songs that resonate with you?

I could easily just say Buckethead, but here are my top 3.

Both Padmasana and Big Sur Moon have a unique calming quality to them. Whenever I need some time to reflect, I just listen to these two.

Brewer In The Air is a very special song to me. It was the first Buckethead song I heard and the one that got me hooked. If I need something to cheer me up or pump me up, this is the song the first song I go to.

@ ThatWasMyKil - TY for Bon Iver
@ Chompy - YOU ARE MY HERO for putting Cowboy Dan

This song makes me thing about death. It makes me happy sometimes, and sometimes sad, but still somehow happy.

Nostalgia and it's just awesome. Lyrics have some meaning for me.

I listen to mostly rock and alternative. Most of it would be kinda "angry" sounding, but most of the music that really "resonates" with me is happy and uplifting music.

This is the first video game I simply could not beat. Back then you'd lose or miswrite the password that you write on bits of paper and you end up playing the game from scratch again. The monsters also came in greater numbers posing a sizeable threat when you only have one player character. Ended up beating the game years later, though never on the original.

One thing they needed to tell us is you had to desroy the little objects surrouding the bosses before you can damage him. took me years to figure that out. So many DOMs and BFMs wasted on the Terran boss ._.

Quite ironically, I learned to use the word "pineapple" from this song. Using freedom of speech as a shield to product these kind of material in seemingly childish cartoons is like putting sex scenes in comics for prepubescent girls so they can start having sex at age 13

I don't know why no one's posted these Maybe because the last time I played with the sounds on was three years ago. All the more nostalgic when you listen to them again.

Took me 6 days and 15+ hours to prepare this post, the longest I have ever spent preparing a single piece of writing in my life. Songs that resonated with me I threw out; the songs that truly struck me I left in. You'd be surprised how many songs you truly resonate with or remember; Maplestory alone has over 130 songs. Since I speak two languages, the aggregate of songs in both languages is well over 9000.

But for me, music is a continuously influential, ever-changing entity, which plays just as large a role in shaping my moods and emotions as my moods and emotions do in choosing which melodies I listen to. Therefore, what resonates with me now may not be what resonates with me next Tuesday, or this afternoon. But for now, these are some that come to mind.
