Random Question No. 4: Favorite IRL song

[Mp3]

uh
Well
how do I explain that I don’t listen to real music
it’s not sploon so do any of these count
The Airbuster-final fantasy seven remake
Idol-B komachi
Last surprise- Persona 5 (or 4 idk)
The price of freedom-final fantasy seven crisis core reunion
JENOVA-final fantasy seven remake

none of these count probably

 

[Catloafman]

I like some religious music such as The Peace Of God - Keith Moore
but otherwise I don't really listen to "IRL" music

 

[Vidknight]

While I listen to a lot of different genres I mostly listen to R&B, which feature stuff like soul, funk, jazz, and swing/electroswing . So that is what my list is mostly going to feature except for one

Balduin & Wolfgang Lohr feat. J Fitz - Magic Man

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy - I'm Not Sleepin'

Cherry Poppin' Daddies - Drunk Daddy

Delegation - Darlin (I Thing About You)

Michael Kiwanuka - Final Days

Ginger Root - Karaoke

Snarky Puppy - Bet

K'naan, Ft. Adam Levine-Bang Bang

Masego, Don Toliver - Mystery Lady

The Whispers - Emergency

Tuxedo - You & Me

Spanish Love Songs - Brave Faces Everyone (Something about me was that I used to listen to punk rock back in 2020/2021 but I pretty much stopped mostly because I didn't really like the genre anymore. But there was one band that stood out to me and I still listen to and honestly consider the best punk rock band. I was thinking between this and clean up crew but I settled on this. I really recommend to listen to their entire discography even if you don't like punk nor rock.)

 

[OnePotWonder]

The main artists I listen to are Lena Raine, Shirobon, Big Giant Circles, and the like. Electronic music and video game soundtracks.

My absolute favourite song is Sevcon by Big Giant Circles. Perfection does in fact exist, at least on a subjective level.
Honourable mention goes to Precipice by Aaron Cherof. They did not need to cook this hard for Minecraft. Not complaining, though.

 

[Aiko.Octo]

I've never been comfortable/have always been really self-conscious talking about my music taste because (I am told) many people deem a lot of it 'boring cheap formulaic garbage' or whatever, but the thing is the formulas just work for me; there are just certain mathematical things you can do with notes and instrumentals and key changes and vibrations and lyrics that will just psychologically do things to me and I like them.

I have a lot of emotions about music. Most specifically I have emotions about lyrics and what they mean or how they can be interpreted and then how music can put such emotional emphasis on specific parts of the lyrics to just spear the meanings into your soul. I've never really latched on to specific genres or artists, only to specific songs based almost exclusively on their lyrics and how much they resonate with me (or sometimes my OCs lol) at that point in my life.

I need music to live. And I constantly need specifically new music to live; I really notice when the music I am listening to starts to feel "last phase" and I know I need to find something new to represent the current phase of life (not that I stop liking it, but just that I associate it with the past rather than the present). It's impossible to pick anything close to an all-time-favorite because there's so so so many that have been deeply important to me at different points in my life and whichever one is my favorite depends on the phase I am in. I feel like I could tell my whole life story if I chronologically ordered all the playlists I have ever had, hah.

Having music as a life-phase indicator is really interesting because it makes it easy for me to identify when I am in a new/different phase. I don't know that I would be so aware of the subtle shifts in my mentality and perceptions towards my situations and life in general if I didn't have that indicator.

Anyway, given I've hit some big milestones lately and significant mental shifts have come with that, I'm currently kind of in the 'desperately searching for new music' stage, so it will be fun to go through this thread and see if any of y'all's favorites resonate with me at all. :D

I guess just so I'm not leaving you with nothing, here's one of the rare outlier songs that has popped up anew in multiple phases throughout my life, and here's the most played song of my most recent phase.

 

[neonscreenlight]

i'm not the kind of person to have favourites tbh. it's always been really hard for me to answer these questions

uhh anyways a few songs i quite like are:
space song - beach house
for light - jay som
holy forest - pinkshinyultrablast
only acting - kero kero bonito
in your room - airiel
shanty - slowdive

 

[briank913]

I am a Christian so I always gotta give a shoutout to some Gospel music!

For King & Country - Shoulders

Cody Carnes - The Blessing

10000 Reasons - Lauren Horii (JP)

Outside of that, my taste in music would easily be called questionable. As someone who grew up with The Simpsons, I appreciate how this Australian YouTuber Dankpods remixed some Simpsons quote into music as Dankmus. It's quite silly but this guy gave birth to the Simpsonswave genre.

- H A N D S O M E - P E T E -

- M I S T E R - S P A R K L E -

- P U T - I T - I N - H -

But I'm also legit into Lofi too. I listen to Lofi to help me sleep or just vibe and chill.

Heading Home - Celestial Alignment

Building a New Life - Celestial Alignment

Icicle - G Mills

Also as an avid Gundam fan, a lot of my favorite songs came from the Gundam series:

Starringchild - Aimer

Cage - Tielle

Beyond the Time Over the Moebius Line - Luna Sea

Beyond - Luna Sea

Also did someone mention Linkin Park? :D When I was younger, I didn't give much thought to the lyrics but as I got older, I found even more beauty in Linkin Park

Numb - Linkin Park

Also +1 for LP being Gundam fans and featuring the Master Grade Sazabi, Wing Zero Custom, and GP01fb in their Music Video

Somewhere I Belong - Linkin Park

 

[briank913]

Whoa, how did I forget about Linkin Park!?!?!
I used to listen to "Points of Authority" all the time.
You seem to have good taste :)

Rip Chester

Linkin Park did the Opening Theme for this arcade to PS3 port game I played a lot (Catalyst)

 

[youre_a_squib_now]

I pretty much only listened to vg music until I found microtonal music a few months ago and now I pretty much only listen to that.

It's so hard to choose favorites, but this is my best attempt. here goes nothing.

by Sevish:
What Year Is This?
Gleam, obviously
Plot Hole

by Xotla:
Dance of the Forest Lights
Funkrotonal
Mollusc Merchant

by Elaine Walker:
Vultan Valley
Wave Equation
Invaders

random music I found on youtube:

and yes I know that I pretty much only listen to these 3 artists but they're really good and I don't mind listening to the same music on loop. (but if anyone has good microtonal recommendations still lmk ofc)

 

[reelrollsweat]

Can't get rid of me forever, Squidboards text editor.

Spoiler: offensively long post

Addressing artists other users have mentioned:

• Bleed American is one of The Albums of 2001, right up there with Is This It (by The Strokes). I don't care for Jimmy Eat World's newer stuff, though.
• Sorry, whoever mentioned "Tomorrow Comes Today," catch me listening to "El Mañana" and "On Melancholy Hill."
  • Young the Giant has the best cover of any Gorillaz song I know of. I may be biased. Read the rest of this obscenely long post for more.
• I've listened to a couple of Patricia Taxxon albums and I want more. Bicycle is my favorite so far.
• I need to listen to more PUP. I've clicked with "Free At Last" and cried to "Sleep in the Heat," but that's about it.
• I only know Big Giant Circles through the There Came An Echo soundtrack, but it was enjoyable enough to save to my Spotify library.
• I don't have anything intelligent to say about these next two artists, so: bo en and Ginger Root good :)

Obligatory text wall just for the garages (hooray!)
Disclaimer: I have not listened to their entire discography; they are so prolific that keeping up at their busiest was difficult and I eventually fell behind. That being said, they are worth a listen. If I had to recommend one album to start with, I'd call UNSTABLE peak garages material between the powerful themes and refined sound. A band that prolific inevitably missed some of their swings, and I'd say their early stuff is rough. Yes, it's technically part of The Aesthetic™, but that doesn't make it pleasant to listen to. Other songs by the garages worth checking out include "Lose You," "Eyes in the Dark," "DEICIDE," the Mike Townsend Quintilogy, and seven minute love letter to making music "Ron Monstera (Fundamentals)". the garages also had collaborator albums that the other 23 Blaseball teams could contribute to. I'm on one of them. Ignoring that (as I have since disowned my contribution out of shame), my favorite song from all of the other team albums combined is (the also very long) "The Tug" by one of the Hellmouth Sunbeams. I need to listen to more of the garages; it's been such a long time. We are all love Blaseball.

My Spotify top artists predictions:

• Saying my favorite song is by a guy called Car Seat Headrest should sufficiently scare people into not asking more about my tastes in music.
• I refuse to shut up about ROAR. A forum game titled "what song does the user above remind you of?" introduced me to "Hope" in late 2022. For me, ROAR perfectly encapsulates the "when you're up, you enjoy the music; when you're down, you understand the lyrics" meme.
  • If you have Strong Opinions on Return of the Mammalians, please listen to "Reaction Video Dream" and thank me later.
• Hot take, apparently: Daniel Johnston did not make "outsider" music. It doesn't matter that he was mentally ill and working with unsuitable recording equipment. He had and acknowledged his musical influences. You can hear them if you listen for them over the banging of his chord organ.
  • My favorite Daniel Johnston song is one of the better songs from one of his worse albums: "Hate Song." I will not elaborate here, but I am willing to squidpost upon request.
• I prefer Porter Robinson's first two albums over SMILE!, but from the creative perspective I respect that it was exactly the album he needed to make and share.
• Blood Cultures is making it in based solely on "Set It On Fire." Blood Cultures encourages death of the author in their music by refusing to explain who they are and what they do, so I associate the loss of a life and my implication in the situation with the song. And the Skate Story trailer, I guess. ("You are a demon of glass and pain.")
• I saw glass beach on someone else's list and considered putting them in the first section, but the first glass beach album is SUCH a vibe I had to acknowledge my listening experience. I'm not even transing my gender in the same direction as j or any of the songs' subjects, that whole album just goes too hard. (Sorry, plastic death didn't do it for me in the same way.)
  • Also shouting out the "Beach Life-in-Death" cover. ("I! Don't! Want! To! Go! INSAAAAAAAAAAAAANE!")

Other specific artists:

• I have listened to Young the Giant's entire discography. They decided to challenge the prevalence of white leads in indie rock by making their most recent album for and about fellow disaporic South Asians. (I think three of six members are Indian American?) All of their music also stands firmly on its own merits.
• Arcade Fire made wildly inconsistent music. Funeral is so good I wanted it played at my funeral before all the Win Butler nonsense got exposed. The Suburbs is great too. Can't say I enjoyed the rest of their discography.
• (points at This Is It and Room on Fire) This is brilliant... (redirects attention to The New Abnormal) ...but I like this.
  • "Drums, please, Fab."
• It's hard to sell people on Crywolf because you'll never hear anything quite like what he makes. Most people could go without ever hearing it. I vibe so hard with the way he makes magic out of tender instrumentals and harsh digital soundscapes. And the lyrics? Poetry! Find the literal, actual poem that accompanies "Quantum Immortality" and you'll see what I mean.
• Polite Fiction dropped one heck of an EP ten years ago, then vanished to work on his furry webcomic. Huge respect, but I want a second Perspective.
• For whatever reason, I can't make myself like Radiohead and Nirvana.

Music in phases of my life:

• I was a big EDM listener in high school. Since I already mentioned Porter Robinson and bo en, my favorite label was Monstercat. I stopped following them after they made terrible business decisions (NFTs), though. I bought a shirt from them the year before, too, and it's one of the highest quality shirts I own, so I can't get myself to stop wearing it.
• Rocktronic followed me out of high school. Think Puppet, The Bloody Beetroots, Sullivan King. All that? Still slaps. ("The Worst Part About Me" by Brain Pain tastes like the aftermath of the worst day of my life. I had the lyrics memorized in 2022.)
• Post-rock saved my life in college. Departure Songs (We Lost the Sea, not Hammock) kept me company on the night of my 18th birthday so I could stay awake long enough to hit up the crisis hotline. I still keep Explosions in the Sky on my microSD card. If only my phone had expandable storage and a headphone jack. (For once, this isn't a complaint about New Smartphone Design Bad, as awful as my search for a new phone has been. I run an iPhone 7 with a baked potato battery in this 2024 because I can't afford anything better.)
• I guess I'm in my depressing music phase? ROAR and Crywolf make Going Through It music.
  • I shouldn't be in my depressing music phase. I briefly had a major lapse in rational behavior/upholding my personal values following a bizarre (and ultimately unpleasant) new experience last year that sounds kind of like the opposite of that. The playlist I made about it is ABSOLUTELY not something I should share.

Genre???

• It took me 20 years of frequent exposure to post-contact Hawaiian music to acquire a taste for it. That being said, I do have that taste now. At the very least, you should give Hawaiian slack key guitar a try.
• Having grown up in a converted Christian household, I actively dislike contemporary Christian music. Instead, I listened to the more approachable Switchfoot and Relient K and Capital Kings.
  • I will make one exception and one exception only: "Oceans" by Hillsong UNITED.
• I know the bare minimum about classic British punk, for Science!
• YouTube recommends me Midwest emo and Japanese city pop playlists. While I don't necessarily know many artists or songs by name, I like the vibes.

My guilty pleasures include Olivia Rodrigo, MisterWives, Bag Raiders, whatever the absolute genius who soundtracked the first two Shrek movies was cooking up, and the Cookie Run OSTs. Nerd rock, OSTs from games I'll never play and movies I'll never watch, and artists I don't listen to clutter my Spotify data from before I developed my own tastes. I have never not been single. (That adds more context than you'd think to some of my picks.) Finally, another playlist. I should add to it at Not Bedtime.

Yes. Somehow I always imagine Off The Hook dancing to the song when I hear it. Seems to work well in my head.

Donda by Kanye West has got to have some of the best and groundbreaking album art I've ever seen:

Same goes to the single Meet the Grahams by Kendrick Lamar:

But seriously, my favourite album covers have got to be Illmatic by Nas and the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West (the uncensored digital version).

I know the cover for MBDTF is for shock value looks pretty disgusting, but I feel it carries the overall message of the album well.

 

[Neko :D]

Greetings....

I have changed in the span of I don't feel like counting the exact amount of days.
So, here we go again:
I will start with what HASN'T changed.

• d4vd
• bo en

Why have I stopped liking the others?
Well...
I may have listened to them a little, tiny baby bit too much... but that doesn't really matter, as this is a thread about my favorites, not least favorites....
(MOVING ON)

I don't really like anything other than these two now, but if you have any recommendations, please tell!
"d4vd" and "bo en" doesn't really explain much, does it now? SOOOOOOooooOo, I will list my favorites out of them.

• d4vd:

- "Here With Me" (Still :3)
- "Romantic Homicide"
- "Poetic Vulgarity"
- "Sleep Well"
- "My House Is Not A Home"

• bo en:

- "Every Day" (Also still :D)
- "My Time" (Also also still :P)
- "I'll Fall" (WOW! A new one!)
- "Our Time"
- "WHITE SPACE"
- "Duet"
- "Pale Machine"
- "I Hate Winter"
- "A Home For Flowers
- "Intro"
- "Where We Used To Play"

*insert absurdly hilarious bugs bunny photo*

AND THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

 

[TOD13]

-Bathtime in Clerkenwell
-The Show Must Go On
-Kix
-Don't Get High No More
-I Always Kill The Things I Love

 

[missingno]

Hard to narrow down just one single, but my favorite artist altogether has to be Porter Robinson. Got tickets to see him this weekend, super excited for that.

Just going through my library for other stuff I love and completely unable to narrow any of this down, in alphabetical order since I don't want to try and put a list like this in any particular order, and definitely forgetting lots more: 2 Mello, Alohaii, Avicii, Blind Guardian, Blue Stahli, Camellia, Celldweller, Daft Punk, Depeche Mode, Dragonforce, Dream Theater, Fatboy Slim, Feint, Foo Fighters, Fox Stevenson, Ghost, The Glitch Mob, HammerFall, Illenium, Inabakumori, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, The Killers, Madeon, Maduk, Moe Shop, Mr. Bill, Mystery Skulls, Nirvana, The Offspring, Pendulum, Powerwolf, The Prodigy, The Qemists, Ronnie James Dio, San Holo, Snail's House, Sonata Arctica, Sponzi, Stessie, Synthion, TheFatRat, TOOL, USAO, Veela, Voicians, and Weird Al Yankovic.

I'm also the type of degenerate that listens to ridiculous meme mashup albums that keep popping up in my Youtube recommendations, to the point where that's all I know of more mainstream pop music. Shoutouts to Pluffaduff, Jazzwave, TCMusic, LibraH, William Maranci, Jake Ranney, Siivagunner, and of course Neil Cicierega.

For game OSTs, Chrono Trigger is the GOAT. Undertale/Deltarune has to be second. Jet Set Radio and anything else by Hideki Naganuma. The Word Ends With You. Them's Fightin' Herds for taking already fantastic tracks and doing some kind of Dynamic Music System witchcraft in-game.

Hey, you have stuff on your list I recognize! If you don't know them already, may I interest you in The Bloody Beetroots and Puppet? Also, do you listen to Neil Cicierega as Lemon Demon?
