    Post the songs you know that make you think about what is being said, or just make you think in general. Thos are always the best songs. I specifically am looking for songs to listen to while tripping soon, and honestly, trance doesn't really benefit me other than sounding really crazy, I like the songs with statements in them or questions that make you ponder.
    My favorite one, even though it isn't technically a "real" song, is Demitri Martin's - Wisdom Song... its interesting and has lots of sayings that are pretty obvious, but they're fun to hear while tripping.

    Yes, this could have been in psychedelics, but not much traffic there. This is for off-topics. Be an ass if you want though

    All music makes me think. Music is a beautiful thing. ^^

    it's a cliche.. but pink floyd songs are awsome for that..

    'echoes' by pink floyd is a good one, also 'welcome to the machine'

    Some songs really get me thinking without lyrics, as someone said: dissonance is a bliss

    Meaning when I hear a beautiful piece of music, maybe a nice mysterious riff or a key signature change that is beautiful I just sit and think
    Examples:
    Comfortably numb- Pink Floyd
    Fade to black- Metallica

    Octopus by syd barrett always makes me think of how the fuck he came up with such delightful lyrics.

    Octopus was most likely written on an acid trip. That song makes the least amount of sense out of all the songs on the Madcap Laughs.

    All songs make me think about what is being said and/or in general, sometimes positively and other times negatively. Now that I come to think about it, everything makes me think :)

    Pretty much the whole Michael Franti & Spearhead "Yell Fire" album makes me think about stuff. Also alot of the Medeski Martin & Wood stuff makes me think. Even though theres no lyrics It kinda lets my mind wander a bit.
