Beethoven's Die Kreutzer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okWr-tzwOEg

From the start, with those violin notes, I get this feeling that seems to arc from my heart up to neck, a quenching shiver, a resonance. I get the goosebumps and chills reliably. I feel pain and soothing, despair and hope, smallness and immensity.

if its on () then yes.
i gave up on their titles many years ago as they are mostly, really long icelandic or made up words.
i just listen 8)

i have seen them several times, but that was the only one, where i just couldnt keep the tears in for some reason. the more intimate setting perhaps?

highly recommended if theyre ever in your area :love:

Still: they were the ones in the balcony of the Red Wedding playing it. It's on the season 2 or 4 soundtrack.

As to answer the question: Probably Simon and Garfunkel's 'Old Friends.' My best friend since kindergarten died in 2011 of complications from Myotonic Dystrophy. Had each other's back for 45 years. He once said, when we were in our early 20's, that this song reminded him of us, and that one day we'd be 'sharing a parkbench, quietly.'
It's like getting a fist in the gut every time I hear it.
