Ever Fallen In Love...

[SligoBrewer]

Have any of you heard a song that in your mind sounds so perfect, everything about that song clips so neatly in2 place and then you think that you will never ever get sick of that song.

i believe i have fallen for a song.. a quite discreet song.

L. Wells - Franz Ferdinand

Everything is just fantastic about it... and the video..

Any similar experiences?

[Bully Bull]

Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla

Never grow tired of hearing that song.Always gives me a lift.

[Lionel Ritchie]

Birdhouse In Your Soul by They Might Be Giants.

Can barely remember the video and don't want to as 'pop videos' are the devils work.

The song is perfect and timeless though.

[Anto McC]

Babe I'm gonna leave you - Led Zeppelin

[Neish]

Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla

Never grow tired of hearing that song.Always gives me a lift.

Agree 100%

Another two
At the River-Groove Armada
Unfinished Sympathy-Massive Attack

Dam thought this was going to be a discussion on which version of "Ever Fallen in Love" was best. FYC win! Although do love the original by the Buzzcocks for its vim! Dont much like Pete Yorn's version in Shrek but it got my kids singing it. Just did a search on Wikipedia, jaysus there were loads of verisions! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ever_Fallen_in_Love%3F

Oh and back on topic, one of the most perfect moments in music, is High & Dry, Radiohead, or I am the Ressurection, Stone Roses. Another song that is timeless for me tho is Whipping Boy, Twinkle.

[BohsPartisan]

Beetlebum - Blur
Tender - Blur
Down in the tube station at midnight- The Jam
Exit Music - Radiohead

personal favourite: Black Star, Radiohead off the Bends. beautfiul stuff, along with Fake Plastic Trees, never fails to get shivers up the spine. same with Tears, Stone Roses.... most recent one to make me swoon. Maps by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs..

Ill throw in Unintended - Muse and There Goes The Fear and The Man Who Told Everything by Doves. What the hell, Lucky Man by the Verve in there too. And Massive Attack, Safe From Harm.

Awww Conor didnt know u cared bout me that much!!! :p

Some great stuff there alright. Would have to add Nick Cave Into my Arms, my bro used it as first song at his wedding & it was just sooooo perfect. If I ever marry again (ha!) and the even more unlikely bit of having a "real" wedding I would have The Waterboys - A man is in love, Paul Weller - You do something to me or Relish - You I'm thinking of as my first dance. Gonna have to buy the Relish CDs again coz gave mine to a work colleague when he was leaving.

[BohsPartisan]

Paul Weller - You do something to me is a lovely song alright.

[Lionel Ritchie]

Smashing Pumpkins - a lot of the slower ones off Mellon Collie. Galapogos, Muzzle and In The Arms Of Sleep. .......................There Goes The Fear and The Man Who Told Everything by Doves.

Forgot about the Pumpkins. My LP of the nineties. To your choice cuts I'd add 'By Starlight'.

I picked up a brand new copy of Doves 'Last Broadcast' in Carrickmacross at Christmas. It cost me a fiver. Fantastic record.


Brilliant mind - Furniture

Ah ...Brilliant Mind

reminds me of being 13 ...summer 86, a girl called Jo and her perfect ...diddys! :p :)

BRILLIANT MIND

I'm at the stage

Where everything I thought meant something

Seems so unappealing

I'm ready for the real thing

But nobody's selling

Except you and yours

Saying open up your eyes and ears

And let me in



You must be out of your brilliant mind



You're at the stage

You want your empty words heard

And everybody's ready

They want to know your secret

But you are not telling

You're just gesturing saying open up your arms and hearts

And let me in



You must be out of your brilliant mind



I'm at the stage

Where I want my words heard

When no one wants to listen

Because everybody's yelling

About you and yours

And how I'd have the answer if I'd only open up, up, up

And let you in



They must be out of their brilliant minds



I said shame

Shame on you

Shame

Shame on you

Shame

Shame on you



You must be out of your brilliant mind

And they must be out of their brilliant minds

Everyone out of their brilliant minds

I'm must be out of my brilliant mind

My brilliant mind

I'm only Santa ...not a feckin' miracle worker.:p

Herself is a Mon ...which makes my boy half Mon. I looked into getting him a MonU shirt actually but it appears he's a bit too small (nearly 2).
This was in reprisal for the in-laws getting him a Monaghan Gah:eek: shirt which I pointed out to them is a garment very rarely worn by blokes ...training sessions aside.;)

[Pauro 76]

Forgot about that one. The best thing about the album, so many emotions all across the album. Add “Tonight Tonight” to that too. Did I mention Massive Attack “Teardrop”?

I think that's one of the reasons it started to lose them Gish and Siamese Dream era fans ...that it wasn't as uniform and also that the whole compression thing on the heavier tracks was drifting towards metal ...I agree with you though -it's what makes it a special record.

I've always found it odd that Adore got slated as much as it did at the time, whilst losing the Pumpkins half their fanbase. For me any band that can produce three records as good as Siamese Dream, Mellon Collie and Adore should always have a place in any bodie's collection, yet thhey seem to be a bit forgotten these days. I mean I know Machina was a stinker of an album and all but still!

[superfrank]

What's A Telephone Bill? - Bootsy Collins
Crown Of Love - Arcade Fire
Little Red Corvette - Prince
Love Rollercoaster - Ohio Players
Hit It And Quit It - Funkadelic
Be Alright - Zapp
Int The Morning - The Coral
Love For The Sake Of Love - Claudja Barry
More Than A Woman - Beegees/Tavares
Jesus Of Suburbia - Green Day
Rocket Number Nine - SunRa
She Lives In My Lap - OutKast
The Whole World - OutKast

They are all songs I'd call perfect.

Adore was criminally under-rated. One of the most beautiful albums I’ve heard. And most of them had a theme of sadness as most of it was dedicated to his mother who passed away. Machina had a handful of good songs but all the other Pumpkins albums are classics.

[Lim till i die]

Anybody who doesn't get chills down there spine the first time they hear "I Wanna be Adored" is well, spineless I guess :)

Although it's cliche "There Is A Light" still does it for me every time aswell

[jebus]

Generally I'd take this as my top ten Pumpkins songs I'd reckon, but Adore would probably be my favourite record of theirs

Perfect, Crestfallen, Appels + oranjes, blank page, by starlight, love, 1979, mayonaise, said sadly, jupiter's lament

all though what order I'd put those in is beyond me

Although it's cliche "There Is A Light" still does it for me every time aswell

They are spineless if they dont get the chill everytime they hear the opening bars on "I wanna be Adored"

As for me "Waiting" by the Devlins is better than "there is a light"....never seems to be a light at the end of my tunnel, am just always waiting!

And now it's all Eva Cassidy

And so I can only ascertain

That the light at the end of the tunnel

Is the light of an oncoming train
