Song I Love And Want To Share

First of all look at the album cover with soviet brutalism - I really like it. Not soviet union though, but the cover. ^^

Overall band's music is not something I would listen, but I liked this particular song and text. I find it hilarious that I got acquainted with this song because one youtuber mentioned it as weird choice for being a "TikTok dressing videos theme song" (what!?). And it actually is. It was funny/weird to look at silly videos while hearing these lyrics (translation from random website is below, it is quite close to the original):

Судно

Эмалированное судно
Окошко, тумбочка, кровать
Жить тяжело и неуютно
Зато уютно умирать
Эмалированное судно
Окошко, тумбочка, кровать
Жить тяжело и неуютно
Зато уютно умирать

И тихо капает из крана
И жизнь растрёпана, как блядь
Выходит, как бы, из тумана
И видит: тумбочка, кровать
И я пытаюсь приподняться
Хочу в глаза ей поглядеть
Взглянуть в глаза и разрыдаться
И никогда не умереть, никогда не умереть
Никогда не умереть, никогда не умереть
Никогда не умереть, никогда не умереть

A bedpan

A window, a nightstand, a bed
Living is hard and uncomfortable
But it is comfortable to die
An enamel bedpan
A window, a nightstand, a bed
Living is hard and uncomfortable
But it is comfortable to die

And it is quietly dripping from a faucet
And life is unkempt like a whore
It appears like out of a fog
And it sees: a nightstand, a bed
And I try to stand up
I want to look into its eyes
Look into its eyes and cry
And never die, never die
Never die, never die,
Never die, never die

Absolutely in love with this song, from the lyrics to the overlaid vocals to the upbeat background music clashing with the more sinister implications of the song.

If anyone has recommendations of similar stuff please share!

I'm (was) not into such music, but these guys did it on another level. I still wonder where such level of sound work is coming from.

I love everything about this song - vibe, quality of source musical material, record and sound work, voice, texture of guitar, bass, drums, vocal and it's awesome usage of extensive tremolo effect.

It was a great song, but the way it's done in the recording in my opinion makes it awesome.

The first time I took LSD I spent the night obsessed with this song. It had this deep meaning that I can still remember and connect to, but have trouble putting into words. When I listen to it I'm right back in that (amazing) night. It felt like a realization of what it means to be lucky, but also to make your own luck, and to have the universe have your back.

Also its just a fantastic song.

I still remember how I played Need for Speed and heard this one. This song has such an interesting "lone road night vibe" for me, still listen to it pretty often. I do recommend to listen to the band if this song is something you enjoyed. They are very good.

Whenever this song comes on shuffle I end up overplaying it for a week. I love the blending vocals and music, and the repeating "la di da la a la a la a la di da" (its hard to type out music haha). Its really the whole vibe of the song, its got a very fun energy to it. I also really like the lack of buildup at the start, you've got vocals from the first second of play.

Also the bands name comes from a bible quote (its not a christian rock band)

They surrounded me like bees; they went out like a fire among thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them off! Psalm 118:12

I love any band that starts with that and ends with

me like bees

Give it a listen!

I found this song from the anime JoJo (its used as an ending) and I found myself playing it in my head for weeks. This lead to listening to the entire album, followed by most of Enigma's discography. So glad I followed this rabbithole because I love the music and its so different from what I usually listen to.

This song is still one of my favorites, I love the way the singer strains his voice while singing "stand up, join us" . He makes it sound more like "staaaaaand up... ... ... joooooiiin uuusssss"and it's amazing. If you have the patience it's worth listening to the song before on the album, "Smell of Desire" as it acts as an awesome buildup into Crusaders.

Alice's voice in this song is so powerful. She takes long pauses between her words and really brings out all of the emotions in the lyrics. One of my favorite songs to really pump up the volume and let it wash over you.

Found this song a few years back by accident. I was trying to look up a song called "Dreams Come True" by my favorite band The Killers and ran into this song instead.

Awesome band thats worth checking out. Their songs are all just keyboard, bass, and vocals which I love. You might not know that they did the music for the first two Sonic games.

This is the first song I ever heard from them and its still my favorite.

A powerful blend of jazz and hip hop that I can never skip when it comes up on shuffle

I did not expect P.O.D. to make two songs I would like this year - AFRAID TO DIE AND DROP.

Though I liked them both DROP is my favorite of two - it's more of their style from first albums. But on the other hand I do love AFRAID TO DIE and Tatiana Shmayluk from Jinjer is a really great singer. And clip is also quite enjoyable.

I love this guys voice so much, and I love the way he just loses it at the end of the song. I also like how when "Jenny is coming after you" starts up the female vocalist starts bopping and its like damn Jenny is right there.

Great singer. This song always gets me. So serene, so explosive. It's great.

Some Indian metal for you. I love vibes/energy of this song, it reminds me of late 90s, early 2000s, where most of my music taste formed.

Still looking for other great tracks I would like from the band.

I guess it's pretty well known and seen by many, but it turned out I forgot about it completely and ranbomly found it on youtube couple of days ago. Decided to show to my wife - we have watched it twice and added to our playlists right away.

Not only clip is astonishing and interesting to watch (I would really like to go to an industrial robot concert in live if there were any), but also music is pretty straightforward electronics I love it.

My favorite song from my favorite ELO album. The album is a concept album about a guy from 1981 who finds himself magically transported to 2095, and this is basically the first song to kick things off. I'm not particularly good at describing music, but the soaring "Twiiiiiiiiiiliiiiiiight" in the chorus around 1:50 with the backup vocals falling and rising really hit me. The music sounds very optimistic and almost kind of magical, even though the lyrics are about the singer confused and already starting to wish he was home.

I'm only posting Twilight, but the song melds in with the Prologue before it and the track afterwards, Yours Truly, 2095. They're all worth listening to.

Also, I should probably mention anime dorks of a certain age probably know Twilight (and Prologue) as the music from the Daicon IV opening animation, which is iconic in its own right.

I loved a lot of Trent's early stuff. Then he went to rehab, sobered up, and his music changed. This was one of the first indications I had of his changing style. A lot of fans didn't like it, but I think his songs became much more focused (especially lyrically). And thematically, this song will never not be relevant.

The kind of song that can make you patriotic for a country you'll probably never go to. I like it for the good chorus and the interesting story of how the Belgian's, near the start of WWI, deliberately flooded the Yser Canal, which affected the German trenches and how the Entente and the Belgians successfully crushed the Germans’ hopes of continuing the Schlieffen Plan.

This song had a really big impact on me when it first came out. Sadly, it just seems to become more and more relevant as time goes on.

This song makes me nostalgic for a reality I never got to experience - slow paced American countryside.

This song got me through the pandemic. Got me excited about this band, and put the albums on repeat so many times, and bought all the albums. This didn't go unnoticed with my SO and she secretly gifted me tickets to see them live. They are great live, and we had a blast!

I don't normally listen to a lot of prog, but this band got me hooked with their heavy riffs and melancholic choruses.

This song embodies a lighter than air feeling of starting to fall in love. Blasting loud because you don't care who hears or knows. Plus kick ass percussion. Hope someone enjoys

I was very surprised when discovered that band as late as in 2021. Not only it sounds great, quality of recording and mastering in this one is awesome (I do recommend listening to it in better quality than youtube offers).

I was like - WTF, it sounds like sound lift of some heavy/glam metal bands from late 80s, and it turned out to be band from that time. ^^

Though I do like some albums from back then, sometimes I wish they sounded more polished, more complex when it comes to recording. It's a matter of taste of course.

Never heard of these guys before, they do rock! Besides great intro part - both music and clean vocal sound great, clip is also actually nice. And here are lyrics, which turned out to be great, meaningful and resonating in my case:

If you, Holy Angels, do exist in this universe,
Will you bless me on the cheeks?
With my painful effort never paid off.
I've just been standing in the shadow,
Will the day come someday when I can fly high in the sky?
Will the day come when I can see the sun?
Tell me, Holy Angels.

If you, Divine Goddess, are staying hidden somewhere,
Why don't you smile at me on my forehead?
I've never tasted the nectar of victory.
I’ve never succeeded in love.
Will the day come when I can get intoxicated by the victory?
Will the day come when I can embrace love?
Tell me, Divine Goddess.

Countless stars are twinkling in the sky.
Every one of us is under them,
with a thousand wishes in each heart.

Lululu Lululu…

If you, Lord Buddha, really exist in some place,
Please have mercy on me, too.
Having nothing precious in my possession,
Desolated,
Isolated,
I've been living my life with a series of failures.
Will the day come when I can totally be satisfied?
Will the day come when my dreams come true?
Tell me, Lord Buddha.
