My dad brought me up to
appreciate a very large range of music I have enjoyed and gone through phases
of liking pretty much everything except country music and rnb, anyhoo here is
my list, its very mix matched and I understand not everything will be everyone’s
cup of tea but for the most part these songs have deep meaning for me or are
directly related to certain stages of my life so the mean a lot to me.
FYI this list is long….
My absolute favorite song of all
time this song is just so incredibly beautiful and I have loved it ever since I
heard it for the first time.
Poisen- Alice Cooper
Another favorite and one I share
with my hubby’s list when he mentioned this song on a coffee date I knew he was
frikken amazing =)
Sweet child of mine- Guns and
Roses
Every time I hear this song it
makes me want to cry the lyrics are just stunning and I would love to have had
a song like this written for me, having said that Axl Rose did not have the
best relationship with his wife but it doesn’t taint the meaning of the song
for me.
Anything for love- Meat Loaf
Don’t ask, I don’t know what it
is about meatloaf but his style and him wow I think he is incredible and my dad
played his music often so I guess it imprinted on my musical appreciation.
Heart shaped glasses- Marilyn
Manson
This song, ok the music video is
a bit adult, sex and nudity however the song I feel is written with a lot of
emotion and once you look at the meaning behind the song and the relationship
story that went with it you appreciate how beautiful it is.
Nymphetamine- Cradle of Filth
Not everyone’s cup of tea most would see it as dark and inappropriate but I
have loved this song since my mid- teens and every time I hear it, it makes me
think of all the people I knew and that period of time in my life, it’s also a
song both hubby and I love.
Rose of Sharyn- Killswitch Engage
This song was first played to me
by my ex and I just thought it was incredible, it still makes me think of the good times in our relationship and of Loghans pregnancy.
Down with the Sickness- disturbed
I love disturbed there is no need
for an explanation =)
Freak on a Leash- Korn
This song takes me back to a
period in my life when I felt like an outcast freak in a sea of conventional
thinking, I went through so many changes and made so many mistakes but
surprisingly this song makes me think of how far I have come and not the bad.
Starlight- Muse
Muse has been on my go to list
since my early teens especially when I am feeling down.
Love the way you lie- Eminem and
Rihanna
I have always enjoyed Eminem’s
music and even though I am not a fan of Rihanna but I have to admit they make
quite a musical pair and their vocals etc go incredibly well together.
Monster- Eminem and Rihanna
See above…
Bohemian Rhapsody- Queen
When I hear this song I think of
my dad he played it and all of Queens songs so often in my childhood and I
learned to appreciate their genius.
Brick in the wall- Pink Floyd
Another band that was imprinted
on my childhood- no complaints from me!
Crucify- Tori Amos
Just listen to this song the
lyrics are incredibly powerful
Imogen Heap- Speeding Cars
This song was introduced to me in
college by a good friend whilst I was pregnant with Loghan again very powerful
lyrics and emotions.
Rammstein- Stirb night vor mir
Translated- Don’t Die before I
do, I love Rammstein and almost every song of theirs I listen to, this one is a
mix of English and German and again beautiful lyrics and vocals I am incredible
fond of vocals where a harder harsher male voice is mixed with an operatic or
soulful female voice
Eva- Nightwish
Another song you just have to
listen to, Nightwish got me through so much I remember taking the bus every day
and just turning the volume on my phone up to max headphones in my ears, I
prefer the past singer to the current but their lyrics are wonderful still.
Enjoy the Silence-Lacuna Coil
This is a remake of the original
Depeche mode song, my hubby was horrified when I told him I just
don’t like Depeche mod, the lyrics are incredible but I prefer this version of the song.
Diary of Jane- Breaking Benjamin
I listened to this song a lot in
my matric year
Hinder-Lips of an angel
This song has a loooooooooong back story I'm not going to get into
So there you have it my very long list of favorites, I highly recommend every one of them but obviously its not everyone's cup of tea =)
