    Default Music that really fits

    Okay, as most of you know I am not really that much into music, but every now and then a melody just fits perfectly with what it is intended to. I will give two examples and will hope that many of you can come up with your own examples.

    So here we go:YouTube - The Ecstasy of Gold

    Doesn't this piece describe Tucos state of mind perfectly while searching for the grave site that he believes contains a fortune in gold?

    And what about this one:YouTube - Billy Joel - Pressure

    Doesn't the music in this song by Billy Joel describe pressure perfectly? Not the lyrics or video, just the music.

    Let me see some of your picks for melodies fitting their intentions.

    Come to think of it, that ecstacy of gold video I think aptly describes ChrisL, JimmyHAD, hibudgl, and me looking for the elusive hone of perfection

    YouTube - Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms: Video


    Turn up the volume and don't watch the video, it ruins it.

    Again, don't bother with the video.

    Here's some creepy music from a creepy horror movie, Suspiria (1977)
    The band was called Goblin ~~~~~~~ Muwahahaaha !


    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    Bringing this old thread back to life I hope.

    I cant explain it but the lyrics and music fit perfectly with Bela Lugosi's screen persona and how one might feel upon receiving the news of his death. YouTube - Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead [Music Video]

    Here are the lyrics:
    White on white translucent black capes
    Back on the rack
    Bela Lugosi's dead
    The bats have left the bell tower
    The victims have been bled
    Red velvet lines the black box
    Bela Lugosi's dead
    Undead undead undead
    The virginal brides file past his tomb
    Strewn with time's dead flowers
    Bereft in deathly bloom
    Alone in a darkened room
    The count
    Bela Lugosi's dead
    Undead undead undead
