The guy I used to date is the same way...one of the things I always loved about him. (We're still close, btw.)

In my humble opinion, a truly gorgeous piece of music!

This is from David Bowie's incredible album, Low, from 1977, and I think for him, it is a sad and remarkable work; but beautiful nonetheless. All instruments here are electronic except for vocals near the end of this piece. It was written after he went to a concentration camp and learned of the tortures that occured there after WWII. Brian Eno wrote the main theme after his 4 year old son kept repeating "C D E" over and over.

Okay. I must be an idiot...How does one post a youtube on this site? I have tried pressing the "Youtube" button, inserting the link, and I get code instead for each post I have tried entering. Could someone please tell me how to do this?

When the URL for the video appears, change "https" to "http"--otherwise, it doesn't work.

I had the same problem until someone explained this to me--something about secure vs. non-secure coding...or something.

This one always feels like "life" to me, and while there are some other songs that have more depressing number of lines, as a whole this one tends to move me the most.
