Like the title says - which bands/singers do you love (besides Michael)? And I mean musicians that really touch your soul and give you goosebumps.

Maybe you wanna share some, I am always looking for new music - for me, mainly (hard-)rock/punk, but I listen to nearly all kinds of genres when it feels right.

I'd like to start with sharing two of my favourite bands that are really amazing with a special sound, incredible voices and touching lyrics:

1. Idles

The lead singer's voice sounds just like a thunderstorm and I love their lyrics that often criticize society.




2. Nothing but Thieves

Love, love the kind of classical technique of singing, mixed with the heavy guitars:


And they also have breathtaking ballads:



I am looking forward to your posts, maybe we can find some gems 🤩.
 
Does mumble rap count? If so, I choose Playboi Carti. His music is hit or miss, but when it hits... it's deep. His fans are what makes his music so much better by producing beats with his voice on them. Also XXXTentacion and Juice WRLD.

On the normal side; Childish Gambino and Kendrick.

Would you like to share some links to songs you can recommend most? :)
 
Lianne La Havas, Jamiroquai, Queen, George Michael, Björk, Luther Vandross, Whitney Houston, Cassandra Wilson, Amy Winehouse, ...............................
Amy and Björk are great 👍

This one is one of my favs from Amy, her voice here is just stunning:


If you guys have some favourite songs of the mentioned artists, maybe some that are not as well-known, would be great if you post them. I'd love to discover some songs I don't know yet :).
 
Have to out this here, because this song drives me insane. Listening for two days straight now 😂.


Now I want to go to a classical concert again...I imagine THIS live on stage is just 🤯
