Powerful Music

Oh, I know! I thought it was a great idea to try, and about as well made as it can get.

Still, it brings up those visuals, and blerg. I just don't like the visual style of DBZ, nor the very idea of it.

That's no strike against the AMV though. At all.

OK, just checking. Well, I personally can't think of another anime that song would work well for. Probably because I'm not trying. I really liked it; I thought the idea was solid and the execution was superb. I don't really mind the DBZ art style personally.

Hmm... I couldn't think of any right off hand, at first. But after reading some of these, I can remember.

To reinforce what some have mentioned...

No Doubt - "Don't Speak"
BOC - "Don't Fear the Reaper"
Enigma - "Gravity of Love"
Demons and Wizards - "Fiddler on the Green"
Blind Guardian - "The Bard's Song"

And the ones I thought of... (forgive me if some are kind of cliché or overplayed)

REM - "Everybody Hurts"
Michael Nyman - "The Promise" (most moving instrumental piano song ever!)
Live - "Lightning Crashes"
Iced Earth - "Melancholy"
Pink Floyd - "Wish You Were Here"
Blackmore's Night - "No Second Chances"
BOC - "Astronomy" (Metallica's cover version)
Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman - "Time to Say Goodbye"

Well that's it, and I'm sure there's a few more that I can't remember right now. Ah well...

I'll second that. A very good band when I want to rock out at all sides.

I try and only listen to music that i feeling touches me, this might be different to other people but thats the beauty of taste.
Tool- Lateralus and Aenima
mainly but most af their recent stuff
Mercury- All is Dream and Hercules especially
but again all of their later stuff touches quite deeply

and a whole host of other stuff that i am too lazy to express

Pass The Courvasier-The original version, not the newer one, by Busta Rhymes and Puff Daddy. Puff actually pulls off the amazing feat of not sucking in this one!

Save Me-Remy Zero

Tell Me Why-Collective Soul (I'm not sure if this is the correct title)

I think I have a few more, but I'm not sure.

I like to daydream about my own characters during good songs, although they are pretty much all fight/confrontation scenes, kinda like an AMV, althought WAY better and much cooler. Not to say that AMVs are bad, just to say that my capacity for spatial reasoning and imaging allows for some really kickass "thought-movies" that are far superior to anything done so far by humans in reality. It gets pretty frustrating sometimes, I WANNA SHOW OTHERS WHAT I SEE!
