Top 5 Favourite songs of all time!

post #1 of 47
Thread Starter 
Probably very difficult for most. I've been thinking about this all day, and here's what I came up with. Most likely would be different tomorrow though:

-Pink Floyd - Echoes
-Gescom - Go Sumo
-Neil Young - Harvest Moon
-Joy Division - New Dawn Fades
-Santa Esmeralda - Please don't let me be misunderstood (better than the animals version imho)

The Beach Boys' "God Only Knows" is the only one of my top five songs with lifetime membership.

+1, although I've also never tired of Gershwin playing Rhapsody in Blue or any version of about 3 Rachmaninoff preludes.

If I can only pick five, I have to go with the stuff that contains multitudes

Sylvester Weaver - Bottleneck Blues. Guy probably used a knife for his slide


Louis Armstrong - Dinah. For the singing..


John Lee Hooker - Boogie Chillen


Robert Johnson - Dust My Broom


But really, I would be lying I denied this song. My favorite of all time, as much for associated memories as the song itself
