Need some new music to fall in love with and don't know where to look (not rap)











some of these arent new, but you'd be surprised how many dont know them.

The new new shit I really couldnt catch on YT, if you're a spotify user i cld sned u some links. But what kinda music are you looking for anyway?

also I have like 8 more to post but stupid rules say only 10 per post. (now that I reread it, all of these over here are old, refer to the link below for some newer shit)

I'm not really into pop stuff like Maroon 5 and Lana Del Rey. Some of the others I've heard of but don't really know, so I'll give them a try :tup:

Can't say what I'm looking for cuz I don't really have a specific taste. Doesn't have to be old, but generally I think stuff from the 70s - 90s usually is the best, but I'm open to new stuff too.

Thanks again :tup:

Nomadi - Canzone per un'amica

though if you don't understand italian wouldn't mean too much for you :D

The long road ran straight,
the car was running fast
the sweet summer had just begun,
he was [sitting] next to her, smiling,
he was [sitting] next to her, smiling.

A hand gripped the steering wheel tightly,
the engine was singing loudly
you couldn't have known that Death
was waiting for you that day,
was waiting for you that day.

You couldn't have known that Death [was there]
when you're young it's strange
to think that fate
could come and lead you by the hand,
could come and lead you by the hand.

You couldn't have known, but how did you feel
when the road turned upside down
when the car went off the road
and landed on another one,
and landed on another one.

You couldn't have known, but what did you think
when the crash killed you
when even the sky above crumbled
when your life left you,
when your life left you.

Afterwards, silence only reigned
among twisted metal.
You were looking for life on the highway
but Death met you,
but Death met you.

I'd like to know what good was
living, loving, suffering
spending all your days
when you had to leave so soon,
when you had to leave so soon.

But I want to remember you as you used to be
to think you're still alive
I want to think you're still listening to me
and that you're still smiling, as you used to,
and that you're still smiling, as you used to.

What you looking for?
Thanks!

To answer your question, after listening to everyone's suggestions: probably something no so upbeat, and good instrumentals are the most important thing. If the vocals and lyrics are good, even better, but doesn't need to have words... if that narrows it down :p

Are these the Italian Backstreet Boys? :lol:

I love these guys... Dylan Baldi's voice can be a little abrasive for some, but he writes some great songs. Seeing them here in SF Monday night.

kind of, back in the days where boy bands where popular :D they did a lot between ending of 90' and first 2000
Their greatest hit songs are :

(You run) talking about a kids dreaming to be football stars. One managin to and the other who didn't.
coudn't find a translated lyrics if you're interested i could translate it.


It made a bit of scandal back in 2003 cause it is a song talking about a girl "Mary" abused by his father

Mary..she left,they saw her running in the darkness
of a railway station
The nights with police alarms in that suburban city
they say she feel nostalgic for us..Mary
Mary feels alone,Mary is cared,
I saw Mary crying asking an answer from the sky
And now her eyes don't lie,has the look of who hides from people
Her father's obscene abuses
Mary don't wanna talk and hide the pain in a paper of her diary
In her hands looking old pictures asking help in a prayer
On her wrists the signs of all those yeas closed in a jail
Her mom that knows everythings and stay silent
Now her face wears the signs of another failure
I saw her walk around the city with no direction
in her schoolbag memories that have durt her life
betrayed in one second by who gave her birth
on her body the signs of a father that for Mary is dead now
Mary is tired now,has no more tears and ask the destiny a smile
but its closed in a dream at night..
Mary..she left,they saw her running in the darkness
of a railway station
The nights with police alarms in that suburban city
they know she was escaping,it wasnt enough runnin,
they say she feel nostalgic for us..Mary
that walks on safe paths now
she is looking for honest smiles beyond the walls of this city,Mary
walking on safer paths on your diary writting
"that beast is not my father"
Now I get to think when you used to talk to me in ters
saying "i'll never change this life but I'm trying as hard as I can,I'm praying(hugging me)..you'llsee I'll come back"..
Hey look,theres Mary in the train station again,
she's holding two people's hands
her beautiful face change look now with no more drops of pain
she is kissing her man and the baby girl born from her first true love
with that smile that gives a meanning and everything left
protected by a horrible world that she discovered too soon
she has a hurt soul,a stolen inosense
Mary knows life isnt a fairytale but she turn into a fairy
walking slowly she seem happy,an eternal challenge is waiting
but she is not scared anymore
She was in another place when her father died,Mary stares his grave running impossible tears
People ask if its Mary in that street,she came back in a fresh day with dew,she grow up,she is tired to cry knowing how hard this life can be
she change it,Mary she is looking for honest smiles
beyond the walls of this city,Mary
walking on safer paths on your diary writting
"that beast is not my father"

Tito's last will
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me", often made me think
different folks who came from the east said that it was the same
They worshipped someone other than you and they did not hurt me
They worshipped someone other than you and they did not hurt me

Do Not take the name of the Lord in vain
With a knife stuck in my back I screamed His name in pain
but maybe he was tired, maybe he was too busy and He did not listen to my pain
but maybe he was tired, maybe too far away, really I named His name in vain

Honor your father and honor your mother and honor their beating stick
kiss the hand that broke your nose because you begged for a mouthful of food
when my father's heart stopped, I did not feel any pain
when my father's heart stopped, I did not feel any pain

Remember to observe the Sabbath, easy for us thieves
Breaking into temples, spewing psalms of slaves and their masters
without being tied to the altar, slaughtered like animals
without being tied to the altar, slaughtered like animals

The fifth says "you must not steal" and perhaps it's one I have observed
Stealing from the pockets of those that already had stolen from others
but I, a lawless thief, I stole in my name; they stole in God's name
but I, a lawless thief, I stole in my name; they stole in God's name

You shall not commit impure acts, do not disperse the seed
impregnate your woman each time you make love to her, and you'll be a man of faith
then the passion fades but the child remains and so many hunger kills
I may have confused pleasure and love, but I didn't create pain

The seventh said, "thou shalt not kill if you want to be worthy of heaven"
look at it today, this law of God, three time nailed to the cross
Look at the end of that Nazarene and a thief doesn't die any less
Look at the end of that Nazarene and a thief doesn't die any less

Do not bear false witness and help them to kill a man
They know Divine right by heart but they always forget forgiveness
I perjured the name of God and I perjured my honor but I feel no pain
I perjured the name of God and I perjured my honor but I feel no pain

Thou shalt not covet the property of others, don't desire their woman
tell that to the few, ask the lucky ones who have a woman and some wealth
In other men beds, still warm from their love I felt no pain
the envy of yesterday is not over yet, tonight I envy your life

But now that night comes and darkness takes the pain away from my eyes
and the sun sets beyond the dunes to rape other nights
I watch this man's dying, and Mother I feel pain
With compassion uncontaminated by hatred, mother I learned to love

:

Lol you liked the one I least expected (one of my favs), you carribean so assumed heard carribean vibes enough hehe, have several more like chill reggae Kranium song (yeah most of his other work is more raw dancehall dtf songs lol), but the rest (besides Khalid and Kaytranada, latter one of top favs) I wasnt sure what you were asking for so with the rest went with some of the general appeal mellow songs in my morning playlist.








This appripiate for saturday/sunday mornings lol
