I always thought it was Black Dog, but now I am leaning towards Fake Plastic Trees.

    of all time? if so then i'd have to go with probably 'strange fruit' by billie holliday, for the music and the power in the lyrics

    for rock, i'd probably go with kashmir....has that bolero sorta build to it, beautiful blend of eastern/western notes. my fave zep tune :)

    For me, the greatest song ever changes daily. I have been trying to learn Stairway to Heaven on guitar and it's not going so well so right now I think it's the greatest song ever.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Awesome song. Though I must say, i'm surprised you're an REM fan. If you are and i'm not just making an assumption that is. :p

    Two things I love about this thread so far:

    1. I am reminded of how many beautiful songs there are out there
    2. No negativity or bashing

    Oh, and I like to know what you love :)

    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    "I Write the Songs" by Barry Manilow....or was it "Mandy" by Barry Manilow....oh, yeah it was "Weekend in New England" by Barry Manilow...I think. :confused:
    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.

    The Creator Has a Master Plan by Pharaoh Sanders has got to be a contender, too.
