Wholeheartedly agree, but you have to include Show Yourself and the regular Into the Unknown too.

See, the problem with those is that Idina Menzel is singing them. I'm not really a fan of her singing voice; plus, she is singing way out of her range. 

Feel free to disagree with me.

I think I just about screamed during this whole fight because of how amazing it was. The song was absolutely amazing. Video has huge spoilers tho.

No, I kinda have to agree with that, but when I sing them, it's in my singing range because I can reach pretty dang high, so I sound good and feel good.

That's cool. How high can you sing, out of curiosity?

(It's kinda funny; in the PatD version, the (male) singer sounds better than Elsa on the high notes.)

Dishonor! Dishonor on your whole family! Crickey, write this down... Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow!

One does not simply sing better than Idina Menzel.

In all seriousness, that's fine, tastes can differ. I have a sneaking suspicion, though, that many people overrate her singing abilities because all her songs in the Frozen movies are really well written and orchestrated.

And now I present an offering:

New favorite. The Last Battle, by Sabaton

 

[Zurvanight he/him]

Rean's route battle theme from Hajimari no Kiseki which came out today. This theme is incredible!

Normally I'm not one to listen to Christmas music in August, but I've recently gotten into the Lower Lights, and they're just fantastic.

Also, I've been enjoying the Killers' new album, Imploding the Mirage, and Erasure's newest, The Neon, over the past week or so. (Re)discovered Sky Sailing somewhere in there too, upon recommendation from my sister.

Found a new song, Another New World by The Punch Brothers. It’s... haunting. Maybe if you’ve read Annabelle Lee by Edgar Allen Poe you’d draw more insight into the lyrics, but I’m mostly a sucker for the banjo. PLUS it sounds really good on the guitar!

[Silverblade5 he/him]

The Swedish version of "A Lifetime in War" might just be one of the most beautiful things I've recently listened to, and every should listen to it immediately

Literally anything with Ben Folds. This guy is awesome. Specifically his solo album Rockin’ The Suburbs. It’s really really good. Haven’t found a song I don’t love on that album.

I know only a few of his songs (mainly from Over the Hedge), but honestly all of them are so good. Still might be my personal favorite, either the reprise or the actual version. Do you have any specific recommendations? 

[FriarFritz]

You might be cool.

But are you "Christopher Lee singing 'The Impossible Dream' as a metal song" cool?

I literally didn’t see this til now =P

His solo album Rockin the Suburbs is really really good. There’s only like 2 songs on that album that I don’t adore. 
 

I also like his most recent song, 2020. It has a nice melody and is quite funny imo, but it does drop the f-bomb once so language warning ig.

Listening to Sufjan Stevens' new one for the second time right now. It's a nice record. Definitely tame though. I'd consider it one of his lesser main solo releases. The title track (The Ascension) is a gem though - such a beautiful song. It sounds like an electronic take on the minimalistic, melancholic song-writing style of Carrie & Lowell. It also reminds me of Mercury, which is another one of his most moving songs of the last years, in my opinion.

Y'ALL. I FOUND SZETH'S THEME SONG. It's very explicit though, so don't listen in a place where curse words will get you in trouble.
