Songs To Die By

[Maglor]

Do you know that feeling you get from certain sad songs?

Pleasantly melancholy.

When you listen to them, everything looks sad. Sad in a beautiful way.

Sunshine or rain, the city or the country. All things look sad when you here these songs.

Despair feels comforting when you here these songs.

You don't fear death when you hear these songs.




These are Songs To Die By.



If you know the kind of song I mean then post one.

So powerful.

Devastatingly sad, even without lyrics.

Very dark and ambient, always puts me at ease.

Hopefully, my "song to die by" won't be anything soft or sad. It will be F'N EPIC:

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/EeYGiS_hZhU&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/EeYGiS_hZhU&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

 

[Kabukiman]

...if it has to be "pleasant and melancholy", I'd go with this:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/5k4rwCi-eB4&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/5k4rwCi-eB4&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

or this:

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/zniur_5NsfA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/zniur_5NsfA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

Better than the original! I remember seeing this vid for the first time and seeing June looking at him the way she did really got to me. I think they were both sick at the time. She died first, but he didn't live too long after her. Close souls they call that.

So powerful.

Devastatingly sad, even without lyrics.


(Note: the video is for a different song. I chose this version because the audio is uncut. I recommend closing your eyes or looking out the window while listening.)

I was listening to this song and my lovely GF came over and asked what I was listening to... I tell her and she sits on my lap and says "It's a nice song"

I tell her "This guy on the Freaks board recommends looking out a window while listening"...so she does..."Oh that's just great!" she says and gets up and starts to walk outside, I look out the window and lo & behold what do I see? Two dogs getting it on in our front yard.

Next thing I see is my GF showering the dogs with cold water chasing them away.
