Cornflakes Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Anytime I want to get to know someone, I ask them to provide me with a list of their Top 10 favorite songs of all time. Some people see this and go "Ooooo I love music! This will be fun!" Some people see this and say "I really don't think music should be used to get to know people!" But I really love music, and I think taste in music is really telling as to who a person is. So please, reply away. It will make me happy. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noog Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I can't really say my top 10 of all-time, new songs always replace old ones, then nostalgia knocks new ones out of the way. In no particular order: To Trixie and Reptile, Thanks for Everything - Chiodos Lexington (Joey pea-pot with a monkey face) -Chiodos Hello Fascination - Breathe Carolina Duck, Duck, Grey Goose- Let's Get It Three Cheers for Five Years - Mayday Parade Still Breathing - Mayday Parade I'm made of Wax, Larry, what are you made of? - A Day to Remember Assisstant to the Regional Manager - The Devil Wears Prada Caraphernelia - Pierce the Veil (feat. A Day to Remember) Cemetery Weather - Isles and Glaciers There's the top 10. And just for the extra connection, one of my many favorites, and a guilty pleasure song, is Time Machine by The Click Five :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also passionately crazy about this song...I just didn't want to clutter up the lists with my fawning :P I guess I'm a Van Morrison fan in general. Them is one of the greatest underrated bands of all time ever. But I hate "Moondance." Barf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
