    For the love of god no! Just no!
    Aqua - Barbie Girl

    Solid choice. More of a Dr Jones or Turn Back Time man myself.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Why do people use the word "rift". I assume you meant to say riff! :P
    Although there was a wee bit of a rift between axl and slash at that stage.

    I cant stop listening to Tear for Fears, Everybody Wants To Rule The World at the mo!


    Why couldnt I be young in the 80's.............(sighs):(

    Snap...very much a 70's and 80's person...born on the 7th month of 1989. I was cutting it close!

    It would either be I wish It Would Rain Down by Phil Collins, Paradise By The Dashboard Light - Meat Loaf/Steinman, The Rising - Bruce Springsteen or Naked Ride Home - Jackson Browne

    I thought I was the only one. :D
    The young wans seem to be listening to terrible music these days. In fact I can hear two girls singing "Jizz in my Pants" in the distance!

    Dont mind if i do........:cool:

    That. Song. Rocks.

    That and Don't You Forget About Me also by Tears for Fears. Love the 80s. CLEARLY the best decade for music all things considered.

    I'm going to rise to the bait and plug the two obvious answers, "Free Bird" (Lynyrd Skynyrd) and "Stairway to Heaven" (Led Zeppelin).

    Just to get them out of the way like :)

    White Christmas (nothing to do with the aryan brotherhood)

    That's if you base your decision on sales and on the number of people who have covered it.:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,355 ✭✭✭dyl10


    Bob Dylan and Neil Young have a few contenders.

    How about Fast Car by Tracey Chapman?

    Anyone else think that the Music forum is turning into Q magazine. There seems to be a new Best.... thread every day. :D

    Evocative lyrics. Most memorable melody. That piano roll part in the middle George Martin played. Best sentiment in a song.

    My bad! Don't know why I typed that.

    I'm always reluctant to use the word "best" especially when talking about music, as that's in the "ears" of the beholder. ;) Two of my all time favourite songs however, would be "Honosty" by Billy Joel and "Something" by the Beatles.
