Songs that get to you.

[eleven eleven]

Can anyone supply me with a song that instantly affects you?

In the same style as Neutral Milk Hotel, The Decemberists, Bright Eyes, ...you know what I'm talking about.

[MADSTA]

You know, good songs.

[eleven eleven]

This guy knows what I'm TALKIN' BOUT

[eleven eleven]

But really.

Great Lake Swimmers - Moving Pictures Silent Films?

[bard]

any mewithoutyou songs.

january 1979
messes of men
the sun and the moon
paper hanger
seven sisters

[eleven eleven]

Checked out great lake swimmers, and im liking it.

Never listened to mewithoutyou, although i've always been very close to doing so.

What album do you recommend?

[kevinrocks409]

mewithoutYou is great. I'd suggest A->B Life and Brother, Sister. They're polar opposites but my favorite mwY material. Plus, the hidden track on A->B is reminiscent of Neutral Milk (who i'm listening to now, ironically.)

[eliselovesmusic]

John Lennon - Love
John Lennon - Mother
Cat Stevens - Father and Son (It gets to me anyway)
The Eagles - Desperado
Kings of Leon - Cold Desert
Bruce Springsteen - Working on a Dream
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should Have Come Over
Creedence Clearwater Revival - As Long As I Can See The Light
The Eagles - Wasted Time
Micheal Jackson - Man in the Mirror (to a certain extent)
The Beatles - Eleanor Rigby (I have my reasons)
Otis Redding
Bread

That should keep ya going haha. I know that I basically listed the most obviously 'touching' songs but they're my favourites so yeah....

This could turn into a great thread :-)

I'd also

[UnderMyDreams]

John Lennon - Love

This could turn into a great thread :-)


I agree... I think we should leave it open to other genres too... I don't listen to much in that genre, butttt I'll post some stuff (which might get me torn apart in here, but hey its cool.)

Brand New - Soco Amaretto Lime
blink-182 - What Went Wrong
Boxcar Racer - There Is
All Time Low - Six Feet Under the Stars
Red Car Wire - Affinity

[chipdip18]

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - The Dead Flag Blues. Gets me everytime.

[eliselovesmusic]

blink-182 - What Went Wrong




The title says it all. I haven't heard it but it sounds like an "awwwww!!!" song haha.

If we're looking at pop/punk kind of stuff I'm gonna have to throw in Fall Out Boy's "Where's Your Boy Tonight" THE ACOUSTIC VERSION. Patrick's voice. Yes.

Green Day's "Macy's Day Parade" and even "Redundant" and "Good Riddance" were pretty awesome.

[bard]

mewithoutYou's best album is catch for us the foxes in my opinion

[eliselovesmusic]

Haven't heard much of mewithoutYou...

Apparently Panic at the Disco's "Northern Sownpour" gets to you but I disagree.

[theguy77]

you might like william doyle's folk stuff, hes got a new song on the myspace

www.myspace.com/williamdoyle (http://www.myspace.com/williamdoyle)

otherwise hes in the style of flaming lips/beck with strong influence from shoegaze, electronica, and 60s pop

[popdisaster00]

Anyway, City and Colour falls into this thread.

[kissmegoodbye]

the ultimate "gets to me" song is definitely "the trapeze swinger" by iron and wine. every single time.

Ohh so you're a mwY fanboy?
Your taste..


Songs that are great? King Kool Savas - Blasen and Schwule Rapper.

[eliselovesmusic]

Kings of Leon (as I've already mentioned) are awesome.

"Cold Desert" "Arizona" "Be Somebody" and the hidden track on Youth and Young Manhood "Milk" and "True Love Way" are all 'get to you' songs.

"Ragoo" by them is definitley worth a listen purely because of the hook in the chorus haha.

[Tyler Revolution]

Nick Drake - Place to Be.
