Your greatest song ever!
 

What songs do you think are the utter idea of perfection.


So much epic!

I always post this song in threads like this. The amount of emotion that this song conveys and it being post-rock is an achievement in itself. Fantastic.

I can think of hundreds of songs that I consider to have no room for improvement or change, but these two are tied for my all time favourite

This is technically two song, but holy **** is it good.

This song is pretty much perfect in my eyes. It really did blow my mind when I first heard it (people use that phrase lightly, but Kate was one of my biggest musical discoveries ever).

What I want from music is something that seems very elusive and hard to pin down, but Kate Bush has whatever 'it' is in spades.
The melodies and the atmosphere of this song just seem so rich to me. It's so beautiful I could cry.


(Since links don't seem to work right now: The song is In Search of Peter Pan.

Isn't that the original title to Finding Neverland? :D

It's that Johnny Derp movie, right? I'm under the impression that people don't like it much these days, but I remember liking it.

Sometimes I find a songs imperfections are what make it perfect.

I get that. I'd argue that the Swedish all-girl punk-metal band Donuts' first album, Age of the Circle, was largely awesome because it was so sloppily played, the vocals so out of tune and the whole ting so shaky and unstable, that the results were positively explosive.

Vangelis - Chariots of Fire

These two always come to mind.

I was surprised the next thing to fall in love with after a while of nothing was a progressive Death Metal song. I mean, Punk's my thing, I don't really listen to stuff dubbed ''progressive'', but this song is perfect. It sounds beautiful and brutal at the same time, unique, and I love the vocals.

is it just me or is all of these videos blacked out ..???

Yeah. The youtube embeds aren't working on computers. They're working on mobile devices though.

No it's not.

I was thinking whole weekend, but still can't decide - to many good song.

Post as many as you want. I know the title says song, but that's not really a rule.

I have a few songs that I like to call the best ever

Sonic Youth - the Diamond Sea
Wolves in the Throne Room - I Will Lay Down my Bones Aming the Rocks and Roots
Iron Maiden - Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Acid Bath - Dr. Seuss is Dead
Kraftwerk - Autobahn
Pink Floyd - Echoes
The Doors - When the Music's Over
Any number of Swans tracks
Circle Takes the Square - North Star, Inverted
City of Caterpillar - And You're Wondering how a Top Floor Could Replace Heaven
World's End Girlfriend - 100 Years of Choke
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Mercy Seat
Carnivore - Male Supremacy
Burzum - A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit

And whatever the ****

Exactly the kind of rhythms I want in music. Angular riffs with an abrupt, jagged ending.

It's an impossible task to figure out the "greatest" song song ever ... I have hundreds of favorite songs. I guess these are songs I hope will never get tired of, that they will always be as amazing as the first time I heard them.

Solid Space - 10th Planet


15th ? WIRE Rockpalast


Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart


Melody's Echo Chamber - I Follow You

Slipknot - Three Nil

oh and this of course

Brotzmann's Machine Gun is one of my all time favourites. It's heavier than 99% of all music.

Slipknot is made for angsty tweens who think their parents make them clean their room because they're mean. Not that it reflects on you, but I'm quite certain that that is their target demographic.

I've often thought about this question, and figured if anyone ever held a gun to my head and asked me to name the Greatest Song Ever Written, I would say this:

Oddly, it's not even my favorite song (though probably in the top 10 or 20), but I think I would call it "greater" than some other songs I personally like better.

If I were to pick from the Beach Boys catalogue I would go either In My Room or God Only Knows.

It's not working for me on Chrome, but it is working on Firefox here.
