Hey, awesome thread! It sort of merges all those other "best song, best lyric, best blah blah" threads all together!!

Best Lyrics:we never change,a rush of blood to the head

Best Singing (not lyrics, just voice):the scientist maybe

Best feeling (wich song gives you that undescribable feeling?)politik(especially that special ending,especially live!)

I'm glad you like my idea :D

 

For you who don't hear the bass: Listen to a song and pick out every instrument piece by piece, first you hear the voice (easy) then the guitarmelody, then chords on maybe piano or guitar then the drums and whatevers left that is probably the bass ;) Listen to one of the songs that someone picked as the best bass 'cause most of them probably has a strong bass. I had a hard time hearing bass before but when I started playing bass at my musiclessons I learned to hear it. :)

It could be your sound equipment or how you have it set up- smaller or cheaper speakers usually don't have such great bass, and headphones can be terrible for hearing it.

 

Some stereos let you adjust the settings for bass and treble, and when you get headphones, you can make sure that they handle the lower tones- look at the frequency responce it will usually say something like 20-20,000Hz - the higher the big number the better the treble. The lower the little number the better the bass. For better bass get something that starts at about 10 or at the very least 15.

Awesome thread idea!! ;)

Thanks for the info Erin! Sadly I have a very good stereo system.. I think I just don't know what a bass really sounds like, exactly.. I'm sucha doof. :sick:
