What was the first song you listened to in the new year? Did you put any special thought into it or was it just a random selection?

I have this tradition where I always listen to New Years Day by U2 as the first song each year.

Mine was an easy choice, I've Seen All Good People by Yes.

Learning To Live between years (casually the turning came just seconds before the F#) and then, after all the outcry subsided, Rush - The Garden

"Indiscipline" by King Crimson

I LIKE IT!!!!

Rage against the machine- Bulls on Parade and then the rest of Evil Empire

Didn't put any thought into it, just a craving.

The Offspring - The Future is Now

Now that I think about it, that does sound like I picked it specifically for the New Year, but I totally didn't.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #9 on:** January 01, 2013, 05:33:43 AM »

No special choice for me. I think technically it happened to be a live bootleg of DT - Afterlife from 1993 as I was checking for an F#, but that was more skimming than a proper listen.
First proper song was either something by Journey or Foreigner, I believe. Either Don't Stop Believin' or Hot Blooded.

I was at a party, can't remember what the exact song was.

Wasn't going to put much thought into it, but started with Threshold/The Hours (pretty good summary for my life lately), and then moved on to Masterplan/I'm Gonna Win with the intent to adjust my attitude for 2013.

Fisi · « **Reply #13 on:** January 01, 2013, 06:10:36 AM »

For some reason I wanted to listen to Systematic Chaos, so I guess my first song of 2013 happened to be The Ministry Of Lost Souls.

The Beatles - Drive my car

At about four in the morning, me and my buds decided to listen to the entire Rubber soul. That's what I call a party.

Gojira - To Sirius

Because yesterday it wasn't really my day and I needed some death metal to pick myself up

nightmare_cinema · « **Reply #16 on:** January 01, 2013, 06:57:53 AM »

We made a conscious decision to listen to extended 'Road Salt' (the song) by Pain of Salvation across midnight, while smooching and then watched the fireworks. It was meaningful as it's one of my favourite songs and the song I listened to on repeat sat at my mum's bedside as she died, yesterday was two years to the day that we buried her. And PoS is the guy I'm seeing's favourite band... so yeah. I'll remember that NYE. Beautiful.

Scorpion · « **Reply #17 on:** January 01, 2013, 07:22:45 AM »

I listened to my favourite song of all time, SoaD's Soldier Side. I've been doing so for two years now, I believe.

Lowdz · « **Reply #18 on:** January 01, 2013, 07:28:22 AM »

Signals was playing in the car when I set off to work this morning- so it was New World Man. I was in bed at 11.15 last night so no music playing last night.
As my dad would say "it's just another day". Fogey alert!

Goodbye to Everything by Between The Buried And Me. Wasn't even thinking about playing something appropriate, I just popped Parallax II on for music for some late night reading.

I've not listened to a full song yet this year. Unsustainable is a fine choice. Will probably be Supremacy, though.

First song in 2013 was on my iPod this morning at the gym.

To-Mera - "Inviting The Storm" which is the opening track to their 2012 album "Exile"

I've been digging the hell out of it since I picked it up.

Primordial - "As Rome Burns"

Just had it on while I was doing some writing. No special meaning other than that.

Learning to Live.

I saw this thread earlier, before I'd listened to anything and thought "ooh, better kick off the year with a good one"

I listened to Metropolis late on Christmas Eve and while I was listening, I thought to myself "I'm sure I listened to this about the same time last Christmas Eve" so I checked my LFM stats and I had listened to it at that time last year. Might make it a little tradition

let's see, if I remember correctly it was Yes - "Ritual (Nous Sommes Du Soleil)"
