LONELY

Tom Waits

Oh this could take a minute.

"Romeo and Juliet" -- Dire Straits. Major Downer.
"Be My Driudess" -- Type O Negative. Let's be polite and call it extremely amorous.
"Given to Fly" -- Pearl Jam. Makes depression feel good.
"Tonight, Tonight" -- Smashing Pumpkins. Ditto.
"Come Undone" -- Duran Duran. Double Ditto.
"Ashes to Ashes" and "Hallo Spaceboy" -- David Bowie. Triple and quadruple Ditto.
"Scar Tissue" -- Red Hot Chili Peppers. Yet another Ditto.
"The Good Witch of the North" -- Everclear. Too many memories. Makes me leak.

And there are a bunch more, but I will keep from going on for hours.

What can I say

I really "feel" music

and to add one more
The Earth Died Screaming-Tom Waits

Dance with my Father by Luther Vandross

''Long Black Train'' ~ Josh Turner.
''Travelers Lantern'' ~ Dwight Yoakam.

W.A.S.P. "Keep Holding On"

I just remembered others!

Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden
Jesus Christ Pose by Soundgarden
Raining Blood by Slayer

X Japan - "X"
I have no idea why. I can't even understand the lyrics, but something just "clicks" inside me when I listen to it.

Lots of stuff by Beatles gets me.
A whole album "Murder ballads" by Nick Cave and the bad seeds, especially "the curse of Millhaven", makes me feel really and full of energy

Hello~by EVANESCENCE
Cape of Storms~HYDE

superstitious minds ELVIS presley

Ahhh, yes, Depeche Mode kills me with Personal Jesus and Taking a Ride. I wrecked 2 cars listening to them.. ( don't ask ) And Spanish Doll by Poe. Please check that last one out....it rocks.

Turin Brakes - Above the Clouds
(from jackinabox)

and Talk talk - Time it's time

One song thats always evoked emotion in me is SRV's TEXAS FLOOD. When i first heard it about 10 yrs ago i was sitting there on my own & it blew me away. Stevie makes the guitar evoke intense emotion mid way thru the song which imo is only an extension of his arms. lol

Texas Flood is awesome!! I get a lot of guitargasms with that one (well, this one and Pride and Joy )

I remember another one:

scremo? whats that?

Hello by Evanescence (I think it's Hello anyway). For some reason, the line "Has no one told you she's not breathing?" really haunts me.

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.

Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance - This is a song that makes you want to dance, but at the same time it's a very emotionally fueled song.

Cancer by My Chemical Romance - It's heartbreaking.

Desert Song by My Chemical Romance.

I'm sure It'll think of more.

They do nothing but scream there songs most of the time. Like I said it's a required taste but I love them.

This is an real oldy, but for some reason it makes me feel sad in a weird way ( because isnt it suppose to be a "happy" song? )
