Recommend a Song

I'm sure there are similar threads, but I'll play along. I'm infatuated with No Doubling Back (iTunes Store link) from Jason Mraz right now.

EDIT: Yikes! I don't have that version. I have some acoustic version that is MUCH better. The version I have is from his Sold Out album from 2002.

 

I know you aren't surprised by my selections:

The Roof - Mariah Carey (pure GENIUS)
Breakdown - Mariah Carey
Petals - Mariah Carey

Shows sides of Mariah people don't think of. AMAZING songs.

 

RHCP - Can't Stop

 

The Hacker - Clock DVA
Ghosts of Perdition - Opeth
The Pot - TOOL


And I could recommend about 1,000,000 more!!

 

I really like "Breakdown." It's a very good song.

 

Not the tremblin' kind by Laura Cantrell

 

Wagon Wheel - Old Crow Medicine Show
Oh My Sweet Carolina - Ryan Adams
Coffee and Priceless - Copeland

I would recommend picking up the Old Crow Medicine Show album O.C.M.S. and the Copeland album Beneath the Medicine Tree

 

"Shower the People" by James Taylor

 

goldfinger ash.

 

Coldplay> The Scientist > The video is awesome also!
British Sea Power> Carrion

recommend a song

my three songs

lady in red ...phil collins

unchained melody.....righteous brothers

women ......john lenon

 

love will tear us apart, Joy division.

Bit of an odd one, but I like it.

 

I've always really liked it too. It manages to be both mournful and nostalgic, qualities that are much appreciated in a bit o' late night listening.

 

Isn't this what DailyTunes is for...?

My recommendations

Some recommendations which I haven't been able to add to my DailyTunes recommendations, for the sake of this thread:

• Walking On The Milky Way - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark
• Ballad Of Bodmin Pill - New Model Army
• Well Did You Evah? - Deborah Harry & Iggy Pop

 

Hurt - Johnny Cash
Sunsets - Powderfinger
One Crowded Hour - Augie March
Flame Trees - Cold Chisel
Blow Up the Pokies - The Whitlams
Overkill - Men At Work
How to Save A Life - The Fray
Side of The Road - Ben Folds
Scar - Missy Higgins
This Train Will Be Taking No Passengers - Augie March

Every single one is a gem. The last one by Augie March is a ripper of a tune.

 

Definitely agree with you on the TOOL any and all Tool is awesome

 

Strange Fruit.

 

Esepcially the Mo' Thugs Remix; this is one of -- if not THE -- best songs of her career. Way ahead of its time.

 

Wake Up by Arcade Fire

Overall just amazing... It inspires me to never.... give in and to live as awesomely as I can.

 

Rock Pink feat. Peaches: Oh My God
Acoustic Nouvelle Vague: Dance with Me (they also do a great cover of "Love will Tear us Apart")
Electropop Goldfrapp: Ooh La La
Electronic LCD Soundsystem: Tribulations
Psychedelic Superpitcher: Heroin
Pop Tiger Baby: Girlfriend

West End Blues - Louis Armstrong
St. Matthew's Passion - J.S. Bach
Adagio for Strings - Samuel Barber
A Love Supreme - John Coltrane
