Hello everyone,
I am looking for new influences in music. I would like you to post up to 5 songs that you think are GREAT that maybe not everyone has heard before or have been lost in the past. I have songs on my computer from Frank Sinatra to DMX, Godsmack to Sade so I am open to most types of music except country and Tejano.
I think most music genres are like beautiful women. It doesn't matter where they are from, you can still pick them out. So although genres may be unfamiliar to me, I can still appreciate the beauty in the music.
I have 3 playlists:
general- self explanatory
chillin' -for drinking beer
abs of steel- to motivate me to exercise, to instill me with energy (see chillin' for why I need to exercise)
So post away!
Currently I need more high energy songs (I'm not talking heavy metal, just songs as simple as Jump! by Van Halen that get your head a bobbin' and feet a tappin'.
I will start by giving you my recommendations:
Mack the Knife- Sinatra with Jimmy Buffet- general or abs of steel
Party up- DMX- abs of steel
I aint mad at cha- Tupac- chillin
Mazzy Star- Fade into you- chillin
Last Train to Trancentral- KLF- abs of steel
You do not need to put your songs in a category. I will download recommendations to "the screening room" and transfer them as appropriate.
Please post JUST 5 of your absolute favorites, thanks.
PS: By post, I just mean list, I will search the kazaa-lite data base for the actual songs.

Consequence Free - Great Big Sea
Ultimate feel-good music.
My mum swears by Queen's 'Breakthru' for jogging to. Might work with other kinds of exercise...
-
Great songs, both of them are now in "abs of steel"
I won't respond to all, but this is exactly what I wanted. Never had heard either of these 2 great songs.

Mozart - Requiem (It's over an hour long though. And it's Mozart, so I'm not sure how it'd fit with the rest of your songs. ;))

I can't limit myself to five. ;)
