The Single Greatest Song of All Time, Period, End of Story
Tuesday, January 30th, 2007 - 2:59am
I'm sick of lists. "Here's my top 5, with three extras for posterity." That's something my grandma would do. Have some backbone, I say! Tie your choice to a pole, and stick that pole in the ground. Let it fly free, and proud!
The greatest song of all time is: Metallica - Call of the Ktulu.
Now you go. But remember: This is a no-waffling zone! There are no opinions, here. Only facts. Anybody who doesn't put the song you did is simply WRONG. There is only ONE, and yours is it.
[edit] - New Rule: If available, it is preferred to provide a link to some version of the song.
"PEACE ON EARTH. GOOD WILL TO MEN. PUBLIC SHELTER. ADMISSION 50¢"
Metallica - Orion, from the Masters of Puppets album.
So hell did freeze over after all; Welcome to Skjold!

This is not the greatest song in the world. We actually forgot it.

We shall grapple with the ineffable, and see if we may not eff it after all.
I never heard this song before I looked for the video.

That's actually where I first heard it. He mentioned that it was also the main song from Platoon.

Well, even if it's not the greatest song ever, I sure as hell played the hell out of it. I also played it on my last night on air at KJHK-FM, the college station for Kansas. Basically, this song kind of summed up the position Generation Xers found themselves in. A nice world, with lots of cool toys. But also an assload of debt, both financially and enviromentally. So while we get to play with all of our cool toys, the boomers get pissed because we don't seem all that concerned with cleaning up their mess. At least that's what I said on the air that night. Maybe it's something completely different now. I still play it often.

Oh, here's the video for Story of My Life.
There's some good stuff here (though all clearly inferior to Social D). Those of you that aren't following directions, however (i.e., those of you who have hedged your assertions): I'm sorry, but you lose.

You beat me to it, Edwin. I mean, sh*t, I can't believe we're even having this debate.
Plus, girls aren't exactly Rufus Wainwright's thing.

I had to look it up, because I had no idea what song it was. It's okay. It has no ill reindeer, and it was not in Die Hard so it's not the best song ever, but you're entitled to your (wrong) opinion.
Huey Lewis & The News - Hip To Be Square
...not really.
But it sure is a guilty pleasure of mine.
Nine Inch Nails - Piggy
Hmm.. God, this is too hard. I could go with some classic rock song like Stairway to Heaven, but you can't help but be too biased towards the song that you're currently hooked on. I'm sure I'm souring this thread with my indecision.

Christmas in Hollis is ill, but King of Rock is better.
