Favourite songs v2.0

[Té Rowan]

„Ormurin Langi“ is a Faeroese folk ballad that was rocked up by the rock band Týr in 2002. As I recall, the CD sold in good numbers in Iceland.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhiOYIYUlcE has the lyrics subbed in Spanish.

[Té Rowan]

[PCHeintz72]

Té Rowan - For that first one of Cotton Eye Joe, I always liked the Rednex version.

There is something supremely funny and ironic about a modern Swedish band pretending to be a old style U.S. Civil War era Kentucky Bluegrass hillbilly style band...

Nice, very nice both of you. Actually have both some Vanessa Mae and Lindsey vids already on the HDD.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v99uwsOBvBU — „Elskaðu náungann“ (“Love Thy Neighbour”) with the prog group Trúbrot. Yes, it’s Wagner. The Pilgrim Chorus from Tannhäuser, to be specific.

[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3VjTcYYdRw — Can’t remember if I ever posted this before: “The Way Old Friends Do” with ABBA. One of my longstanding favourites.

Others from the hit parade, and a few that aren't:

Reality Used to Be a Friend of Mine -- P.M. Dawn

I Wanna Love You -- Jade

The Logical Song -- Supertramp

Speed of Light -- Joe Satriani

Echoes -- Michael Walthius

Born To Be Wild -- Chickenwolf

[PCHeintz72]

I second the Logical song one... a good one.

Here is a different variation that makes one wonder what drugs the class was on:

This one was not too bad:

[Vocaloid]

New favorite starwars/Queen parody...Star Wars Bohemian Rhapsody

[Té Rowan]

Some songs in Danish:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lbfuYHZsHU — Bent Werther sings »Den gamle tomme stald« (known in the US as “Bridle Hanging On The Wall” or owt like that).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhwuLNwHjdA — »VLTJ« by the group Tørfisk. It’s about a railway line now known as Vestbanen, previously as the Vemb-Lemvig-Thyborøn Jernbane.

[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE2JhUY-E14 — Finlandia.

[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n03g8nsaBro — The Tremeloes: “Silence is Golden”

[CRBWildcat]

I get depressed easily. It doesn't take much to get me crying, to get myself wondering whether life is all it's cracked up to be. As I type this, the tears are falling and the area around my eyes are red. By all rights, I shouldn't be listening to this. I should be unplugging my headphones, closing the browser, and retreating as far away as I can.

...

...So why can't I stop?

The Incredible Hulk - The Lonely Man Theme (Extended)

[CRBWildcat]

Listened to several songs since the last one in an effort to crowd the sadness and shove it out of my brain. Of course, since two of them were insane and cool, respectively, it was inevitable that they've been stuck on repeat in there for hours:

Marvel vs Capcom 3 - Theme of Deadpool. It helps put me in the right frame of mind for my current art project, anyway.

Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth - Pursuit ~ Lying Coldly
