Many of you have heard in some TV ads or in movies THOSE nice pieces of art, but you might not know where it came from. So after Thinking a little I have come with this fantastic Idea: Making a list of the most famous song in ye world!

 

 

Keep the messages going on, so this thread don't dies, I am not very good at the reborning acts.

 

 

 

Why?

 

 

 

It would be good for some community members to know a little about the history or trivia of their favorite songs among with the original title to illegally download it in a Peer2Peer program that is not Kazaa because it is full of viruses, I meant, *ehem* to buy it legally in some online shop!

 

 

 

How I can colaborate?

 

 

 

By reading and hearing the songs, post the songs you know that might be famous and bump this post with your awesome commentaries of wisdom (Ok, I know there is a little lack of wisdom but at least use your brain more than ten second to post something with use and not just plain spam like "Lol nice" "I totally agree" * Yes* Yup* OK* Okay* Yep* Indeed* I agree* Totally* I knew that* Whoa* Happy Birthday!* lol*)

 

 

 

Please note that the links provided belong to Youtube, it is the most easiest way I have found to quickly search and hear music. If you're a moderator please donnot close this by saying "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONGS TO Trivial youtube links subforum" because the main porpouse is to bring these songs to the masses, not the videos.

 

 

 

Now to start

 

 

 

YE AWESOME AND FAMOUS SONGS OF ALL YE TIME:

 

(There is not some sort of order, vote to say what song must be in first place.)(Remember that I'll just post very very very famous songs).

 

 

 

 

 

"Oh fortuna" extract of the opera "Carmina Burana" Compossed by the german compossitor Carl Orff in the year 1937 during the Nazi regimen. This work is based about pagan themes. The lyrics were found in a Bavarian chapel supossedly writen by monks in the between the centuries X and XIII. Carl Orff had numerously problems in the post-war era because he affiliation to the nazi party. Very popular for terror related things, I sugguest of hearing the complete work opera.Trivia: Yep, many people are scared of this song.

"Chariot of fire" by Vangelis. A very famous song that Inspires valor, honor, victory and even cookies with milk! I'm sure you have heard it!

 

 

 

 

Toccata and fugue, work of the great composser Johann Sebastian Bach. This awesome piece of art for organ has his violinand piano versions too. I highly sugguest that you must hear it, and the video is awesome! Trivia: Some people is scared of this song because thinks it is related to vampires or the phamtom of Opera.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZKlxyoPNaFI

 

 

 

Eine Kleine Nachtmusik - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Just hear it, it's one of the most famous works of the great Mozart.

 

 

 

 

One of my favourites, The fragment from the Mozart's requiem, the dies irae or "day of wrath". An awesome piece of music that you must listen. Did you know that Mozart died misteriously by compossing his requiem and supossedly was poisoned by his rival Antonio Salieri?

 

 

 

 

When we are talking of famous songs this must be at least named. The Verdi's day of wrath, a magnific piece.

 

http://youtube.com/watch?v=cOybOtYT1-0

 

 

 

Totentanz (Dance of the death) - Franz Liszt. A famous song made by this great composser with a little obsession with the death. A great work.

Haendel's Messiah The Hallelujah is the most famous fragment of this fantastic work, a very used religious compossition, it's almost a clichÃÆÃâÃâé. Genereally, the songs of HaÃÆÃâÃâëndel are "stuffy, olde and regal".

The ride of the Walkyrie - Richard Wagner. Another great work of the Classical music. If you're wondering, a Walkyrie is a female rider, a warrior woman who works for Odin the father god in the Nordic Mithology, their work is taking the soul of the fallen courageous and strong warriors to the Valhalla (a kind of paradise) where these warriors will be in constant training and having fun activities as hearing music and drinking wine until the "Ragnarok" (end of the days) comes and the forces of the evil like the giants and Loki (an evil god) would fight against the gods like Thor and Odin to together destroy the world and, with hope, create a new one without evilness.

The flower duet - L̮̩̉̉o Delibes Awesome piece of opera, a must know song! One of the most beautiful duets ever compossed. The bad thing is that it ever remembers to a Nip Tuck episode when the doctors made an operation to two sister with the same brain...And then one died..And blood and brains...Well, enjoy!

 

 

 

 

Canon in D - Pachelbel I really love this piece, it's awesome. The great baroque era is present in this beautifull song used a lot for weddings.

Mate, fantastic thread! It probably belongs in the Music and Movies section here:Music and Movies, but I hope it's moved not locked, you've made a great effort, and those songs are definately iconic!

 

 

 

Would you want us to focus on a particular genre/time of music when contributing? Or do we have license to roam?

Moved to Music and Movies :)

 

 

 

Personally, I would have said the more famous songs were by artists like The Beatles, or other pop artists.

 

 

 

I actually had this discussion with a friend a while ago and we came up with the following:

 

 

 

Yellow Submarine - The Beatles

 

Dancing Queen - ABBA

 

White Christmas - Bing Crosby

 

Can't Buy Me Love - The Beatles (maybe)

Oh, thanks for the gratz. No, you all have the right to expand your minds as long it is famous and commemorable, but please, (yeah please), not something like rap or those things that are wrongly called music.

 

 

 

Anyways, I'm thinking on adding more songs later but I still need people that helps with it, I'm thinking on some Queen's songs that are a trully classic like we are the champions or Bohemian Rhapsody (Remembers me of the Noobian or newbian rhapsody of your compossition lol)

Would it be a cliche to say the Happy Birthday song? :P

Errr... Well, it is commemorable, gonna post it lol, just to bother someone.

Don't Cry For Me Argentina

 

Imagine by Lennon

 

Knocking On Heavens Door by Dylan

Added some songs more :)

Take your choice between 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'We are the Champions', 'Don't Stop Me Now', 'Radio Ga Ga', 'Another one bites the dust' and 'We will Rock you'.

Take your choice between 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'We are the Champions', 'Don't Stop Me Now', 'Radio Ga Ga', 'Another one bites the dust' and 'We will Rock you'.

 

 

 

A choice? This is hard to me, there is a very hard fight... We are the champions VS We will rock you.. Umm, I think I will take We will rock you.

Stairway to Heaven probably gets credit.

Despite your protestations against rap, I'd seriously ask you to consider

and here's why:

 

 

 

It's no coincedence that in 2007 Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five became the first hip-hop act ever to be inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their collaboration into making The Message had a great influence in many different ways. The first was the depiction of 1980s New York. The kind of lyrical protestation had not been seen since the days of Dylan and the anti-war artists of that day, and many critics commented of the accuracy of the song. 'The Message' was not only a political one, but an enchanting one. There is a dialogue shared full of as much drama and suspense as any piece of fiction. Finally, 'The Message' is one proclaming the arrival of hip-hop. It defined the genre of it, sending a 'Message' to the music world, with its harmonies and hard-hitting lyrics. The fact of the matter is, The Grandmaster openly shares his disgust at the turn rap has taken for a worse. The 10 year span of hip-hop he was a part of in his prime was short, but dynamic, having a profound effect on music that will last forever.

Umm, in resume, this song is great and important because reflects the New York of the 80's where not many people feeled like do musical protests and these guys did it and putted the hip-hop like a genre, right?

 

 

 

Well, altrought it importance might be something of memorance, I donnot think very much people have hard or it, and I said this with the danger of falling into the ignorancy, as I've said already, I'm not in rap or Hip-Hop, so I donnot care very much about it, but if it is a really song that moves mountains, I'll think again about posting it because we cannot let that our bind opinion occults the history. That's why I think is soo lame the fact that the swastika among with other "nazi" (well, they were just ripped off from other cultures/ideologies/religions) symbols are banned in Germany and other countries of the world. However, I have never heard of this song till the day of today and I didn't enjoyed it, so if some other community members thinks that it belongs to ye list, I'll, but keep in mind that the better this will be is to post things that are important or nice for the mayory of the people, if not, I'll flood it with Rock like My Chemical Romance and Vivaldi, talking about Antonio Vivaldi, I've forgot to put the four seasons and the Gloria in re menor, those songs are very famous indeed!

I'll just say one more thing: It is widely regarded as the greatest hip-hop track of all time ;)

God that song brings back memories. My cousin was obsessed with Grandmaster Flash when I was a little kid. Me and bro made the coolest dance to it... goood times

Fantastic Thread :) . I think the most famous one is The Beatle's songs since The Beatles were SO popular.

No Stairway To Heaven? :shock:

Dude, just add the song to the list? :?

 

 

 

Miles Davis - So What

 

 

 

I don't see why we aren't allowed to post rap music though? Seems to be a bit weird to make a topic about 'the worlds greatest' and just ignore an entire genre, because the creater of the topic doesn't like it.

Added some Vivaldi's works that you might find familiar and to end the disscussion added the grandmaster flash song :wall: :boohoo:
