"Under Pressure" by Queen

This is what skateboarding meant to me.

"Soil, Soil" by Tegan And Sarah

The full/recorded version of this song could be easily posted, but this excerpt of the live version of this song carries something along with it: She cries while playing this song; not an all out breakdown, but definitely noticeable. There's definitely some heart in her performance.

Fever Ray - Seven

I know it, I think I know it from a hymn.
They've said so, it doesn't need more explanation;
A box to open up with light and sound.
And if you don't,
You're on your own.

A Request and a Song

Here's Chris Carrabba Covering Regina Spektor:


Also, so whenever Dashboard plays "Remember to Breathe" live, they do a cool little extended version that more or less varies, but most videos include this cheesy story Chris tells. Apparently, however, he has in the past included singing from "The Moon is Down" by FSF and "I will play my game beneath the spinlight" by Brand New. I was wondering if anyone could help me find one of those. I've been searching youtube for a while.

Jandek - You Standing There

"How to describe the music of Jandek? Like most amateur rock critics, start by comparing him to the Beatles. Then strip away melody, catchy hooks, rhythm, and harmony. Next toss out vocal and instrumental ability, along with any trace of human feeling other than dull, lingering pain. Aside from these deficiencies, he's exactly like the Fab Four."

-http://wfmu.org/LCD/22/jandek.html

So this dude's performing at UCI's Crystal Cove Auditorium in the Student Center on January 8th. And I'm extremely curious.

His music is basically like the description above -- no tune, no melody, and devoid of all emotion except for abstract, atonal catastrophe.

Nobody knows about this man's history. He has only done one interview after making 60 albums since 1978.

His music goes against basically anything you'd want to hear in a song.
Which, oddly, allures me to listen to him even more.
