    After hearing about the most annoying song, figured it'd be cool to hear some of your favorites:

    Best of What's Around -- Dave Matthews Band
    Dancing Nancies -- Dave Matthews Band
    You -- Candlebox
    Mr. Jones -- Counting Crows
    Callin' Me -- Lil' Zane
    I need a Hot Girl -- Hot Boys

    I love all the songs by my fav artists but for this list I broke it down to ten songs from my top two groups.

    Rage Against the Machine:
    know your enemy
    pistol grip pump
    born as ghosts
    down rodeo
    roll right
    township rebellion
    freedom
    war within a breath
    renegades of funk
    take the power back

    Geez, this is hard but easier than the suckiest song ever, so I thought I'd give it a whirl.

    I've always thought the best songs were the ones I actually paid attention to the lyrics and actually had the lyrics affect me. The best songs to me are also the ones I'm still saying "damn that's a great song" over 5 years later. I haven't had too many since the 80's I can say this about. This also leaves out about 99.9% of all the rap music I hear today where I like it for about a week and forget about it. [​IMG]

    I know I'm going to miss something, but here ya go :

    End of the Innocence by Don Henley
    The Boys of Summer by Don Henley
    The Heart of the Matter by Don Henley
    Cat's in the Cradle by Harry Chapin
    My Girl by The Temptations
    Just My Imagination by The Temptations
    Ain't Too Proud to Beg by the Temptations
    I'm Losing You by the Temptations
    The Way You Do the Things You Do by the Temptations
    Why Do Fools Fall in Love by Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers
    Sexual Healing by Marvin Gaye
    Rhythm of the Rain by The Cascades (hehe)
    Cruisin' by Smokey Robinson
    Being With You by Smokey Robinson
    Ooo Baby Baby by Smokey Robinson
    One Heartbeat by Smokey Robinson
    Tears of a Clow by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles
    The Tracks of My Tears by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles
    I Second That Emotion by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles
    Shop Around by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles
    Baby I Need Your Loving by the Four Tops
    King of Rock by Run DMC
    Walk This Way by Run DMC/Aerosmith
    It's Tricky by Run DMC
    I Can't Live Without My Radio by LL Cool J
    I'm Bad by LL Cool J
    Rock the Bells by LL Cool J
    How Do You Like Me Now by Toby Keith
    California Love by Tupac Shakur
    How Do You Want It by Tupac Shakur
    a bunch of other Tupac songs I'm missing
    Set Adrift on Memory Bliss by PM Dawn
    Paper Doll by PM Dawn
    A Watcher's Point of View by PM Dawn
    I'd Die Without You by PM Dawn
    Looking Through Patient Eyes by PM Dawn
    Reality Used to Be a Friend of Mine by PM Dawn
    PM Dawn is one of the most underrated groups of all time in my opinion (if you don't like rap, that's what they are, but it's not a cuss-fest and the lyrics are pretty deep in meaning...check it out

    Man, I could go on forever, but I'll stop here... obviously I'm going to leave out a lot of stuff like Diana Ross & the Supremes, more Marvin Gaye, a bunch of other Motown artists, but I have a liking for MoTown and music from the 50's - 70's. Something about that whole era...

    Please, please, PLEASE tell me you're joking. She took one of the greatest rock songs of all time, by one of the greatest bands of all time, and ruined it.

    Too tough to name greatest song, but greatest album of all time, "Kind Of Blue" -- Miles Davis.

    Good Marvin Gaye song you mentioned. Oh, and Boyz II Men have got to be my favorite contemporary group. Like I said, I have so many favorites, I just soon found no point in continuing... lots of good music out there!

    Did you see what she was wearing (or should I say not wearing) when she performed the song on the VMA's? [​IMG]

    That is one great song [​IMG]
