Starting a new thread of random songs I like - across genres. What better way to begin than with 'Comfortably Numb' - a perennial Pink Floyd favourite? The video's from the movie The Wall, with Bob Geldof as Pink Best guitar solo ever? Gilmour at his best https://t.co/1bPzmBqxXl

Harmony Korine - Steven Wilson Among SW's most stunningly beautiful pieces. Powerful sound set to a distinct Wilson vocal. It's dark and, understandably, a concert staple. The video is homage to the American film-maker Harmony Kline and his abstract films https://t.co/YDm1wEcrpc

Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind We marvel after those who sought Wonders in the world Wonders in the world Wonders in the world World... This song had balls!

Luminol-Steven Wilson While I far prefer SW's Porcupine Tree work to his solo efforts, got to say The Raven That Refused To Sing is a superb piece of prog. Very derived from King Crimson, of course, and kinda Dad Rock, but the bassline and drums are killer https://t.co/4MtcevvQUt

Guinnevere - CSN Crosby, Stills and Nash were a match made in heaven, and their eponymous debut album was a treasure trove of simply superb harmonies. And, of these, Guinnevere was the most beautiful and truly timeless. Truly, a classic https://t.co/zxtkfCvReP

The Daybreak - Young Flowers Superb example of the heavy blues of the late 60s. Very obviously influenced by Cream and Jimi Hendrix, the rhythm is really catchy, and is complemented by a long, fantastic lead. Sonic blisssss... https://t.co/98bqsKnbFf

Fade to Black - Metallica Starts off as the mother of all power ballads - bar none - and then transforms into a solid metal masterpiece mid-way through. So, a 'Thrash Ballad'! A dark depressing classic that still sounds as good as it did 41 years ago. https://t.co/yUZ4vz9MjU

I Want You To Know - Young Flowers Superb Psych rock from this late 60s Danish band. That lead guitar is to be heard to be believed! https://t.co/Q45zJ0KnvQ

One of the most, if not *the* most, talented and beautiful actresses Bollywood has produced. What a tragedy to have lost her so young...
“There are people who can speak with their eyes and Smita Patil was one of them. She would look at a person and convey everything” Smita Patil would’ve turned 70 today

The lady protests too much… so much that she blocks replies 😀 I’d say that the Pakistani PM’s propensity to showcase his bootlicking, first of his Army Chief’s and now of Trump’s (next Netanyahu?), has his citizens deeply embarrassed and shamefaced Thereby, this “brave face”😅
Thank you @narendramodi for literally putting the Pakistani flag dead center of global geopolitics

This self promoted Field Marshal was earlier disciplined for ‘visible cowardice under fire’ when still serving the British Army in WW II
The Pakistan Army wasn’t created to protect a Muslim nation. It was designed to supress its people, especially Pashtuns. Its founding father Ayub Khan, was a man who cut his teeth oppressing Pashtun tribes on behalf of the British Empire. 🧵 1/12

Reanimation - Sacrifice Potent - old school - Canadian thrash from 1987. Some serious riffing in here... https://t.co/6Y9ewggNrt

Serpent on the Cross-Paradise Lost Superb return to form for the doom merchants of metal. Ticks all the mournful boxes and calls for the mortician, yet managing to have a robust riff. Also, cheerful lyrics like “Your lonely soul will rot" Yup, PL are back! https://t.co/gbnBMRuPVY

Slave - Rolling Stones Off the last, great Stones album. Very funky, super rhythm section, and a very effective sax weaving in between the vocals https://t.co/6zWFf5agU0

Blinded by Fear-At The Gates Genre defining. Fairly adjacent to thrash, even as it's classic melodic death metal. The album is a non stop parade of blistering riffs. Does get a bit repetitive, but this is truly punishing stuff. Would be great to watch live https://t.co/bhUK2PGKSQ

I (Who Have Nothing) - Warhorse A much covered song, this version by the Purple-lite Warhorse is a reminder of what this band could have been. Their first album was as awesome as their follow up was a disappointment (Burning being the standout track). https://t.co/UA8kpq04zF

Russia On Ice - Porcupine Tree Dark, with lyrics that are powerful and introspective. Conjures an appropriately cold, desolate atmosphere. Has stunning string work - and the song takes some twists and turns... A truly sombre masterpiece with lush sound. https://t.co/cHf2YdorYS
