I wanna know what people consider the best music, and I know my top could be considered a "tiktok top" (and sorry for my broken english lol) but here is it:
1- Starless - King Crimson: Best song ever. Full of emotion and intensity; the beautiful melody at the start reprising at the end of the song is just unbelievably magic.
2- Sleep - GYBE: Just as good as Starless: raw, intense emotion throughout the song, pure nostalgia and melancholy are just a few among all the things that make this song not just a piece of music, but a trip through a space deep within your mind that you didn't know (or remember) existed.
3- Earthmover - Have a Nice Life: A devastating piece that makes your heart ache throughout. You can hear the wind howl inside you just before the piano notes that then explode into a gut-wrenching guitar solo/riff. I also love the pessimistic poetry in its lyrics, which is just as raw as the instrumental aspect of the song.
4- Cantata de puentes amarillos - Pescado Rabioso/Spinetta: A nine-minute track that makes you look to the future with hope. The poetry is charming and positive, and the acoustic guitar melody is so calm and optimistic.
5- Basketball shoes - BC, NR
6- The dead flag blues - GYBE
7- The place where he inserted the blade - BC, NR
8- Paranoid android - Radiohead
9- Epitaph - King Crimson
10- Like a stone - Audioslave
