In your opinion, what is the most emotional and mind bending song you know.
Personally anything from Pink Floyd is incredible, this song for example. :pimp:

I think trying to identify the "best song ever" is futile ..... Comfortably Numb is a great song, but even Floyd fans might think that it wasn't even their best song.
Anyway, I'm willing to play ..... my choice is "Stairway to Heaven" .
Bohemian Rhapsody- by Queen
Probably "I Believe" by Shadow Gallery.
emotional - Fake plastic trees by Radiohead
Mind-bending- Time by pink floyd
Bone thugs n harmony, smoking buddha.
hits close to home.
Lateralus, by Tool.
Simply a beautiful and life-changing song.
Fade to Black - Metallica
Aerials - System of a Down
both come to mind first
Murda Mo by Krayzie Bone
Time-Alan Parsons Project would be one
Riders on the Storn- The Doors
I'm agreeing with you on all that you said. As far as one song "taking me on a ride", it has to be Stairway. The build-up is so moving, I personally go along for the ride every time. There are so many others out there, though. It's like trying to pick a favorite strain of weed! I love them all!Quote:

The sound quality is poor, so it's harder to appreciate the fullness of the sound.
"Hit Me Baby One More Time" by Britney Spears. The emotional depth, the message of hope for humanity, the searing critique of the social problems of our day, and the original rhythms all touch me on so many levels.
No wait, I forgot, she's a dumb whore who can't sing for shit.
Seriously though, I think Eugène Poitier came up with the perfect lyrics for a song when he wrote L'Internationale back in 1870. Gotta love the classics. ;)
Quote:
Debout les damnés de la terre !
Debout les forçats de la faim !
La raison tonne en son cratère,
C'est l'éruption de la fin.
Du passé, faisons table rase,
Foule esclave debout ! debout !
Le monde va changer de base :
Nous ne sommes rien, soyons tout !
Refrain
C'est la lutte finale,
Groupons-nous, et demain
L'Internationale,
Sera le genre humain.
C'est la lutte finale,
Groupons-nous, et demain
L'Internationale,
Sera le genre humain.
Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes,
Ni dieu, ni César, ni tribun,
Producteurs, sauvons-nous nous-mêmes !
Décrétons le salut commun !
Pour que le voleur rende gorge,
Pour tirer l'esprit du cachot,
Soufflons nous-mêmes notre forge,
Battons le fer quand il est chaud !
(refrain)
L'Ã?tat comprime et la loi triche,
L'impôt saigne le malheureux ;
Nul devoir ne s'impose au riche,
Le droit du pauvre est un mot creux :
C'est assez languir en tutelle,
L'�galité veut d'autres lois :
« Pas de droits sans devoirs, dit-elle,
�gaux, pas de devoirs sans droits ! »
(refrain)
Hideux dans leur apothéose,
Les rois de la mine et du rail
Ont-ils jamais fait autre chose
Que dévaliser le travail ?
Dans les coffres-forts de la bande,
Ce qu'il a créé s'est fondu,
En décrétant qu'on le lui rende,
Le peuple ne veut que son dû.
(refrain)
Les rois nous saoulaient de fumée,
Paix entre nous, guerre aux tyrans !
Appliquons la grève aux armées,
Crosse en l'air et rompons les rangs !
S'ils s'obstinent ces cannibales,
A faire de nous des héros,
Ils sauront bientôt que nos balles
Sont pour nos propres généraux !
(refrain)
Ouvriers, paysans, nous sommes
Le grand parti des travailleurs ;
La terre n'appartient qu'aux hommes,
L'oisif ira loger ailleurs.
Combien de nos chairs se repaissent !
Mais si les corbeaux, les vautours,
Un de ces matins disparaissent,
Le soleil brillera toujours !
could you translate that?
Tool no doubt about it, 46& 2 and Lateralis...
most emotional song: bob marley - redemption song
most mindbending song: nine inch nails - screaming slave
Talkshow Host - Radiohead
The Decline - NOFX
Windowlicker - Aphex Twin

Also whenever I hear this song I have to blaze for some reason, it's like if you started singing "I'm sailing away.." in front of Cartman or something, I gotta pack a bowl :DQuote:
