heatley015 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2008 Alright, so I am looking for an instrumental song, as in, with out any lyrics. It's a little project for school we bring in a song and everyone plays there song we take turns. So the theme is instrumental this time and so far everyone has taken classical. I refuse to take classical but so far the only song I can think of is Sandstorm, which I may end up using. Anyone have any other ideas? Thanks a lot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie Joe 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2008 Anything by Ennio Morricone, amazing composer who created scores for well over 500 Westerns. His work sounds amazing and one great track can be heard as the opener on Metallica's S&M CD.Sigur Ros; are a band from Iceland that produce music like no other. I have heard one fan, say of their music. "They are the 1st band to bridge the gap between music and emotion." I like that description allot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
