The ONE Song (rock, ballad, single, genre, scorpions)

i dont want a top 5, i dont want a top 10, i dont want a list of any sort. i want your greatest song, the song that you couldnt imagine life without. the song that sends shivers down your spine every time you hear it, your surroundings get lost in it. plus, i want the reasons why its your most favourite song ever.
ok mine, as you can guess its a zeppelin song. sorry to all of you who are fed up with it but stairway to heaven is the greatest IMO. i dont care for all this critisism of it, "overrated", "fed up with hearing about it" blah blah, it simply is a class song. the way it encompasses 3 genres of music- starts as a ballad, turns to soft rock then finishes with an all-guns-blazing aural assault of heavy rock. just class. ok, im done- yours?

Finch - Awake

I know, so many people say how this song is nothing special.. But to me, it is. This is just the ultimate song for me, there is nothing this good... Every time I hear it I get completely involved in the music, its as if Im right there with them when theyre playing... Every single sound in that song is perfect, theres not a single noise out of place. The song just.. carries you off, and takes you away. Youre jsut completely connected with the music, every emotion you hear, you feel....

ok...i don't have a single favourite song from all the music i have...i doesn't work like that for me...but the song that impressed me the most recently is interpol - take you on a cruise...it gives me goosebumbs every time i hear it...but you have to play it super loud, otherwise you don't get the full feel...
( acouple of months ago it was keane -everybody's changing...it changes every now and then for me...)

i would have to say "Bohemeian Rhaspody" by Queen. freddie mercury's vocals throughout the entire song are awesome, and the whole choir-arrangement thing he does is equally awesome. this song starts out a quiet ballad , then rolls into an a very upbeat and driving middle, then snowballs its way to hard rock with a brian may driven guitar solo, and in its final moments degresses its way into a ballad, just as it begun.

I think my favourite siong must be Redemption Song by Bob Marley, even the cover by Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros was great. It narrowly beats One Week by The Barenaked Ladies.
