name a rare song that you view as the most intense

Intense and Obscure -
Truth Don Die by Femi Kuti
Ocean - John Butler Trio
Kick Out the Jams - The MC5
Reactor - Disco Biscuits
Echo - Perpetual Groove
Grooves - Robert Randolph and the Family Band
Home - Dream Theater
Blueberry Cave - Garaj Mahal
Anything that has a drum solo from the band Perpetual Groove.
Vegetable Man by the Mad Cap himself, Syd Barrett during his short lived solo career
the entire live album Talking Only Makes It Worse by TJ Kirk. I listened to it on the radio once and still have never been able to find it in any record store.
For those of you who like rap, Classified is almost unheard of where I'm from.

Unheralded songs from well known bands
Gap by 311
Firewater by 311
Stealing Happy Hours by 311
The Toyes version of Smoke Two Joints (the original)
Weather Report Suite - Grateful Dead
Set the Controls For the Heart Of the Sun - Pink Floyd
Phil's Farm - Umphrey's McGee

For anyone who thinks of Smoke On the Water whenever they think of Deep Purple I suggest listening to the album Made In Japan.
the album An American Prayer - Jim Morrison

And quite frankly, in my opinion, one of the top 2 or 3 songs ever written (it does get a lot of respect, but I think every one should know it) is Driving Song by Widespread Panic. I'm not a huge fan of Panic but that song is just unbelievable.

 

I can think of one: He----ro-----in....

 

Axwell's Feel The Vibe.

Definitely intense. A modern dance song reminiscent of those great rave tracks I used to listen to back in the early nineties.

 

You went to raves in the early 90s? Damn, you must have been a cool little kid.

 

To Here Knows When - My Bloody Valentine. An hypnotic song (as most of their ones), with a repetitive beat and guitar and lush vocals.

Star - 08001. Something beautiful. Trip hop mixed arabic and reggae vocals. It's very trippy and lovely.

 

pretty-korn...listen to it...its fucked up...

 

Sneaker Pimps "Post Modern Sleaze"
Andy McKee "Drifting"

 

leonard cohen's hallelujah

 

End of the World-U2

 

I'm not really sure what you mean by "intense" could mean any thing, but a couple of rare songs that get my blood pumping hard is Cocaine - by Paul Oakenfold, Sasha and Carl Cox, and Red Tape - by Agent Provocateur.

 

The Beatles - Whats The New Mary Jane. It's quite trippy.

 

Diss songs that Eminem makes are pretty underground and they're really intense. Eminem is definately one of the best battlers. But the best probably is Nail in the Coffin made directly to Benzino.

 

Eminem is a shit battler

Vanilla Ice creamed his ass

 

That would've been some accomplishment seeing as I was born in '88. I used to listen to all the early nineties rave/dance music on the radio.
