From the 2009 album Awake

I am not religious in the slightest, and I absolutely HATE Christian music. However - Christian rock specifically fucking ROCKS.
Also NF but I don't really think of him as a "Christian rapper", but rather more of a "rapper who is Christian"

Still researching, but soon I will start adding important events for dates!

From the 1993 album In Utero

It's Wednesday! Wednesdays are for covers! Today's cover happens to also (and primarily) be a remix
Original Artist: Odyssey Eurobeat

I couldn't resist making this the first song I used for Cover Day. This was the first version of the song that I heard, and of the three-four versions I know of it, this is still my favorite version!

From the 2017 album Sandcastle Kingdoms

Three Days Grace is my favorite band, but overall they are only second favorite artist. NateWantsToBattle is my favorite artist, and Nathan's voice is definitely my favorite voice in, probably all genres.

Only one bonus song this time.
Bonus Song: John Lennon - Imagine

84 years ago, on October 9th, 1940, John Lennon was born. He later died in 1980 at the age of 40. He was best known for his time in The Beatles, which I believe is still the most successful rock band in history (with a close second being either the Stones or Zeppelin).

From the 2021 album OK Orchestra

These guys are fun. That's my impression from their music, and I can not for the LIFE of me understand why they get so much hate

I feel as if I can start doing that date fun fact thing by October 3rd at the latest. SO MANY BIRTHDAYS... SO MANY ALBUM RELEASES...

I made a private playlist on Spotify called "Songs from the Cage", and I have songs planned from today (the 20th) all the way through the end of Spooky Month (and I have loose ideas of what to do for November.)
I'm also planning only ONE rule: Wednesdays are for COVERS. So every Wednesday, expect a cover!
(I'm going to try to do these daily, but who knows if I'll be able to keep that 'promise'.)

From the 2020 album Aurora.

This is my favorite version of the song. And no, not just because the original lead singer of Three Days Grace is in it. Breaking Benjamin's Aurora album is full of reimaginations of a lot of their classic songs (along with one or two new ones), and they are all beautiful. This one is my favorite.

From the 2007 album Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces

Funny story.

From the 2011 album Merry Merry Time of Year

I should really take a deep dive into Irish music and culture at some point. I like everything I've seen of it. Probably second favorite behind Greek and above Japanese.
Day 19 of Cage's 25 Days of Christmas Songs

From the 2010 album Nightmare

This song, for some reason, reminds me of Batman. Gotham City fits the Halloween aesthetic.
M. Shadows has one of the best voices in metal. Change my mind.
Day 15 of #SpookyMonth

From the 1996 album Antichrist Superstar

From the 2006 film Hoodwinked!

Edit: From their self-titled 2003 debut album, Three Days Grace (Eh, thought I should also say the album)

You know, I understand why the first version of The Real Slim Shady that pops up is censored.
I do NOT understand this one; they censored the word hit. TDG is Canadian; idk, maybe it's different up there

So, since I posted the main blog rather late, I was intending for no bonuses.

However, I take new album releases seriously, and I just discovered AViVA had released an album on the 22nd and. I. Missed. It.

Just listened to it, loved it.

Bonus Song: AViVA - POISONOUS

From the 2024 album Hopeless Romantic

Only one major thing I really care about happened on this day. Time to celebrate.
Bonus Song: PrinceWhateverer - Solidarity (In This Together)
From the 2019 album Reimagine

Only one song!

Bonus Song: JT Music - This is the Last Night

From the 2024 album JT XXII

One year ago, on October 27th, 2023, the Five Nights at Freddy's movie was finally released, which is a very big milestone for one of my favorite franchises. To celebrate, I have queued up this wonderful fan song from JT Music (and, might I say, it is DEFINITELY one of their best songs)!

Fron the 2019 EP No.6 Collaborations Project

I'd just like to say that I do NOT really like Justin Bieber. There's only two songs with just him that I like (those being Sorry and Love Yourself). The only other JB songs that I like are all collaborations (this one, along with Stuck With U (with Ariana Grande), and Monster (with Shawn Mendes)). Other than that? I'm just gonna say it bluntly; he fuckin' sucks.

From the 2019 album Flawed Design

It is October 1st, and that means it is OFFICIALLY Spooky Month! Every song this entire MONTH is pulled straight from my Halloween playlist on Spotify.

Found a second album that deserves it.

Bonus Song: Linkin Park - Papercut

From the 2000 album Hybrid Theory

24 years ago, on this day in 2000, Linkin Park released the album Hybrid Theory, one of the most successful and influential albums of all time.
