Favorite Song

Nightwish · 22-12-2008 7:24pm

This is easy. Thus far in my life there is only one song, above all, which can be called my favourite. Its epic as f*ck, and when I heard it live, it nearly made me keel over it was so good.

It's impossible to pick just one song, there are so many brilliant ones out there I love!
But this is one of my all time favourites:

From the brilliant Pisces Iscariot album.

thusspakeblixa · 22-12-2008 9:50pm

Hmm... I'll pick a few. It depends on what mood I'm in :P

This is for I'm in my "I am ****ing brilliant" mood-

This is my "wake up"

And for when I'm in a soppy "miss my gf" mood

That song sends a shiver down my spine every time I hear it, it's ****ing amazing.

Atm my favourite song is "Left to Die" by Death, from the album Leprosy -

I'll add a youtube link when I get home.

Finished work ! Woooh !

Feeder - Just a day

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

Funny, that's where I first heard and got to love that song too!

If I had to pick two songs (I can't pick one!) to listen to forever, they would be Under Pressure by Queen/David Bowie:

And... On Every Street by Dire Straits:

Actually, I'd have to pick this too (Beast of Burden by The Stones):

But, then again, these are just some of my favourites, I just couldn't choose to be honest.

If I had to choose just one song, it'd be Better Living Through Chemistry by QOTSA. That'd be my all time favourite I'd say. But other songs/bands come close.

Dream Theater: Honor Thy Father
Rush: Passage to Bangkok
Porcupine Tree: Fear of a Blank Planet
Smashing Pumpkins: Geek USA
Alice in Chains: Angry Chair
Pearl Jam: Given to Fly

Haven't heard of half these songs! :-) I'm more of a pop person! Abba all the way! ;-)
Oh and Take That of course!

Maybe not my favorite but I'd like to share. (bret you got it going on, flight of the conchords)

I like ya be'ed. You've got a good be'ed.

Like everyone's said, I don't have one fixed favourite song, but lately, it's been between What Sarah Said by Death Cab for Cutie and Hljómalind by Sigur Ros, from either Hvarf or Heim.

r Hvarf or Heim.

I just got those two albums, they KICK ASS!
I love the acoustic version of that song from Agaetis Byrjun.
Have you seen the Heima DVD?

Nope, never knew there was one. Worth getting? They're definitely a band on the see-before-I-die list. The albums are so epic I can't imagine what a live show would be like.

Most definitely. You can pick it up in Tower Records for around 20 spot I think.
My Icelandic friend saw them live (lucky bugger),they're mind-bogglingly awesome live I'm told

Dancing in the Moonlight - Thin Lizzy. :cool:

(see also, smashing pumpkins version)

Crumble Froo · 31-12-2008 11:58pm

... but then make sure and see the thin lizzy version again. one of my favourites, that song, but the whole point of it is this celebration of youth, and the freedom and just the small things, it's just so happy and yay, and then billy corgan makes it sound like the worst days of his life! haha, thin lizzy version of it for me every time.

Thunder Road or 4th of July, Asbury Park both by Bruce.
The guy is a hero.

Dave147 · 05-01-2009 3:54am

Not a poster here, but the best song of all time is Enjoy The Silence by Depeche Mode..

I got that album this week, the long silence (I know silence, shocker!) at the end of that song is kinda annoying though

Bubs101 · 05-01-2009 6:46pm

Very very difficult to pick one because a song depends on your mood but Poor Places by Wilco (both versions) is probably my favourite

spoonbadger · 05-01-2009 7:26pm

Smashing Pumpkins - Soma.

And yes, it's difficult to pick one song. So many to choose. Different moods. Different ages etc......But this is still a brilliant track
