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
I love all these songs, but I have to say... my favorite is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSe6HDdyX7E&feature=related it's soft and melodic, and always seems to inspire my writing!! :D
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'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.

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.
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
This song is amazing! What a brilliant find :)
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
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:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUnjMI81vAA
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
That was cool. It sounded sort of like Jefferson Airplane.
Here's one that I've been listening to a lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSpScNTHRhc

Re: The "Listen to This" Game
Kate Bush is amazing, this song sounds like something I'd be listening to at 7AM as the sun is rising, good stuff.
I discovered this song one strange St Patricks day:

Re: The "Listen to This" Game
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.

Re: The "Listen to This" Game
This is one of the funniest song I've ever heard. I love it !
Less amusing song, but equally amazing IMO : Firewater - Three Legged Dog
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
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.
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
It's got a fun bet. I could definitely work to this kind of music.

Re: The "Listen to This" Game
Ahh, I love her voice! I've never heard this one by her.

Re: The "Listen to This" Game
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
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
As for the other posters song it has a good beat, although it is a little repetitive for me.
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
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
Go, Eurovision!
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
Oooo! I love her voice, even though the background music doesn't really do it for me.
Maybe... this?

Re: The "Listen to This" Game

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6opP57xgU8
Re: The "Listen to This" Game
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.
