Best Song Ever?!

[bhsup]

George Jones - He Stopped Loving Her Today

 

[Death_Machine]

Disposable Heroes by Metallica

You know that Dave Mustaine wrote that, right?

My song is Mandatory Suicide by SLAYER

 

[rhawn]

I Drink Alone - George Thorogood(sp?) and the Destroyers

 

[oagersnap]

IMO, it's "Viðrar vel til loftárása" by Sigur Rós.

 

[Sofista]

Andy Williams, Moon River.

 

[Defiant47]

You know that Dave Mustaine wrote that, right?

I thought he was only there for Kill 'Em All.

My song is Mandatory Suicide by SLAYER

The latest album is pretty good, and it's amazing that they're still going strong.

 

[El_Machinae]

The Lyre Bird, maybe?

 

[Bartleby]

I thought he was only there for Kill 'Em All.

IIRC Mustaine was credited on about half of the tracks on Ride the Lightning but I hadn't noticed him credited on Master of Puppets.

 

[Civfan333]

no no no! it's obviously revolution-beatles!

After Ride the Lightning was released Dave told Lars that he didn't want them using any more of his material so Lars just didn't give him credit for the song. Dave had named it "the hills run red".

As far as SLAYER still going strong, hell ya. I don't go to too many concerts any more, but I will always go see those guys when they tour.

So many possible classical songs.... for rock, first one that comes to mind is Everlong by the Foo Fighters.

 

[cuprumik]

Baba O'Riley by The Who

...and hello everyone

 

[C~G]

Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd

berzerker stole mine, so

That came to my mind also first.

One more vote for Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd

 

[cuprumik]

Noooooo Comfortably Numb is even better live. Exactly two years ago I heard it at Gilmour's Gdańsk gig and I'll never forget it but... I was more exited in the Astronomy Domine beginning

 

[Red Door]

Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones

Actually, my real answer: Africa by Toto.

 

[GoodGame]

I raise you "Put 'em on the Glass".

"Baby Got Back"- Sir Mix A Lot

If it had to be Pink Floyd, I'd say "Money" or "The Gnome"

or "Interstellar Overdrive" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlnHLC9WzW0&feature=related

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones

I almost..almost said this.

Actually, my real answer: Africa by Toto.

 

[Tycoon101]

I raise you "Put 'em on the Glass".

Pah! Child's play!

"Hoochie Mama" (2 Live Crew) is FAR superior to that.

 

[[to_xp]Gekko]

I would definitely agree that "comfortably numb" is one of very few songs that give you the creeps when you listen to it. just now my home stereo has started playing "I love my computer" by Bad Religion, that is always good, but I'll have to think about this for a sec

edit: hell yeah, I'll go with "the decline" by NOFX. can't beat something so long, so varied and with such good lyrics, eheh.

 

[JustinianVII]

Heh, I came here to say "Cliffs of Dover."

Also a great choice. It was kinda hard to pick just one of his songs as the best.
