Silent Lucidity by Queensryche
Leonard Cohen's Bird on the Wire, perhaps a strange choice. Cohen is brilliant, but as much as I love him, I must confess that he is neither an accomplished singer nor an accomplished guitarist. But this song is quite amazing. To be successful, a song must function a relatively superficial "literary" level; because you are not reading it, its impact must be immediate. Cohen succeeds at this level. There is, however, wealth of depth, complexity, and humour packed away here beneath the surface -- Cohen must have been very pleased with himself when he finished this one. My favourite performance of the song is the one on the Songs from a Room album; here he sounds somewhat intoxicated, most fittingly so.

It is my pure and virtuous heart that
gives me the strength of ten!
"mrs robinson" by simon and garfunkle is one of my favs..as well as "white rabbitt" by jefferson airplane
There are many, many, many songs that do things to me (I am getting long in the tooth), but perhaps the one that evokes what I would have liked humanity to perceive and be is ;
What a Wonderful World

Depends on the mood, lots of favourites - could never say just one song is my all time favourite.
After some thought, I'd have to say "Lucky Man". :eek:
I don't know about an absolute favorite, but one song I never seem to get sick of is Orion by Metallica.
I'm dating myself but...
"White Room" by Cream
"Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin a close second

I used to date myself... But then I met Sue and got married. :thumbs2:
Some excellent choices here, but after careful consideration, I think Carrie Newcomer's The Fisher King is my personal favorite. For what it's worth, runners up include (in no special order) Fairport Convention's version of She Moves Through the Fair Hey! 35 years ago this song hadn't been recorded to death!
And, I also like Shawn Colvin's Diamond in the Rough and Steeleye Span's Gaudete

Man, what a tough question.
"I Wish You Peace" by the Eagles, from the One Of These Nights album.
My tastes change minute by minute, but I never get tired of
Sympathy for the Devil by the Rolling stones
very, very good choice.Quote:

Has to be Battle Hymn Of the Republic by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I was very involved in choral music and Pipe Organ in college.
