Favorite Music Video, why an its meaning to you.

I've been in YT an was listening to some music that really got me going an thinking in direct correlation to the "Ancient Civilization" thread.
Its titled, "Alive" by Empire of the Sun. Somthing about the video gives me somewhat a very different view of what life may have been a couple hundred thousand years ago. Yes I know thats not what the song is about, thats why I put out its meaning to you. I hope to see some great music videos, thanks an enjoy!!
Here is the link if the vid doesnt work.

This Vid is "The Funeral" by Band of Horses.
I love this remix and I do late night weekend surfs on ATS. Yes not only am I a poster, but a late night lurker, lol.

You have to fix your embeds, the videos don't show.

I'm an aspiring Hip-Hop artist, pretty typical of a lot of people these days, but I stick with it. Over the last few years a lot of artists have garnered success through the internet. You look at these artists and they're your regular people working diligently at the same thing you want, and through websites like Youtube we can follow them and get to know them on a personal level. Through songs and videos like the following you learn the struggles and the problems that come with the territory and career choice. An artist I've listened to for a few years tells his story, both verbally and visually. Some issues I see myself relate to, and some others that, God willing or God forbid, I might relate to.



Pretty good song in my opinion.

Wow, now thats old school!!! A blast from the past, that 80s girl was wow!!!

reply to post by MidnightSunshine


Me too.

Here is another classic from the good ole 80s!!
Stan Bush - "The Touch"

The song is Sax Rohmer #1 by The Mountain Goats, this video is probably one of the most creative I've ever seen. The lyrics are beautiful, how life can be crushing and amazing at the same time. And its so darn catchy!

One of the songs I have always ran to. This song describes my internal battle much better than my own words can put it sometimes.... Ozzy is an amazing artist and much of his music speaks to my soul.



He did two John Lennon remakes that I also LOVE because they make my soul spring forth in ways only Ozzy's voice can:



"How can I go forward when I don't know which way I am facing?"
This song is in my soul.

As well as this one:


"They hurt you at home and they hit you at school, they hate you if you are clever and they dispise a fool, till you are so f**king crazy you can't follow their rules"


It all gives me shivers right down to my soul!

Because of it's awesomeness randomness...and the fact that it is THE best song in the world.

HECK YEAH!


What's thiiiiiiiiiiiis?

Kudos

I figured I better come back and put this one out there too:


In my opinion, this is one of the GREATEST songs ever written.
There are few songs that tell it like it is, this is one of them.
