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
Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker, both former Blink 182 members, formed a new band with some other guys no one cares about named +44. They are pretty awesome ;)
Baby Come On
Little Death
No it Isn't
When your Heart Stops Beating
The Kings of Leon
Knocked Up
On Call
Mcfearless
Charmer
Fans
Motion City Soundtrack
Strange... yet brilliant :D
LG F.U.A.D. [Lets get ****ed up and die]
Everything is Alright
The Future Freaks Me Out
Kate Nash
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.
Our Velocity
Apply Some Pressure
Girls that Play Guitars
Kiss you Better
The Eagles
Need I say more?
Hotel California
Desperado
On the Border
James Dean
Witchy Woman
Random Song Selection that should go on your Ipod

Sara Bareilles' "Love Song" is every other song on the radio now. Corinne Bailey Rae has some nice tunes.
:thumbs_up Hey that's great stuff. I wasn't sure if anyone else liked Dire Straits and even Knopfer solo.Quote:

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.
actually I liked it. it's such a beautiful melody, and the violin! Lovely.Quote:

I just really like them, and they've got a new album out this year!! :D
Sick Puppies
Album: Dressed Up As Life
Songs I like: All The Same (Free Hugs)
Anywhere But Here
Deliverence
Too Many Words
This is one of my all time favourite bands, and I've already introduced a few friends to their music
30 Seconds To Mars
Albums: 30 Seconds To Mars
A Beautiful Lie
Songs I like: Attack
Oblivion
The Mission
Capricorn
Awesome stuff... Some of their songs are great just to scream along with when you've got heaps of anger or energy
Some people have mentioned Michael Jacksons Beat It and I love that song and I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned the cover of it by Fall Out Boy. I really really really like Fall Out Boy and John Mayers version of it...
get some Kinks, particularly the album Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround
highlights include Strangers, Lola, and Apeman
Foals, The Horrors and Chris T-T are great to get into if you have a diverse taste in music. Classic artists like The Smiths and The Cure are a must have too, as well as Joy Division if you're feeling particularly miserable :P Indie artists like The Clik Clik and Kings of Leon are also great too.
Since I got you into DEVO, let me get you into something similar, that you might like even more, even.
If you like DEVO, and if you like Japan, you should listen to POLYSICS.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYE8vPl4IaY (Polysics live London 2006-I love this performance especially at about a minute into it.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbfmWJBl6Qg (My favorite Polysics song)
I think I might have told you about them before. Oh well, ha ha.
They're also perfect for annoying your parents. I just wish I knew what they were saying!
:lol::lol::lol: Lily you got me into Polysics a long time ago! I love Rocket, Blackout Falllout and of course, My Sharona :pQuote:
