The "Listen to This" Game

This is a game that's been going on on the deviantART forum for a while and I thought it would be fun to bring it here.

Here's how it works:

I'll post a link to a song like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQXe5kTXYes

And the next person will leave a comment, telling me (and everyone else) what they think of the song...love it, hate it, indifferent... and then post their own link to a favorite song.

If you want to post the lyrics, go ahead, but make sure you give us somewhere to listen to it.

You aren't expected to like every song, but do be respectful and only comment on the song, not the person.

Once again, my song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQXe5kTXYes

Aaaaand go!

This song has completely stolen my heart. Wow. It's quiet enough that I can write to it without being overwhelmed by the lyrics, but I love that the lyrics are a story. Good stuff.

I simply have to say that my science teacher has a poster in his classroom with a picture of him that says:

PERFECTION:
I'm sorry. I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am.

And so I love your avatar.

Hmmm, I like it, but it sounds a little like background dinner music; it's inoffensive and satisfying but not wholly filling.

I've been stuck listening to this for the past week:

Kate Bush is amazing, this song sounds like something I'd be listening to at 7AM as the sun is rising, good stuff.

Haha, very amusing! My aunt is Irish and she got a kick out of it. Reminds me of the drinking song sketches that is on Whose Line is it Anyway?

My song:
A friend of mine showed me this group and I've fallen in love with this song of theirs. It has a strong message, just what I love in songs.

Sorry about that, since there's no edit function yet so let's pretend I'm answering SecretlySabrina instead of AccoSpoot.

It's definitely my kind of music, and the video is beautiful too.

I'm just creeping on this thread but I feel you should know, looking on this link sent me on a HUGE trip down memory lane as I just listened to every song from that album. I remember dancing like crazy in my room with my Barbie dolls and being afraid to say "the D-word" in this song.

Avril Lavigne is my childhood, although this isn't my favorite of her songs. However it did bring back some memories

How about some foreign music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmufTk1AlqA

How did you know that this one of my favorite songs?! XD

I just LOVE Nanne Grönvall and the Swedish language! I'm sure glad that there are some other people who listen to her besides me...

Hmmm... Which song to choose? How about... this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqw8rHBzTgc

Mmmm I like this song. Her voice kind of reminds me of Adele in a way. Kind of ethereal I suppose is the word I'm looking for.

Hmmm try....this one.
