Tiny Little Robots by Cage the Elephant.
"I know that you're tired of this
Cause you're a robot
They designed your life
But true souls said you know what's right
And you can join us on the other side"
ZSK - Antifascista we always need more, proud, dangerous, commited antifascists.
For me, this song is an example of a bold, counter rightwing-populism narrative. We need more strong and proud narratives on the left, to tell people they can feel important, powerful, accepted and part of something important - on the morally correct side of history.
Happy Birthday, if I've gotta sit there quietly and feel awkward, so do all of you
Enigma - Principles of Lust
No time for fighting when we’re all busy fucking to new age 90’s sex anthems
Now that's stuck in my head.
So, job done I guess.
Hiromi Uehara - Deep into the night
...because I think everyone need to chill the fuck down.
If that doesn't work, I'll go with Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation so everyone can fuck the chill up instead.
Props for the Hiromi recommendation, though I'd personally choose Seeker from the Alive album.
Killing in the name of
This was my pick too. Might start a revolution.
The Aglet song from Phineas and Ferb. Just to make everyone aware of the name of that plasticky end of your laces.
Same emotions?
On a good day by Above and Beyond.
I first heard it at a rave, rolling on ecstacy, going through pretty bad depression. It was during their "Group Therapy" set. I felt so connected to everyone around me. So peaceful. So understood. I cared and loved everyone around me and I felt the same in return. Sure, I was high. But it was a moment a decade ago that I can still remember vividly, and a point where I started taking my mental health seriously and started to deal with it and finally start to feel good about myself.
Welcome my son,
welcome, to the machine.
Where have you been?
It’s alright, we know where you’ve been.
Welcome to the Machine, Pink Floyd
I was birthed to that album.
Wake Up - RATM
People need to get really fucking angry and start causing serious trouble for those that are burning our home and hurting our friends.
Ænima by TOOL
I wanna see it all flushed away.
Learn to swim
See you down in Arizona Bay!
Learn to swim
I sure could use a vacation
Sweet Carol Line 😏
Peace Train
Pig by The Dave Matthews Band.
It’s about hope. And sometimes that’s all we have, so… don’t burn the day.
Achy Breaky Heart.
I just don’t think they’d understand
Body Language by Queen
God Thinks by Aurelio Voltaire
"God is a liberal, God is a democrat
God wants you to vote Republican
Never trust a man who puts his words in the mouth of God
And says it's absolute truth
It's lies and it smells like death
It's all in a days work taking money from the poor
Why do you think that God
Would need your dirty money if you want to start a holy war?"
Japandroids - Near To The Wild Heart Of Life
This song aggressively reminds me of the mix of anxiety and excitement I had before moving out on my own for the first time. I came from a small town, and moved to the "big city" in my province. I had never moved anywhere before, let alone without my parents. That was 15 years ago now, but this takes me right back. It's also a banger (in my opinion).
Mozart - Requiem
Insane Clown Posse - "Chris Benoit" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=574ULaCk4iE
Inspiration for the song came from wrestler Chris Benoit, who murdered his wife and son before committing suicide. Insane Clown Posse broadly alluded to the murders in the song's lyrics, but the focus of the song is not the murders themselves, but of suddenly losing one's sanity, and eclipsing in violence.[3] The song pertains to the album's overall concept, which "teaches us to respect the life we've been given and do our best to avoid an early death."
Some of my current mood options would be:
- "Deep" by Courten (preferably the slowed version)
- "Masked ball" by Jocelyn Pool
- "Old doll" by Mad Father OST (the slowed piano version)
- "Fallen down" by Undertale OST (slowed version)
Nine sili nebesniye, Alexander Sheremetiev.
Angel in the Jungle by Seeming
Bloodlip, by Matduke/Veela. I don't listen to the lyrics of songs all that much so for me the emotions are driven by the melody. Something about the chorus in this one sends shivers down my spine.
