All Time Favorites #3: Song

[thealmighty]

Simple. Just post what your favorite all-time song is. Can add in HM (honorable mention) if you like.


My favorite is Tiny Dancer by Elton John. Every time I burn a CD (which I haven't done in some time), it is the last song I put on.

HM: too many to mention

[WVUFAN]

"Eyes of a Stranger" by Queensryche

HM: "Trust" by Megadeth

[Lorena]

Wow, 2 at most? That's really tough but let's see:

#1 - Pantera's "Hollow" - any song that starts off slow and ends with some sick guitar riffs kicks ass

HM - Metallica's "One" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIAcMtXZkjg)- see above

Rock on biatches :D http://talkmusic.org/images/smilies/headbang.gif

[MrBug708]

Dragostea by Ozone

[Wasabiak]

Hmmm.....This is a tough one.

I'll go with Rush--Tom Sawyer (Neil Peart, best rudimental/rock drummer ever)

HM--Van Halen--And the cradle will rock

[Johnny Slick]

"The Goodbye Look" by Donald Fagen

HM - "Audrey Hepburn Complex" by P5

[Franklinnoble]

My favorite is Tiny Dancer by Elton John. Every time I burn a CD (which I haven't done in some time), it is the last song I put on.



Gay.

[scooper]

Led Zepplin-Since I've Been Loving You.

HM- Pink Floyd-Shine on You Crazy Diamond

Sidenote: I never liked Tiny Dancer until seeing Almost Famous. Now I love the song.

[Franklinnoble]

Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash

Life's Been Good by Joe Walsh

(in no particular order)

[Warhammer]

Geez, this is tough...

I would have to say either Scenes From an Italian Restaurant by Billy Joel.

Now, for a first song on an album or CD, I have to go with Bat Out of Hell by Meatloaf.

[Subby]

Three Days - Jane's Addiction

[st.cronin]

Bad Dream by Tricky

"They tried to bust me but they don't have enough caps
I dipped, dived, slipped, slid, they missed me
I had to move quick or they was bound to get me
One bullet grazed me, that didn't faze me
What could I say? I was havin' a fucked up day."

[Hurst2112]

I'd have to go with '2112' by Rush (of course)

HM: 'In the Light' Zepp

[duckman]

Walk - Pantera

HM - B.Y.O.B. - System of a Down

[Eaglesfan27]

Zombie by the Cranberries.


HM - Sing for the Moment by Eminem

[Johnny93g]

Where The Streets Have No Name- U2

[Ryche]

Cowboys from Hell - Pantera

HM - Ghost Love Score - Nightwish (probably too recent to call my alltime favorite yet.
Jet City Woman - Queensryche

[Lorena]

Walk - Pantera

The whole "Vulgar Display of Power" CD has a bunch of awesome songs, ditto, one of my alltime favorites.

HM - B.Y.O.B. - System of a Down

I was considering a System of a Down song and this among one of them.

Great choices duckman :)

Cowboys from Hell - Pantera

Yup, another favorite. The whole CD along with "Far Beyond Driven" are my favorites.

[corbes]

Los Lobos -- "When the Circus Comes to Town"

HM: Neil Young -- "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere"

The answer would have been different earlier this morning. I'm just too fickle for an all-time favorite song.


Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash


Good choice.

[Vince]

Deep Blue Something -- Breakfast at Tiffany's

Honorable Mention: Iron Maiden -- Wasted Years

Yeah, my musical taste is a little diverse.

[cthomer5000]

"I Just Threw Out The Love Of My Dreams" - Weezer (when they were good)

[Huckleberry]

"I'll Be There For You" - Bon Jovi

[Karlifornia]

"I Just Threw Out The Love Of My Dreams" - Weezer (when they were good)

Nice pick. Probably the last Weezer song I was expecting to see here.

Red Hot Chili Peppers- Under The Bridge

(HM)Radiohead-Paranoid Android

[QuikSand]

Radiohead's Creep

[Buccaneer]

Pride (In the Name of Love) - U2

[Franklinnoble]

Radiohead's Creep

Good song, but too emo for an ATF...

[path12]

Really depends on the day. Today:

Watching the Detectives -- Elvis Costello

HM: Ohio Air Show Plane Crash -- Joe Henry

[WVUFAN]

Honorable Mention: Iron Maiden -- Wasted Years


Good choice. That's a great song.

[Joe]

Aerosmith - Dream On

HM: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

[st.cronin]

Radiohead's Creep

Definitely gets an honorable mention from me. That C to Cm sends chills down my spine every time.

[sabotai]

Overkill - Front Line Assembly (Live Wired version)

[Hurst2112]

is it just me or does everybody look at the answers people are giving and go 'what?!'

very good mix of songs...but very different tastes.

[KWhit]

Gay.

Very Christian of you.

[duckman]

Great choices duckman :)

Thank you, DC. :)

Both of your songs are excellent choices. One is my favorite Metallica song. I came very close to naming it as my favorite. I'm a HUGE Pantera fan as well. I can never get enough of their music.

[Lorena]

NP! Great minds think alike ;)

One of my stations on Pandora (http://www.pandora.com/) is "Pantera Radio" and they play some pretty nifty songs from bands I never heard of. A Metallica song will sneak in every now and then. I'm listening to Metallica's "Unforgiven" right now. Not exactly Pantera-like, but still a really cool song.

[timmae]

my ATF is "My friend Peter" by Alkaline Trio

HM would be "Umass" by the Pixies

[MJ4H]

Saturday in the Park - Chicago

HM: Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel

[thealmighty]

Gay.

Does it say anywhere that I asked for any opinion, douchebag?

Do I care if you don't like it if I am gay?

[AgustusM]

"Mama Tried" - Merle Haggard

[wbonnell]

"Nutshell" by Alice in Chains (especially the unplugged version)

[ISiddiqui]

"Heartbreaker" - Led Zeppelin

HM: "Seven Nation Army" - White Stripes
HM2 (had to): "Supersonic" - Oasis

[Vince]

Good choice. That's a great song.

Yeah, I love it. Then again, I am pretty hung up on anything Maiden has ever done. I always liked Wasted Years, but I never really appreciated it until a friend's band started covering the song a few years ago. They did a pretty killer version of it.

[mckerney]

"King's Crossing" - Elliott Smith

HMs: "I Don't Want What You've Got (Goin On)" and "The Boat Song (We're Getting Loaded)" - The Ike Reilly Assassination
