Your favorite song of all time
1979 by the Smashing Pumpkins. Originally I loved this because it was real mellow, and it made me feel good listening to it, and it was just one of those summer songs that was real relaxing. I started listening to it a lot, especially while driving, and I don't know there were so many times where I was stopped at a traffic light at 2 in the morning with this song playing and I would just think. I would just sit there and think about everything, just totally forgetting where I was. I went through a phase where I would listen to this song every single time I got in a car. I never got tired of it. Eventually I stopped listening to it all the time, but this song always seems to come back to me when I am "moving on" from something. Like when high school was ending, and just recently when I had relationship end really badly, or something, I don't know. I don't even know where I am going with this and I have been listening to the song the entire time I have been writing this and not thinking about anything I am writing and this is just one big stream of consciousness

I know it will sound cliche for me
Fade To Black - Metallica Growing up, I listened to alot of country as my parents did the same so I grew up listening to such artists as Garth Brooks, Sammy Kershaw, Kenny Chesney, Etc. Now while those guys are awesome for country music and where I am from are commonly heard by all the kids as I grew up in the country. The above song really got me into other genres Heres how it went. I was hanging with my buddy Peter during the first few days of school in 7th grade and he was playing something on his CD player, I asked to hear it and I loved it and I asked who it was, he replies "Are you serious?" I reply "Ive only ever had a bunch of country played around me man" So he says listen to the CD, there was from memory Fade to Black - Metallica In The End - Linkin Park Destroy All - Static-X Paint it Black - Rolling Stones I quite enjoyed what I was hearing, So I asked him to make me a CD with this kind of stuff on it and it went from there. So honestly, that song is what got me listening to metal and hard rock, which to this day I favor over any other genre. Now when I hear the song, it reminds me of the good times I had with friends back in high school, especially the line "Life it seems will fade away, drifting farther everyday" As time goes on the memories are hazy, but they are still there to remember ![]() |

Shout by Tears For Fears
The way it is structured, the lyrics, the general sound... all perfect for me. I'm an 80's fiend and with this, the production and mixing teams got it back on and captured exactly what Orzabal and Smith were after. |

If I had to pick one, it would be....
Iron Maiden - The Clansman. The Deulists and Evil That Men Do would be very close seconds. Other than that, some songs that are favorites.... Sevendust - Crucified. Testament - Return to Serenity. Reveille - Derelict Audioslave - Show Me How to Live |

I'd say either "Special" or "Nobody Can Win" by Garbage.
Followed by "Exit Music (For a Film)" by Radiohead. |

The Smiths - Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now
I guess. I have liked other songs just as much or maybe even more but this song never gets played out no matter how many times I have listened to it for some reason. |

It really is hard to pick just one. But If I had to pick, the Offspring - Come Out and Play is one my top favorite songs. Disturbed - Voices is the closest that rivals it.

Three way tie:
Minus the Bear - Absinthe Party at the Fly Honey Warehouse The Appleseed Cast - Steps and Numbers Cursive - A Gentleman Caller Each one represents something different I love about music, and are kind of inseparable as a result of being equally awesome but so fundamentally different. |

"Rollin" by Limp Bizkit is my favourite song of all-time. Fred Durst and Wes Borlin deserve a lot of props for their originality and innovation.
