I'm in for 5.99 thank you very much

here's my list:
1. Lenny Kravitz - Live
This one brings back memories of when I was young and played a lot of great games like Eye of the beholder 1 or ODT and more and I had Lenny Kravitz's album 5 on the background. Still one of my most favourite albums from a brilliant musician.

2. Cooly's hot box - Take me home tonight
This one brings back memories of when I was on sort of an internship as a gallery custodian and librarian and whatnot, it was like two rooms altogether lol :D, and I usually started my workday with this song

3. Jamiroquai - Space Cowboy
When I first played System Shock 1, I had this often in the background, since I couldn't run the game with any sound :D. I also played GTA 1 for the first time with this song, again no gamesound but I still had loads of fun.

4. George Michael - Spinning the wheel
When my sister had her first job at another town's hospital, we often drove up there to visit her. The drive was long, I was little and I often got carsick. The music helped distract me from feeling sick and it introduced me to one of the most brilliant vocalists ever.

5. Rage against the machine - Bombtrack
Like a lot of other people, I discovered the band via Matrix soundtrack lol :D. However it became one of the bands that felt like my kind of jam on multiple levels that it was able to stay in my playlist after I ditched my "angry puberty struck teenager" musical taste :D.

6. Smashing Pumpkins - Everlasting gaze
I never listened to Smashing pumpkins much. I played the album, with this as its opening song, when I was on my way to the first university exam I ever took, a rather small and not very difficult one thoiugh. But since I passed the exam, I played the album everytime I went to a university exam. Until my mp3 player got kinda broken lol :D.

7. Tori Amos - Spark
Actually the story is the same as with the previous one, except this time it was the song I played right when I left the classroom and walked home :D. And also with the exception of "not listening very much" part. I listened to a lot of Tori Amos stuff before :D.

8. David Bowie - New angels of promise
Once again a videogame connection. Omikron: the nomad soul, for which this album was made and where this album appeared prior to it's regular CD release, introduced me to the works of a musical genius of 20th century (and 21st as well). And Hours... is probably still my most favourite David Bowie record to this day :D.

9. Depeche Mode - Shake the disease
This band is with me since early childhood, along with other synthpop stuff. A timeless music that probably helped shape me into what I am today. I'm not saying it made me into a good person, although I'm always trying to be a good person, but I think it had a good influence on me. But maybe it just made me wear black lol :D.

10. Gackt - Kalmia
I was into a lot of japanese music at one point and it taught me to go with the music even if I didn't fully understand what is it all about. And it also made me look for what various other countries produce since japanese music has some interesting specifics to it that pop up even when the artist tries to adjust to the latest global pop music trends.
And for this song in particular, it's from an album that is curiously multilayered and it's very different than whatever the artist, one of Japan's most successful and well known artists, ever produced. It's always very interesting to come back to it after some time and discover some new subtle thing about its patterns and melodies etc. So aside from bringing up memories, it's also great to listen to.


Well, I hope you find my list at least a little bit interesting. It's not a list of the best songs, it's a list of some songs that are close to me in some way.
