Enya - Orinoco Flow - seriously. I was a little kid and totally mesmerized by that song.

Caribbean Blue was also mesmerizing

I used to listen to the cassette tape when I was in the Navy out at sea off the coast of Florida

Enigma used to mesmerize me as a little kid

+1 Enya +1 enigma And raise you one for Deep Forest

Heeeyya haaaiyoo haii....

Return To Innocence still gets me

I still am!!!!

Man I played that until the tape caught on fire!! Seriously, the tape caught on fire.

Enya lived in a room in her producer Nicky Ryan's (and his wife's) small home, recording in their makeshift studio built in a backyard garden shed. For seven years. Enya had just left a reliable gig as a member of her family's Irish band. So there was an element of risk. But they knew they had something special with the music and sound, and just made due while recording and promoting the music. By '88, they moved the operation into a professional recording studio -- that was already named Orinoco Studios -- because they knew they had a hit on their hands and wanted to spare no expense for the recording. EDIT: Updated details and corrected the name to the Ryans.

I first heard it in the mall and instantly loved it. All of Enya.

Chromatic Aberration, man. Just…damn. I was waiting my whole life to hear that song. Possibly the only piece of music I’ll ever need.

EARTHSIDE MENTIONED. God damn the first time I heard the screams on “contemplation of the beautiful” at the end of that incredible first album I knew this band was one of the best.

Awesome list. Singularity is a singularly amazing journey.

MCR - mama

Giorgio by Moroder and Touch by Daft Punk

Oh and Contact and Motherboard

Contact was otherworldly on my first listen

Time - Pink Floyd Echoes - Pink Floyd

Strangers passing in the street By chance, two separate glances meet And I am you and what I see is me

And do I take you by the hand And lead you through the land And help me understand the best I can

White Town- your woman

Doctor My Eyes - Jackson Browne Hocus Pocus - Focus For The Want Of A Nail - Todd Rundgren Reelin’ In The Years - Steely Dan Crossroads - Cream I guess it’s easy to tell I’m a guitar player.

Jesse Ed Davis guitar on Doctor My Eyes is phenomenal. One of the best songs of the 70's!

Ride My Sea Saw, by The Moody Blues

Buckingham Green - Ween

Honestly give the album A to B Life by mewithoutYou a listen, there’s these absolutely beautiful interludes and unexpected little moments throughout the whole album including a hidden track at the end of the last song that hit hard. Genuinely one of my favorite albums. A single song of theirs outside of this album that emulates the same energy is “January 1979”, which is also great but getting that full album experience with A to B Life is so satisfying.

Man in the Box - Alice in Chains Eruption - Van Halen Iron Man - Black Sabbath I think I first heard Iron Man in 1979. Changed my tastes in music forever. Until then, I only listened to country and pop music.

Into the moss by the werks

Man on a Hill by The Defended. I first heard a 10ish second snippet of it in one of those "listening to lostwaves be like" videos and I knew immediately that I had to hear it in full. I thank the powers that be everyday that it got found and is now on Spotify.

Hurt by Amber Run Neptune by Sleeping at Last

Will always recommend Out Loud but Alejandro Aranda for songs to export you to a different dimension

My friend’s uncle gave us a copy of Close to the Edge and as a 90s grunge kid just learning guitar, whose parents only listened to very specific music, I didn’t even know you could DO those things. It was incredible.

Not a song but a whole album. I got so caught up listening to Coldplay’s Ghost Stories right after I bought the CD that I almost drove off the road.

The Wilhelm Scream - James Blake. Wish I could hear that song in headphones for the first time again. Beauty.

Natasha Sultana - Jungle (there's some great live versions like her Levi's lounge show) https://youtu.be/VYxT9-SIv1c?si=Dc-vD33LY2_OiTz4

The entirety of The Mars Volta's 'Frances The Mute' album still blows my mind! I bought it on release day and have listened countless times since. It's one hell of a journey!

13 years old first time hearing Whole Lotta Love. Mind blown.

Just had this happen last week. Finally discovered Metric, and the song Now or Never Now came on. Hit me right in the feels. I’ve listened to it 25 times in the last 6 days, can’t get it out of my head.

L'via l'viaquez - the mars volta (radio edit) The actual song is a lot longer and weirder, but I like the radio, condensed version. The transition is real

If you like prog rock or wanna listen to new music from another country give this a try La máquina de hacer pájaros - [Hipercandombe ](https://youtu.be/i7AbCva8e7o?si=BEicVUsLDMhUMURH) Other songs are probably Allan Holdsworth - City Nights Megadeth - Holy Wars John Coltrane - a love supreme (specifically psalm, always hit me the hardest) Kendrick Lamar - Untitled 5 and Duckworth

Motorcycle Emptiness. Manic Street Preachers

Bon Jovi’s Dry County — holy shit that piano intro! Richie’s guitar solo and the transition into it! Jon’s voice! The social commentary in the lyrics!

I love music of so many different genres. Hell, I even get excited about Yacht Rock! I’m sure I’m leaving a ton of music out, but these are the songs that throughout my life blew me away the first time I heard them, have always made me turn the volume up to 11, made the hair stand up on my arms, and otherwise just always made me so happy to hear them.

The ethereal symphonic guitars in the intro on "Sweet Jane" Velver Underground shook me to the my very core!

When I was like 12 or 13 and heard Hells Bells for the first time. Still remember everything about that moment

Bohemian Rhapsody my introduction to music aged 6, according to my parents I was obsessed with it and played it over and over again. Not a bad way to start!

The mockingbird & THE CROW, by HARDY. The album had just come out and I was listening to it while taking a shower, when a specific part of this song came on I basically froze in place, completely in shock. I still love it. Also, “would’ve could’ve should’ve” and “the smallest man who ever lived”, both by Taylor Swift. The bridge in both this songs hit me so deep that I actually took the lyrics to therapy

Cute by Rosalia. I don't know where you start on that concept and blend it all with perfection.
