limit one per artist

no particular order for mine

Waste of Paint- Bright Eyes
In turn unleashes discoure on Art, loss, family, love, society, faith, and ultimately life. With a very catchy riff. Really great lyrics with a simple acoustic.

Michael Jackson- Wanna Be Startin Somethin'
Really complex music probably the greatest pop song of all time.

Fireworks- Animal Collective
Just the build up and change in structure throughout are enough. The lyrics and the fireworks drums at to this for me

Queen- Bohemian Rhapsody
really speaks for itself

Pink Floyd- Money
again

Radiohead- Paranoid Android
Not my favorite radiohead song but i think it represents a good chunk of what they do.

Pavement- Stereo
Everything a song should be.. infectious, amazing... indie:shifty:

Neutral Milk Hotel- Aeroplane over the Sea


Public Enemy- Bring the noise

beatles- happiness is a warm gun

I hate on all these "top 10" threads where people say stuff like "Honorable mention" or "can't limit it to ten"... people gotta stop being such pussies and do what the thread says. :nono:

Always - Bon Jovi



:nono:

It's like the song equivilent of a really really feminine chick flick.

Like, a Danielle Steel movie adaptation.

There is nothing anyone could say that would offend me more than that, FA.

:foc:

Downunder
05-20-2008, 06:38 AM
Don't care FA, it doesn't have death cab for cutie so it gets a thumbs up from me.


I don't agree with the song choices, but the band choices are pretty much spot on.

El Fangel
05-20-2008, 08:12 AM
Im just messing with you Nunder, I agree the bands are pretty on, its up to people to decide what they think is the best song though, except Metallica, and FB, I put that there only because I wanted to include a love song type song, I dont know any better ones, so there you go.

Fabien Barthez
05-20-2008, 09:32 AM
Shoulda chosen a Stones love song, and A Jovi cheese song in that case. Angie and it's my life, if you are married to the band choices.
