Your most unusual song/tune

 

  • Your most unusual song/tune

    Do you have a song or tune that you have a particular fondness for, which doesn't fit in with the rest of your music, or maybe most people's idea of fun music to listen to?

    I've been listening to
    Abide With Me a lot this week. It's a beautiful funeral hymn, arranged for brass band.

    I think that with all my metal and punk music, you'd be quite suprised to see George Thorogood in my list, but i like those songs, and besides Bad To The Bone is one wicked song

  • I've got a bunch of orchestral pieces that you may not think fit - Offenbach's Can-Can, Grieg's Hall of the Mountain King, Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody 2, and a few others.

  • I don't know if it doesn't fit with the rest of my songs, but I really like Devil's Dance Floor by Floggin' Molly.

  • Nothing fits in with the rest of my music.

    I've got over 1,000 songs and need over 100 playlist to organise them!

    I don't know what I'd do without iTunes' Smart Playlists.

  • I have a track of Elliot Smith talking about his love for Xena... but that's spoken word so maybe it doesn't count.

    Then Corpus Christi Carol by Jeff Buckley, I have nothing else like it.
