[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YWSzYMnf_4 — „Blixtar och dunder…“ (“Lightning and thunder…”) aka The Herreys performing “Diggiloo Diggiley” at Melodifestivalen before going on to secure Sweden a win in the 1984 Eurovision Song Contest with that tune.

[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7kyEptalJA — Karl Jenkins’ “Adiemus” performed by a school orchestra and choir.

[Dumbledork]

I've just been watching 'The Transformers: The Movie" once again, the 1986 one, not the Michael Bay crapfest and immediately remebered one of the main reasons why the movie rocks, the great soundtrack. 80s rock at its best.

Stan Bush - Dare

Stan Bush - The Touch

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04LmryRJMEY

[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a9rBGsZkL8 — Caramelldansen. On stage. With kigurumi masks. At UppCon in Uppsala. What is not to like?

Aaron Neville - Can't Stop My Heart From Loving You

VVVVVV Soundtrack - Potential for Anything

[Té Rowan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48YxyR-PSi8 — Radio 4 UK Theme. Sometimes I’d get up early enough to tune into this on 200kHz or wait until after “Sailing By” and the Shipping Forecast were past before going to sleep.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48YxyR-PSi8 — Re-Sepp-Ten. One of the most famous football songs ever. “We are red! We are white! We are Danish Dynamite!”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Sr5XHfBN0Q — »Hvad gør vi nu, lille du?« Gasolin was right (and rightly) popular in Denmark.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgbgUrp1a70 — “Toccata”. Yes, That Toccata, and Sky rocks seven bells out of it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oStyUDnZ7Cc — Mind, so does Vanessa Mae, except she blasts out the fugue as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4R0NWL0Ff_k — “Sirius” and “Eye In The Sky” with The Alan Parsons Project, of course.

[Spica75]

“Sirius” and “Eye In The Sky” with The Alan Parsons Project, of course.

Oh, not bad. Starts out sounding a bit like some Jarre tune i think?

“Toccata”. Yes, That Toccata, and Sky rocks seven bells out of it.

Very neat.

»Hvad gør vi nu, lille du?« Gasolin was right (and rightly) popular in Denmark.

Eldest brother had all their albums by the time i was born, so i totally grew up with them.


And you listed the first link twice and the second isnt there.

Other stuff of my brothers i liked:

SAGA - Humble Stance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHXkRoQNDZ4
How Long.

[Té Rowan]

Again? Sheesh!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_KVZwGSVpY — This should be Re-Sepp-Ten, then.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-eAhyMi54c — And, as a bonus, the Vanilla Beans’ take on it.

My inner tetsu-ota wants a say, too:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4FcBoKbNrw — Odakyu’s old corporate tune. Nice summer pop.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=il0J5EU3pFU — Where the ‘pipopipo’ in the tune above comes from…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXBBRd_1Khk — Another corporate tune, namely JR Kyushu’s “Romantic Railroads”.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEIb0cU47Xg — And then that of JR Freight: “Seasons”.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhwuLNwHjdA — »VLTJ« with Tørfisk. Folkish and fun.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yzo6Otpgj-E — Gordon Lightfoot’s “Canadian Railroad Trilogy”, the song that covered a three-volume work in a few verses, according to the work’s author. That’s what the Wikipedia said, so it must be true.

[Spica75]

— And, as a bonus, the Vanilla Beans’ take on it.

For some reason i´ve had this tune running a lot recently:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-V-xqf3LGs
Grendel - Timewave zero.


And i finally got around to installing HOMM3 on my new computer, just wish stupid MS didn´t make W7 be so fricking stupid about compatibility(or frickin stupid in general). Took forever to find out that marking to turn off desktop compositing and NOT anything else, worked perfectly while anything else just caused endless crashes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkx0lkVvgwg
All themes and tunes for the game. Some of them very good, even if they didn´t go to the lengths when they did the music for HOMM2, they actually hired a fullsize orchestra and a bunch of opera singers to do the music then.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSoPiffmSYU
Just town themes.

HOMM2 OST:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRcprUCjwDc
The sorceress town theme is neat.

And after getting it to work i find that HOMM3 is still an awesome game.
(anyone ever think of getting it, ignore the HD version, it´s total crap except for upgraded gfx, while the older HOMM3 complete(with both expansions, neither of which is in the HD version) can be had for just €10 on GOG, and there´s a fanmade HD mod for it)
