Epic Song Thread
« on: March 20, 2010, 11:27:11 pm »
Hi guys,

Know any epic songs?
Songs that when you hear, sends shivers of awesome through your spine? Songs that make you want to yell/scream/sing-along? Want to listen to some music that other people think sound awesome?

Well then here's your opportunity:
Post links here!

Also, try to add a basic description and your thoughts on the song. Just a simple sentence will do.

---------------------------------------

I'll start.

Here's one by Muse that is awesome: Muse - Shrinking Universe

A great sing along song which may or may not be telling you to mow the lawn: The All American Rejects - Move Along

And, of course, the best parody song in existence [Swearing and Assjokes involved] - Angry Video Game Nerd - Spiderman Theme Song

These threads seem to die after a few days.

Live in the moment, I say.

HOLY "Hey there Cthulhu" is awesome.

Okay what the fuck is that?

Pardon my french, but he sounds like one of those extremely annoying dime-a-dozen teenagers dressed up on every single show on TV nowadays with a laugh track whining about something I can't even understand because he's 'too cool' to pronounce his words.

(I only listened to the first 10 seconds, does it get better?  :P)

Ah, and thanks for posting this thread too. I love songs like these. : D

These two are most epic and random.
They are the final boss battle tracks from Sonic Adventure 1 & 2.

Open Your Heart
Live and Learn

I think the second one is more epic.

This is the most epic song this week:
Blue Gender Opening (Break Free)

And finally, this is definitely appropriate:

Gah, I'll have to start a thread on this or something, because typing "Whiny dipshit teenager" didn't get any hits.

Also, it seems that you can put "Requiem For A Dream" as background music for ANYTHING and it will still look awesome!  ;D

Pish.  Any excuse to link to a Project Chaos track.

If I gave a crap, I'd rattle off some Dio or Iron Maiden songs, but eh.
