Share MYSTICAL, HAUNTING songs


I want to thank everyone who contributed to my last request for albums where all the songs were good. I find myself going back to my favorite genre of music (if it is such a thing), Mysterious, Mystical, Haunting type songs. My ‘Best of Mysterious’ CD’s have a lot of playtime.
I don’t want to overwhelm everyone right off the bat, so here are a few from my playlist:

Would welcome your contributions. Thanks in advance.  Corey

Anything from Mazzy Star and her solo work (Hope Sandoval). Start with her most well known Mazzy Star album “So That I Might See”. It doesn’t get any more haunting than her sound.

Add to this list Philip Glass’ “Koyaanisqatsi” and the depressing, but incredibly well done decay Timelapse documentary named after the same Hopi term (Life out of Balance) released in 1982. Couldn’t be any more pertinent today.
