So, I'm a bit late on this homework, but I decided to do this topic set by @missy, @charmaine, and @lyxzen. Top 5 songs of all time. Now, this one isn't so easy for me because I LOVE listening to music and I have quite an extensive 'favourites' list. Nevertheless, I have tried to think of the top 5 that really bring it home for me. In no particular order, here they are.
1. Snuff by Slipknot
2. Lounge Act by Nirvana
3. #1 Crush by Garbage
4. Wonderwall by Oasis
5. Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) by Marilyn Manson -- Yes, I know this is 'just a cover' and the Eurythmics did the original, but I prefer Manson's version.
Other songs that I really enjoy are:
* Dammit by Blink 182
* Beautiful by Eminem
* Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye (feat. Kimbra)
* Hearts a Mess by Gotye
* Boats and Birds by Gregory and the Hawk
* November Rain by Guns n' Roses
* Violet by Hole
* Bleeding Out by Imagine Dragons
* Slept So Long by Jay Gordon
* Cola by Lana Del Rey
* Once Upon a Dream by Lana Del Rey
* Magic by Coldplay
And the list goes on and on...
Each of these songs resonates with me for some reason or another, and I think that music can be very powerful because it does so. The lyrics and music itself touches people in various ways, and one person may feel more strongly towards a piece of music than another for whatever reason. Music is wonderful!
Until next time,
