I'm working on a playlist that still isn't coming together for me. I decided to sum it up as Epic (even though that isn't quite right). Loud, preferably happy, fast, pounding (an evolution of my speeding ticket playlist that never panned out)
This is what I have so far:
All These Things That I Have Done - The Killers
Keep the Car Running - Arcade Fire
Dreams - Brandi Carlisle
All Float On - Modest Mouse
Liztomania - Phoenix
Shadowplay - The Killers
Down Boy - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Drumming Song - Florence + the Machine
I Want Blood - Empires
Wake Up - Arcade Fire
Inní mér syngur vitleysingur - Sigur Rós
Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Cobra Style - Teddybears
Dog Days are Over - Florence + the Machine
Mr. Blue Sky - ELO
When You Were Young - The Killers
No One Takes Your Freedom - DJ Earworm
Wolf Like Me - TV On the Radio
Rebellion - Arcade Fire
Any suggestions or recommendations?
Brighton Rock by Queen!
Epic, fast, unbelievable guitar playing. Check it.
Moving by Suede would also be great. Very propulsive. You can hear it here.
Uh, do you need something more contemporary than that?
Contemporary is not a must, that just seems to be where I'm finding existing music in my library (my evolving tastes through the years, and I tends towards moody and slow in general. I have lots of music I can slit my wrist to, but not a whole lot for jamming).
Well, those should definitely work on an epic level.
Finding those songs on YouTube I just discovered Corinne Bailey Rae's cover of "Steady As She Goes" (Raconteurs orig.) Cool!
Na Na Na or several other tracks off of My Chem's new one, Danger Days. (can't believe I was the first to post that)
Also, The Devil and Maggie Chascarillo by Lucero.
Also, The Devil and Maggie Chascarillo by Lucero.
They have a song about the lead character in Love and Rockets?
Na Na Na was played a bunch of times during the hockey game I was watching tonight. I was all, of course, that's a perfect hockey song.
Hec, apparently. Never got around to reading those.
