All Time Favorites #3: Song
 

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

"Eyes of a Stranger" by Queensryche

HM: "Trust" by Megadeth

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"- see above

Rock on biatches :D

Dragostea by Ozone

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

"The Goodbye Look" by Donald Fagen

HM - "Audrey Hepburn Complex" by P5

Gay.

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.

Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash

Life's Been Good by Joe Walsh

(in no particular order)

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.

Three Days - Jane's Addiction

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."

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

HM: 'In the Light' Zepp

Walk - Pantera

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

Zombie by the Cranberries.


HM - Sing for the Moment by Eminem

Where The Streets Have No Name- U2

Cowboys from Hell - Pantera

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

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


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

Great choices duckman :)


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

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.


Good choice.

Deep Blue Something -- Breakfast at Tiffany's

Honorable Mention: Iron Maiden -- Wasted Years

Yeah, my musical taste is a little diverse.

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

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

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

Red Hot Chili Peppers- Under The Bridge

(HM)Radiohead-Paranoid Android

Radiohead's Creep

Pride (In the Name of Love) - U2

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

Really depends on the day. Today:

Watching the Detectives -- Elvis Costello

HM: Ohio Air Show Plane Crash -- Joe Henry

Good choice. That's a great song.

Aerosmith - Dream On

HM: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

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

Overkill - Front Line Assembly (Live Wired version)

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.

Very Christian of you.

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.

NP! Great minds think alike ;)

One of my stations on Pandora 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.

my ATF is "My friend Peter" by Alkaline Trio

HM would be "Umass" by the Pixies

Saturday in the Park - Chicago

HM: Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel

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

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

"Mama Tried" - Merle Haggard

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

"Heartbreaker" - Led Zeppelin

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

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.

"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
