Music you can get lost in?

Who else love completely spacing out with a good album or song?

I love doing it :P

One of my favourite bands, Karnivool, does an excellent job at evoking imagery and emotion that I just get lost in every time.

This is a live set from a few years back after they released their second album: Sound awake

some of the best tracks are, Deadman, Themata, New day and Umbra.... And then there's Change(1/2) which is on a whole other level.

It's odd, but watching that gig pretty much changed my life :D Inspired a whole new direction with my guitar playing and singing.

So what gets you lost?

I usually listen to Three Days Grace. I love the One-X album. U know, I live with Three Days Grace's musics. my soul is bounded to those musics.

And all the times when I want to talk to others and I don't want to talk my self, I share them a music to listen. then Epica is a nice choice for those situations. for example when some one tried to make fun of me about my problem (being a TS) I share him "Crying for the moon" and every thing solved. ;)

I'm of a different era, but one of the best bands I knew of to get lost in their music was The Moody Blues. They were, and are, just awesome.

My favorite I get lost in is music from the likes of Enigma, Synthetic Substance, Y Traxx, Sirius & Nyla and the likes. At work, I listen to (very quietly at my desk) The Chillout Lounge internet radio station. If I am in the mood, sometimes Vocal Trance.

Im more of a metal head, fave band iron Maiden, through their music and lyrics i fealt i dunno safe in a very bad time of my life. kept me from going over the edge, and since then i listened to metal music most. however

I love getting lost in soundtracks, example "The Last Samurai" which compose dby Hans Zimmer, and Mass Effect 2 Soundtrack by Jack wall and Sam Hulick one is based on orientle sound and is slow and epic, though it delves in the thunderous crescendos towards the climax of the album, and the other is sci=fi done right, they mix i guess would be trance like, music with heavy bass and catchy melodies, with straight up heroic patriotic fanfares that remind you everything is okay and gives somthing to cheer for. and not to mention the peices of ME2' soundtrack where you delve deep into the unknown a track called Legion, in the game your inside a old space ship that is actually a synthetic life form with organic parts too. anyway the music is unknown, scary, and tense and once it has you on the edge of yourseat it slowly pours into your head with tunes that tickle your spine and raises your heart beat, then goes all on what i can only describe as the most epic amazing, peice of sci-fi horror ever portrayed in any soundtrack ive ever heard.

but yeah video game soundtracks or Movie soundtracks

Try the track "The Falls" by Ennio Morricone from the film, The MIssion.

I can listen to Enya for hours. On the other hand, I listen to Alice Cooper, Katy Perry, Queen, Pink, Jethro Tull, Owl City, Black Sabbath and a whole range of others that you wouldn't think would go together.

LOL - you are not kidding - I would have never linked that group of performers together - some I have never even heard of - so, wow - you sure do have quite a well-rounded range of musical tastes!

Fields of The Nephilim for me...esp their 'Elizium' album....can listen to it on a loop for hours on end. It came out in 1991, but is still as fresh as it was the day it came out....it was the first cd I uploaded to my iPod.

For me it's any of the Cetic female perfomers or bands likeLoreena Mckinnett, the Celtic Women or the band Clannad, there is something wonderfully conforting to me to here these hauntingly female voices backed by the sound of harps and pipes.

Just two words: Power. Metal. In general, anything from Iron Maiden to Sabaton, from Helloween to Stratovarius, or from Sonata Arctica to Kerion, anything will easily catch me.

But when it comes down to getting deeply immersed in the music from dawn to dusk then Symphonic metal kicks in. Bands like Rhapsody of Fire or Fairyland have some ability to get me lost into dreamlike majestic landscapes so wonderful that can only exist within the realms of imagination.

Here is a little example, hoping you get an idea:

The leaves are dancing under the wind

The songs of birds are filling my head

A taste of heaven, a magic play

The return of better days

(from Rebirth - Of Wars in Osyrhia (2003) by Fairyland)

Quite fitting for the moment, since spring has just begun ^^

Hugs,

Ethain

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."

      I have read some of it, mostly in areas specifically targeted at the LGBTQ+ peoples.   You also have to take into account what and who is behind the words, not just the words themselves. Together that creates context, right? Let's take some examples, under the Department of Health & Human Services section:   "Radical actors inside and outside government are promoting harmful identity politics that replaces biological sex with subjective notions of “gender identity” and bases a person’s worth on his or her race, sex, or other identities. This destructive dogma, under the guise of “equity,” threatens American’s fundamental liberties as well as the health and well-being of children and adults alike."   or   "Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under President Biden’s HHS are fraught with agenda items focusing on “LGBTQ+ equity,” subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families."   From a wording perspective, who doesn't want to protect the health and well-being of Americans or think that families aren't good for America? But let's take a look at the author, Roger Severino. He's well-quoted to be against LGBTQ+ anything, has standard christian nationalist views, supports conversion therapy, etc.   So when he uses words like "threatens the health and well-being of children and adults alike" it's not about actual health, it's about enforcing cis-gendered ideology because he (and the rest of the Heritage Foundation) believe LGBTQ+ people and communities are harmful. Or when he invokes the family through the lens of, let's just say dog whistles including the "penalization of marriage" (how and where?!), he idealizes families involving marriage of a "biological male to a biological female" and associates LGBTQ+ family equity as something unhealthy.   Who are the radical actors? Who is telling people to be trans, gay, or queer in general? No one. The idea that there can be any sort of equity between LGBTQ+ people and "normal" cis people is abhorrent to the author, so the loaded language of radical/destructive/guise/threaten are used. Families that he believes are "good" are stable/well-ordered/healthy, specifically married/nuclear ones.   Start looking into intersectionality of oppression of non-privileged groups and how that affects the concept of the family and you will understand that these platitudes are thinly veiled wrappers for christian nationalist ideology.   What's wrong with equity for queer families, to allow them full rights as parents, who are bringing up smart and able children? Or single mothers who are working three jobs to get food on plates?
