The Best Song Ever!

[Vigid]

In your opinions, what do all of you think is the BEST song ever? I know that this question is kind of hard to answer, but I would like to see everyone's taste in music. Please, no talking shit and arguing over the songs, just simply put the song name, artist, then a little about it.

This is a hard question for me, but I think that one of the best songs there is is "Rock the Casbah" by The Clash. If you are open minded about music and like the 80's you would probably like it. I don't think its the very best song ever created, but its one of em.

[Dude Kaboom]

'Castles Made Of Sand' by; Jimi Hendrix

[familyguyfreak]

the best song ever would have to be either atwa or forest by soad, and if you dont think so then you can go fuck your dog

[ypsidan04]

You expect us to pick just one song?

[S10000]

Hey Jude

[Vigid]

Hell yeah, Jimi Hendrix, can't forget about him, my personal favorites by Jimi are of course, Purple Haze and Foxy Lady.......... hey familyguyfreak, sorry, but I've never heard of the band you mentioned, what kind of music do they play?

Oh and ypsidan04, just put any songs that are your favorite, It is very difficult to say just one song..........

You really consider a system of a down song The Best song ever?. I mean, i like other bands besides the beatles, but period, the best song ever has got to be Hey Jude.

Maybe "Learning to fly" by Tom petty might be number 2

[Vigid]

Oh I see, System of a Down isn't one of my favorites but I listen to them occasionally, and I like the Prison Song. Hey Jude is a good song too. I like "I wanna hold your hand" by the Beatles.
I will always like The Clash a lot, they were inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame I think last year.

[Madness]

Tribute to the best song in the world, tenacious d.

[brainkandy87]

Hmmm...Lithium by Nirvana is one of my favorites, but I'd have to say Yesterday by The Beatles.

[j.elohim]

Freebird (extended version) By Lynyrd Skynyrd, that solo kills me everytime

[stevib]

arrrhhh just one? mine keeps changing....but ive found one i never get bored of

secret smile by semisonic. go listen to it.

[osama_ben_hur]

voodoo chile

the long version on electric ladyland, not the slight return one.

Well’ the night I was born
Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red
The night I was born
I swear the moon turned a fire red
Well my poor mother cried out "lord’ the gypsy was right!"
And I seen her’ fell down right dead
’Have mercy’

[Mozz]

I could never pick a fav. song, but I would say pretty much anything from the Red Hot Chili Peppers kicks ass.. I'm sure there are better things out there, but I grew up listening to them... and Anthony is from my home town... It goes to show that you can get out of here somehow...


I'd also have to say that there are some kick ass songs by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers out there, but I could never pick a favorite

[BigMattTheHobo]

"So What" by Miles Davis.

I have no words to describe the greatness of this song. But it gives me a musical induced orgasm each time I hear it.

By far the greatest song ever made.

GO BUY "KIND OF BLUE"!!!!

[SickGirl]

Would have to be a Bob Marley song. They always cheer me up. No Woman No Cry. Or Is This Love. It's impossible to pick just one.

[Sketcher]

My favorite song. Hmmm... can't pick just one so I'll just say any song by Disturbed.

[Coven66]

tears in heaven - eric clapton. so meaningful and moving

[Royalanarchist]

Superman by Eminem







not really, i gotta go with coven on this one and say tears in heaven.....i also really like what it's like by everlast, its got some sentimental meanings behind it

[Madmartigan]

diamonds in the sky or comfortably numb, Pink Floyd

[Bamapimp334]

FREEBIRD!!!

How could you even "not really" about that? That's not even the best Eminem song if you ask me

[Madmartigan]

Hey, sorry. Stacy's Mom sucks. You got it.

I'm not saying its good cause the Grammys thought it was good, I'm saying it's good cause I think its good - and the Grammys is gravy. I've heard of 313 but haven't heard their music. Never heard of the others.

But have you heard of any of these:

Audiovent, Simon Says, Drowning Pool, Seether, Finger Eleven, Edgewater, Chevelle?? I don't just listen to well known bands that are always on cable TV.

Staind is cool, I just got their third album, but they're not my favorite band.

OMG. YOU DID NOT JUST SAY 313 IS A BAND..........THOSE ARE SONGS FUCKNUGGET. And i have heard of the bands you mentioned and they all suck, do you know why? because they all sound alike!

And I like the type of music that they all do. You think that not because they sound the same, but because you don't like that type of music.

Sorry, I was thinking of 311. THAT is a band.

[Madmartigan]

i dont like music that sounds the same as thousands of other bands. "hi im in a band" "cool, what kind of music" "uhh, i dont know we sing about being hardasses" "oh so you're a fag?" "ya, basically"

[Sarilla]

My favourite song would at the moment...would probably be Megalomaniac By Incubus. However I change my favourite song quite frequently.

Yeah, that song is cool. I don't really like Incubus in general, but that song is nice.

[jdust629]

How can you pick one best song? Oh, well. Right now I would have to say Stairway to Heaven or While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

[oopyman]

Dogs by Pink Floyd. A seventeen minute masterpiece. I love every second of the song. It's ten minutes into it, and I think the song is about to end. I check the time left in the song on Kazaa, and see there's still 7 more minutes of this. That's happened many times, and that always makes me happy. Incredible lyrics by Waters, and incredible vocals by Gilmour. This song is absolutely perfect.

For best instrumental, I pick Baby Blue Shuffle in D Minor by Pink Floyd. No one here has probably heard that song, but it's amazing. It feels like it's a lot longer than just 4 minutes.

Nice songs man.

God...one song?!?? Christ. I'm stuck between three songs...Some Birds by Sam Roberts, Prague by Damien Rice, or Obstacle 1 by Interpol. I'll have to say Prague though. The way that the soft parts of the song blend with the higher ones is absolutely mind-blowing, and the amount of emotion that he pours into his singing...it's incredible.

[MasterSplinter]

I would have to say "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin.

[steeler]

too hard to pick one song but at the moment either smells like teen spirit by nirvana and franco unamerican by NoFx

[OwlvOmit]

The best song is The Glass Prison by Dream Theater

[Coach_lmc]

Duhhh
Can anyone say "Stairway To Heaven" by Led Zeppelin

[Big D]

Tribute to the best song in the world, tenacious d.HA Ha, Jack Black rules!

But seriously...just one? Gotta be One by Metallica. Its got it all, or at least everything I want...

[big_jay62]

i can not pick a favorite but one that comes to mind right now would have to be, Tracy Chapman-Fast car.

[srfc4life]

metallica - orion

[EatMYAte]

I think like Brainkandy said, Lithium by Nirvana. Why do you like Lithium, Brain? I dont know why i like it, its weird. Maybe you know why I like it and we might like it for the same reason!! I dont know but its just weird.....Why would i like a song about having a nervous breakdown so much?....

[S10000]

Earlier on in this thread I said Hey Jude was the best song, but I'm going to have to add in a song which ties Hey Jude for best. Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. This song......... Oh jesus, I can't describe it. Go listen to it.

[COnor]

best song ever hmmmm the clash london calling i do enjoy but man ever notice that ever beatles song sounds like ther on some serious drogues such as umm lsd and strawberry fiels its hilarious but w/e oh and on hte jimmi hendrix hting, i seriously ahte jimi hendrix in the song foxy lady he siad like 2 snetencesand hten repeats foxy lady 52 times to complete the 3 minute song...but thatsm y opininon but the guy has some serious skillso n the guitar no doubt, Oh and id liek to sya family guy is by far the best cartoon ever made screw the simpsons its staggering right now its going no where family ugy was non stops laught but it only went on for 3 seasons biut trust me it coudl ahve went further and the simpsons started getting good from season 6-10 after that no way.
