"Forum Users Decide: Best Song Of All Time"

You know, like pb's best DVD of all time.
Pick your favourite 10 songs of all time, and I'll count up the number of times each song is voted for, then we can get a accuratish description of what songs people here like the most (funnily enough).

And why not?

Here we go (In no particular order)

Chillis - Californication
Chillis - By The Way
Travis - Sing
REM - Imitation of Life
Coldplay - In My Place
Coldplay - Trouble
Blur - Song 2
Phonics - Just Looking
No Doubt - Don't Speak
Junior & Senior - Move Ya Feet (Mwah)

There. 'Tis done.

1. Paul Young - Wherever i lay my hat
2. Michael Jackson - Thriller
3. Ocean Colour Scene - Day we caught the train
4. Phil Collins - Easy Lover
5. Michael Jackson - Beat It
6. Mike And the Mechanics - Looking Back Over My Shoulder
7. Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up
8. Oasis - Wonderwall
9. Maroon 5 - She Will Be Loved
10. Snow Patrol - Light Up

Ok.

Foo Fighters- Everlong
Inme- Underdose
Inme- Firefly
Iron Maiden- Blood Brothers
Foo Fighters- Breakout
Blur- Song 2
Blur- Coffe and T.V
Blur- Parklife
Nirvana- In Bloom
Nirvana- Sliver

Pixies- Velouria
Pixies- Diggin for fire
Pixies- Wave of Mutilation
Pixies- Debaser
Pixies- Caribou
Pixies- This monkey's gone to heaven
Pixies- Here comes your man
RATM- Killing in the name
Pennywise- F*** Authority

I seriously doubt that some of these will get many votes... but hey.

No order...

Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name
Anti-Flag - Tearing Down The Borders
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Around The World
Muse - Hysteria
Rancid - Bloodclot
Rise Against - Blood Red, White and Blue
Incubus - Pardon Me
Green Day - 2000 Light Years Away
Dream Theater - As I Am
Dream Theater - Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence

OK, this is difficult enough as it is, so can I ask for some help from you by asking if, from now on, when you pick songs, you lay it out in the form:

Artist name - song name

And try to keep songs by teh same artists together, makes it easier for me sorting them out.

Alsom try not to put too many songs in from one band.

So far we have 1 vote for everything except Smells Like Teen Spirit (3 votes) and Song 2 (2 votes). I think.

Hey munn, edit the results into the original post will you?

It's just easier that way.

Yes, I am incompetant (sp?), thankyou.

EDIT: Sorry, should look before complaining...

I'll do it when songs begin to move away from others, then I'll just put in the top 30 songs or so (if this keeps going for that long), if I put every song into the original opost, people with 56ks would never manage to get into the topic.

Since I'd probably fill my list with their music anyway, I'm gonna do a Top 10 Red Hot Chili Peppers list firstly, comprising of music which is their own (meaning, no Jimi Hendrix or Bob Dylan covers).

So, in no real specific order, here I go:

Show Me Your Soul
Under the Bridge
Around the World
Green Heaven
Stone Cold Bush

Knock Me Down
Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Sir Psycho Sexy
Give it Away
Californication


Songs that narrowly missed the cut include: Skinny Sweaty Man, Fight Like a Brave, I Could Have Lied, Aeroplane, Coffee Shop Blackeyed Blonde, Time and Can't Stop.

Stiltskin - Inside
Thin Lizzy – The Boys Are Back In Town
Liza Minnelli – Cabaret
Joan Armatrading - The Weakness in Me
Marilyn Monroe – Diamonds are a girls best friend
Squeeze – Black coffee in bed
AC/DC – Whole lotta Rosie
The Blasters – One Bad Stud
Slade – How does it feel
Don McLean – American Pie (full version)
