bankers aren't allowed to have interests outside of IBD. bankers can only listen to bloomberg updates and speeches given by CEOs.

Totally false. Speeches by CFOs are also allowed.

We're not even allowed to listen to anything but motivational dictator speeches

Ha, good thread idea. But if you're going to post 4 youtube links, embed the videos! My IE is slow...

OP, those old school ones are def. worthy of this thread, but I would not be ashameded of your 2 "new school" songs; the new kesha may be feminine but its damn catchy, and there's nothing too embarrassing about dynamite, though I personally hate the song.

 
BTbankerOne time I splurged and listened to a book on tape.
was it your CEO's (auto)biography / memoirs?

Nope, it was david einhorn's "fooling some of the people all of the time."

I really wish I had a credit to throw shit at you for this one lol

Don't be hating :)

Ok,embarrassing songs. My ex-bandmate once mocked me for liking iggy pop and the stooges, although I don't see how that could be embarrassing.

Same here.

If you ain't gettin money dat mean you done somethin wrong. " If you have built castles in the air , your work need not be lost; that is where they should be . Now put the foundations under them." - Henry David Thoreau
 

No Vocals (no words): * Solar Stone - Solarcoaster (Original Mix) * Above & Beyond - Air For Love * Mat Zo - 24 Hours * Corderoy - Sweetest Dreams (Ferry Corsten remix)

No Vocals more intense/dancey: * Earthbound - One Nation Trance Nation (first "trance" song I've ever listened to and still one of my favorites. no obnoxious 5 minute drum loop intro, just straight to the point. love it) * Tiesto - Elements Of Life (Airbase Remix) * Nish - Blue Sunshine

Vocal Trance: * Tiesto ft. Kirsten Hawkshaw - Just Be * OceanLab - On A Good Day, Satellite * Headstrong feat. Tiff Lacey - The Truth (David West Remix) * David West - Make U Mine (Vocal Mix)

I don't really listen to trance that much anymore. Out of all the non-vocal trance songs that I just listed, "Solarcoaster" is the only one that particular stands out to me. That may be the only trance song that actually puts me in a trance every time I hear it. Maybe it's because I have (vague) memories attached to it, idk. "Air for Love" is also amazing too. If I heard that at a club I know I'd be covered in goosebumps.

 

Thread should be merged with my trance heads thread.

I dont even know where to start, I really love trance.
