"For Whom The Bell Tolls by Metallica and "The Great Gig In The Sky" by Pink Floyd, for completely separate reasons. "For Whom The Bell Tolls" amazes me because the intro is done on bass. "The Great Gig In The Sky" amazes me because the female singer isn't black.

Taste is such an odd thing... I tried listening to that song and was left thinking 'Um, people actually listen to this?' Likewise, anything I consider beautiful you will no doubt shake your head at. Oh well.

To be fair, here are a few tracks I can listen to any day:

Gandalf - Rhythm Of The Tide
Forest of Shadows - Wish
Gorgoroth - Carving A Giant
Innerpartysystem - What We Will Never Know
Johnny Hates Jazz - Shattered Dreams

For some reason I find some very odd genre of music beautiful... from new age ambiances to smooth jazz, from standard pop music to death metal... of course I listen to video game music as well, that's a given.

I don't want to start anything, but the cross in your Christian userbar or whatever those things are called, is taller on the top then bottom, and to me it looks like an inverted cross.

How could I forget the Theme from Cosmos? It's the theme song for the TV series Cosmos hosted by Carl Sagan. The song is a movement from Vangelis' album Heaven and Hell.

El-P's entire catalog. his music is so dense and layered, so many things going on and they all come together to create these beautiful songs. i've been listening to the guy nonstop for the last 8 years and i still hear new things i hadn't heard before when i listen to his music, even to this day.

here are some of my personal favorites...

Excellent choice TC. For me, it's either various classical music pieces, Learning to Fly by Pink Floyd, or the song you posted.

There are plenty. Strauss's "Im Abendrot," Rachmaninoff's "Zdes Khorosho," Duparc's "Chanson Triste," Tchaikovsky's "Once again, as before, I am alone," Brahms's Four Serious Songs... the list goes on. And that's just songs.

Great choice! That's probably my favorite Pink Floyd song.

For my choice, I'll say Willful Suspension of Disbelief by Modest Mouse.
