I have been enjoying another thread "What is Your Army's Theme Song"
I happened across some interesting music I had not heard of, and some very main stream examples...
So, I thought that we need to share with one another some of the greatest songs you have ever heard/ no one has ever heard.
You know? That song that is awesome but no one you know of has really heard it, but you think everyone should hear!?!
So I would like to invite all of Dakka to share some of thier obscure musical favorites here in this thread.
*** RULES ***
1) You must provide a link to the music. I believe that we would all rather hear it... it is better enjoyed that way.
2) If the music is overly graphic/ heavy on profanity/ possibly NSFW, please indicate in your post.
3) Refrain from posting if it gets mainstream market radio play. (I am sure you like Metallica, but I am sure we have heard almost everyone of their songs.)
That being said, I look forward to hearing some of your favorite new/obscure music.
I will start it off with an awesome song...
Artist: Dead Can Dance
Song: The Ubiquitous Mr Lovegrove

It's an old celtic folksong about two ravens discussing going to eat the corpse of a knight who fell and was abandoned to die by his wife. It's quite a beautiful old tune.

Tyranids attract more tang than an astronaut convention. Success is a little more than I already have. Every day, Forever. Until you have nothing.
As Galactic ruler, I promise to be tough but fair. But tough.

Artist: mcchris Song: mcchris owns paper planes http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abKDx1DMUOQ&feature=related This guy can rap about Reeses Pieces and make it sound better than 90% of mainstream rap. Even if you hate rap or "Like all music except country and rap" you owe it to yourselves to at least listen to a few songs, because its like nothing else out there.
Whats that? You want something heavy? I've got some heavy. Artist: Tarot Song: Pyre of the Gods http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWMPVjCgQPI This guy has one of the best "Metal" voices I've heard.
No, dammit. I can still understand the music. And where are my Eurobeats and sexy killer nuns? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrsTTp2y0WM Ok, thats all I can take of that.

That's a new one for me. I just know that Mary go round has forever earned a playlist spot.

For all you cultured people out there. Try - Things to Come Suite, March by Arthur Bliss
start at 2:36
Here is the piece in isolation:
however in my opinion it was played at the wrong tempo.
Play this for an Imperial Guard army and watch them trample all before them with a horde of Leman Russ, supported by lasgun toting guardsmen under fluttering company standards.
Also now you hear where John Williams got his ideas from.
n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.
It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.

This one I consider a theme song. It's pretty much the epitome of pop-rock and I love the lyrics. Also probably NSFW. Dragonette - I Get Around
Spoiler:
Could only find live vids (the true sign of under appreciation). I love Letters to Cleo - again with the pop-rock, very 90s. Their vocalist was the one who did the singing voice of josie in the Josie and the Pussycats movie, fwiw.
Spoiler:
Worship me.
