Assemblage 23 - "Disappoint"

- more painful lyrics there were never; I've never experienced suicide (friends or family), but this song never ceases to convey the sadness, frustration and guilt that must be associated from surviving a loved one

Apoptygma Berzerk - "Moment Of Tranquility"

- haunting lyrics, very poignant to my life (and the Twin Peaks riff doesn't hurt either)

Bjork - "Hyperballad" and "Joga"

- goosebumps galore - especially when watching the videos for either

Depeche Mode - "Waiting For The Night"

- my favourite song ever. Stops me in my tracks and sends shivers up and down the spine

Strange how songs can have such an impact.

One of my favorite albums. Every song on it is great, too bad she doesn't get the exposure she deserves...

(Sorry for the hijack)

Agreed. I first heard of her on NPR when they played a plugged version of "Living With Ghosts." I bought the album, but it was unplugged. I've heard the other version one other time, here in Nashville.

Bruce Springsteen's acoustic version of Thunder Road

Tom Waits - A Little Rain & Ruby's Arms

Those songs never fail to get to me.

man - thanks for reminding me of 'ruby's arms' - this one gives me chills as well as 'on the nickle' from the same album - is this the acoustic thunder road where 'mary' is changed to 'christine' and alternate lyrics:

'i've tried hard chrissy to understand
i'm a rider out tonight to case the promised land
baby when you're born with nothing in your hands
sometimes it's your only chance'

because i enjoy this version better then the original - also the live piano version on the box set is amazing

I was thinking of the version on the box set - I don't know if I have heard the other; - powerful song though
