Title: Which song are you obsessed with at the moment,,, ???
Post by: Shush on February 05, 2014, 08:57:09 PM
I am sure I am not the only one. I love hundreds of songs, but every now and again, one of them can take root in my  brain, and stay there for some time, even if you have know it for years.

At the moment for me its "Far Better Thing" Been playing, Lost Songs a lot lately. On my walk home from work, the first time it happened by coincidence after the last clock turn back.  On my walk home, I walk through  a quite haunting looking abandoned Victorian brewery, then onto a pitch black unlit dark path flanked by trees,if lit, only ever lit by the stars, and occasionally the Moon.   Now, every night, and for the last few weeks, as soon as I start to arrive at the path,  I start "Far Better Thing"  In the lonely darkness it is an extremely powerful song, the build up, and the very personal lyrics. By the time I"m at the end of the path, the song has reached its crescendos, and the arms are well and truly outstretched. Have to say, I love it.  Glad no one can see me. !!

Anyone else obsessed with, or being haunted by a song at the moment ? , even a none NMA song ?

So funny you mentioned this. I've got about three at the moment.

Far Better Thing - I couldn't believe it when you referenced it too
Orange Tree Roads
Stranger

I'm on the bus for around 45 minutes to work and then 45 minutes from work and listen to my i-pod and whilst I will always listen to a selection of music on my journeys everyday now for about a week I've had to play those three on the way to and from work.

Strange how things like that happen. In a week or so it will be different songs.

Orange tree roads and southwest are in my permanent mental playlist. I tend to hum whatever song I'm playing in my head so people often stare.

 Right now  I have been playing The song from Pere Ubu Final Solution over and over. Now I love Peter Murphys version of it but I did not know he got that song from Pere Ubu who did it 1st. I had heard of the band but Never had listened to any of their music  All I can say is WOW ;D. Pere Ubu's version is RAW and damn Good  Pre Punk is I guess is the best way to describe it. It Has made me listen to More of Pere Ubu's catalog and I am impressed. 8)

Angry Planet. Now rooted deep into my head and will not come out. Think it would make a great Movie Song for a disaster Movie such as 2012 or Volcano.
