This is not a joke.... kinda

The Greatest Song In The World... Tribute , by Tenacious D.

I think it answers the question perfectly.... and not a bad song to boot.

I guess if we are talking real life...
Stevie Wonder , Living for the city

It's impossible to pick one favorite song, so I'll name a few.
All of these just do something to me for different reasons.

SRV: Little Wing
Hendrix: Red House
Allman Brothers: In Memory of Elizabeth Reed
Dire Straits: Down to the Waterline
Pink Floyd: Comfortably Numb
Stevie Wonder: Superstition
Otis: I've Got Dreams to Remember
Sam Cooke: A Change is Gonna Come
BB King: The Thrill is Gone


Favorite song of my generation:
John Mayer- Slow Dancing in a Burning Room

If I had to pick just one, it'd probably be this:

The Dance

That sounds better now to me than it did back then

I, like so many others in this thread, have many favorite songs of all time. Enjoy this 1967 super favorite of mine:

Procol Harum - A Whiter Shade Of Pale

Pixies - Where Is My Mind?

This is currently it, but I routinely flip flop between these:

Stones - Gimme Shelter
Built To Spill - Liar
Stones - Sympathy For The Devil
Modest Mouse - 3rd Planet

So hard to pick just one though...

So hard to narrow it down. Like most are saying, I have 5-10 songs that are in the running. Matter of fact, if you asked again tomorrow, Ill probably choose another song just based on what my mood is at the time, haha.

But for now...

Otis Redding - Ive Got Dreams To Remember

One of the songs I strongly considered. A definite top-5 for me.

My taste range from Simon and Garfunkle to Nine inch nails. But one does stand out.... Broken Amy Lee/Seether duet.

too many to choose from. How about an approximate top five in no particular order:

Into the Mystic - Van Morrison

Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who

Hey Jude - The Beatles

The Wind Cries Mary - Jimi Hendrix

Somewhere in the Between - Streetlight Manifesto

Man was it tough just to narrow it down to only five. When they say that they don't make good music anymore, it's not entirely true (except for the last song). However, there's nothing from the last 30 years that can touch any of these songs (though if I expanded to 20 there would be a fair number of new songs.)
