Doug's Tuneplug: Great music with no powers - classicdrogn - 05-30-2022

Instrumentals with no lyrics or lyrics with no accompaniment can still make good music, and who wants to listen to bad music all the time, or just elevator pabulum, even for the sake of not getting surprise power manifestations? This thread is to propose things that don't meet the requirements for Doug's power, but still feel exciting, inspiring, or at least fun to listen to.

First up, 8-Bit Big Band's rendition of the Super Mario Underground theme ft. Leo P on sax:




For another, Polyphia's Playing God




Going the other way, here's Easter Island by the a capella group Throat Culture

What are your suggestions?

Rick Wakeman's "Dance of the Thousand Lights" from the Return to the Centre of the Earth album, 1999.

Top Gun Anthem.

Most if not all of L'Orchestra Cinématique's orchestral arrangements of various popular music probably also qualify for this purpose.

Might I suggest the instrumental (and metal) versions of the Black Knight 2000 and Black Knight: Sword of Rage soundtracks?

a local station did a "70s A-Z weekend" for the recent holiday (every song from the 70s, in alphabetical order)

Along the way I caught this song and realized it has no lyrics to trigger Doug's power

Can a marketing theme be "great music?" I'd say so.
