So I wanted to listen to some music online the other day and I discovered Jango.com. I listened to the Hot Alternative Playlist, which I have linked in the title. The website is brilliant, if you're stuck without music and you're near a computer I would recommend it. I'm no expert about the pros and cons of streaming websites but it suited my taste in music well.
Anyway whilst listening to their playlist I noted down four amazing songs that my iPod is seriously embarrassed to not have already:
1. The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun
This song is not only a classic and inspirational tune, but who can't resist it's charms? As it puts a smile on your face, even on a gloomy day.
2. Massive Attack - Teardrop
This song is stunning. It invokes in me a sense of peace as well as greatness, like something spectacular is about to happen. I feel that this means something special to me and yet I am unable to put my finger on what it is. It may not make sense but it's like this song holds some sort of lost memory.
3. Muse - Feeling Good
The soothing climatic intro grows into that rocky guitar riff which we all adore. It has Bellamy singing into a speaker phone which nobody could make sound so brilliant. Before slowing the tempo with Mat's soprano wails fading out into silence. Leaving us all feeling good.
4. Gary Jules - Mad World
This simplistic song is beautiful and undeniably stirs emotions in all of us. Sometimes all you need is a piano and a voice to bring tears to your eyes.
