Thumbs up Your favorite song? ... Genre?

Well ... So many serious discussion going on here... Lets now see what's our favorite songs are!... No it doesn't have to be particularly a Baha'i song (it can be too ofcourse, but thats free of choice) ... But your own distinct favorite song?...

It can be romantic... it can be soothing?... Can be a music composition too! A prayer even ...

Well for me, I'll start with this one:

Hey there Delilah (New Version) - Plain White T's

this is my personal favorite



Translation:

Little by little, the group of the lovedrunk arrive

Little by little, the worshipers of wine arrive

They are on their way; Comforting and gentle

Like flowers from the flowerfield they arrive

Little by little, from this world of Being and non-Being

The non-existent leave and the existent arrive

They come with hands and clothes full of gold

For the poor and hungry they arrive

The gaunt, exhausted from the trials of Love

Strong and healthy they arrive

Like the rays of the Sun , the lives of the Pure

From those heights to the lowly valley they arrive

Green and fresh the garden for the pure

With new fruits from the love drunk they arrive

Their essence is grace and grace they unfold and expand

From the garden towards the garden they arrive

Little by little, the group of the love drunk arrive

Little by little, the worshipers of wine arrive

Different styles, some have absolutely nothing in common:

Rock:
IAMX (track Kiss & Swallow here)


Pink Floyd (track Comfortably Numb from "The Wall")


Classical:

Berlioz (here "Dies Irae" from the "Grande Messe des Morts")


Monteverdi (l'orfeo)



Industrial

Front Line Assembly (track "Downfall" from "Improvised Electronic Device")


Diorama (Child Of Entertainment)

You may recognize the producer if you've seen the movie "Snatch" or "The World Is Not Enough". He's the albino-looking Jamaican with the blond hair.
