- We Go Down Slowly Rising - Primal Scream
- Driver 8 - R.E.M.
- Waterfall - The Stone Roses
- Come Home - Placebo
The list goes on and on... These are just the sort of song that I like. Would you say there is a pattern in terms of how they sound (you can look up any that you haven't heard), and do they meet the "predictable" standard or the "suprise" standard? |
I'll check those out when I have time.
My earlier post was a bit of an over-simplification. Of course there are other factors whether someone likes a recording or not. Some people like songs with lots of heavy drumming and growling vocals and Satanic themes etc, and aren't too fussed about melody or the lack of it; others like gentle soothing sounds and don't care for much dynamic range; and so on. My earlier comment was really about TUNES rather than the manner in which they are delivered.
