    If you had to choose only ONE SONG to be able to listen to for the rest of your life, what would it be? No ‘honorable mentions’, no ties, no either/or’s, just ONE SONG. For the rest of your life.

    Mine would have to be So Lonely, by The Police (big surprise). It has every element of The Police sound that I love. Punk/reggae feel, Sting’s super-high vocals, catchy bass-line (stolen from No Woman No Cry), fast double-time chorus, SMOKING guitar solo, Stewart's drum fills on the outro…

    In short, it’s pretty much the perfect song.

    The Killing Words by Queensryche. There's so much emotion in this song.

    The hottest song I have heard all time:

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VfJu_Bom2sA&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VfJu_Bom2sA&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    I cannot possibly omit this song as well:

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kjzSIGt74T0&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kjzSIGt74T0&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    I don't ever list this song as one of my "favorites" but if it were the only song I could listen to, I'd have no complaints.

    <object width="640" height="505"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BwNrmYRiX_o&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BwNrmYRiX_o&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="505"></embed></object>

    A tad cliche, but I think I'd have to go with "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin.

    My girlfriend's pick is "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen.

    This is one of the ONLY songs that I have listened to for years and never gotten tired of it. It is the most played song on my ipod and its not even close. Its just beautiful

    I tried this new tinnitus treatment recently that requires that you listen to an audio track for 2 hours a day (it has a counter frequency built in). They had two classical tracks which were unlistenable and 2 New Age tracks that started off sorta pleasant. But after a week I hated those two songs so bad I couldn't bear to put on the headphones. I'd rather listen to my ears ring.

    You're close... but that isn't even the best recording from that concert.

    This is my favorite live recording of *all* time.

    If I had to choose just one:

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rxr1s24Frmc&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rxr1s24Frmc&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    Will probably seem like an odd choice...but I just really dig this track and probably always will... :)

    I'd have to go Mozart's Requiem Mass. Staying power. Moving. And a Mass (I'm Catholic so I like that sort of thing).

    I think I would rather die than be forced to listen to the same song for the rest of my life, no matter how awesome the song is.
