If there was such a thing as a perfect tempo, this song would exemplify it.

Deep house. That's the name of the genre. I'm not sure what it connotes, but I really dig this tune.

That's The Way/Led Zeppelin

Sometimes it takes just one song to change how you listen to a band. I was introduced to this song quite recently. One of their more stripped down compositions, yet so powerful that it makes you realize how melodic their music truly is.

Then I Close My Eyes/David Gilmour

That recurring guitar riff hits home every time. Enchanting track from Gilmour's On An Island.

Drive/Deftones

Sweet cover of The Cars' melodic 1984 hit. Check out Carpenter's guitar wails.
