Musical Experiences

[MICrophone]

Simple really. Talk about your musical experiences, whether playing or listening, live or at home.

[Panik!]

I've only had one song give me chills.

Cosmic Love - Florence and the Machine

Well, The only music experience I have that's interesting is making music in FL studio. Also, I got rickroll'd millions of times.

The first time I listened to Silversun Pickups, it was just awesome, now I almost have every song by them on iTunes.

The ending song of Princess Mononoke,
The first time I watched that movie was on a date.
It made me cry...

[JacktheOrk]

Your date made you cry Lol
Also the first time i heard/saw the video to ♥♥♥♥ Perfect it made me sad then happy
As with Chances by Athlete but not the video, it was mainly cause of it being played at the end of a really compelling Doctor Who episode!

Everytime I hear Interstellar Travel by Seikan Hikou I feel weird inside. Probably because I relate it to...someone...

[MessengerOfDreams]

What really compels me to music is the visual I get for it, whether it be music videos in my own head, great music videos or visuals in real life, or when I hear a song during my travels that totally relates to where I'm at or what I'm thinking at the moment.

Example: Coldplay's video for "Yellow." The video consists of nothing but Chris Martin walking along a beach during the transition from Dusk to Dawn. It's simple, and some people may be bored the first time seeing it, but it has a stunning atmosphere that sticks with you.

Another Example: TV on the Radio's "Wolf Like Me." The song itself is like a sudden can of spinach with me, I can actually run a 3 minute half mile with it because of its fast pace and action-film feeling. It's got such an acrobatic speedy feel that I envision the music video pretty much consisting of two people far away from each other running to each other, leaping over obstacles and fighting through problems to reach each other.

Exhibit 3: On my way to a meeting once, I crossed a bridge to downtown with fog so thick you couldn't see anything but the bridge, and I happened to be listening to Super Mario Galaxy's Teresa Waltz, which we know as SM63's Boo Mansion. Chilling moment.
