Mythos, Purity: Icarus

Epiiiic. Mythos is some kind of band/composer (haven't researched them yet) and Purity is one of heir albums. Icarus came on Pandora the other day while I was working with my older bro, and let me just say, it was awesome. Still is. Let me know what you think.

Just ignore the weird slideshow and enjoy the music. :P

Charlotte Church: Habanera (fixed)

I had somehow posted this without the video. It's fixed now. :P

 

Charlotte church is very talented, and very pretty... not sure which of those is more important to me. ;) JK. She was 15 years ago, not so much today. :P

In any case, her version of Habanera from Carmen was the first version of Habanera that I've actually been able to enjoy, mainly because I HATE Habanera, because I've heard it in English and it grosses me out. But this version? It's AMAZING. The beat, combied with Charlotte Church's unmatched voice, makes it a pleasure to listen to.

Okay, so I might have lied... there is one other version of Habanera that I like. Though, heh heh, it doesn't really count...

Stargate: Apophis

Whoa. The Stargate SG-1 soundtracks are amazing. I can hear elements that remind me of the Halo, Sta Wars, Avatar, and even Lord of the Rings soundtracks. Which, coming from me, is a huge compliment.

At the very least, you need to listen to 3:50-5:50. It is THE BEST part.

I really like the may different themes you here in the Stargate soundtracks. You'll have militaristic themes with drums going; space-ey battle themes with lots of brass; theme that echo Egyptian, Celtic, or Norse culture... it's pretty awesome if you ask me. Give the Stargate soundtrack a try.

Shai Linne: Lord of Patience

Wow! This is one of the best songs I've heard in a while!
It's amazing to know that even though I fail constantly, God is still patient with me. I really needed this.

TSFH: Strength of a Thousand Men

This is one of those pieces that gave me chills the first time I heard it. One thing I really like about it is that the beginning suggests a rising evil, and the second half suggests that the evil has been defeated by good.
