That moment that makes a song great

Enter Sandman intro would explain several blown speakers over the years.

The bit where she goes 'Meow' - fabulous.

First time I listened to that song, when the riff kicked in it basically changed my life!

Can say that about Smells Like Teen Spirit.

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes in to us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Quality lyrics to There Is A Light That Never Goes Out but so many of The Smiths songs had the most amazing lyrics

Only ever "hear" that sung as by the Gavin and Stacey crew, lol!

fantastic call.

 

[Benfleet A1]

No. Whitney Houston had an amazing voice and sang some of the great pop songs of the 1980s.

I'll fight you to the death over this one.

Then might I suggest Get In The Ring by Guns N Roses.

That's the sort of thing we're talking about

After you with the noose.

I've always seen The Smiths (one of my favourite bands of all time) as having many songs that are about depressing themes, but aren't in themselves depressing to listen to.

 

[Blueronron]

Is this the real life, is this just fantasy.....

Or the ending of the song with the gong fading

Long live Queen

 

[MK Shrimper]

As a huge Pogues fan, there's two songs squeezed together on the "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" album - Streets of Sorrow (quiet & mournful)/Birmingham Six (righteously angry). Love it when the latter kicks into the former.

 

[OldBlueLady]

Ok, can I have this one then? 1:18ish

Oh I agree, good to listen but some of the lyrics are a bit inclined to make me look around for a can of petrol and a match, if you know what I mean.

 

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

Probably far too mainstream but THAT key change in Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You is right up there for me.

Her finest moment was on a chat show with Serge Gainsbourg......!

 

[Benfleet A1]

Just for you Bretteangel. Their heyday I think.

I think the Russian Army were met to acting as security at this one but as the video shows, they didn't take their duties very seriously. :smile:
