By way of explanation why , this recent track (and a most welcome return to form ) sees Van duetting with Bill Medley from the Righteous Brothers.)
Rammstein have put a new video out. Possibly not everyone’s thing but the credits at the end of the video are insane. I’ve seen less credits on a Hollywood blockbuster.
first there was Stairway to Heaven - 1971
Then, there was November Rain - 1992
are there more rock songs of a similar style? it’s pissing rain here today (normal for season) and it reminded me of this song. 12months ago, we had a MASSIVE flood here that cut off the city from rest of Canada for 3-4 weeks.
Do you mean slow building songs with a big guitar solo at the end?
Freebird and Hotel California spring immediately to mind.
more of that Rock opera feel. Longer songs, big crescendo, bit of a storyline to the lyrics. usually sombre in mood. I dunno, a vibe for lack of a better term?
Possibly some of the stuff on Metallica’s Black Album. Nothing Else Matters for example?
Long, crescendo, storyline? You called for the Boss and the Big Man…
Somebody to Love?
The nights are drawing in and frosty mornings , so here’s a little something to warm the cockles of your heart.
Your post reminded me of this version of the Joni Mitchell song.
Just beautiful.
just had a flashback of Denis Leary…
lol … I’d never seen that before.
Any chance that @cynicaloldgit could be tempted to run a Greatest Christmas Song?
If not does anyone else fancy launching it?
I would do it myself, but I have the techno skills of a dead donkey and would not know where to start.
No, because they’re all wank.
Except for the Fairytale of New York, obviously.
And this one ;
