1, 3, 8, 12, 13, 16, 20, 28, 31, 34, etc.... too many amazing songs...

3 Ghosts I gives me goosebumps. The moment I heard it I ordered Ghosts in physical form, all my doubts were annihilated

I'm totally hooked on 31 Ghosts IV, it remindes me heavily of Just Like you Imagined which is very cool imo. The track is as chaotic as my thoughts to it.

Also I sent a friend of mine 14 Ghosts II (he greatly dissapproves instrumental tracks most of the time). After listening to it he said: "That's something I might listen to while having sex in teh jungle".
Now I always have that picture in mind when i listen to that track, nevertheless my 2nd fav from Ghosts I-IV.

My favorite track is either 34 or 1.

1 makes me think of a cloudless rainy day, and 34 makes me think of an empty sundrenched building. ;D

I have to say: 3, 7, 14, 18, 21 (reminds me of a song from KH that could of been removed from the OST), 24, 35, 36.

 

08/18/08 10:29 PM

Like many others here, 28 is probably my favourite.

31 stood out to me upon first listen, and still does.

I'm also really fond of the two hidden tracks, Ghosts 37 and 38. The intro to the former is apocalyptic and all kinds of amazing.

Now how would that work.

Sunshower?

 

08/19/08 6:24 AM

Yeah, but you still need clouds don't you?

I dunno.

 

08/19/08 8:15 AM

Perhaps they're referring to the calm and still that appears in the wake of rain?

 

08/19/08 11:24 AM

i really am getting into 38...just the noise in that is enough to hook anyone into electronic music....

31 Sounded amazing live, and the visuals reminded me a lot the the Non-Entity lights from BYIT.

This thread is for people to discuss their affinity for certain tracks from Ghosts, not to discuss the logic of their daydreams.
Please stay on topic Thanks

I have a thing for 25 Ghosts III- The bass is really intense when played through my HIFI.
At the place I work at there are these massive riddling machines that hold 300 sparkling wine bottles and move very slowly making a clinking sound. This track makes me think of what it might be like to be trapped in bottling warehouse after some kind of disaster with only the ghosts of dead workers as companions.

(ghosts II 03) really all ghosts II takes the album to a different level. It mixes Trent's talent on the piano with his electric and ambient roots. Takes me to another place ......

Got a bunch of faves on Ghosts, but I think the BEST BEST BEST BEST ones are 14 and 32 (yes, it's a friggen tie). I shall lazily import my professional & eloquent reviews from ze blog:

14 Ghosts II (Perfect II. It reminds me a little of the scene in Gladiator where the cam spins around Team Maximus et Juba in Zucchabar, for they are caught in an upward (or should that be downward?) spiral (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) of success, fame, insanity, adrenaline, arse-sand and groupie-counts! WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Then there is that euphoric, drunkedly dancing, howling guitar on TOP of the perfection!)

32 Ghosts IV (The first perfect Ghost to haunt my fave list. Flustering! Kind of porny! However, Meathead's sharing his vision of another 80's car chase cooled me off a little. Fuck.)


So. Um. Yeah. 8) And sorry if I ruined anyone's mind-video.
*checks spelling of Eloquent*

I like a lot of them, but I'd have to say 20 Ghosts III is still top, and mainly because of the last third; the bass line is amazing, the guitar is mental (especially when it goes massively distorted), and the piano tune is great (plus the part of the cycle it ends on is cool).

1 & 37 are my absolute favourites...1 conjuring similar images to those I get when listening to La Mer (green skies, empty ocean), and 37 just being...creepy as fuck.

37 reminds me of the x-files...

12, my life in 2:17.

Me too, come to think of it.

37 gave me visions of a church full of robots. And then it sounds like meaty arms are getting sawed off. :q

 

08/22/08 4:50 PM

Ghosts 22. I adore it, I love hearing Trent's talent on piano.

It is a really lovely track. This might seem a bit corny and Dorothea Mackellar, but when I listen to it I imagine being an eagle flying over parts of Australia.

After hearing 25 performed at the dallas show, I went home and listened to it several times. I was extremely impressed with just the mood it brings, I always see a creepy bayou when i listen to it.

 

08/24/08 10:48 PM

37 does the best job of setting a mood, imo. But my favorite is 29. it grooves. that and 24

28 Ghosts IV

It's been my favourite since I first heard it on the NIN Ghosts player right at the beginning.

 

08/25/08 3:05 PM

13 Ghosts II made my heart explode.

that is all.

 

08/25/08 6:17 PM

12 - paints a picture of someone who has been beaten down, and then fights there way back, absolutely beautiful.

14 - just an amazing freakin awesome song, so colorful, freedom, celebration - uninhibited. Great cruising song too.

27 - not sure why - it's raunchy, viscious, noisy guitar I adore.

31 - extremely powerful song - definetly gets my blood pumping. VEHEMENT!
