Well, my favorite song changes quite frequently, but right now:

Bright Eyes- A Spindle, A Darkness, A Fever, and A Necklace. I am addicted to this song! I can't get enough of it. :mrgreen: It's such a good song. I haven't had an OLP song in a loooong time touch me in the way this song does. Which is sad. :(
HARDCORE!!!

OMG. I can't believe I din't think fo you
until now because when I think on
a scale of one to ten you're like YWELVE.
No, seriously?

I <3 my HLP!!!!!

My favorite all-time song is definitely Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Next would be Naveed and AYS? but those don't count.
My current favorite song is just as definitely, Jeff Buckley's Grace.

Hmm..my favorite song..I think Incubus's The Warmth but I'm prolly forgetting something big. Stone Temple Pilots' Atlanta is pretty close to that too.

It changes daily, but for now I'll say "The Lines You Amend" by Sloan.

I have a couple....

Alkaline Trio - "Steamer Trunk" "You're Dead" "Radio" "Bleeder" and "Fuck You Aurora"

The Get Up Kids - "I'll Catch You" and "Overdue"

Yeah, that's about it for me.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I am liking Overdue a lot more now. Just listening to how simple, but amazing that song is just carries so much emotion.

I'll have to download that song.

lol. When I was going home from vacation, we drove on the Mass Pike! And I put two and two together and figured out that that's what the Mass Pike is. :roll: Sometimes I seriously scare myself.

I just wanna use this space to recommend people to listen to Alkaline Trio. If you're truly open minded towards music, and don't have a problem with a lack of amazing guitar work, you will find these guys to be pretty damn good. D/l the songs I said were my favorites first, then if you like them, IM me and I will give you a slew of other songs that you will probably like too. And about the lack of guitar work in their music, just think of this. Imagine being a lead singer and having to do all the guitar work yourself. They aren't blessed with a background guitarist, it's just a guitarist/singer, a bassist/singer, and a drummer. For what they do, they're damn good.

I never post here, but I just had to for this one.

Dexter Freebish, "Leaving Town" -- I don't know if anyone's really heard of them on this board, but they're one of my favorite bands, and that song is just utterly amazing to me, musically and lyrically.
