Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2006 i just can't say i'm in favor of redefining words for no reason if the topic were "favorite pieces of music" or something like that, my list would be quite different, instead of rock-oriented stuff that has actual singing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Felonies! Report post Posted May 29, 2006 I'll concede Rhapsody In Blue as a composition rather than a song, but not Take Five. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2006 a song is a composition, as well. and wow, Take Five is a composition. i'm not trying to argue, and apparently this has been discussed before, but if you want to ignore the meaning of words, then table asparagus seagull.

The Top 5 are always & forever. 6-10 are most likely to fill out the rest of the list but can vary. 1: "Iron Man" - Black Sabbath 2: "Come Out and Play" - Offspring (Too damn upbeat in a good way, given the subject matter) 3: "Mr. Writer" - Stereophonics 4: "Hello" - Oasis 5: "#1 Crush" - Garbage 6: "Chasing The Caped Man" Score - Final Fantasy VII (Something about it calms me) 7: "Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge on Seattle" - Nirvana 8: "Fire on Babylon" - Sinead O'Connor 9: "A Day In The Life" - Beatles 10A: "Alternate Willow" Score - Christophe Beck 10B: "Of Wolf and Man" - Metallica (Not sure what it does to me but I love it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garth 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 Art Brut - Good Weekend The Beatles - A Day In The Life Queens of the Stone Age - Go With The Flow LL Cool J - Mamma Said Knock You Out The Rapture - Whoo! Alright-Yeah... Uh Huh Electric Six - Danger! High Voltage! Finley Quaye - Spiritulized White Stripes - You're Pretty Good Looking (For A Girl) Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower Talking Heads - Psycho Killer It's really tough to do this. I don't ever feel I can properly reduce my most favourite songs down to a list of just 10. Those so many others that I'd love to add or take away. However, I don't know how much longevity they'll have with me, even though at the moment they're one of my favourites. For example The Raptures - WAYUH I love it and have done for over a year but will it still be a favourite of mine another year done the line? Doubtful, but as it stands it's a favourite very much so. Especially when it's time to get ready and go out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tzar Lysergic Report post Posted October 18, 2007 I can do this with albums, but not songs. Sleep's "Dopesmoker" and any nine Agoraphobic Nosebleed tracks is as good a guess as any. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 "Tears of a Clown" is an interesting choice. I like that song, but it seems a little too whimsical to me. My favorite Miracles song would actually be "Tracks of My Tears" probably, which is pretty much a song about exactly the same thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
