My musical taste is varied, and I’ve way too many options, so narrowing this down to three songs was a challenge.
But, I’d probably go with:
Break My Soul by Hybrid
#1 Crush by Garbage*
Euclid by Sleep Token
*not the sweet version featured in Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo & Juliet, but the raw, dark version.
The final track (Euclid) was the first one to come to mind, and is a must! The others took more time… and there were so many others I wanted to include.
Malrik Raithmoor—The Liturgist, DAgerrald 📚 🐝, or Labyrinthia Mythweaver what would you select?
And, as a little insight into my musical past…
When I was younger, I was in a band named Choker. I wrote the lyrics, and drafted the melody with the guitarist. My poem Vodka Girl (in The Menagerie) was one of the songs I wrote. I was the singer, alongside another female vocalist.
I used to play piano, oboe, and every recorder from piccolo to bass. I was also in several different orchestras and choirs. I also have a family member who had a recording studio, which I recorded tracks in (most, I think, are likely lost now). He built his own equipment and synths, performing in a relatively successful ska-influenced band back in his day.
