These guys actually have some songs in time signatures in (4+1/2)/4.

Lies. They've said it's all 4/4 with polyrhythms on top.

Try some of this, A Nightmare to Remember

[KillerWhale]

2/5, the beginning's pretty good, but as soon as the vocals come in it loses most positive qualities.They're technicians, not musicians.

Little Richard - Good Golly Miss Molly (live); it's amazing how different this song sounded live.

I have to agree with Whales here on that Dream Theater track. Not only not my style, but it just doesn't have any charm to it. Or maybe the lack of charm is just it not being my style. I like to listen to music, not math.

5/5 for Little Richard's live performances. That guy was (and probably still is) the best. He has the best expressions and his voice is fantastic.

Here's a live track from a little known New Zealand band in the early 70s. I hope I don't offend anyone with my "hippie" music.

Human Instinct - Railway and Gun

"Maori guitarist Billy TK was the Jimi Hendrix of the Southern Hemisphere. He obviously took the lessons of the Master to heart and, on his albums with Human Instinct, took Hendrix's psychedelic approach to absurd new extremes. Not necessarily the greatest listening experience, but definitely the farthest "out" of any guitar psyche you're likely to ever hear. This album is one of the most important chapters of rock from that era."

[Asvarox]

Since I'm into blues, I can't give this song rate other than 5, though the guitar is a bit too "aggressive" for me

Since we are in blues stuff, Eric Clapton - Cocaine

Actually, I disagree, Portnoy is a technician and should NEVER SING EVER AGAIN. But all of the have studied music and music theory. They are professional musicians. That is their life.

[Dracone]

I have no Blues to compare, but it's interesting nonetheless I suppose.

Killing Joke - Pandemonium

[kharnov]

Sorry to steal your turn Dracone, but this track, this track right here will melt your fucking brain.

Baby Grandmothers - Somebody Keeps Calling my Name

Baby Grandmothers - Somebody Keeps Calling my Name

(Joining the fun)

A bit Kingston Wall-esque, quite nice. I dislike the falsetto singing in the end though. 3/5

One of the best jazz records in history in my opinion. Awesome playing, they sound like the rhythm is screwing up constantly, but then they come back even tighter.

[A Spork]

Not bad at times, other times it sounded like someone was waterboarding a pregnant cat.... 1/5

As much as I liked Firefly I would hardly even qualify that as a song

The Cinematic Orchestra - Durian

More jazz.

[your face]

projazz 5/5

thank you mooseberry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGbucSjSLDw

[Dracone]

^ 3/5. Would chalk it up as a 5/5 if anyone was counting, considering that that's damn near completely out of what I'd be going hunting for, in terms of music.

Die Warzau - Bliss

One my favorites, kinda unfortunate that it's the only song like it that they've done afaik. Waiting on their next album still, seems like its progress is kinda stalling though.

[amz181]

4/5 nice tune, but the singing just doesnt sit right with me.

Time for one of the best soundtracks...EVAR!

Ennio Morricone - Ecstasy of Gold
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV0wPBYDQ6Y

If your gonna listen, listen all the way through to the end.

I really want a horse now.

Ennio Morricone - Ecstasy of Gold
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV0wPBYDQ6Y

Got the song myself, too. 5/5, simply beautiful.

Since we're going for classics, how about a classic Zappa song?

[A Spork]

Not bad.
3/5

I see your classic and raise you an Epic.

1/5

Overused and depressing.

Tommy Emmanuel - Classical Gas

[CreatureofHell]

5/5 - Skilled leg and head movements 

Chris Rea - Three Little Green Candles

[amz181]

5/5 for classical gas, one of the first "classical" pieces i ever learnt! Nostalgia Overload.

2/5 fur chris rea. It may be because im tired, but its so jolly that it gives me a headache.

Ennio Morricone - Sixty Seconds to What?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFtmdorQG-U

THE theme to a duel.

5/5 Ennio Morricone <3

Stand clear everyone, all piano version of Ride of the Valkyries - Richard Wagner

My goal in life is to play that.

[amz181]

4/5 The piano doesnt really translate the feeling of taking on the world to me

TIME TO GET FESTIVE

Learn this on the piano instead:

Carol of the Bells - Brian Brink

[Meisseli]

5/5 Ennio Morricone <3

Stand clear everyone, all piano version of Ride of the Valkyries - Richard Wagner

My goal in life is to play that.

1/5, a horrible version of the original.

Classical, then.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzVBnLhIf6c

Great ascension starting at 4:13, ending with some haunting chords at 4:28. Woah.

Anyways the other two movements are worth checking out too. The second movement is really beautiful. Overall a very nice piano concerto.

[your face]

amz: 4/5 I love that version, but I don't like it when the rock stuff starts taking over too much.  Speaking of Carol of the Bells, George Winston has a great piano version too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JYrOMK1aDA
meisseli: 4/5 <3, some of it sounds too "out there" for my taste, though.

George Winston - Variations in the Kanon

[amz181]

5/5 love winston.

Speaking of george winston, if your British, this will be ingrained into your soul.

George Winston - Walking in the Air

Walking in the Air is one of those great classics. The animation itself is shown every Christmas in Finland. 5/5

A change in genre

Good 4/5, not really the music I normally listen to but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

David Arkenstone - Quest of Culwch
