    Okay,just wondering what everyone in the C&H Forum's favorite song is.
    Note this is no 'soundtrack to your angst' thread,any song you like,and if you like say why you like it,etc....

    Also you only have one pick,i.e. no 'ohhh i love two',choose one.
    Any Youtube links etc. Much appreciated :D

    Mine is Voyager By Daft Punk,just love the beat+video.

    I'll never be able to pick a single outstanding favourite song. Having such great taste precludes me from blinkering my musical senses :)

    Gotta agree. I could never pick one song. It changes constantly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth is my favourite album ever. That's not going to change easily, but no one song off that album would be my favourite ever. I don't think I could pick a favourite song ever though. If pushed for an answer it'd be 2112 by Rush I guess, but that's just because that's the last time I consciously decided a song was my favourite ever and it was over 2 years ago. I've gotten into much more music since then.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,686 ✭✭✭Kersmash


    I can only stand about 2 minutes of Rush before my head caves in due to your mans voice(Geddy Lee?). They're instrumentals are alright though.

    If I was pushed I'd say the EP See You In Another City by Blakfish is nigh on perfect. I can't find a flaw with any track. I love it.

    Not a fan of high pitched male vocals? Personally it's one of my favourite vocal styles. I love Geddy Lee, Axl Rose, Shannon Hoon etc.

    Rush's instrumentals are awesome. YYZ would be a close contender with 2112. It's probably the most perfect rock instrumental ever.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,196 ✭✭✭Crumble Froo


    easy.

    Incubus - Sick Sad Little World.

    if i could listen to only one song for the rest of my life... this would be it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,931 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster


    Feeder - Just a day

    Picked up a love for it while playing GT3 when I was younger...ahh..brings back memories :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 234 ✭✭FreeFallin


    FreeFallin - Tom Petty

    One of the best

    I don't mind high pitched male voices, it's just something about his voice that annoys me and I can't listen! Can't put my finger on it though.

    GTFO. Geddy Lee is possibly the greatest frontman of all time, after Josh Homme.

    My favourite song would probably be The Spirit Of The Radio by Rush:



    Simply amazing


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,231 ✭✭✭Fad


    Drowning Lessons - My Chemical Romance, my personal favourite song ever off my favourite album :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,001 ✭✭✭ Braxton Echoing Baboon


    Spiders or Escape the Nest by Editors


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 453 ✭✭seamus-2k7

    Josh Homme is so awesome. He couldn't get any more stylish/sexy if he tried. Especially in this video



    That'd be up there amongst my favourites.

    The Doors are great :)

    "Roadhouse Blues" is my favourite song by them.

    Close but nowhere near as good as 2112.

    I don't have a favourite of anything at all, it could change too easily.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat


    Forever Young-Alphaphille or Youth Group.

    Search it yourself, lazies!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,231 ✭✭✭Fad


    since this kinda turned in to "I quite like this song thread" I'll post this:



    He maybe old but he still rawks......


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    I can't say I have a favourite song really, I keep going on and off bands all the time. Also I listen to a song I like to death and then don't like it anymore.


  • Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 26,928 Mod ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Sonata Arctica - The Cage



    This has been my favourite song for about 3 years now, just love it :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 529 ✭✭✭rhapsody!
