Recently heard “feed the machine” for the first time and instantly wanna go destroy capatilsm and like join a picket line against the wealthy elite.
Any of you discover a song recently that just hit hard?
It just came out Friday and the fact that it is being called the last Beatles song just hits me a lot harder than being called the new Beatles song. The Beatles have always been a part of my life.
My mom raised me on the Beatles. One of my proudest moments as a son was taking her to see Paul McCartney in concert.
I proposed to my wife by hiding her engagement ring in the Hard Days Night DVD case. We had watched it on our first date. Our wedding song was In My Life.
We used to play Beatles songs as lullabies for both of our kids. When my son, who is autistic, was a toddler, playing Hey Jude would instantly calm him down.
So even though I wasn’t ever expecting anything from them again, the fact this song from the band who is my favorite, my mom’s favorite, my wife’s favorite, and my kids favorite has been dubbed “the last Beatles song”, hit me harder than I imagined it could.

The empty stage at the end of the video made me cry like I was watching a Pixar movie
Heard When Alexander Met Emma by Chumbawamba for the first time a few months ago and it made me cry hysterically and I’m not sure why

Well it made me feel sad, so yeah that’s a great answer.
Gonna try to play video games to avoid my emotions until I can sleep now, thanks.
First time I heard Blouses Blue play in Cyberpunk, it caught me off guard. Fuego by Bomba Estereo was another video game banger. Born Free by MIA went pretty hard, back in the day. That riff in Pantera’s Cemetery Gates never ceases to get me fired up. Bobby Shmurda’s Hot N**** is up there with the best eats, ever, and got me the first time.
Rodrigo y Gabriela - 11:11 what a journey
Harmony Parking Lot Song - Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains
“Here’s to our lives being meaningless And how beautiful it is Because freedom doesn’t have a purpose”
Really that whole album. Taught me a lot about how to be ok with being broken.
Havenless by Enslaved changed my life when I heard it for the first time in Metal: A Headbanger’s Journey.
Can’t believe it took so long to actually listen to Staight outta Compton, but that has some interesting observations on race and law enforcement in America.
Just this morning I was listening to Ramsey Lewis - Only when I’m dreaming and I had to run it back a few times just to soak it in.
I have been slowly dipping my toes in Brother Ali the past few months, and recently listened to this for the first time. His voice is awesome but some of the words may be a little hard to catch. It’s worth looking up the lyrics.

His voice is like caramel in my ears (in the most complimentary way), but it’s his lyrics that get me in this and a few others.
I first discovered Brother Ali coming down off a bunch of LSD, and that was some ear candy at the time. He’ll always have a special place in my musical heart.
Poor man’s poison’ feed the machine? Excellent track.
Yeah never heard them before but my gf had a feeling I would like them!
I have no idea if it’s what the singers had in mind but I feel so like pro union listening to it. So many corporations have proven a million times that the only reason they don’t kill more people is because of potential negative profits.
I’ve given up trying to crack where the identity of the band is, I’m pretty sure we’d be inline, but some of the tracks make us pause the music and discuss if we’re being duped by killer licks.
An excellent band with an excellent sound. I hope they make more albums!
The New Pornographers - Whiteout Conditions
I remember this album from when it came out, but I first heard this song again about a month ago. It encapsulates y feelings about the Gaza war, and how the more I learn, the more I feel like there are very few moral choices one can make.
Ado - Freedom. Such a powerful and versatile voice.
Fucking meme songs… Literally. Two specific ones I had heard a while in meme videos always sped up so I couldn’t understand the words. Find the original songs, Pretty Boy by Naethan Apollo and Cupid, Twin Version by FIFTY-FIFTY.
I definitely feel the lyrics hella hard to both after hearing them legitimately for the first time. To a lesser degree, The UwU Song is fucking hilarious.
