Post your favorite song of all time and why

[Super Harlex 64]

it is your favorite song of all time.



From Billy Corgan's excellent, unique vocals to the beautiful 30 piece orchestra "Tonight, Tonight" by the Smashing Pumpkins is just simply perfect. The whole atmosphere of this song is just so inspirational and powerful. The lyrics are one of the most well written of all time and so is everything else on Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Every time I hear this song it sends shivers down my spine. Plus the message of being ambitious and going through life willing to change but keeping your head held high is phenomenal. There is no band like the Smashing Pumpkins and there never will be.

"Silence Of The Lambs" is my favorite movie. This song brings back memories of the first time I saw it at a friend's house in 3rd grade. Not to mention it's been a constant in my life for about a decade. It's had such an impact on my life.
Plus the fact that the mystique of this song, and the mysterious disappearance of the lead singer of the band Q Lazzarus has captivated me since I was 12. I even emailed the PR guy for the band Psyche, who covered the song in the 90s. One of their members personally emailed me back with a dozen or so leads on how to find her, but none worked out.

I really get this song.

[The Real Inferno]

[Good News, Bad News!]

Best song, IMO, from one of the best and most innovative bands of their time. Still bummed they didn't play it live in Detroit.

I dunno, just an intense, ass-kicking song. The solo's great, the song doesn't go on forever like some other Iron Maiden songs, and the Churchill speech and war footage make it even better.

Yeah. I've seen this thread a handful of times over the past few days and I can't even begin to narrow it down.
