I like "Mad World" by Gary Jules, "American Pie" by Don McClean, and I also really like The Killers for some reason.

There are tons!! I'll stick with ones that have lyrics for now. Some cool ones off the top of my head include:
- "Sad Lisa" by Cat Stevens - "Here Comes The Sun" by The Beatles - "Easy Money" by King Crimson - "Welcome To The Machine" by Pink Floyd - "Woman of the World" by Michael Hedges - "No Self Control" by Peter Gabriel and so on and so forth.....

Explosions in the Sky - The Only Moment We Were Alone Porcupine Tree - The Sky Moves Sideways Phase 1 This Will Destroy You - Killed the Lord, Left for the New World Tangerine Dream - Stratosfear Amon Tobin - Nightlife Steve Roach - Reflections in Suspension Rush - Grand Designs Pink Floyd - A Pillow of Winds God is an Astronaut - Suicide by Star Saul Williams - List of Demands Tycho - Dictaphone's Lament Sum 41 - Angels with Dirty Faces (yeah, I know...) Asia - Don't Cry If These Trees Could Talk - Below the Sky Oceansize - Women Who Love Men Who Love Drugs ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead - How Near How Far Arcade Fire - No Cars Go Lunatic Soul - Asoulum Magic Pie - Full Circle Poetry The Tangent - Skipping the Distance Name any song by any of these artists, and chances are I love it. Those tracks are just to give you an idea, I guess. |

My favourite jazz band and my favourite track by them: Bj�rk, probably the first artist I was a fan of (I'm not sure, maybe it was Led Zeppelin). Anyway: Ulver - All the Love Fleet Foxes - Blue Ridge Mountains Portico Quartet - Dawn Patrol Antoine Dufour - A Hiding Place For the Moon +lots of Opeth mellow stuff, Led Zeppelin (Since I've been Loving You etc.) |

there are tons of them as I listen to a lot of 70s rock, progressive, hard rock , some 60s and even some pop.
Here are two bands I've recently discovered - the famous The Doobie Brothers which I gave a chance so late and the not so famous, unfortunately, German band Atlantis. |
