    First time I heard Blouses Blue play in Cyberpunk, it caught me off guard. Fuego by Bomba Estereo was another video game banger. Born Free by MIA went pretty hard, back in the day. That riff in Pantera’s Cemetery Gates never ceases to get me fired up. Bobby Shmurda’s Hot N**** is up there with the best eats, ever, and got me the first time.

      Well it made me feel sad, so yeah that’s a great answer.

      Gonna try to play video games to avoid my emotions until I can sleep now, thanks.

    The Beatles - Now and Then

    It just came out Friday and the fact that it is being called the last Beatles song just hits me a lot harder than being called the new Beatles song. The Beatles have always been a part of my life.

    My mom raised me on the Beatles. One of my proudest moments as a son was taking her to see Paul McCartney in concert.

    I proposed to my wife by hiding her engagement ring in the Hard Days Night DVD case. We had watched it on our first date. Our wedding song was In My Life.

    We used to play Beatles songs as lullabies for both of our kids. When my son, who is autistic, was a toddler, playing Hey Jude would instantly calm him down.

    So even though I wasn’t ever expecting anything from them again, the fact this song from the band who is my favorite, my mom’s favorite, my wife’s favorite, and my kids favorite has been dubbed “the last Beatles song”, hit me harder than I imagined it could.

    The empty stage at the end of the video made me cry like I was watching a Pixar movie

    Can’t believe it took so long to actually listen to Staight outta Compton, but that has some interesting observations on race and law enforcement in America.

      Yeah never heard them before but my gf had a feeling I would like them!

      I have no idea if it’s what the singers had in mind but I feel so like pro union listening to it. So many corporations have proven a million times that the only reason they don’t kill more people is because of potential negative profits.

        I’ve given up trying to crack where the identity of the band is, I’m pretty sure we’d be inline, but some of the tracks make us pause the music and discuss if we’re being duped by killer licks.

        An excellent band with an excellent sound. I hope they make more albums!

    I recently got recommended Money Game 3 by Ren. I’ve never been more focused on a music video.

    Go. By Asia (English band).

    By coincidence the first time I ever listened to it was being hospitalized for suicidal thoughts, and the last song I listened to before being hospitalized (you don’t have your phone).

    As such it sort of felt like fate, like it was supposed to happen, especially considering the lyrics of the song and the context of being dragged to god knows where. The lyrics really struck deep.

    Lyrics if you don’t want to listen to it

    Dig for victory, go for gold I don’t want to die before I get old And I wonder where I’m going to There’s some way out, there’s some way through But I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m down again My direction is changing, which way, Which way can I go…

    Cobra by uhh…Megan Thee Stallion. My boyfriend recommended it and although the content isn’t my thing (sex-neutral ace here) I cannot deny that it does indeed Go Hard.
