What are you listening to?


"Ride" (Tiesto Remix)
Cary Brothers
Album, Last Kiss - 2008

Uplifting, beautiful song, which then goes over into a spherical feeling (like music filling the sky, surrounding your body and senses).
 

Karahunj
Armen Miran & Hraach

Album - the Prelude, 2016 ?

Slow instrumental yet intriguing music with strong middle eastern, asian flavors, and some more instruments introduced lifting in the middle - but to towards the end are ebbing out into just drums. I remember as a child, I always got the chills when i heard exotic sounding (eastern/asian) instruments ... almost like a faint 'memory' from a long lost past
 

The Ghost In You
Siousie & The Banshees

Album - Superstition, 1991


Lyrics

You awoke in a burning paper house
From the infinite fields of dreamless sleep
You return to Tiannammen
An eyewitness in a shroud
To see them fall, feel them yield
Reliving the terror of the crowd

Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow
Just for a moment I seemed to know
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow
I seemed to know the ghost in you

The whisper of your scream
Sighed through the air
And faith the flag is torn and frayed
Infernal heat, glory in flame
Love was beaten and betrayed

In every step I hear your sobbing
Dare I break the shade with one caress
Dare I trespass to lift the veil
To touch the lips so soft and frail

Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow
I seemed to know the ghost in you

Your captive heart's
The belief you share
With a kiss eternal
Spirits of the square

Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow
Hope remains with the ghost in you
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow
I seemed to know the ghost in you

Don't let it blow
The ghost in you
The ghost in you
 

Little Sister
Siouxsie and the Banshees
Album - Superstition, 1991



Here I sit in paradise
My head between my hands

Little sister, break your vow
Break down, the sacred side
Little sister, break the rules
Break me in two

Will hopes ever fill your eyes?
Look before I sleep tonight

Little sister, now you're gone
Let's just say it's a mercy kill
But little sister, you've left me
Howling at the moon

If you touched my heart
You might be surprised
You'd be paralyzed

If you touched my heart
A truth might lie disguised
You'd be paralyzed

Just once little sister
Just once little sister
 

Immaculate Eyes
Dalbello, 1987



I remember that song when I was 20+, and there was something in the text that often made me think of some people, beautiful people, yet with a hidden or masked predator like nature beneath... I felt internal struggle between the strong attraction, and the fear of what's hidden... what if one get's lost (Well... uhm.. I did countless times). But not forever.


Lyrics

You're impatient
I get bored when there's no
Conversation - I
Lose desire 'cause you're
Not what you appear to be
Not what you appear to be

Imperfection has left no trace upon you
Your reflection, you depend upon it

You might be beautiful but what's behind it?
You have a pretty face but what are you hiding?

Chorus
I'd rather stare at the stains on my window
Than look into those
Immaculate Eyes
I'd rather gaze at the dust on my pillow
Than look into those
Immaculate Eyes

Invitation
Signals you are sending
Hesitation
Like a never ending
Vertigo inside of me
Vertigo...

No doubt I could look at you for hours
But it's no good when good looks overpower

You might be beautiful but what's behind it?
You have a pretty face but what are you hiding?

Chorus
I'd rather stare at the stains on my window
Than look into those
Immaculate Eyes
I'd rather gaze at the dust on my pillow
Than look into those
Immaculate Eyes

Bridge
If there's more to you than meets the eye
Why can't I find it?
You laugh sweetly
When I ask you if your beauty's skin deep

Solo

I'd rather gaze at the dust
On my pillow that look into those eyes...

Chorus tag
Your Immaculate Eyes
Immaculate Eyes
Your Immaculate Eyes
Immaculate Eyes
 
I can't exactly claim I listen to Tom MacDonald can I, seeing as I'm a slightly older generation with somewhat different musical tastes...

However, I can still recognize someone who is daring to buck the trend and speaking it as it is. Assuming he is what he seems - independent and determinedly keeping on saying the unsayable - here's his latest release (brought to my notice by my age appropriate son).

Only 3.2million views in 48 hours, so someone's clearly listening and maybe not quite BRAINWASHED yet (though YouTube haven't banned him despite what is clearly very dangerous talk... suspicious...)
