favorite orbital song

The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

TOOTLED!

Followed by Dwr Budr which is highly underestimated in my opinion.
You look real great.

Dwr Budr was my favourite track on In Sides when I first got it. It's now tied with Adnan's, but still probably in my top ten Orbital tracks.

Favourites... Funny Break and LC1.

Lush, because it was the first Orbital track I ever heard, well saw and heard really. The music and clip were both so refreshing at the time. It was my starting point for getting into Orbital.

Halcyon, because it has a timeless quality to it and gets me in a kind of weird nostalgic trippy mood every time I hear it.

The Box, brilliant song and also because I have the rare 2 track CD single and cannot resist mentioning it every time I talk about Orbital (sorry for that).

Funny Break, best track of the last years. It brought back memories to the Lush/Halcyon days and somehow gets me in a really emotional state.

At the moment am thinking TGWTSIHH, maily cos it was the D's Bs live.

I'm planning to have The Box played at my funeral, though.

Dwr Budr- OMG I really really adore this tune, both beautiful and dark.
Impact USA, Remind, Nothing Left part 2 and Adnans are all up there as my favourites.

Ah...listening to Dwr Budr now and I can safely say my hairs still stand on end every time.

yea the box was great too...i also have the extended version as well. Oh and on "Out There Somewhere P1" there is a part at (6:09-7:55) which is sooo nice. Thats on reason why I call In-Sides the best cd I have ever heard.
