Hey Guys!
ReplyDeleteHere's one I just discovered this weekend, and I think it's a worthy addition to the list.

I love that you added Cinema Paradiso to the list. This music is the official theme song of falling in love.
ReplyDeleteThis version is gorgeous too, by Pat Metheny and Charlie Haden.

I've followed Bjork since she hit in America with the Sugarcubes (which have some gems of their own) Vespertine was one of her albums that struck a cord with me and Heirloom particularly wooed me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJcWcF7aDnA
ReplyDeleteI've followed Tori Amos a long time as well and I have to say that I rather like Muhammad, but like this one a tiny bit better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CE94YMnPJo
something about the growling base along with the floaty electric piano and of course the open heart surgery of the lyrics.

I don't know about great, but I do definitely love it:
ReplyDeleteDavid Bazan's "Cold Beer and Cigarettes"

I have been stuck on this song for a while now.

I woke up this morning with this song in my head. I think it is one of the greatest.

Today I am listening to Arlo Guthrie. Thought you might like it.

Wow. Just... wow. These are ALL worthy of the list. Thanks for posting! That version of "Sentimental Mood" is just awesome. What a tune!
ReplyDeleteMatthew played "Touched" by Vast and i cant get enough of it.
ReplyDeleteCrazy good stuff..

"Touched" by vast is probably my alltime favorite.
ReplyDeleteMy musical taste is eclectic at best, but more than often just plain weird. I'm not sure if they are worthy of a "great" list, but I thought these were pretty damn cool.
Dresden Dolls - "Dirty Business"
Amanda Palmer is just awesome, and dating Neil Gaiman.
Elsiane - "Hybrid"
Her voice is just so different. The album is totally alien.
