What is the best song of all time?

I know it sounds kinda cheesy, but I am interested to hear what people think about this. Esp. #2. Peace.

1) What is your favorite song of all time. Not just the one you are currently attached to.

2) What do you think is most widely considered to be the best song in the States.

 

May This Be Love by Jimi Hendrix
or
Tiny Dancer by Elton John


Haha..Yeah.. Cheesy.
But good topic, nonetheless

 

1. Bob Dylan - The times are a-changin OR John Lennon - Imagine

2. Rolling Stones - (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction

 

bird song
the dawn chorus can't beat it

 

mmm. bird song. haven't listened to that in a while. just turned it on. used to be my fav. back in '95. thanks!
Also to Micha, I hate to say it, but I never even heard of Elton John's Tiny Dancer. Just downloaded it, love it.

 

May This Be Love is also my favorite Jimi song. Amazing! waterfalls drippin' from his freakin' guitar!

 

Pink Floyd - "Echoes" - Album:Meddle
this was early pinkFloyd (pre-darkSide/moon)
DIRECTIONS:
Next time you trip on Boomers or LSD put this song on max volume and hit repeat.

 

ya, ecohes is a good tune.

My favorite song is "Don't think twice, it's allright" by bob dylan

and although I strongly disagree, I think Stairway is considered the best song by most people. At least occording to all of my radio stations.

 

God Only Knows.

 

1. A few that are in the running:
November Rain - Guns N Roses
One - Metallica
Everlong - Foo Fighters
Purple Haze - Jimi Hendrix
ATWA - System of a Down
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
2. It's so diverse that I don't think there is one that is widely considered the best

 

here's the best song ever:

1. 'heroin', by the velvet underground


2. 'stairway to heaven', i guess

 

possible candidates:

stairway to heaven - zeppelin
voodoo child ( slight return) - Hendrix
substitute - the who
starman - David Bowie
Hey jude - the beatles
Badge - Cream
losing my religion - REM
Drive - Incubus


peace and love

"FreeBird"
By Lynard Skynard

other nominations
one by Metallica
master of puppets by Metallica
song remains the same by Led Zep

 

Almost impossible to do. Have to agree that Elton's Tiny Dancer is a pearl + 1 that's rarely played.
A few Faves:
In my life- Beatles
I can't make you love me- Bonnie Raitt
Take me in your arms- Kim Weston
The pretender- Jackson Browne

 

Yeah, goldmund Tiny Dancer is a really great song.

And May this be love is just absolutely amazing. Nothing more to say, really

 

That song was ruined ever since i heard Britney Spears sing it..
=/

[Still a great song though..]

 

the thought of that makes me shed numerous tears

 

yeh i think either Echoes by Floyd or Telegraph Road by Dire Straits
i have no idea what the one in the states is though...

 

1. my all time favorite song is "son of a preacher man" by dusty springfield

2. ....
