Amazing songs with VIOLINS or CELLOS?
 

Hello everyone! :)

I'm looking for amazing songs with violins/cellos. They could be instrumentals, but the vocal music is preferable. It doesn't matter if the songs you recommend are asian, european, american etc. as long as they have violins in them! :)
Also, if you aren't lazy, please post a youtube link ^^

Thanks in advance! ^^

Umm how about this?

It's piano and....cello? I think? :thud

@pommy thanks, I like it :D yes, cello I believe and piano = lovely. But who/what is that?

Oh~ It's "Willow" by Fan Zongpei
I have the mp3 if you want~

ayu - Heartplace

I feel bad giving you an ayu song since this isn't in the ayu section, and there are plenty of other non-ayu songs with violins that are amazing, but I just absolutely love this song.

(skip to 25 seconds into it)

MISIA - Suna no Shiro

well first of all, I just have to suggest this one, I found it a while ago and it blew me away, it's an instrumental but amazing, I swear you won't be dissapointed after listening, it's a quartet (4 girls) playing violins and cellos:



and then, of course my fave ones....

Maybe you should try music by Kanon Wakeshima? She plays the cello but I'm not sure if it's your music taste. Here are some songs by Kanon:

Suna no Oshiro (Sand castle)



Toumei no Kagi (Invisible Key)



still doll

^ UGH DARN YOU BEAT ME TO IT! I was about to say "Just listen to anything by Kanon Wakeshima since she's a cello player"

@ pommy oh I'd like that, please :)

@Pieces_of_SEVEN thanks anyway, I listen to Ayu :3

@Picaflor 7/4 I haven't heard this one, thank you ^^

@noisy_harmony that's a great perfomance, thanks!: )

@artcika I love that song xD yes, it is great ^^ and some songs by Gackt are amazing too, Lost Angels :3

@AyuHamasaki01 I know about Kanon, she is amazing!!! thanks anyway ^^

Great thread. FYI, I LOVE cello music.

Ayaka Hirahara - Ashita

consists of a cello, harp and guitar.

I should have much more to contribute, but I'll need to remember which songs have cellos first... just wait a bit.

Queen - Who Wants to Live Forever

Kalafina - Kagayaku Sora no Shijima ni wa



Consist of piano, drums, and guitar.
For me, this is amazing.

Mariah Carey - One Child
KOKIA - Fate
KOKIA - KARMA

:D

sorry i can't upload either the videos or the audios.. :D

lol the first thing that popped in my head, is the orchestra version of alterna by ayu.

Strings really give the song an interesting atmosphere i think.

may post more later~

B-but you still l-love me? right? :scry

Haha nice. I'm glad you like her. :D

This is the first thing I thought of. Amazing song. The original studio version is awesome too.



Another Robyn song. Another awesome song.

This song is called explosive by the first string quartet in musical industry - bond. They have tonnes of amazing songs you can check their youtube channel.

the link artcika provided is the remix version of explosive that contained in their last album classified.

and FYI, they are 2 people playing violin, 1 viola and 1 cello.

anyway, I immediately think of this song when I read your thread title



it's a very calming and mysterious song

alans orchestra version of ashita is just mindblowingly amazing :faint

there are also lots of arabic songs with violins (most of m actually) but there is this one that is sooooooooooo good but i forgot the name!!! :bawl
