Song advice #35

Hello everybody!

It's time for a new  

post!

  Sorry for the absence, but I had been a bit busy on these days. If I manage to, my next post will be about an exhibition, so stay tuned if you're interested ;)

  Anyway, you are here to listen to a song you (maybe) don't know: after Lady Gaga, we return to Rock music, in particular today's song is a Rock cover of a famous Hip Hop song you surely have already listened to at least once in your life. I leave you a hint:

<<Tell me why are we so blind to see

That the ones we hurt are you and me>>

The song is...

GANGSTER'S PARADISE by Like A Storm

Enjoy!

Hello everybody!

It's time for a new

And today is the day of a Pop song (even the video is more like a film)! I've got the first album of this amazing artist and  I keep on listen to her music; also, she is an inspiring example for a lot of people! Are you a "little monster"?

The song is...

MARRY THE NIGHT by Lady Gaga

I love this band so I choose a song from the tons of other songs I like! I hope you like it too! 

«Fear and panic in the air

I want to be free

From desolation and despair

And I feel like everything I saw
Is being swept away
When I refuse to let you go»

The song is...

The vocal part of this song is pure magic, whispered and kind of low: the contrast with the instruments - electric guitars and synth - makes it even stronger.

The song is...

GET OUT by STAL

Enjoy!

Song advice #30

Hello everybody!

What stroke me about this song when I first listened to it was the synth part just at the beginning and how it was perfectly combined with the singer's voice (which reminded me of bands like Pierce The Veil and Sleeping With Sirens).

The song is...

CALM SNOW by I See Stars

(here the link for the video)

Enjoy!

Song advice #28

Hello everybody!

It's time for a new  

post!

As my sister requested, I've chosen this song for my new post: a powerful song by a powerful band, which can psych you up in a gloomy day (if you can, listen to the whole album): "never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage".

The song is...

DON'T THREAD ON ME by Metallica

(here the link for the video)

---------------------------------------

Enjoy!

When I listen to this song I thought it was a 80s song and instead the album was released in 2016. I don't know why, but they remind me of Mötley Crüe somehow. Do you agree?

The song is...

FALL AWAKE by Catalano

This band has a sad story: in fact I get to know that the singer has lost his voice (if you look for their live concerts on YouTube you can notice it) and I think it's a pity, because I really like their music.

The song is...

IT'S FAR BETTER TO LEARN by Saosin

If you like Alternative Rock you may also like this song: I think the voice of the singer is unusual, as the music video is too.

The song is...

AFRAID OF HEIGHTS by Billy Talent

This song starts with a very intense instrumental part and then it calms down, with the first words "this side of fate is blind". And then the lyrics and the instruments together, as intense as the start. 

The song is...

THIS SIDE OF FATE by Alter Bridge

(here the link for the video)

The video of this song was published on YouTube six years ago, but I love this song even now, because a lot of memories came in my mind when I listen to it.

<<Into your lies,
hopeless and taken.
We stole our new lives,
through blood and pain,
in defense of our dreams.
In defense of our dreams.>>

The song is...

KINGS AND QUEENS by 30 Seconds To Mars

I asked one of my friends if he had a song for my blog and this is the one he has chosen. He said to me this song is one of his favourite's, because it gives him strength, thank to the intense lyrics about self-awareness and about being the master of your own destiny.

The song is...

END OF THE BEGINNING by Black Sabbath

Today's song doesn't need any kind of introduction. It is basically the history of music.

I think this band isn't very famous, but when I listen to this song I thought that it was very good, especially the skill of the female singer. She reminds me of Amy Lee (in a matter of vocal range): what to you think?

The song is...

PARANOIA by Fifth Dawn

The lyrics of this song is not so various but what's enchanting are the pretty long instrumental part led by the distorted sound of the electric guitar and the role of the cymbals in the melody. The result is an anguished Alternative Rock song.

The song is...

WHEN GOD COMES BACK by All Them Witches

Song advice #18

Hello everybody!

It's time for a new  

post!

Some days ago, in one of my previous posts, my advice was about a Pop song. Well, also today's one is about a Pop song, in particular I have to admit I have never liked this singer, because I prefer a different type of voice, which fits better with my music taste. Anyway, I like this song, especially the instrumental part and the lyrics. 

The song is...

SIGN OF THE TIMES by Harry Styles

Hello everybody!

post!

I got to know this song from a smartphone game called "Robot Unicorn Attack 2". The genre of this song is Folk Rock/Metal, a bond between Metal and Opera in this case. The result is something epic. The band is also famous for his album based on the J. R. R. Tolkien's "The Silmarillion" called "Nightfall in Middle-Earth".

The song is...

BATTLEFIELD by Blind Guardian

Hello everybody!

Thanks to the TV Series Bones I got to know this song: the band is really famous and I'm sure you have already heard his name at least once in a lifetime. I think it's a song closer to Rock music than Metal, what to you think?

The song is...

DR. FEELGOOD by Mötley Crüe
