    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    A few songs I really like that have been re-aired in some recent films:

    I Got a Name, by Jim Croce, in Django Unchained.

    When the Levee Breaks, Led Zep, in Argo

    The soundtrack of the film about Rodriguez, Searching for Sugarman

    Also, Wicheta Lineman, a 60s classic

    The First Time - Leona Lewis cover. Until that it was the Roberta Flack version.

    Not her best version, but I was looking for a live one.

    Classic songs. I would also like to add
    Mack the Knife - The Bobby Darin version.
    When I was a kid I remember being blown away by the Made in Japan album by Deep Purple. Even now as I hear the intro for Highway Star, I get a tingle and remember when things seemed so much more simple.

    Bob Dylan's Hurricane too "Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed
    To live in a land where justice is a game"

    Neil Young Needle and the Damage Done

    The Las, There She Goes

    Being an Aussie, Midnight Oils' song on injustice to Aborigines, The Dead Heart gives me goosebumps:
    We don't need protection
    Don't need your hand
    Keep your promise on where we stand
    We will listen we'll understand

    We carry in our hearts the true country
    And that cannot be stolen
    We follow in the steps of our ancestry
    And that cannot be broken

    The first time I heard Video Games by Llama del Rey on 6 music I literally stopped what I was doing mid flow and didn't move a muscle.

  • no songs spring to mind as such, but some pieces of music instantly do: jerusalem, elgar: nimrod, La Marseillaise, start of land and hope and glory, vangelis: l'enfant, vaugham williams: into the fen country.

    yes i am an 70 yr old little englander (bar the vangelis and maseillaise)in the body of a youngish man!

    Until you read anything about the case the song references, as open and shut a murder case as you'll ever see.

    This gets me without fail every time.

    Always loved this Kinks song as it just evokes lovely childhood memories, not that I'm as old as Ray Davies, honest!

    And the fantastic John Holt doing his version of Mr Bojangles Goosebumps and a near tear to the eye too.

    That was 2.1 seconds to goosebumps. I wonder if anyone else has a song that can beat that?!?

    Amazing how you can hear a song and instantly be transported back in time as you link it to an event or period in your life. When you try to come up with stand out songs, you can identify loads, that may not be brilliant songs, but are intensely personal choices.

    My favourite Hendrix track is Hey Joe.
    If anyone listens to this track empathises with 'Joe', give RELATE a go first eh? :lol:

    "there was little physical evidence; police took no fingerprints at the crime scene, and lacked the facilities to conduct a paraffin test on Carter and Artis. None of the eyewitnesses identified Carter or Artis as the shooters. Carter, in fact, was brought to the hospital the evening of the shooting at approximately 4a.m., and victim Willie Marins identified Carter as not one of the shooters. "...
    "Three years later, Carter's attorneys filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in federal court. In 1985, Judge Haddon Lee Sarokin of the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey granted the writ, noting that the prosecution had been "predicated upon an appeal to racism rather than reason, and concealment rather than disclosure," and set aside the convictions."
