I know there's a lot of music blogs asking for recommendations and such...however, each of them are by different people with different tastes as mine. These are three songs I enjoy quite a bit...but I really don't know what they have in common.
So of course I go to TL to tell me what kind of music I like... Because I don't know really. If anyone wants more songs, I'll post them.
If anyone has individual songs they'd recommend post those too

(skip to 0:55 if you want to get straight to the music)


(another Liquidian posted this sometime ago)


and also you might like the original 99 red balloons (99 luftbalons)



Edit: oh, for some reason I thought the first song was Give It All by Rise Against (video enabling was disabled so I made that assumption off of the screen cap).

In that case I might actually recommend more

99 Luftbalons actually has quite a deep meaning. I was shocked when a friend translated it for me, honestly. Never woulda imagined.
Complete the cycle!

Nena recorded an English version of it as well - 99 Red Balloons.


There's a great site www.pandora.com where you can enter your favorite artists/songs and it will play different songs that it thinks you will like. This is based on the Music Genome Project. Cool site, I've found some great stuff on there :D

you like melodic rock/punk, and poppy sounding singer/songwriting.

Probably the best way to find music is the web. Just look everywhere, take note of all music. When you find a few songs that you particularly like, go to iTunes store and test out the songs from the artist. Most of songs are from "references." What I mean by this is you find song A by artist 1. You search up artist 1 and find songs B and C. While listening to those songs (probably on YouTube), you see related songs from artist 2. From artist 2, you find songs D, E. This slowly branches out over and over again. If you play an instrument, then that will really help with finding music preferences. Another way is certainly Pandora. Find one artist or song you like, and it will match similar music. Just do this and you will eventually find your music identity.

Remember one thing though: What songs and genres you like changes. You can sometimes even force yourself to start liking a genre. I guess this is called appreciating varieties of music.

EDIT: As for suggestions, I think you may like Slow Down, by The Academy Is.


EDIT2: After watching that music video... Bottom line, that music video is actually really screwed up. I personally have never watched it until now, haha.
