Because I felt like it.

Nemo by Nightwish

This song gives me the chills because, for one, the music is beautiful. Two, it has a very personal meaning for me. It's basically the story of my decoversion to atheism. The song feels like a journey of finding out who you are and what you believe. "Nemo" means "no one" in latin, and that's how I felt for a long time about my beliefs. The bridge, "Nemo sailing home, Nemo letting go," occasionally brings me to tears.

Cosmos theme by Vangelis

This is the song used for the opening of Carl Sagan's show, Cosmos. It's from the arrangement "Heaven and Hell" (which I have on iTunes - it's 20 minutes long. XD). It is like a sense of wonder, power, and light all balled up in an orchestra. It gives you a sense of how vast and beautiful the universe is - just like Mr. Sagan.

The Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel


This song is just haunting and beautiful. It needs no elaboration. It speaks for itself.
