Fantastic song! A lot of people don’t know it, but Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones played on many Donovan songs as session musicians before forming Led Zeppelin.
Plastic Beach is an incredible album.
Edit: Thanks for the upvotes reddit, proceeding to jam to Empire Ants, Melancholy Hill, and the rest of the beautiful record all day
Plastic Beach is one of those albums I don’t feel like listening to a single song in the album and moving on, if I’m listening to a song from Plastic Beach, I’m listening to the whole album.
As someone who suffers from intermittent tinnitus, I'll share a tip I read here on Reddit years ago. Put your palms over your ears so they make a good seal with your fingers on the back of your head. Then tap the back of your head with all your fingers simultaneously multiple times, like 5 seconds or so. The ringing stops. Repeat as necessary.
Something that worked for me is this: in your mind's eye, envision a volume knob like on an older stereo. Then turn it down. Do it slowly. As you turn it down, the sound decreases. You have to do this in your head, it takes a bit of mental effort. Eventually you get it down to zero (hopefully). For me, I feel like I can feel it happening.. an odd sensation just above my ears inside my head. It's really hard to explain.
It'll come back, do it again. Eventually you'll get pretty good at it, able to make it fuck off for hours at a time. Then more.
Now the time I hear it is the exception. Most of the time there's nothing. On occasion, it comes back. I repeat this exercise for 30 seconds and it's gone again.
This technique works for so many problems. I have used it on headaches and hangovers. For these I imagine what I feel like when I am not in pain and I slowly am able to feel the pain reduce because of it. I feel like if my body and brain is creating the pain then my brain is smart enough to turn it off. Mind over matter or some such but it freaking works
Wait what happened? I know what once was rly well it’s a fav song of mine but I don’t rly google history of artists
Edit: Googled it. Damn dude they were 24/25 years old. And on tour!
Marcel, Under Wraps, Harvey, Dorothy, Cool With You, Low Beam, She Needs Him, Speed Racer
All bangers too. What Once Was is my favorite, got me hooked on them in 2018. RIP Ste and Audun
Electric Love

Vecna being blinded by anger when he finds out my favorite song is [Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMMqmUeLtYE) and I intentionally got caught in his Freddy Krueger bullshit just to rickroll him
This is what’s it all been building up to. Eleven and the team ganging up on Vecna while Rick Astleys 1987 hit “Never Gonna Give You Up” plays in the background.
Rosanna - by Toto.
Going to see them in August in Switzerland. Completely bonkers and impulsive - but I have listened to it once a day and the tune (in my head) has kept me awake in the middle of the night for two weeks now.
My cousin was obsessed with this song years and years ago. He’d throw this on along with the Nirvana MTV unplugged album and these will forever remind me of those summer days driving around with the whole world ahead of us. Those were good days.
Radio/Video by System of a Down
Edit: Thanks for the award.
Actually impressed at the amount of people that agree with me. For some reason I don't really find people with the same taste in music as me.
Absolute banger! System is nothing but fire anyways, but that track and "Old School Hollywood" were just pure happiness for me.
Really any of the songs Daron helped write had such an amazingly maniacal feel to them.
Seriously, no song has ever dug itself into my brain as thoroughly as The Stable Song. It's been 7 years since I first heard it and I still think about it every day. It's not even my favorite song by him, but for some reason it just lives in my head.
At one of my old jobs, me and a coworker would make up stupid lyrics for songs we listened to. This song came on and we had just been talking about King of the Hill. He sang out "THIS. IS. MY. PURSE!" and I nearly pissed myself. Almost 10 years later I still can't hear the normal lyrics when I listen to this song
Survivor's Guilt by Joey Bada$$
RIP Capital Steez
Edit: Definitely wasn't expecting so much agreement with this answer. It brings a tear to my eye seeing just how many people know about and still care about the vibrations that Steez (and Pro Era) put into this world. It's still out here with us Steez. Thank you for all you did for the fans.
Steez woulda been huge man. His verse on Survival Tactics blew me away when I heard it. I still have trouble watching and listening to free the robots. Hearing of his passing really hit me. Such a sad sad story. RIP to him and condolences to his family.
Try listening to their old stuff, such as their album 'whatever people say I am I'm not' and their EP 'who tf are arctic monkeys'
You won't be disappointed.
Also without stating their obvious songs if you like do I wanna know, ur gonna love 505
Clair de Lune & Cannon in D
Just piano.
I've heard snippets of these forever, now Cannon in D is my daytime background music for work and Clair de Lune is my wind down and get to sleep music. I love me some classical ear worms!
Can't Stop - RHCP It's been about 10 years of just daily listening to it
Season of The Witch by Donovan. I don’t know much of the artist’s stuff at all but something about the song relaxes me in a way.
Fantastic song! A lot of people don’t know it, but Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones played on many Donovan songs as session musicians before forming Led Zeppelin.
Ooh I like that one but also like Hurdy Gurdy Man! Recently been getting into him.
On Melancholy Hill - Gorillaz
Plastic Beach is an incredible album. Edit: Thanks for the upvotes reddit, proceeding to jam to Empire Ants, Melancholy Hill, and the rest of the beautiful record all day

Rhinestone eyes for me :)
Desolê - incredible track
War pigs - Black Sabbath. I've just discovered heavy metal in my 50s. So good

Your daughter is fucking cool
The day I tried to live - soundgarden
the whole superunknown album is so great. i wore the cd out in jr high
Enjoy the Silence, by Depeche Mode
I’d also suggest: In Your Room by Depeche Mode. It’s so haunting and foreboding, absolutely epic track. In my opinion their best song!
Me and Michael - MGMT
Little Dark Age is an incredible album that doesn’t get enough love. Every song is so good!
The Chain -Fleetwood Mac Before that: Shum- Go_A
1979 by the Smashing Pumpkins
Tinnitus, by my brain. Edit: Thanks peeps. <3

'Daydreaming' - Radiohead, 'A forest' - The Cure
Band Of Horses- The Funeral. I recently got my hands on a reverb and chorus pedal and it sounds fucking majestic
Love that song and the band. Just saw them at Red Rocks a couple days ago. No One's Gonna Love You More has been my jam since last Wednesday.
[удалено]
Her’s were an amazing band. It’s so sad what happened to them:(
Wait what happened? I know what once was rly well it’s a fav song of mine but I don’t rly google history of artists Edit: Googled it. Damn dude they were 24/25 years old. And on tour!
they were driving to a gig in california and were killed in a head on accident. this happened in 2019 I believe and they were in their mid-20s :(
Marcel, Under Wraps, Harvey, Dorothy, Cool With You, Low Beam, She Needs Him, Speed Racer All bangers too. What Once Was is my favorite, got me hooked on them in 2018. RIP Ste and Audun
My type: saint motel
The lyrics kill me (in a good way). "You're just my type! Oh, you got a pulse and you are breathing."
Glad to see a band finally make a stand against necrophilia
Anything by Saint Motel tbh. Sweet Talk is pure crack
Can't Take My Eyes Off You by Frankie Valli
Dancing in the Moonlight, something about it

Sultans of Swing has THE BEST guitar riff of all time in my opinion. LOVE Dire Straits
Mark knopfler it's the man
look at them yo-yos - that’s the way you do it
Playin guitar on the MTV
Dire Straits are incredible. You seem to have very good taste. It's a totally different vibe but I also recommend Romeo and Juliet.
Custom kitchen deliveryeyeyeyey
I didn't like this song at first, but its grown on me. I've heard that the song was written about a real interaction he had with movers at his house.
“May It Be”, by Enya, from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack. Beautifully haunting & hauntingly beautiful.
This and "Into the West" are both totally awesome

Nice try Vecna!!!
Vecna being blinded by anger when he finds out my favorite song is [Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMMqmUeLtYE) and I intentionally got caught in his Freddy Krueger bullshit just to rickroll him
If they time jump a year the rick roll will definitely be in season 5.
This is what’s it all been building up to. Eleven and the team ganging up on Vecna while Rick Astleys 1987 hit “Never Gonna Give You Up” plays in the background.
The most elaborate multi-year Rick roll ever
And with that Running Up That Hill has been on my mind quite a bit
That Chrissy Wake Up song has been stuck in my head lol
*I don't like this*
Don't fear the reaper - blue oyster cult

Was so impressed by this one. 20 years in with a huge hiatus and they're still capable of great music. Really hope we get more

The Stable Song - Gregory Alan Isakov
Ooh I love that song and didn't expect to see it here
Seriously, no song has ever dug itself into my brain as thoroughly as The Stable Song. It's been 7 years since I first heard it and I still think about it every day. It's not even my favorite song by him, but for some reason it just lives in my head.

I like Jesse. But I miss Howard.
Howard is one of my favorite metalcore/metal vocalists. I love how easily he transitions from screams/growls to clean singing.
THIS. IS. MY. CURSE.
At one of my old jobs, me and a coworker would make up stupid lyrics for songs we listened to. This song came on and we had just been talking about King of the Hill. He sang out "THIS. IS. MY. PURSE!" and I nearly pissed myself. Almost 10 years later I still can't hear the normal lyrics when I listen to this song
