Music that embodies images and emotions.

I just was going through my library of music and I have found three songs that embody images and emotions very well.

The first is Beethovan's "Ode to Joy." It's just so...hopeful. It brings about images of people celebrating.

The second is John William's "Imperial March." Song just seems to fit any and all evil nicely. When I listen to it I can just hear jackboots clinking on roads, or people being lined up against walls and being shot.

Another song by John Williams. The "Theme From Schindler's List" embodies a sort of sadness. I can fit almost any big-time regretable situation with this song and it seems to fit.

Post whatever you see fit.

Tsuneo Imahori's "People Everyday" has a very angsty and sad feel to it.

John Williams, of course, has plenty of examples of music that have a definate emotion.

"Music that embodies images and emotions" has a whole other meaning for someone with synesthesia, heh.

Most, if not all, music has some emotion behind it...

I should have probably said "espescially embodies images and emotions." There's some music that only brings about a fuzzy blur, but some that bring out a full clear picture, or even a movie in my mind!
