder"! Somewhat corny lyrics, but the music, man ... you just can't pin it down.

Damn it! I should have said The Bee Gees' "Bury Me Down by the River" (for an actual song with the lyrics), but the OP said "no excessive thinking" or something like that. I must have had quite a few songs go through my head yesterday.

Listened to that today!!
But since I've only heard the Suffocating The Bloom album ONCE (shameful, I know) listening to that now. Seriously though, that's the best album from the 90's to the present! Every song is so good... My favorite song today is Memoirs From Between I guess!

You can think excessively if you want - it's just not required. Smile

Anyway, I meant for this to be a daily kind of thread, so you can change your mind as often as you want.  I noticed that every day there's a certain song that hits me in just the right way, and this thread is meant to highlight those little moments.

Enjoying everyone's responses so far!

Today, it has to be...

Beneath, Between, and Behind - Rush

Great song; it has good lyrics, cool chord progressions, the performance and composition are really tight, it's catchy, and Alex somehow manages to play an interlude consisting basically of a major scale, and to make it sound very interesting and creative.  The Exit Stage Left version is even better than the studio version, but they just had to cut the second verse out Head on wall.

http://deadcandance.com/presaleassets/anastasisplayer.html" rel="nofollow - http://deadcandance.com/presaleassets/anastasisplayer.html

I really like it.  Great sound.



So I have 4 songs of the day:

Dead Can Dance - Anabasis
Dead Can Dance - Agape
Dead Can Dance - Kiko            kind of a turkish/middle eastern rhythm in odd meter, but slow tempo .Very cool.
Dead Can Dance - All in Good Time        I think this is my favourite, nice harmonies and atmosphere.
