Just curious. Which song do you love the most and why?

too many, man. too many to pick one. but here's the first one that popped into my head.
"so says i," the shins: brilliant lyrics, catchy tune, the shins are just about one of the best bands going.

ENZYTE THEME SONG!

w00t! gets stuck in your head so badly...it clubs away all your other favorite songs!

Can it be a song from a commercial? If so, then definitely the Gofer Cakes song! It's hilarious! :p

I can't honestly pick one... It changes like every day. Scratch that, every hour. But damn, Colodia, you hit it on the head for this hour. I need to get me some of that stuff.

Past and Pending.
my second favorite song from them. then saint simon.

'Stairway to Heaven.' This requires no further explanation.

'American Pie' and 'Desperado' also deserve honorable mention for holding slots two and three respectively.

As of right now: Bukowski by Modest Mouse

Sorry, I'm an avid fan.

I'll forgive you, but I don't know if god will. . .

:P

I'll forgive you, but I don't know if god will. . .

:P
nah, it's cool, i'm best buds with god. i call him up and i'm like "yo, what we doin' today god" and he's all "meet me at 7-11 for a slurpee, dawg" and i'm like "that's chill, bro".

It's a toss-up between Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's "Ohio" (I love the back story, and it's a cool song) and The Door's "Riders on the Storm" (fabulous writing and beautiful) :D

'Stairway to Heaven.' This requires no further explanation.


This one too... now that's a song!

Any good Beatles or Doors.

I can't pick just one.. but my two favorite bands are

#1 Pink Floyd

#2 The Beatles (But only from Sgt Peppers Loney Hearts Club Band on, not their really early stuff) )

Either Stairway to Heaven, or Two Step by Dave Matthews.

Any one that picks "Stairway To Heaven" I want to shoot..lol

It also means that you surely must be under 20..lol :D

I smell cloth-ear.

On second thought, anyone who does not like Stairway to Heaven I want to bludgeon to death with a Polish sausage.

Listen, when I went to school in the 70's and early 80's you couldn't go to a dance where Stairway to Heaven wasn't the last song at EVERY dance. I too use to like it, till they beat it to death. They have a habit of doing that to good music. That's why I hate it now.

Same as I like Dire Straits, but if I ever hear "Money For Nothing" again, it will be too soon.

I gotcha. I take it, however, that you understand my passion for Stairway.

um, no!

Stairway rocks, and always will

Led Zeppelin - The Complete Studio Recording was the best $120 I have ever spent. By the way Steph, that would be about $160 Canadian dollars :)

um, no!

Stairway rocks, and always will

Led Zeppelin - The Complete Studio Recording was the best $120 I have ever spent. By the way Steph, that would be about $160 Canadian dollars :)

Amen.

Also, 'Behind Blue Eyes', 'Sympathy for the Devil', and 'Moonlight Mile'.

um, no!

Stairway rocks, and always will

Let me ask you that again in 10 years..lol

Hey, don't get me wrong, I love Zeppelin, have just about every thing they ever did. However I don't believe Stairway to Heaven was their best song and as said, it got played to death. So now I turn it if it comes on the radio, or skip over it if I'm listening to Zeppelin.

I was not alive when Stairway was being played to death, so I still have the ability to enjoy it for what it is: The greatest fucking song this planet has ever seen!

really though, you cannot go wrong with Led, anything off of Led Zeppelin IV kicked ass.

Also some of my Led Zeppelin favorites:
When the Levee Breaks
The Battle of Evermore
Gallows Pole
Custard Pie
Dazed and Confused
Whole Lotta Love
Kashmir
All of My Love
and the list could go on for eternity.

I am also a big fan of the Jimmy Page and Robert Plant album "Walking into Clarksdale"

Also Heartbreaker and Thank You off of II, and The Rover off of Physical Graffiti.

Original Jungle Sound - Adam F(1) (http://www.redeyerecords.co.uk/sounds/cat4683.asf)

EDITED: Okay...it's broken into 4 parts. Should work now.

how did I let heartbreaker and thank you slip my mind???

i feel retarded now

"We Like to Party" by the Vengaboys ...

(Hint: The Old Man dances to it in those Six Flags commercials)

*snicker*

Eh...that's song is trite.

Good music. No questions asked. (http://www.bassdrive.com/BassDrive.m3u)

Eh...that's song is trite.

Yep ... and it was a joke.

If I wanted to be serious, I'd have to say: Picking a favorite song is like picking a favorite hair on one's head.

However, I guess I'll have to give a short list of must download:

Working Class Hero John Lennon
Goin' to California Led Zeppelin
Tiny Dancer Elton John
God of Thunder Kiss
I Wanna Be Sedated The Ramones
I Walk the Line Johnny Cash
The Way Fastball

That's all for now.

And those are better than the Vengaboys?

Edited By Stephistan.

'Tiny Dancer' is a great song, as is 'Levon.'

And those are better than the Vengaboys?
...

Well ... it's all mood dependant, I suppose ... I could just list my entire music library ...

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

Umm, it's against the rules to change my words and quote it as if I said it. I know you're joking, so I'll let it go, but please don't do it again.

Thank You.

This Song Has No Title is my favorite Elton John song.

Well...I was just making your statement more accurate. Not that your taste of music sucks, it's just that that music doesn't suck. It may not fit your personal taste for music, but that doesn't make it bad music. You called it bad music.

Okay, I'll agree to that. It's not my personal cup of tea.

pink floyd - wish you were here

pink floyd - wish you were here

Ah yes, now there is a great tune!

Oh and lets not leave out Supertramp! :P

I like 'Breathe' and 'Eclipse' personally.

Oh and lets not leave out Supertramp! :P


Ah yeah ....

What's the story,
I wish I'd been a minstrel,
Just think of all the maidens I could call,
Oh-I wish I'd been a gypsy,
Then maybe I could read the crystal ball,
'Cause surrounded by these walls,
Just makes me feel uneasy.

I don't have any one favourite song. There's too many good ones to pick from. I could probably do you a list of my top 20, if you like. Anyway, my current play-it-til-the-neighbours-call-the-cops favourite song is She's Gonna Blow Your House Down by U2.

'Stairway to Heaven.' This requires no further explanation.

Yes it does. It requires quite a bit infact. That's the most boring Zep song...EXPLAIN!

Maria-Rage Against the Machine, it eloquently describes the death of a mexican sweatshop worker killed by her supervisor. Track 8 on Battle of Los Angeles.

Yes it does. It requires quite a bit infact. That's the most boring Zep song...EXPLAIN!

*LOL* :D

Yes it does. It requires quite a bit infact. That's the most boring Zep song...EXPLAIN!

The genius of the work is the intricacy of the tune, and the amazing lyrics. It's technically three songs in one. This song also has the greatest guitar solo ever played. If you don't have the patience for it, though, then you probably won't get it.

pink floyd - wish you were here

Oh man. That is THE most addictive song to play on guitar. I learnd to play it a month ago, and I go ape shit if I don't play it at least a million times a day.

But my current, hip, new, funky, favorite song? Uhhhh...ummmm...torn...between quite a few...one is 'The Scientist' by Coldplay...another is....ohhhh...anything off the Neon Ballroom album by Silverchair. The new Beastie Boys song. 'Idioteque' Radiohead (hell, anything by Radiohead is amazing). And 'I will Survive' the cover by Cake.

Sorry there are so many, but that's only the top. I would feel bad if I left any of them out.

No wonder you don't like Stairway. I shouldn't have wasted my energy in explaining it.

This song also has the greatest guitar solo ever played.

I think some Hendrix fans may disagree with you. :p

Well, that all goes down the crapper if it's boring as hell. The song gets really good at the end, but before that...it's all...keyboards, and acoustics.

Hehe, I find it funny actually, you know any one who picks Stairway to Heaven as the best song of all time is not very old.

Little wing, Bold as Love, and Voodoo Child by Hendrix. Also his cover of All Along the watchtower, which really was a song of its own.

No wonder you don't like Stairway. I shouldn't have wasted my energy in explaining it.

Well, excuuuuuse me! Sorry for making you waste your energy. See, the essence of rock is if it sounds cool, and you want more. It doesn't have to be hard, or complex, it just has to rock.

And Steph is right...Hendrix fan right here...and nothing beats him.

And I was only talking about recent tunes in my fav songs. Too many old ones to name.

Well, that all goes down the crapper if it's boring as hell. The song gets really good at the end, but before that...it's all...keyboards, and acoustics.

So many people would disagree with you. I hereby declare your soul deceased. Anyone who says 'Stairway' is boring, but likes Coldplay is completely out of their mind.

Got a problem with accoustics? Every guitar player knows that mastering the accoustic is the benchmark of a truly talented guitar player.

I agree, the song is dull and overplayed, but don't slam accoustics. :p

Hehe, I find it funny actually, you know any one who picks Stairway to Heaven as the best song of all time is not very old.

True. I have alot of friends who love it. But, it jsut doesn't capture the true soul of Zep.

You're completely wrong. That view of rock, that it has to 'sound cool' is what is killing it. Rock has to express emotion, and has to be played well. The musicians have to have 'talent,' something no one understands anymore. it doesn't have to be complex, but Stairway and Led Zeppelin were complex, and that's what make them great.

So many people would disagree with you. I hereby declare your soul deceased. Anyone who says 'Stairway' is boring, but likes Coldplay is completely out of their mind.

Well, the good thing about Coldplay is that they're songs dont' out stay their welcome. Stairway does.

I used to hate Stairway because I thought it was boring, but now I listened to it alot, and I love it. Don't slam Stairway. It's a work of art.

Are you kidding me? I love acoustics! They sound way better! It's jsut that Zep wasn't an acoustic band though. It would have been amazing if it were an electric song. That's all.

Well, the good thing about Coldplay is that they're songs dont' out stay their welcome. Stairway does.

I guess you're right. At least with Coldplay, they come right out and bore you to death the first time, instead of on two hundredth listen.

True. I have alot of friends who love it. But, it jsut doesn't capture the true soul of Zep.


If I wanted to capture the true soul of Led Zeppelin, I'd throw out "Goin' to California" and back it up with "Dazed and Confused".

Just MHO, though.

Ok, lets throw another band into the mix..

Dr. Hook.. "Carry me, Carrie" and "Sylivas's Mother" and the little known tune "Cops 'N Robbers"

Are you kidding me? I love acoustics! They sound way better! It's jsut that Zep wasn't an acoustic band though. It would have been amazing if it were an electric song. That's all.

It was in fact played on a 12 string... you probably knew that.. but in case you didn't :)

Excuse me?

Thank You, What is and What Should Never Be, Bring it on Home, In my Time of Dying, Bron YR Aur, Down by the Seaside, Ten Years Gone (Another Favorite, second to Stairway), Boogie with Stu, Black Country Woman, Going to California to name a few of the acoustics.

Ahhaha ... "Cover of the Rolling Stone" makes me giggle every time.

I used to hate Stairway because I thought it was boring, but now I listened to it alot, and I love it. Don't slam Stairway. It's a work of art.

I'm exactly the opposite. I used to love it. Now it's...just another boring song. Though I'll hand it to you that it is a work of art. All music is.

It was in fact played on a 12 string... you probably knew that.. but in case you didn't :)

I'll agree that the last two minutes are the best, but it's because the whole song builds up to the famous, furious guitar solo, and the amazing riffing in the last verse. It builds from a finger picked guitar line, and gradually gets more complex, and ends up right where it started.

Ahhaha ... "Cover of the Rolling Stone" makes me giggle every time.

Yeah, I have a great DVD of them playing in Germany in 1972, it's wicked. All bent out of their minds. It was suppose to be for a TV special, wasn't released until 2001..and only on DVD. *LOL*

It was in fact played on a 12 string... you probably knew that.. but in case you didn't :)

Didn't really think of it before. But now that I listen to it (I'm listening to it right now) it's a bit....I'm stupid. Sorry. I'm stupid. But it's still boring.

(and to a previous post, "Dazed and Confused" is one of the TOP Zep songs EVER! I love it!)

But it's still boring, admitedly the last few minutes are damn good.

Favorite Eagles song... "The Last Resort" then maybe "Wasted Time"

maroon 5 ne1? i like "this love"

Favorite Eagles song... "The Last Resort" then maybe "Wasted Time"

wasted Time is damn good. I love Bernie Leadon's banjo in Take it Easy, though.

Rolling Stones: Shine a Light, Sympathy for the Devil, Salt of the Earth, Let it Loose, Moonlight Mile, Can't you Hear me Knockin', Brown Sugar, Tumbling Dice

I guess you're right. At least with Coldplay, they come right out and bore you to death the first time, instead of on two hundredth listen.

Awwww...you'll learn to love it. You can dance to it.

Iron Maiden--- "Hallowed Be Thy Name"

Also, anything from Who's Next, and 'We're not Gonna Take It' off of Tommy.

hate cordplay with a vengance.grrrrrrrrr.......

maroon 5 ne1? i like "this love"

They're alright I suppose. But I wouldn't say my fav.

Final thought: Stairway to Heaven can never be beaten, no matter how hard you try.

maroon 5 ne1? i like "this love"

umm in a word no? the song i can just about listen to but i dont c how it could be nebodys favourite song.

I say the live acoustic version of Everlong by the legendary Foos :cool:

Iron Maiden--- "Hallowed Be Thy Name"

A man with taste! have you heard the covers of that by Cradle of Filth and Children of Bodom? They are SHWEET!

my favourite song ever has prob. got to be aretha franklin respect. that woman has lungs!

wasted Time is damn good. I love Bernie Leadon's banjo in Take it Easy, though.

Jackson Browne actually wrote "Take It Easy" David Lindley played a mean slide guitar. Don Henley kept asking if Jackson wanted them to finish it, Jackson kept saying no, in the end he let them finish it and call it their own. Jackson felt that they would do more justice to the song because of the bank of voices. The rest is history. They all hung out together as young dudes, Jackson was the first to get a record deal, the Eagles actually came after him.. but my favorite song by Jackson Browne is easily "Lives in the Balance"

"Kids of the Black Hole" by the Adolescents or "Lounge Act" by Nirvana. I felt I had to say my piece.

Final thought: Stairway to Heaven can never be beaten, no matter how hard you try.

Final Thought: I strongly disagree, but let's jsut leave it there, because there's no point is complaining to each other how much our music sucks...COLDPLAY! YAYAYAYAYAYA!

difinitely "WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE"

difinitely "WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE"

hmmm....not bad...personally I'm not a huge Guns n' Roses fan, but I think it's a funny song.

hmmm....not bad...personally I'm not a huge Guns n' Roses fan, but I think it's a funny song.

For some reason that song's lyrics remind me of Jethro Tull..who I also love!

A man with taste! have you heard the covers of that by Cradle of Filth and Children of Bodom? They are SHWEET!
Haven't the Children of Bodom cover...
And apart from the "motherfucker" they added to the lyrics, the Cradle of Filth one offers a unique perspective.

Yeah I've also heard the Iced Earth cover of Hallowed Be Thy Name.... also pretty good.

However no cover has ever come close to the original... as far as bands covering Maiden go...

I recall being about 14 and I use to listen over and over again to "Run To The Hills" by Iron Maiden.

Gotta love the epic feel of this Led Zeppelin song. I'd actually put it as tied with Stairway as my favorite.

another great is "NO RAIN " by blind melon

Battle of Evermore is a good song.. :cool:

I am gunna have to say "In my Darkest Hour"

Megadeth Rules :sniper: :mp5:

I will choose Lough Erin Shore by the Corrs

u have forgot the best band ever... Metallica.
my favorite song is off course Nothing Else Matters

The End by the Doors

u have forgot the best band ever... Metallica.
my favorite song is off course Nothing Else Matters


.....And "Fade To Black"

Haven't the Children of Bodom cover...

Too true. If the CoB lyrics were...ummm...understandable...it would have been close. But I agree. the original is SUPREME!

I'd probably say either "Take the Long Way Home" and "Dreamer" by Supertramp are my favourites. It depends on my mood.

.....And "Fade To Black"

Uhhh...hmmm...I liked the first two Metallica albums. That's about it

Uhhh...hmmm...I liked the first two Metallica albums. That's about it

Yeah well I only liked two of their songs..lol "Nothing Else Matters" and "Fade to Black" ..

Yeah well I only liked two of their songs..lol "Nothing Else Matters" and "Fade to Black" ..

Yeah, now they're just an image...that makes noise.

Off to bed. g'night!

There are so many good songs, so I'm going to start with classical music:

Mozart Für Elisé and Vivaldi Seasons + many many more

nirvana's cover of "where did you sleep last night" is pretty chilling. Uh, radiohead - karma police. Anything by bright eyes. Yes, and lets not forget Anal **** - "311 fucking sucks."

any Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead or Weezer song is fine by me.. :cool:

Mozart Für Elisé

That'd be Beethoven.

Personally, I don't understand why every time there's a topic resembling this one on the forum the same type of people start a discussion about who's favourite band is better, who sucks, and why their opinion is the most valid one. And it's always about either heavy metal or hard rock. People who like, for instance, Coldplay are beign laughed at. I think that the most catchy tunes out there are probably the ones from the eighties. Some of those song are almost impossible to get out of your heads, like Girs Just Wanna Have Fun by Cindy Lauper or Like A Virgin by Madonna. I mean, they are trite and tacky and so on, but are a lot catchier than, let's say, Wish You Were Here. And another thing - stating that Stairway To Heaven is you favourite song of all time is a bit lame because that song is a classic, just like Wish You Were Here or Bohemian Rhapsody, etc... Try to be more original. My favourites right about now are Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat from Songs Of Love And Hate and Tom Wats's I Hope That I Don't Fall In Love With You from Closing Time. Also, I am a huge fan of Nick Cave and R.E.M., but I don't have time to list not even a small fraction of my favourite songs right now.

That'd be Beethoven.

They both did it :)

Touch of Grey (Grateful Dead)

Hmm. I don't have one favourite song...depends on the mood i'm in.

Right now i'd say X.Y.U by the Smashing Pumpkins.

They all hung out together as young dudes, Jackson was the first to get a record deal, the Eagles actually came after him.. but my favorite song by Jackson Browne is easily "Lives in the Balance"

Jackson Browne: Rock me on the Water, Doctor My Eyes, Jamaica Say You Will, Under the Falling Sky (great bongos), Late for the Sky, The Late Show, Before the Deluge, The Road, The Load Out/Stay, The Pretender, and Here Come Those Tears Again. All excellent. I don't like the original version of Take It Easy. I prefer the Eagle's version.

Glenn Frey lived in the apartment above Browne's in California. He heard him working on Jamaica Say You Will, and went down to listen, and that's when they met. Frey actually wrote the famous "Standin on a corner in Winslow Arizona" verse of Take It Easy, and Jackson gave him credit as co-writer. All of those California rockers of the seventies pretty much knew each other.

Favorite song is Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd but I really like Forever Young by Alphaville, too....

Carry Me-The Levellers

I'm an Ozzy fan; my favorite song would have to be "I just want you"

nah, it's cool, i'm best buds with god. i call him up and i'm like "yo, what we doin' today god" and he's all "meet me at 7-11 for a slurpee, dawg" and i'm like "that's chill, bro".

Oh, I get it... slurpee/chill...

:p :D :eek: :rolleyes: :headbang: Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

'Stairway to Heaven.' This requires no further explanation.

Is this what you get combine these two messages (http://wavthis.com/S/seven11.zip)?

Björk - Pagan Poetry

The Gathering - Nighttime Birds

Anyone else like these songs?

I can't pick just one.. but my two favorite bands are

#1 Pink Floyd

#2 The Beatles (But only from Sgt Peppers Loney Hearts Club Band on, not their really early stuff) )

Pink Floyd I can agree with, but I think the Beatles are way overhyped. For example, Rolling Stone magazine recently came out with a list of the 500 greatest albums of all time (http://www.rockonthenet.com/archive/2003/rs500albums1.htm)... and four of the top ten were by the Beatles. While I won't deny that they were very talented, I think that's a bit too much. Especially since, IMHO, The Wall, Final Cut, and Momentary Lapse of Reason beat any Beatles album.

For pure eccentricity, I don't think anything beats Pink Floyd's "Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict". I can't think of a song that even comes close.
But my favorite song of all time has to be Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World".

I'm a hopeless romantic (but evil..don't ask how it works)...

So,for my girl and I, Everything by Lifehouse.

For me, Believe by Disturbed.

Both describe how I feel.

in my life ... the beatles
crazy ... patsy cline
mona lisa ... nat king cole
what a wonderful world ... louis armstrong

At the moment,
It is "Guns don't kill people,rappers do"
by Welsh rap group(!)
Goldie lookin' chain

the song that gets stuck in my head is that damn "milkshake" by kelis. i don't even like hip hop, damnit.

Gah! Just seeing it in print gets it stuck my head, it's SO catchy. Even though I hate it, and I only know it from the radio and my one friend.

My favorite song changes a lot, but right now it's "Zombie" by the Cranberries. But there's so much good stuff out there.
