For me it’s “We won’t be a alone” by Feint feat. Laura Brehm. I just have nostalgia attached to it and it brings back some nice summer memories.
This post is also for song recommendations since I listen to the same songs for years and I guess I wanna hear something new.
Edit: grammar mistake corrections
Self Destruct - kublai khan tx
yukikosan - midori (NSFW ALBUM COVER)
All songs that hit hard for different reasons… for me
deleted by creator
Kill 'em All era Metallica, or the MTV acoustic Alice in Chains.
Best ever chill metal song: Orion.
I love Layne’s voice! AIC was one of my favorite bands.
I used to do Renaissance Faires.
“Wild Mountain Thyme” was the song the entire cast sang together at the end of each day, my first year.
It hits me like a truck every time.

Not quite the same vibe as the rest here but this song makes me feel like I could walk through a cement wall and fist fight an army
Great on a rowing machine at the gym if you really want to set a PR
Witch by TotalDeadCenter hits similarly
“Hits hard” may be subjective and situational, but I guess it can be interpreted as emotionally touches you?
- Lissie - Pursuit of Happiness (Live at Brighton Great Escape 2010)
- The Cranberries - Zombie
- Baz Luhrmann - Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen
- The intro soundbit on Infinity Train
- The episode intros of Jobless Reincarnation (“Mushoku Tensei”) (song with video mix) - always with episode relevant content, showing the world, incredible world-building, with its amazing harmonic conclusion)

Ever since I have my own children Zombie by The Cranberries hits twice as hard.
Creating the list made me wonder what more I could list so I took a peek into my music collection. Maybe Neil Young, which reminds me of my deceased mother (I didn’t include it here). Or other genres that would fit too, given that I do listen to a lot of or more of other genres. I found more highlights:
- The This Will Destroy You songs I Believe in Your Victory, The World Is Our ___, Threads
- Hula Hooper - Reach
- Sylvan Esso - Die Young (Echo Mountain Sessions)
- Sylvan Esso - Coffee (NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert) (the first song)
- Juli - Dieses Leben
- Samy Deluxe - One Take Wonder 2 Meisterplan
- Banyan Tree - Feel The Sun Rise (until 2:09; transitions great into next song; a sunrise into wakeup beat; I have only the first on a mix CD in my car, and I always intuitively expect the followup but something different follows 😄)

Lay low. Tiesto.
Summer beach when I was young. Carefree. Good looking. Partying. Ahhhh the good ol days. 😀
The short mix “Silence” is awesome.
Zombie still hits me like a ton of bricks.
Whenever I hear Baby Shark, I get very emotional.
😭😭😭🥹🥹
The Sun, The Moon, The Star - Æther Realm
A ~20 minute metal masterpiece telling the story of someone leaving home in search of purpose and only upon leaving realizes the beauty of what he had before.
Melodically beautiful and I cry every time I hear it!
