Songs that are straight up brilliant.

This Heat - Makeshift Swahili

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHvqPT546to

Musically brilliant, but the lyrics basically express my difficulties with learning foreign languages. It's all Greek to me!

(and of course remember to make room for the idea that nobody else agrees)

the older I get, the less impressed I get.

my list would probably consist of movie score stuff... I won't bore you.

pbradley · 10.30.2009, 02:05 AM

Thanks, geezer.

FreshChops · 10.30.2009, 02:21 AM

if it makes you feel cooler....

pbradley · 10.30.2009, 02:25 AM

It does.

FreshChops · 10.30.2009, 02:39 AM

interesting and different don't equate to brilliant by default. That song sounds like dime a dozen high school band dribble being produced at any given moment in any given town (and I'm a mundane bore?)

questions if you would know brilliant if you even heard it?

pbradley · 10.30.2009, 02:52 AM

The song I submitted is from 1981. Even then, it contains the purity that those "dime a dozen" bands that you forcibly imagine don't have.

Etc. Records seems just as, if not more, predictable. Do arpeggios amaze you that much more?

Tim Roth + that = must see

I guess I'd be lying if I said no...., but I'm not claiming to be brilliant, nor my playing. but, do you separate "different" from "brilliant"

Oh hell yes! Beautiful score. this is one of the few I had to buy (iTunes) cause I couldn't find a rip.

the film is equally as impressive too. Tim Roth, that guy with the eye that does weird things, that cute european looking gurl..... the end was pretty intense too. dark, like the whole movie (and score)

rep'd.
Not too many people have seen it, that's for sure. it's a fucking gem. the end makes me cry like a fucking baby. AND the duel is epic.

Do you? You're the one that raised the objection to the link I submitted. I don't think there is any grounds for objection when it comes to taste in music. If you like arpeggios, then arpeggios are serving their purpose. Why should I object?

I wasn't gonna say it, but you fessed up.... I don't cry, the light just gets in my eye or something....

And yes, the duel is EPIC. So fucking smooth the way he lays his cig down (that he otherwise doesn't smoke) first.... then lights it later, off the strings.

I recommend it to everyone I know, but no one sees it. My fav Tim Roth movie (right there with Gridlock'd, just kidding).

terriblecanyons · 10.30.2009, 03:23 AM

if they don't see it, what can I say, their fucking loss. I'm glad it's not well-known, even. a lot of people wouldn't (and don't) understand.

I've listened to this song far too many times this week. I go giddy like a little girl at it.

I did a similar thing with this

I suspect these both fit, because neither of them are spectacularly avant-garde, just incredibly good.

Toilet & Bowels · 10.30.2009, 08:29 AM

this song is pretty amazing, and not really like anything else

I've been listening to "Peaches En Regalia" by Zappa over and over again for weeks.
