First of all, thank you so, so much for bringing up this topic! At first had trouble coming up with any much, but then thought of... well, a lot. And then also went to look up some artists I knew, and found some more awesome new music... some of it feels absolutely fantastic!
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
:D:D Well, not sure if anyone else is going to think so, but I'm definitely happy about doing this
Some of these fit with a bit of a stretch, but I understood from the above that things like that - new songs by old artists/covers (linked originals for a few likely unknown)/remakings and the like were ok enough. Some of the songs are actually ancient old, like more than a hundred years old
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
All fresh variations of course. And some are actually all brand new.
I didn't add much detail, just tried to list a few examples for each, and wrote some warnings for the especially risky content - could miss some, if so, sorry, but tried to recall the most jarring ones at least. Or would you like some extra information?
Also some of these are not in English (mostly Ukrainian and Russian), brought those here too in hopes something might be interesting for the music or other virtues
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Well, and some in English don't have much lyrics possible to hear... Didn't write the warnings on those for the lyrics content, or should I?
And was going to bring here Imagine Dragons and Hozier too, but I see already done, thanks Skyweir!
Oh, and I actually brought some death metal too

Team StarKid (Dylan Saunders & others) - Kick It Up a Notch
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yf6VdEZmKdU&t=312 Warnings: Starship soundtrack - kind of mild spoilers, though from the middle, and something that I think was pretty clear from the beginning. Also this is a musical, and the others by Starkid and TCB too.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrYtzn2 ... K0X2&t=185 Serious warning: jokes about Nazis, and especially not safe to turn it on loud, some pieces might be taken seriously out of context, and some people may think this is no joking matter at all, or that it's too dark a topic to listen to it - I actually think it's especially important to laugh at the most horrible things, no wonder, with TCTC being my favorite books since childhood, but I know not everyone thinks so
