May be hard to find, but I love this song:

Yes, it's from Breaking Dawn. Get over it.

So, really, I just need to find amazing instrumentals. Input would be welcomed. :)

yawn i fell asleep wheres the singin lol

I don't know if you like that particular song because of the attached sentiments, because it reminds you of the movie. Would you have liked it without it? Just wondering because I don’t know if other instrumentals, especially ones that accompany a movie, would be of your liking if you have not seen the movie. Anyway, I’ll give it a try. These are some instrumentals I like very much:

That's kind of a big field.

yeah...i guess looking back 2-3 years ago i didn't listen to any instrumental music other than songs like Life In Technicolor or whatever. but now i listen to more instrumental than stuff with singing, probably.

 

four tet changed my life okay

Same. I listen to a lot of jazz and classical, and don't really think of them as instrumentals.

Comments time :P

 

I'll listen to any instrumental even if I haven't seen the movie. I love that song with or without the story.

You all are amazing. My eyes popped out of my head at all the videos here. Thanks :)

Mark! Some great contributions too! I'd liked to have added them as well.

Good :) Yeah, I even make up stories or just imageries when listening to pieces and not knowing the story behind it. The song of the Piano movie I knew for example, but not the movie, but I found the song so beautiful that it even lost some of its glance when I found out it was with the movie ... :embarrassed:

 

My bf just found out that I have the books of the Twilight series and he went like "Seriously? SERIOUSLY?" hahaha, what could I do? The proof was there in my bookcase :embarrassed:

An instrumental to me is a lone musical piece on an album of songs. Does that make sense?

yeah, or a hip hop song without the rap (these are usually clearly marked with INSTRUMENTAL...)
