Chilling Music . . .

magikev

So we all have 'em . . . songs that we listen to and they stir up some emotion, and send that little chill right up the back up our spines. Although typically slow and melodic, these can range really all over the spectrum. So what are your top ten, in no specific order? Try not to say "Evenflow, because it's the first Pearl Jam song I ever heard and it makes me happy to hear" or any crap like that. Just think of the ten songs that speak directly to you the most. Here are mine . . .

Black - Pearl Jam
Sad - Pearl Jam
Lover You Should Have Come Over - Jeff Buckley
Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
Let it Be - The Beatles
Covered in Rain - John Mayer
Amsterdam - Coldplay
Brothers in Arms - Dire Straits
Wonderful Tonight - Eric Clapton
Sometimes You Can't Make it on Your Own - U2

It's an ever changing list, but these are the 10 as of now.

Heh, for me it could include about any song with a good guitar solo. For the slower ones or otherwise my list would go like this:

Black, Rearviewmirror, Given to Fly - Pearl Jam
Street Spirit(Fade Out) - Radiohead
Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
Lady So Devine - Shinedown

For the ultimate chillin out album, check out The In Sound From Way Out by the Beastie Boys. Its all instrumental, some from older albums and some unreleased. Either way, the entire thing flows so well and has an amazing groove.
