Latinoamérica (Calle 13)
Aquí se comparte, lo mío es tuyo/Este pueblo no se ahoga con marullos/Y si se derrumba, yo lo reconstruyo/Tampoco pestañeo cuando te miro/Para que te recuerde' de mi apellido/La Operación Cóndor invadiendo mi nido/Perdono, pero nunca olvido, ¡oye!/(Vamos caminando) Aquí se respira lucha
"This song is in spanish, so I don't know if it'll get in (I sent in a video with english subtitles, if it helps), but it's probably the only song that makes me cry literally EVERY TIME I listen to it. This text is a very long and corny, I'm sorry. Feel free to ignore. I'm latin american, and the thing is, you grow up hearing of all of the problems that happen in your country and neighbouring countries. From our history as former colonies (and all of the issues this still causes in our current societies), to corruption, to the massive exploitation we still go through from first world countries. When you're young you struggle with how you see yourself and your people, because media (ESPECIALLY foreign media) talks about us as if we are worth less, and that sentiment is doubled if they're talking about immigrants. As you grow up, it's easier to see the nuance in this sentiment, and to acknowledge that THERE ARE good things about our countries, even if a foreign someone doesn't see it. Even with all of these issues, I LOVE my country. I love latinamerican people. I love our culture, I love our traditions, I love how we are always trying to turn our situation around, how we try to improve and support each other, how we continue walking foward even if that is difficult. This song, from Calle 13, is a celebration to Latin America. It points out our painful history and some of the issues we go through now, but it focuses on how we persevere. About being proud of your roots. AGUANTE LATINOAMÉRICA!"
In The Hall Of The Mountain King (Edvard Grieg)
"It's like, THE OG fuck-you-up song. Starts off calm and ramps up to be fucking insane. Anxiety incarnate. Imagine being one of the first people to listen to this back in the 1800s, I would've had a heart attack"

I feel like you'll know the answer to this ~ what is that classical music song that gets faster and faster and more chaotic as it goes on, and it's got like violins and it starts out real slow and picks up speed??? It's used a bunch of memes and shit and it was in the video with that dried noodle guy chat I think??????
Oh Anon, you picked the right nerd for this. I know exactly which piece you're talking about. It's 'In the Hall of the Mountain King' by Grieg, from his Peer Gynt suite: (your description was spot on and also perfectly chaotic, I love it)

I need someone to come and explain to me how I managed to live until now without knowing about the existence of Edvard Grieg—no, scratch that, I need someone to take responsibility for their own guilt and moral sense because how is it possible that no one in my life ever introduced me to this composer?
People in my life have no justification

X-Kid (Green Day)
I once was old enough to know better/Then I was too young to care, but who cares?/I probably would, but Hollywood is dead and gone/You fell in love, but then you just fell apart/Like a kick in the head, you're an X-Kid/And you never even got started again
