Your Top 10 Favorite Songs of All-Time


Cornflakes

Recommended Posts

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. :)

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

Admittedly I haven't heard of most of those bands, but I had to say that they are really good at naming songs. :D

GASP! Into the Mystic is gorgeous. I have it on vinyl and it scratches ever so slightly when it plays, but it adds to the song's beauty so much that I can't listen to it any other way.

Unfortunately, I don't have the record, but I love it however it is played! It's definitely one of my faves!

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.
