Can't stop listening to Camera Obscura recently.

This is by far one of my favorite threads on this forum. I love finding out what other people listen to. I love all kinds of music, though recently I discovered I've been sleeping on Prefab Sprout.

She just released a new album too and I'm so sad I can't listen to it.

I really already love Built to Spill, and their lyrics, but this song all the way through...

This song always makes me feel good. It's gotten me through some tough times and been there for some of the best times. It was the first song my wife and I chose to play at our wedding immediately after being married. Released in 1974 Shuggie Otis produced it and plays most of the instruments. If you like this song it's also the name of the extra super excellent album on which it appears.

The Devil's Chasing Me

Really enjoyed listening to this one.

LeAnn Rimes who won the "Masked Singer" competition in December is one of my favorite female singers:







LeAnn Rimes - How Do I Live (Live at MPTF's "Night Before" Oscars Party) - YouTube

How awesome is it that a tinnitus forum would have such good taste in music?

This is the real support right here.

Ain't no stoppin' Sister Nancy.

 

[T-Spike]

Love me some Beatles. I've listened to this song + alternate versions so many times.

Ain't no stoppin' Sister Nancy.

Oh man! I love this tune!! Haven't heard it in years - BIG UP Sister Nancy!


P.S what other tunes you like?

Oh man! I love this tune!! Haven't heard it in years - BIG UP Sister Nancy!

P.S what other tunes you like?

Heck yeah! Bam Bam is from her 1982 record called One, Two. The whole album is fantastic... quintessential 80s Dancehall right there.

Other tunes... oh, man. So many, so many... I like many different genres, but my library is dominated by 60s/70s soul and funk music. Like this heavy-topic gem by Eugene McDaniels which feels appropriate considering the headlines lately. This song was released in 1971, by the way. If you're a Beastie Boys fan you'll surely recognize the sample they used Get It Together.

One of the great British albums of the noughties.

This is a wonderful Swedish folk song capturing the beauty of summer.

I used to sit in my reading chair with a 'fika' (coffee and biscuit) enjoying this piece throughout the summers. Now I can't listen to music at all, but I have a hope of being able to enjoy this again sometime. Hence, this piece makes me quite emotional, both in terms of beauty and what I've lost.

what were these some of these "favourite pieces" you miss playing?

Here's some of my favorite pieces, no particular order, just on top of my mind;















Just don't spike yourself up too bad listening, haha

Mate, this is some eclectic stuff. Wish I had known you in my pre-tinnitus days; you would have very much opened some doors for me and my repertoire.

Just don't spike yourself up too bad listening, haha

My thoughts exactly

 

[Damocles]

On a general note, someone has probably already said this somewhere along the 37 pages this thread is spanning, if not several times on the forum itself; but I don't think there can be a human on this earth who has ever loved music quite as much as a tinnitus sufferer has loved music.

 

[Damocles]

I don't find any of the sounds in this song aggravate my reactive tinnitus (although I do turn the volume down for the drum and synth interlude):



This was this years Eurovision entry by Iceland, and it was bloody amazing! (imo).

Don't think I've ever heard a song at the Eurovision that I liked so much.

My last obsession in music before I ruined my hearing was Nick Cave and related bands, especially The Birthday Party.



This is a favourite. Lyrics by Anita Lane, music by Blixa Bargeld, performed by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

I really like obscure lyrics like this that's very open to interpretation.

For one of those days when you feel that you need a drink...
