The Playlist To Rule Them All
January 15, 2009 9:34 AM Subscribe
I'm trying to make a playlist to end all playlists, and I'm stuck after two songs.
I have thousands of songs, but the entrance requirements are stringent: the song must be nothing short of epic.
The first song I have is Gideon by My Morning Jacket.
The second song is Illinois by Sufjan Stevens.
So those two should serve as a good baseline for what I'm looking for... If I had twelve that were of this same caliber I would be happy. I don't want to rule out older songs, but I would rather they be from the 90's to the present. A good metric for whether a song is epic or not is replay ability... I can listen to the above two on repeat about ten times in a row before wanting to puke.
Have any worthy suggestions? Bonus points if you come up with a clever name for the playlist. This is serious stuff people.

The Grudge - by Tool? Too hard?
How about throwing in some f'in soul and the best song of all time - Stand By Me as performed by Ben E King.

Definitely Epic: Once by Nightwish... that may be a bit TOO epic, and it's not like the others, but epic yes. Also: Highlander (The One) by Lost Horizon. An epic metal (ish) track about the Highlander that the Highlander people had nothing to do with. They just loved it THAT MUCH. =) Plus I know you said one playlist to rule them all, but maybe there can be a little "There can be only one playlist"?

Seconding Mag Fields -- Strange Powers is, in my mind, one of the most perfect pop songs ever fashioned and I'm still listening to it regularly 14 years later. Epic! "...more stars than there are prostitutes in Thailand"? Pure poetry you can dance to.
Camera Obscura's Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken, and Common People by Pulp are also friggin genius and in high rotation in my mixmaking.

When I think of the word "epic", I think of a spawling song like Two Gallant's "Waves of Grain" but I'm not sure about replayability - it's over 9 minutes long.
For a song I could never ever tire of, I'd say "I Was Born (A Unicorn)" by the Unicorns does the trick.

Oh man I actually have a playlist that starts contains those two songs and follows as such:
(no links, as I am lazy and this is a lot of typing)
"The Blind Leaving the Blind: First Movement" - The Punch Brothers
"The Island/Come and See/The Landlord's Daughter/You'll Not Feel the Drowning" - The Decemberists
"Will You Please Be There for Me" - The Reindeer Section
"I Sing, I Swim" - Seabear
"I Will Possess Your Heart" - Death Cab for Cutie
"We Know Where the Time Goes" - Daniel Martin Moore
"Omaha" - Tapes n' Tapes
It goes from super up-tempo to really low-fi. It is a really awesome playlist if I do say so myself and it is also over two hours long with only nine songs. Go go 19 minutes songs!

One day like this by Elbow
Skinny Love by Bon Iver
White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes
The Great Salt Lake or Is There a Ghost by Band of Horses (actually, I dig the whole Cease to Begin album)
Us by Regina Spektor, or maybe her Lacrimosa
I Summon You by Spoon, though it doesn't have that ethereal sound of your two suggestions
I'm sure some Iron & Wine would fit the bill here, too.

Iron and Wine's "He Lays in the Reins" is epic as hell. Please add that one. Oh, and Wilco's "Impossible Germany" and probably Neko Case's "Star Witness" as well. Please and thank you.

"Planet" by the Sugarcubes is epic, though I think it's from the (late) 1980s. Bjork has some nice epic songs too, like "Bachelorette." I am assuming you mean epic in feeling and not in length...

"The Tain" by the Decemberists. Sometimes it's in five parts, but when I got it off of eMusic, it was in one film. It's like 17 minutes long and EXCELLENT.

The beatles: The medley section of Abbey road
Iron and wine and Calexico : He lay in the reins
Filter: Welcome to the fold
Queen: The prophet song
Gorillaz: Fire Coming out of a Monkey's head
Green Day: Jesus of Suburbia
Handsome boy modeling school : Rock and roll (could never hip hop like this)
Jeff Buckley: Grace
Jimi Hendrix: Red house
Led Zepplin: Stairway to heaven
David Bowie: Space Oddity
Drive-By Truckers: Sink Hole
Smashing pumpkins: The aeroplane flies high
Red hot chili peppers: Sir Psycho Sexy

Regina Spektor - Apres Moi
Okkervil River - A King and A Queen
Pretty much anything by the Decemberists: California One/Youth and Beauty Brigade, O Valencia, and the previously mentioned The Island/Come and See/The Landlord's Daughter/You'll Not Feel the Drowning are all good options
Seconding Arcade Fire - Intervention, I would also add Antichrist Television Blues as an option
I'm also a big Iron and Wine fan and the previously mentioned He Lays in the Reins is one of my favorites.
Sorry for the lack of links, but I'm at work and they block most of the fun stuff here.

So, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by epic. Most of the previous posters seem to think "grand ideas" or "really intense" or something like that, but I'm not really getting that from your two example songs. I'm just sort of taking "epic" to mean you really, really like them. So I'll make two suggestions that seem similar to the songs you posted.
That said, I had kind of a hard time determining what characteristics the songs had in common that you'd like, so I took them more or less separately.
Traits suggested by Gideon: haunting vocals over rapid and repeating guitar. Suggestion: Where the Streets have no Name by U2. Basically I listened to your clip and thought, "huh, that reminds me of that one U2 song".
Traits suggested by Illinois: Melodious singing with a unique voice over a smorgasbord of interesting instruments. Suggestion: anything by Beirut, really. Maybe Mount Wrocai? It has a trumpet, an accordion, a ukulele, and other stuff all going at the same time.

I don't think your definition of epic really matches mine, or else I'd recommend a lot of really long classic rock songs, so here are some songs that I could more or less leave on repeat ad infinitum.
A song I could leave on repeat forever is Architecture in Helsinki - Heart it Races (or the Dr. Dog cover of it).
Swans (Life After Death) by the Islands is great. It's about 9.5 minutes and would probably go well with Sufjan. Rough Gem by the Islands is a really bittersweet song that I couldn't stop listening to for some time. Their entire album, Return to the Sea, is amazing.
M83's Kim & Jessie might fit in there too.
Sigur Ros's Glosoli might also complement Sufjan. The entire song just builds and builds up until it explodes.
If you like Glosoli, Birth and Death of the Day by Explosions in the Sky might also fit. It's a really pretty song.
These are some other songs I have on repeat now that might fit with what you already have:
Yeasayer - Wait for the Summer
New Order - Age of Consent
The Mae Shi - Run to Your Grave
TV On the Radio - Wolf Like Me
Los Campesinos! - You! Me! Dancing! (this one is actually fairly epic)
The Young Knives - Turn Tail
And for a really epic song: Rush - 2112, which, even at over 20min long, I could leave on repeat. But it's from before the 90's.

I don't think I understand your use of "epic," or how others are interpreting it, anyway.
I would tentatively suggest Nick Lowe, The Beast in Me, and Nick Cave, The Ship Song. To diversify within the Ns, Neil Young, Helpless.
But will await approval of those choices before adding more.
