Here's my favorite blog spot so far too Awesome Tapes from Africa
 
What a cool guy.


I'm really into these guys.

Just a few good songs there. I really enjoy all their albums, and I'd advise you to check them out.
 
Thank you for posting that! I have a whole list of beautiful orchestral pieces I could put up here (being a music student and all). Don't worry I'm only going to post a few!

Mendelssohn - A MiRABummer Night's Dream, Op. 61: IX. Wedding March. I've played this piece many, many times on piano for weddings but it doesn't beat the arrangement for a symphony.

J. S. Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G Major: I. Allegro

[YOUTUBE]lhXHMzSOK5c[/YOUTUBE]

Pachelbel - Canon in D Major

[YOUTUBE]DZHw9uyj81g[/YOUTUBE]

J. S. Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D Minor for Organ

[YOUTUBE]_FXoyr_FyFw[/YOUTUBE]

Handel - The Messiah, HWV 56: Hallelujah Chorus

[YOUTUBE]DyFDW9wlLvE[/YOUTUBE]

And my absolute favourite piece ever:

Barber - Adagio for Strings

[YOUTUBE]RRMz8fKkG2g[/YOUTUBE]

Enjoy!
 
Awww Rickenbacker you beat me to it! But I'm going to post Strange Currencies.

I also advise everyone to check out REM in depth. It's not just "Losing My Religion" and "Everybody Hurts" folks!

Also Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. I really love this song and anything by NMH.

Here are some funny names (/typos) from your list ;)

I wouldn't normally nitpick on such lists, but it's not often I see such blatant in-my-face e-peen stroking around here. I think you have every band mentioned on rab over the last 6 months up there.

There's a lot of stupid mentions too. In a thread about the greatest music ever composed, why would you mention stuff like G.G. Allin and Gregorian Chant? The first is a guy who rolled around in his own feces on stage and once got sent to a hospital because he was severly beaten by his own audience. He was absolute crap. The other is the most erabarassing set of cover ****e ever produced on the face of the earth, even beating poor people from chile honkin' out Celine Dione songs on panflute or 40 year old virgins living in their mother's basement, playing dungeons & dragons every tuesday night.

I mean, "monks" singing cover versions of hits such as "smells like teen spirit" .. how much worse does it get? :(
 
Hey guys thanks for all the input i wish all 80 plus people that viewed this would have posted at least 1 song it would make my job so much easier.
 
Fixed ;)

Some nice choices there especially Dinosaur Jr, it's one of my favourite songs of theirs.

I never get sick of hearing Love Will Tear Us Apart. It's Ian Curtis at his most open and honest.

12:51 is one of The Strokes' best tunes, even though most of Room On Fire wasn't as good. Nick Valensi's lead guitar melody sounRAB fantastic against Albert's rhythm guitar work. Both guitarists have contrasting styles but they sound really good together.

Three of my favourite modern songs I think, although it's a near impossible task to pick favourite songs in reality, these would definitely be up there.
