Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Chien - Nina Simone, “Ne me quitte pas” Chien, Chien, Chien.. you joined us far too late in the game! Though you've only been with us a short while your selections have been very single-minded, and though I don't always like them, I can certainly say they are very good songs in general. I can defin...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Leestu - Nirvana, "Smells Like Teen Spirit" I love it clearly, it is in my own top 5, so I dunno what else I need to say :) Your list was very hit or miss with me, you provided some of my favorite finds of the countdown, but then other fell completely flat. Some of my favorites: 99 Jeff Buckley, Ha...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Buscemi - Derek and the Dominoes, "Layla" Well I listened to it twice in an attempt to pull out something positive, but as I mentioned last time around that this was posted, I cannot stand this song for really no quantifiable reason. Like has already been mentioned, I had a really hard time getting...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Ozzy - Linkin Park, "Numb" I definitely used to love this song when it first came out, it was a bit overplayed but still wins me over every time. The contrast between soft and hard vocals is great. I find the lyrics incredibly meaningful, but their writing is always very expressive and emotional. M...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Frendo - The Cure, “Friday I’m in Love” Very unexpected! Like others have noted, you joined us quite late, so its been VERY hard to get a feel for your tastes, they've literally been all over the place. This song is a very enjoyable one, though not my favorite song from them, a little too upbeat fo...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Transformers - Pantera, “Cemetery Gates” Wow the sound was not something I would at all associate with Pantera's sound, you've opened my eyes to their capability I think with the couple songs you've posted. A very worthy #1, definitely very you. Your list was the most "bipolar" if you will being pr...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Barca - Nine Inch Nails, “Everyday is Exactly the Same” I think your list has been the safest for me, it would be honestly easier to list the small handful of songs I either disliked or just didn't excite me, very nearly every selection was somewhere in my tastes. As a huge fan of industrial music,...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Ron - Radiohead, "Paranoid Android" I listened to this about 4 times before I could even formulate a response, definitely one of the great songs from Radiohead, I hear alot of this in many songs from other bands that came later. Admittedly this is one of their more violent sounding songs, they gene...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Yea, not too much surprise there I suppose. I tend to see things in very black and white terms, so when I am excited about something whether that be a film or music or whatever, I think it is the best thing in the world and want everyone to experience it thinking they too will naturally adore it as ...

Definitely dug it, and familiar with it obviously, though I think there ar...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

NSpan - Brazil Thankfully, I do not associate this song with the film in any way, because I absolutely hate the film. Actually this song absolutely brings to mind the score of Metoroporisu, which I think despite my glowing reccomendations, no one has watched yet. The song is quite nice, light and en...

Re: Fantaverse Top 100 Songs of All Time (THREAD #11): The #1s

Surfer - London Calling Well I really took the time to listen, and I think I've been un-enthused by this song in the past, under a scrutinizing ear though it really is an exceptional song. Excellent pick for a #1, very true to your style, no surprise here. Your list has been the most enigmatic to me...

Re: Top 5

The Machinist was cool--but I daresay it takes itself way too seriously for what it is. I loved it the first time through... then I rewatched it and realized that it's mostly just fluff and gimmickry. A severe case of style over substance. Don't get me wrong, I LIKE the movie... but it won't exactl...

Re: Top 5

I adored the Machinist (I believe it made my top 50 of all time) and haven't seen Harsh Times. I will have to check it out. What that guy said! I have to weigh in on christian bale because one of my favorite films of his has failed to be mentioned.... Christian Bale 1. The Machinist 2. American Psy...
