like instrumentals? or stuff where you mentally separate the music from the lyrics?

However you feel like interpreting it.

Should be easy enough - half the music on my harddrive is instrumentals. But I have no times right now. It won't be for another couple of weeks at least.

Sort of working on another compilation. I currently only have 3 songs that I would put in it, but for some reason I feel like I'll probably stumble across more songs with the same theme. No download link this time. Going to use youtube embeds because I don't actually have the songs to upload anywhere.

 

Title: Plight of the Construction Worker (Title not final)

 

I first caught wind of this theme while playing Bastion. Boy does that game have phenomenal sound. One song in particular stood out to many people.

 

Build that Wall (Zia's Theme) from Bastion Original Soundtrack by Darren Korb

 

 

The next two I heard on my favorite independent radio station. The first of which I think is probably filled with all sorts of religious imagery, because the band is very religious. What does that have to do with anything? I have no idea, because the best video on youtube I could find for it was a Firefly music video. I swear I heard it on the radio first, and don't spend every Tuesday afternoon watching videos about Firefly and reading Firefly fan fiction. Oh, and the song is damn catchy, too.

 

Build a Wall by Burlap to Cashmere

 

 

The last song I heard just a few days ago, and that's when I decided a compilation might be possible. This song is scathing. Scathing I say. Gave me some chills. And it's brilliant.

 

Why We Build The Wall by Anaïs Mitchell ft. Greg Brown

 

 

I've looked up a couple of others, and considered other "wall" theme songs, but I guess they haven't stuck with me because I went looking for them instead of discovering them organically. Though I'm open to suggestion if anybody has any other wall themed songs.

 

Oh, please thread revival, baby, yeah.

Bastion has such a great OST. And I quite liked Zia's song.
