Last two nominations. This took some thought, but here's what I'm going with.

Coheed & Cambria - Window of the Waking Mind (8:38)

The finale to the album of the same name. I would really like to have nominated the last 4 tracks together, since they clearly are meant to go together. But that would have been way over the limit, both time wise and in number of nominations. If you like this, definitely go back and listen to everything from Our Love through to the end.

Yes, there is a plot behind Coheed & Cambria. No, I have no idea what it is. I just really like their music. Plus, this song is obviously about autism, something I can definitely relate to.

Arthur Sullivan - The Lost Chord (4:22)

And now for something COMPLETELY different. Arthur Sullivan, of Gilbert and Sullivan fame, wrote this for his brother, Fred Sullivan's funeral in 1877. It is one of my all time favorite pieces of music. It is difficult to find a good rendition of this song, partly because it's written for pipe organ and high tenor. But also because it's just not very well known.

This particular recording is of tenor Webster Booth and organist Anne Ziegler. It was recorded in 1939, hence the relatively poor sound quality.

I'm a better than average singer, and my mother plays the organ, and I wish I could sing this. But I sing bass, so this is WAY outside my range, especially at the end.

And there you go, that's all my nominations. I look forward to hearing what you think, especially of that last one ;)
