Music that makes you want to be Knightly.
« on: 2011-05-03, 01:52:49 »
What Music makes you want to be Knightly? What makes you go "Yeah, I can do this"? What Inspires you?

I fully admit that there's a lot that does it for me, in fact it get's kind of eclectic in that way, but here's a few:

Disturbed- Indestructible.

John Butler Trio- Revolution.

Matisyahu- One Day

And yes, even Flogging Molly seems to do it too.

This song sets my soul to ease. If I were to listen to it before a fight then my mind would be still, without preference for this or that. I could face any challenge with better clarity.

For some reason, when I hear this song I get the irresistible urge to don armor, gird sword and wreak havoc on an unsuspecting populace.  Mayhap I was a reaver in another life.

I love Arcana! Although Por Ti Volare is my single combat song....

Yeah Arcana is really nice, I prefer neoclassical to traditional classical due to the more epic quality as well as it being dark at times.

This is the song that got me into Gregorian/church type music. Somewhat creepy but I really like it.

Sir Ulrich, I've never heard that before but I do like it.  Quite a bit.  There was a game I used to play that had a really great soundtrack to it...but I can't recall the game.  I can almost hear it.

I like it. It reminds me of this:



This is not the best music, but I love AC, and the video sync to the music is very well done:

Rhydian Roberts...first I've heard of him but I'm digging his vocals...O Fortuna is one of my all-time favorites!

These ones do it for me too...not sure why, but especially like listening while driving.
