Definitely a song you need tissues for.

Discovered this one not too long ago. They have a documentary right now in the theaters.

Judas Priest - Pain Killer

Somehow Rob Halford's high-pitched voice doesn't get to me the way that Geddy Lee's voice gets to me.

Judas Priest - Touch of Evil

 

[Jibralta]

Alice Cooper - Poison

Slaughter - Up All Night

I had such a crush on Mark Slaughter when I was 14. And the girl walking the Dobermans was totally me in my mind lol.

Our unsleepable friend
gets the message on an ill-wind.
'All your friends and your foes
would rather die than have to touch you'
TO SAY THE LEAST: Truly disappointed
truly, truly, truly, oh

Drank too much,
said too much,
and there's nowhere to go but down.
Young boy, I wanna help you.
SEE THESE LINES? Truly disappointed
truly, truly, truly, oh.

Don't talk to me now
about people who are "nice"
'cause I have spent my WHOLE LIFE
in RUINS...
because of people who were "nice"

This world may lack style, I know,
but each bud must blossom and grow.

Young girl one day we really will be old.
But the thing is: I love you NOW.

This is the last song I will ever sing.
No I've changed my mind again!
GOODNIGHT
AND THANK YOU.

First Aid Kit's rendition of the song America (originally by Simon and Garfunkel) made me actually hear the lyrics for the very first time.

Let's march out of this pandemic into the light.  Leave the fear behind.

The Cranberries - Zombie

Forgot all about this song. Loved it when I was 17/18 years old.

Anushka - You My Love

I dig the bass line.

I remember that album from when I was 16. I was so excited that there was a follow up for Sadeness Part I, which came out when I was about 13. That song and its video were like nothing else that was playing at the time. I remember being so inspired by it... I loved the imagery, the pan flute, the chanting, and the fact that I no freaking clue what the hell it was supposed to mean. I didn't know what anything meant back then, so it didn't matter. Interesting to look back on things I once loved, with today's perspective. 

Anyway, I don't know if I ended up getting my hands on MCMXC a.D. Things were harder to get back then. But I did get the next album. It was ok. Sadeness Part I is still my favorite.

Didn't the same group do 'Return to Innocence'?

[LaHermes]

Yes, that's them. 

Enigma is a German musical project founded in 1990 by Romanian-German musician and producer Michael Cretu.

Gregorian chant included in some of their pieces, and there is that insistent beat pervading the music.

Quite hypnotic in many ways.

I always liked the lyrics to this song:
