Topic speaks for itself! What is your favourite all time song!

Persephone The past doesn't get any better. The past is not the present or the future.

I have favorite songs by almost every artist or band that I like:
To name a few...
Elton John - Empty Garden
Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water
ABBA - Take A Chance On Me
Bon Jovi - Bed of Roses

But my favorite all time song EVER is Bette Midler's The Rose.

Jayjay "I may be scattered / A little shattered / What does it matter / No one has a fit like I do / I'm the only one that fits you"

Lori You wear guilt like shackles on your feet, like a halo in reverse.

Oooh, good choice Jayjay. Mine is Enjoy the Silence (Depeche Mode too, for anyone who doesn't know).

Cheers, Lori.

I was thinking of setting up a 'Name that Mode Song' in Games, where you quote a line and try to guess which song. But I get the feeling it would be just me and you playing.

PictureOfFlowers "When things are at their darkest, it's a brave man that can kick back and party." - Lt. Tuck Pendleton, Innerspace

I'm gonna have to put a few down I'm afraid.

Some of my all-time favourite songs:

Creep - Radiohead
Seasons in the Sun - Black Box Recorder

And I feel there should be some Manics in there, I just can't pick one song. Maybe Little Baby Nothing or From Despair to Where or Life Becoming a Landslide...

Alan Got a message from the Great Lakes Avengers, They offered me a membership but didn't accept... they're a walking disaster... Just don't make sense at all... the worst heroes of all time, To call thems

I have absolutely loads of faves (to be more accurate songs I like maybe a little too much), but a short list would include:

The Offspring - Million Miles Away, Gone Away, Staring at the Sun
Papa Roach - Between Angels and Insects, She Loves Me Not
R.E.M. - The Great Beyond
Korn - Freak on a Leash, Here To Stay, Thoughtless
Rammstein - Links 2 3 4, Sonne
A - Nothing, Starbucks
The Pogues - Fairytale of New York (Seriously!)
Green Day - Minority
Ozzy Osbourne - Gets Me Through

There are loads more (as I've said) but I'd be sat here on my backside 'till next Crimbo trying to think of 'em all... (/me gets thinking cap on)

I'm one who doesn't have just one, I love so many genres of music, I can't choose just one song to top them all.

I'll name a few:

Art Of Trance-Madagascar
Age Of Love-Age Of Love
Paul Simon-You Can Call Me Al and 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover
Groove Armada-At The River

Whistler "I wonder wonder why the wonder falls. I wonder why the wonder falls on me. I wonder wonder why the wonder falls, with everything I touch and hear and see."

This is a toughie. But I guess my choice is a combination of both the song and the video:-

'Everybody Hurts' - REM

FiveByFive I was being like, sarcastic, or whatever

Far far too hard to name just one, but...

Everlong - Foo Fighters

To name but a few:

Guns & Roses - Sweet Child 'O Mine
Muse - Plug In Baby
Garbage - Shut Your Mouth
Garbage - Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go Go)
Garbage - Stupid Girl
Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas

The List will certainly end up including at least one track off of Let Go by Avril Lavinge

And my all time favourite:

No Doubt - Don't Speak

*Sorry* that I couldn't be more concise.

Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas

You pulling my leg, right? The 'clanging bells of doom' song? The one that goes 'Well, at least thank god it's them, instead of yooooooooooooooooo!'?

Come on! It has to be the worst set of lyrics ever set to a pedestrian piece of music. Tell me you're kidding me mate, please!
