In your opinion, the Greatest Song ever written?

Imagine by John Lennon. :wub:

Corny as it is, I've always loved this line from one of Fallout Boy's songs (that I can't remember what it's called because they all have strawberry floating essays for titles that have nothing to do with the song).

"I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the lights".

Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year

Or so I've heard :shifty:

Typo

Something by Bob Dylan probably, Like A Rolling Stone or Don't Think Twice, or The Times They Are A' changin, or Baby Blue.

I also really love Oxygen by Willy Mason, he's good.

A couple of my own personal faves at the mo. Could never really name a favourite of all time though

Neutal Milk Hotel- In the aeroplane over the sea

Kinks- Shangri-la

Shins- Phantom Limb

There are only a few songs that make me genuinely stop and listen to them every single time, one of them that I can remember at the moment is the Sunscreen song. Damn, I wished i'd listened to that every day when I was younger, would have made a difference.

probably something like Wonderwall by Oasis.

classic.

Bold As Love - Jimi Hendrix
Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix

These have to be in the Top 3 greatest songs ever written.

I agree with whoever it was who said anything off pinkerton.

It HAS to be a piss-take, surely? It's like a parody. It's unbelievable, Jeff.

Sean Elliot was ripping on that in the last Out of the Game podcast.

Also Total Eclipse of the Moon is the greatest song ever written.

Love will tear us apart - Joy Division

So true.

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing
Tears For Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule The World
The Doors - Riders On The Storm
Blur - Parklife

AND it's genuinely called Stick Stickly? :lol:

It's quite possibly the worst song I've ever heard. And I've heard Crank That.

Suprising lack of Radiohead in here. I know the lyrics are a load of bollocks, but Yorke really does deliver them.

You knows it.

This contest is over, give that man the $10,000.

Here's my srs shortlist. It's simply not possible to cut it down any further than this.

Life on Mars
Stairway To Heaven
Bat Out Of Hell
Bohemian Rhapsody
Chop Suey

:wub:

I completely forgot about this song.

It's genius, well worth watching the video as well

Shame the sound isn't of great quality.
