Top 10 Songs That Create Vivid Images In Your Mind
Songs that wake up your imagination thanks to their lyrics, music, specific vocals, exotic or mystic tunes, unusual sounds, etc., or a combination of these elements.Instrumentals are OK, too.
This song helps me imagine Babylon thanks to the oriental tunes and Dio's lyrics:
"Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind
...
You can see in your mind
The gates of Babylon".
Music is so relevant that I can hear machine guns in the main riff and esp. at 3:55-4:30.
It's an instrumental piece so you can imagine whatever you want. My favorite instrumental of all time.
Mostly vocals and lyrics draw the picture in my mind but also the sad music in general.
Jon Oliva's extremely expressive and crazy vocals boost my imagination. I love this guy - so talented but so underrated.
El Cóndor Pasa - Spanish for "The Condor Passes".
The music of this song can take you to Peru.
It's actually a cover. Originally a song by the Peruvian composer Daniel Alomía Robles, written in 1913 and based on traditional Andean folk tunes. In 2004, Peru declared this song as part of the national cultural heritage.
This video is about 19 or 20 years old but I can still remember those creepy, wide eyes and wide smile of those women. Just so...*shivers*
A highly recommended acoustic ballad - retro tunes, impressive vox and beautiful lyrics create a mythical atmosphere:
"In my thoughts and in my dreams
They're always in my mind
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
And elves
Come close your eyes
You can see them too".
