DAY 2 of the 30 Day Song Challenge, alternative music styles!
Each day I’ll post the challenge and you share some of your favorite songs that meet the challenge!
One may be the loneliest number, but this community is nearly 2000 strong!
I’ll see if I can count to 10
One Week - Barenaked Ladies
Two Worlds Apart - Little Sims
Three Little Birds - Bob Marley
Four Out of Five - Arctic Monkeys (two for one)
Six Blade Knife - Dire Straits
Seven Nation Army - White Stripes
Eight Miles High - The Byrd’s
N95 - Kendrick Lamar (couldn’t think of a better “9” song)
Ten Years Gone - Led Zeppelin
@Andjhostet @ren @alternativenation 9 to 5 Dolly Parton
Forty Six & 2 - Tool
Sixteen Saltines - Jack White
Eighties - Killing Joke
O.N.E. - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard
The Four Horsemen - Aphrodite’s Child
I have a few more songs with one in it but I don’t think they mean it as a number, like “We are One” by Buckethead feat. Serj Tankian (very interesting music video)
Bonus tracks:
Infected Mushroom - 9%
Infected Mushroom & Matisyahu - One Day
Ooh, and also Infected Mushroom - After 1000 YearsE: yes there is a theme, my autistic brain found something it likes and we’re sticking to it lol (I do enjoy loads of other music, but if I need to choose to put something on, it’ll always be IM)
I’m surprised no one has said “One”. I guess Metallica’s global fame is starting to fade.
Probably the only Metallica song I ever liked - got to be coming up on nearly 40 years old at this point, eh?
Blind Melon - Three is a Magic Number - surprised this didn’t get mentioned sooner.
Elliott Smith - Thirteen - Sure, I could have gone with a Smith original, but I love this version of Thirteen.
I’m not the first person to post 2112, am I?
I thought about it. It’s an absolutely epic and essential song for any classic rock or prog fan. But I felt that it fell outside of alternative
Oh, oops, I misread the title
@ren Charlotte Gainsbourg - 5:55 (2007)
46 & 2 - Tool
is leonard cohen alternative ?
chelsea hotel #2
I’d argue yeah! his music has never been mainstream - only covers of his music lol
And another excellent song from the same album: Smashing Pumpkins - Thirty-Three
The first thing that came to mind is
15 Step - Radiohead
A couple others that came to mind that people might not know.
5 years time - Noah and the Whale
1878 - The Dear Hunter
Thirteen Hours - Andy Shauf
15 step is so good
25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago. It a 3 in one.
Ill edit this comment as I find stuff. Don’t have as much energy to compile a playlist like yesterday but I’m a fan of 13 Angels Standing Guard 'Round The Side Of Your Bed - Silver Mt. Zion
aisatsana [102] - Aphex Twin is another great one.
Any of the songs Untitled 1 through 9 from the album () by Sigur Rós
