Top 10 Most Dramatic Songs
We all know the definition of dramatic, so here are the top 10 songs that would go with a milestone in a drama movie, the top 10 dramatic songs. (Song - Artist)
I just like it! It catches my attention quickly, is very touching and, frankly speaking, it gives more passion and eventually more feelings with the tone of the voice and the way it was written. Thank you!
It's tough to analyze these lyrics, but it doesn't make the bare words any less dramatic and depressing. The musical content is also something obviously written and performed with loads of passion and feeling.
I have listened to this song for years, and I love it!
Dramatic, dark, and haunting song from "Game Of Thrones." Released as a downloadable single in June of 2014, and scheduled for her album "Awakening" in September 2014.
This young lady just keeps pushing the bar up...
Along with being dramatic, the song is just so sad, and should be on all these people's "Top 10 Saddest Songs" lists. I mean, not only does it sound sad, but its lyrics are just tear-jerking. This song is about a man whose love dies, and when he looks into her diary after her death, he realizes she never even thought of him. This was supposed to be his girlfriend, and she was going behind his back and never wrote a thing about him. Double-heartbreak right there, automatic spot on this list.
This song comes from a wonderful series, Clannad. The show is a great example of what family should mean, accepting the lives you have, whether they are happy or sad. The English translation talks about a large dumpling family forming a ring and rounding up their happy and sad times. It really gives off this important meaning with a cheerful and somewhat child-like tone.
If you were to make sense of the English translation of this song, it would simply be about happiness. This song just goes so well with the show it's from, Clannad, giving us the feeling of taking life as it comes, and being happy with it. That's just what the show is about, life, and if you haven't seen it, watch the whole series, it's brilliantly amazing, and this song reflects that.
Only Rise Against can make the most overdone song topic, a breakup, still sound heartbreaking. The dramatic effect is best in the acoustic version of this song because of the lead singer's real raw emotion.
Absolutely amazing. I can't get enough of Imogen.
Title theme from "House of Flying Daggers." See the YouTube video of her PBS Great Performances "Dream With Me - In Concert." Just search for Evancho Lovers.
Jackie performs this at every concert, and it is always astonishingly jaw-dropping.
A break-up song not quite as good or dramatic in lyrics as a certain other break-up song on this list, but it sure is very dramatic in musical quality.
Easy to relate to. Breaking Benjamin have taken an overdone topic and done it in a completely different way - unique, genius.
As a song about time going by, this is a VERY dramatic song. No instrumental, just layered vocals. The second verse gives me goosebumps.
The Newcomers
So dramatic, yet so sad. Amazing song.
Come on, kids, look past the last 10 years. In 1971, these four men from Britain turned "nothing" into a 23-minute epic that bottles up every emotion imaginable - loss, love, heartbreak, loneliness, existentialism, you name it - thanks to Waters's lyrics and Gilmour's guitars.
Twenty-three minutes go by way too fast when listening to this song (if you want to call it that; "experience" seems to fit better).
You want drama? Jump back to Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody) or Led Zeppelin (Stairway to Heaven). You want the most dramatic song ever? Echoes. Musical mastery and palpable emotion in a package that belies its release date.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time!
Just, the chorus is an anthem. An anthem of inspiring, upbeat drama.
This song makes me happy every time I listen to it.
"Dream On" by Aerosmith is a most extreme case of dramatic music. It will be played forever. This music actually falls into several popular categories and will be timeless.
Pre-chorus, chorus, bridge, man. Drama recipe for this song.
This used to be my favorite song. Especially because I showed it to my grandma, and she loved it.
Hehe, can't say I am not surprised this song made it here. Well then again, yeah, it was kinda dramatic.
This duet was performed live at the "Awakening" concert held at Longwood Gardens near Philadelphia. Available on DVD.
Do you know that feeling after listening to something that's incredibly magnificent and dramatic? This is Who Wants to Live Forever.
Love Queen and Freddie. Sad song makes you think. The music world will miss you, Freddie. Queen rocks. Hope all you agree. I do. Vote this up.
Personally, you don't have to understand the Japanese language here. You just have to feel the music within. And trust me when I tell you that it is heartbreaking.
The music of this song alone tells a dramatic and desperate story. It begins with beautiful acoustic chords and ends in a panic of chaotic riffs. The lyrics are few and simple, offering reflection that adds to the instrumentals' temperament.
"Yesterday seems as though it never existed. Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye." Perhaps I would not recommend it to everyone, but rather to those who appreciate the art and philosophy that classic heavy metal music provides.
Also, if you enjoyed this song, it is worthwhile to investigate when and why Metallica wrote it - I trust it will bring a smile to your face.
The chorus is the definition of dramatic.
The song's lyrics are so dramatic but so touching. And the music video is like so over the top.
