Do you have a favourite song?

[Axo1989]

yeule: the things they did for me out of love ... if I can only have one song, I want my money's worth:

*yes that is 4 hours 44 minutes

 

[killdozzer]

Yes, many! I think this will be u fun thread to read. For recommendations.

 

[Adi777]

Favourite song? Not possible. I don't have favourite rock album - not from all kind of rock, but only from prog rock, hard rock, blues-rock...
The same situation with jazz, film music, games music, and another.

 

[AdamG]

Easiest question ever. There can only be one. “Anchors Aweigh”

closely followed by: “The Star Spangled Banner”

 

[Axo1989]

Let's make it tough: please only one posting per person (unless the second is extremely obscure).

... closely followed by: “The Star Spangled Banner”

Second song checks out.

 

[Krusty09]

Morning Dew .

 

[mhardy6647]

Morning Dew .

Written by Bonnie Dobson, but (more or less) synonymous with the Dead.
The sine qua non (IMO and FWIW)

 

[Rednaxela]

Gangnam Style - Live in Korea

I have been tracking what music I'm listening to since about 2004 I think. So the answer I'm giving is not what I would tell you if you asked me, but what the data says. I've been listening to this 276 times now, more than any other song by far in my collection (2nd place comes in at 182 times).

This live version is also awesome:

 

[Blumlein 88]

No.

 

[AdamG]

No.

This ? Would have never guessed that…

 

[Krusty09]

No.

To what?

 

[VMAT4]

I don't have a single favorite. And, although I'm not a big classical listener these two pieces are up there:

Sorry these are not songs. But, these are some of my favorite pieces of music.

For songs how about:

[Fergy]

This one would be up there...

For my own personal use, I am trying to compile a playlist of my Top 1000 songs. However, I am sure that I have forgotten a few classics along the way and so I am curious as to what everyone else would nominate as their one, all-time, favourite song. The one that's always overplayed. Your sine qua non / ne plus ultra / desert island A-side / all time go-to. In a FMK discussion, what song would you Marry?

Let's make it tough: please only one posting per person (unless the second is extremely obscure). I know, it's like choosing your favourite child, but we also all know that we have one...

That we have heard live or recorded?

 

[tomelex]

One of my favorites Shelby Lynne Just a little lovin

 

[killdozzer]

This is such a hard question!! I'm cracking my head for few days already! Can I just post the second extremely obscure one? If yes, here goes:

 

[Andretti60]

Tough one. But if I had to pick just one it would be "What's Going On?" from Quincy Jones' Smackwater Jack album.

question: why that version instead of the original, Marvin Gaye was maybe the best American voice.

This is my favorite live performance:

This is such a hard question!! I'm cracking my head for few days already! Can I just post the second extremely obscure one? If yes, here goes:

What song is this? The video isn’t available in Canada for some reason.

 

[deweydm]

Probably Rocks Off by the Stones.
