Safety Dance - Men Without Hats
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcOZ6xFxJqg
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
And surprise 'em with the victory cry
Say, we can act if want to
If we don't nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine

Until it Sleeps (I think this is the perfect song for emo-kids :) ) and One by Metallica
the album Best of the Beast by Iron Maiden. if you can't get the whole album, go for these songs: Fear of the Dark; Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter; The Evil that Men do; Running Free; Hallowed Be Thy Name
i'll second Dire Straights/Mark Knopfler, Led Zeppelin and Girls just wanna have fun by Cyndi Lauper
I have been waiting for a thread like this :)
Ookay...
I have highlighted some personal favourites in a different colour. Apologies in advance for bombarding you with all this music.
Jimmy Eat World
Quite possibley my favourite band. Labelled as emo - they're not :D. Songs range from pure alternative rock with kick-*** guitar tunes, to more melodic sounds (all with excellent lyrics.) I would recommend every single song they've ever written, but here are some of the best...
23
The Authority Song
Night Drive
Believe in what you want
A Sunday (Acoustic)
Work
Lucky Denver Mint
Greenday
Okay we're going a little more punk now :) Some of the greatest lyrics ever here; absolute genius. Definitely some powerful anti-establishment here.
Jesus of Suburbia
Holiday
Letterbomb
Brain Stew
Redundant
Walking Contradiction
Panic! At the Disco
You'll either hate them or you'll love 'em. They receive alot of harsh criticism, but honestly, they really are quite good at what they do. Their music is definitely unique; an acquired taste.
Build God, then We'll Talk
Time to Dance
Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off
I Write Sins not Tragedies
Mad as Rabbits
When the Day met the Night
Nine in the Afternoon
Plus 44 | +44

No it Isn't
When your Heart Stops Beating

Here we have Londoner Kate Nash. Once again, very unique music. I went to see her in concert with a friend - she was outstanding.
Foundations
Mouthwash
The Nicest Thing
Merry Happy
Maximo Park
I'm not entirely sure where you're from, but this is a British indie rock band; quite quirky may I add.

Sara Bareilles' "Love Song" is every other song on the radio now. Corinne Bailey Rae has some nice tunes.
Thank you! I've downloaded about 100 songs already!
You guys can post more if you like!
anything by the Red Hot Chili peppers. Consider looking into the John Frusciante solo stuff, my favorite being his album The Will To Death. He's an amazing song writer, and its nice to hear him outside the context of the chili peppers.
Dreamcatcher by Secret Garden
chances are you won't like it but I thought I'll give it a shot. New age-y and with an interesting intro.
