[QUOTE="Stereophile, post: 79203, member: 1344"] I was just listening to Tom Waits - The Fall of Troy (from the 'Dead man walking' soundtrack), and it struck me that the song is supposed to be horrible, it is meant to sound slightly off, and he sounds slightly drunk, but there is so much emotion and the lyrics are so tragic, that I can't help getting goosebumps and a little lump in my throat. My point is, some songs sound great, and are really good. Some songs sound terrible but are really good, while some sound great, but they suck. Every now and then I find myself listening to songs that I genuinely don't like, but the recording and production is really good. I've made a pledge to myself to stop doing this, because life is too short to listen to crap that doesn't make you feel anything. That is the reason I liked this thread, it's full of great songs that happen to sound great too. Win win. [/QUOTE]
