I know it is cliche, but mine has to be Stairway.

I heard it on the way to work today and it put me in a good mood.

If I'm in the right state of mind, hearing it can give me goosebumps.

Not trying to be a GD hanger onner or anything like that, but that was the first song that popped into my head. Some of the Beetles songs are up there. Have to give this one some thought.

No offense, but I'm not sure you can like a band or song unless you were actually a part of the band.

Bootlicks.

I agree with MoTown

Glenn

You guys suck, this thread should be epic.

Other favorites of mine that just fall short of Stairway:

Elvis- Little Sister
Elvis- In the ghetto
The Cult- Love Removal Machine
Danzig- End of Time
Concrete Blonde- Dance Along the Edge
The Sister of Mercy- This Corrosion
U2- Silver and Gold
Johnny Cash/June Carter Cash- Jackson
Teenage Fanclub- Neil Jung

Technically, this thread cannot be epic and you just destroyed it. Everyone is to post one, singular "song." Not songs. You're gahbage.

That means everyone would post once, and that takes deep time and thought, you shitpack. After that, they shan't post another favorite song. Therefore, this thread may not be epic.

By the way, MY favorite song (even though it isn't) is "Mother" by Danzig. ;)

Will I finally be "made" now?

I'll go with Here Comes The Sun, on the theory that it was the first song that came into mind when I read this. If I think about it, I'm sure I'll come up with songs I like just as much, but I doubt that I'd come up with songs I like more.

"Here Comes the Sun" is a good choice, Mxy

Stairway is of course up there. I've always loved Thunder Underground by Ozzie, Outlaw Torn by Metallica and Sweet Child of Mine by GNR for their guitar work as well.

I can never hear enough "Drift Away" (though I like the UK version a little better with the duet), "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Shook me all night long"

Those are always good.

What? No "I'm a Slave 4 U" ?

Tahoe
02-27-2008, 12:29 PM
The allman brothers did some good stuff too. Jess, etc. Feel good stuff.

Deciding on a single song the beetles made would be tough. They have so many hits they'd prolly have to be my fav band of all time.

Love this one...sucks just waiting for the 2-3 minute mark where McCartney starts getting funky wid it.

I'm surprised I haven't heard any "Blackbird" for the Beatles. Definitely one of my favorites. I really like Achilles' Last Stand for Zeppelin. God, I could name 100.

Tahoe
02-27-2008, 10:43 PM
another song I really like from the beetles is Blackbird

Timone
02-27-2008, 11:50 PM
Listening to "Over The Hills and Far Away" by Zeppelin right now. This one is up there as well.

When I was like 16, Operation Ivy - Bad Town (Really the whole album) was my favorite song.

Pearl Jam "Black"
Temple of the Dog "Hunger Strike"

Good taste.

Neil Diamond - Solitary Man
Nice.

REM - Rockville
Excellent!

Rush - Red Sector A
Ooooooh, you were doing so well there.

Glenn
02-29-2008, 09:55 AM
Rush is one of those love them or hate them bands.

I think the entire "Grace Under Pressure" album is incredible.

Timone
02-29-2008, 09:56 AM
Almost everyone I know likes Rush.

Everyone = my mom.

You know...I like a little bit of Rush too...

Big Swami
02-29-2008, 03:18 PM
I was 13 years old and playing Intellivision in my friend's basement and listening to Rush when he broke out Double Nickels On The Dime by The Minutemen. The heavens opened and an army of avenging angels seized my Rush LP and flung it out the window. "Listen thou not to such crappy prog rock," said the angels. "The LORD thy god hast commanded thee to go out and buy a Black Flag record tomorrow. Also, throw away your Dungeons & Dragons playset and learn how to talk to girls, Poindexter."

Glenn
02-29-2008, 04:58 PM
A couple of the finest musicians on the planet in that band.

Geddy is incredible on the bass, especially if you throw in that he's often playing bass pedals with his feet whilst playing keyboard with his hands.

And you can't say enough about Neal Peart on drums. Dude is awesome.

Uncle Mxy
03-01-2008, 10:06 AM
I wouldn't leave Lifeson out of the picture. He has serious chops, and his instrumental soundtrack stuff outside of Rush is more listenable than what Rush is doing these days (though I haven't heard much of their very latest stuff). I saw them in concert in the 80s at Joe Louis... an awesome show.

I'll probably get ragged on a bit for this one, but John Mellencamp's "I need a lover" always puts me in a good mood, as does "Pink Houses".

Robert Plant's "Ship of Fools" is up there for me, too.
