Is there a particular song that brings you to tears even though its not sad? Is there an artist with the power to make you scream, dance, jump, cry, ***, laugh? Lyrics that make you remember how good it is be to be alive, or remind you to call your loved ones and tell them how you feel? Make you so angry you shout the refrain in the car as you drive or in the shower like a madperson until you're hoarse?
Comments with your answer encouraged.
ON A PERSONAL NOTE:
Rufus Wainright's version of Cohen's 'Hallelujah', Flaming Lips' 'Do You Realize?' and Iron and Wine's 'Upwards Over the Mountain' seem to have a power over me that I can't reign in.... Tears regardless of whose presence I'm in or what mood I'm in.
Modest Mouse's 'Float On', Beck's 'Girl', and Hot Chip's entire album 'The Warning' all make me implicitly happy regardless of my state at the time.
Lastly, for raw power and intelligence unsurpassed, Iron and Wine, The Shins, and Jose Gonzales all deserve a Nobel....
