    Well, in short, this song is literally the voice of the soul. It's like a desperate attempt to cry out for all the wrongs one has lived in his life. So melancholic...

    Quite simply the best instrumental guitar song ever. Sure he might not be shredding at 3 million BPM or sweep picking up and down the fretboard, but as the title of the song suggests, there is serious soul in this music. Beautiful song!

    Well I am happy to see that we are still keeping Chuck's Soul alive and surely it’s still burning. This Instrumental is undoubtedly one of the best piece of guitar work you will ever come across, given the fact that there are many other instrumental artist who have produce some exquisite work. I wonder what Chuck was tripping on when he created this piece; but surely it’s a masterpiece, a work of sheer genius. For me it’s like “Warmth in the Wilderness”.

    This is one of the only instrumentals where I can proudly say, Music is the key to the soul.. This is just beautiful, pure beauty.. It is a soul of its own!! It gives me shivers sometimes!! Others a tear in my eyes.. This isn't an instrumental just to be listened to, but also felt with every sense in your body, although this is how music should be felt, but this.. Oh god.. This is a work of art.. Chuck.. Charles.. We all love you and your work!! And we always will!! May you RIP.. We all, still, can feel you..

    My Opinion

    Pure fuckin' ownage. A must for everyone who loves metal.

    This song is trully like a Soul: You can listen to it a gazillion times and you still will be amazed. You really can feel the song, as if you could almost touch it.

    You don't see songs like this anymore...

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
