I love that Arvo Paert piece. Have you heard Eric Whitacre's stuff? It's similar, but Whitacre has a more spare aesthetic. The sounds he can get just out of a choir are amazing to me:
Also I like the Morcheeba song. The video is haunting, too. I've never heard of them before.

I have not, but choral music in general to me is so sublime. Whenever I peruse the Hearts of Space archives, I find myself digging through their choral music episodes.
Choral music like this is so chilling, yet so pure and moving. I really like it a lot.

You know what, I almost posted this very song after I saw this thread, but decided not to. Had searched for it on youtube and was watching it and was about to put it in this thread, then decided at the last second not to do it.

This video makes me wish I had ovaries so I could bear this man's children.
Easy Day
judging by his pitch range on this video, he may be able to bear yours.

Nice.
Perhaps not a castrato, but some sort of haute-contre countertenor. The most stunning example of this voice type I've heard is Russell Oberlin:
Two contemporary examples:

You know, I haven't actually heard most of those songs off Battle of Los Angeles (didn't get to buy that album). They got funkier apparently, heh.

I caught it the other day on some cartoon channel I didn't even know I had. It actually holds up really well; a lot of jokes that probably went way over my head as a kid, lol.

I appreciate music.
How 'bout some buckethead
i like buckethead. but he plays too loud. ear bleeding occurs on all non soothing songs. which is 95% of songs. Better sound board people are needed most places, unless your a huge artist you can't have a dedicated sound guy who's great. Unless you got some loyal groupies. Been to two shows 1 was say 30% louder at the same place, and the lights were shit the 2nd time too. Totally ruined it. Drunk people should not be on the soundboard.
Anyone who doesn't like Amanda Palmer probably doesn't have a soul.
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
I've always loved this song:
DeVotchKa- How it ends

oh god yes, awesome song
