My all time favourite song.
 
Louis Armstrong - A Kiss to Build a Dream On

Post yours please.

I have ruined many sets of speakers in my cars on this song.

I first bought the Quadraphonic 8 track, wore that out, Quad was gone, so I replaced it with another 8 track tape, and wore that out. By then cassettes were common, so I got a cassette and wore that out. Then I bought the album, and made my own tapes. I bought the CD when it came out, and than the ZZ Top 6 Pack has the album again.

They made their money from me!

Ha... Excellent Glen.

I couldn't possibly pick just one, but Louis has some great ones, and I REALLY like that one as well.

I think when I was younger, Hotel California was at the top of my list. So that's probably as close as I could get to picking one, because at one time it was. These days I'd have a hard time narrowing it down. Too many genre of music, and too many great songs in each genre.

That'd by like going here and trying to pick out the best flower.

Stairway to heaven is on my short list.

Just watched the video of Heart doing it at Kennedy center, exciting performance.

Cheers Richard

MBAtarga 07-17-2020 06:40 AM

First song that comes to mind for an answer is Bohemian Rhapsody?

bob deluke 07-17-2020 06:45 AM

Jackson Browne; “Runnin’ on empty”..

Good call! Agreed, definitely up there.

Awaken by Yes is the most epic.

Starless 07-17-2020 07:30 AM

The Night Watch. King Crimson.

Pedro '84 Coupe 07-17-2020 07:33 AM

So many great songs and bands. Hard to pick just one. Love me some Louis Armstrong ("What a Wonderful World" and his version of "La Vie en Rose" are great). Here's one that always gets me. It's "one" of my favorites :cool:

I agree, way too many great songs, albums and artists to single one song out.

For instance, I wouldn't have thought of Geo Harrison but I used to play that album over and over.

Never saw that video ^^^^ and it's a little disturbing. Awkward as well.

David 07-17-2020 07:44 AM

Tons of favorites but number one is "Life's Been Good"

I finally got to hear it live last year when Joe Walsh had his VetsAid charity show in Houston with the Doobie Brothers, ZZ Top, Brad Paisley and Sheryl Crow.

vash 07-17-2020 08:39 AM

easy. i can pin it down to a single favorite.

This must be the place - Talking heads.

rusnak 07-17-2020 08:41 AM

Favorite song? Yeah RIGHT. That's not possible.

But then there are songs and performances which thunder through time and space, and become etched into society for generations. I should also mention that times of crisis, struggle, and overcoming great pain tend to produce the greatest songs and artists.

I can listen to Rhapsody in Blue many times over and not get tired of it.
When I'm driving, I especially like Jessica by the Almond Brothers Band, the long version.
Of late, I've been enjoying the video of the Eagle's Farewell Tour from Australia's Laver Stadium a lot. It's nice to see all those people together, no masks, shoulder-to-shoulder without a care, enjoying the music. Later videos of the group (like the ones they recorded in 2018 at the Forum) don't compare as the recording just wasn't as well produced as that concert series was, IMO. Glenn Frey did a good job and he is missed technically and vocally too.

GH85Carrera 07-17-2020 09:18 AM

As everyone says, there are too many great songs from a lot of bands to have one single favorite. And that favorite can change due to the mood one is in.

The stones have several "favorite" songs of mine, and do AC/DC and Lynyrd Skynyrd, and lots from ZZ Top, and the Beatles.

Another long time favorite is from the stones. It has been my theme song most of my life. You Can't Always Get What You Want.

American Pie by Don McLean is a really good song.

NY65912 07-17-2020 11:54 AM

This must be categorized for the best answer.

Mellow - PF Comfortably Numb
Heart Pumping - Led Zep Been a long time (since I rocked and rolled)
More heart pumping Jethro Tull Locomotive Breath
Then there's Queen
Love Sinatra Summer Wind and The way you look tonight
KC - Get Down Tonight
RL Burnside - Ass Pocket Full of Whisky

I can't answer this question, my head hurts

Seahawk 07-17-2020 12:03 PM

I can still recall listening to this cassette, plugged into my Pioneer Super Tuner in my 2002.

Aja is a better album, but this was it from the second I heard it.

Te Allman Brothers were a close second.
