I was going to post this same thing.

"Your pride should be a lighter thing;
An easy thing, a cheerful thing."

 

[MWM]

Primordial- The Coffin Ships.

I must agree with this. It is a very powerful track, both musically and vocally. Definitely one of their best.

 

[The Emptier]

Handel is great, my choir sings a couple of his epic choruses, including alleluja and it's nothing short of awesome.

God it's strange seeing people overseas mentioning them.

My own personal most inspiring song is "Slippin' Away" by Hypocrisy, but I could name many others...
