Music that stops everything...

[Holliday]

And pretty much everything by The American Dollar, pure mind drifting music.

 

[PaddyMC89]

Porcupine Tree's "Dark Matter". The most trip-hopping, space-rocking, psychadelic prog you'll ever hear, with, for my money, the best bit of electric guitar ever recorded.

Close your eyes and you're gone.

 

[Xordium]

All Along The Watchtower by Hendrix. Whenever that song starts playing I will stop what I'm doing and listen to it.

Yer an excellent choice - Jeff Healey's interpretation of this one is pretty stunning also.

 

[TheRedZealot]

Jingo knows the score! Here's a couple more:

 

[neverender]

Just about anything by ISIS or Explosions' gets me to stop what I'm doing and concentrate solely on the music.

 

[Decelo]

 

[Jingo...]

Jingo knows the score!

Moby - God Moving Over The Face of The Water

Superb Addition

 

[Herman Gelmet]

Stranglers - Walk on By...

 

["andy"]

 

[nimz]

Pretty much anything by these guys.

 

[Xordium]

Listened to this one earlier today the first time in years and it I just went wow:

 

[Gilly]

Simon and Garfuknel - The Sound of Silence

Hello darkness my old friend...

 

[Big Chris]

Yndi Halda

Just about anything by ISIS or Explosions' gets me to stop what I'm doing and concentrate solely on the music.

Agreed.

The most enthralling track I've heard in a long, long time is Dim by Cult of Luna

[EvilDreams]

Most Coldplay songs "stop everything" because they are energy-sapping to the point of just about putting you into a coma. They should be banned from the workplace due to all the lost productivity they cause by making you feel like you just swam through 20 miles of molasses.

 

[Sin_Chase]

But of course:

 

[Gilly]

Forever Autumn - Jeff Wayne

 

[Morgoth]

Robert Miles - Children

 

[Beerguzzler]

Sorry, there is a few....

...And there is a lot more!
