There's already been a few threads like this, but I couldn't find them in a search so I thought I'd start a new one:

10 Favourite Songs:

Led Zeppelin - Since I've Been Loving You - this song has a really good atmosphere, and Page does some awsome solos in the live versions

Red Hot Chili Peppers - I Could Have Lied - I like the feel of this song, and the solo and outro fit well with the rest of the song

Incubus - Just A Phase - the DJ work sounds good and I like the change from a quiet song to a loud outro

The Mars Volta - L'Via L'Viaquez - there are some cool rhythms on here, like the Salsa chorus, and Frusciante adds some great solos

Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American - the vocals are strong and it has a good feel to it

Jimi Hendrix - Ezy Ryder - this song just has a great mood, it's really upbeat and is very underrated

New Radicals - Mother We Just Can't Get Enough - the hook is quite funky and Gregg has amazing vocals on here

Foo Fighters - Monkey Wrench - this song is really upbeat again, which makes it fun to listen to

Jamiroquai - Love Foolosophy - I like the funky rhythm to it, and Jay-Kay's singing technique

Audioslave - Dandelion - again, I like the change from quiet to loud in this song, it really adds impact to it

Nirvana-Smells Like Teen Spirit

Cannot understand a fuckin word but the video and riff is rockin! Much more than a song.

Manic Street Preachers- A Design For Life

Manics best song ever....FACT.

Ian Brown-F.E.A.R

Former Stone Roses frontman proves his Godlike Genius award at the NME's wasnt a mistake.

The Verve-Bittersweet Symphony

Cracking video and one of the best songs ever made.

Ozzy Osbourne-Hellraiser

Birmingham's favourite son shows why he is a rock icon.

Greenday-Basket Case

Favourite Greenday track by a mile, cool vid too.

Kasabian-L.S.F

Indie band from Leicester show their promise as future legends.

Muse-Bliss

In no particular order...

Doves- "Pounding"

Chorus really gives me a rush. Very uplifting. Best song on a way above average album ("The Last Broadcast").

R.E.M- "Star Me Kitten"

Just lovely. Good to relax to.

Bloc Party- "This Modern Love"

If only for the harmonies in the chorus.

Editors- "Blood"

The first song of theirs I heard. A real rush from start to finish.

Peter Gabriel- "Sledgehammer"

Old school. Brilliant pop song.

Radiohead- "Everything In Its Right Place"

It agitates you and relaxes you at the same time. Crazy.

Deep Forest- "While The Earth Sleeps"

From the "Strange Days" soundtrack. I don't really like dance music, but this is ace.

Metallica- "Master Of Puppets"

From when they used to be good.

The Verve- "Lucky Man"

Impossible to chose one track from "Urban Hymns", so I'll just say this one.

Nine Inch Nails- "The Fragile"

Good for depressing moments, yet I find it strangely uplifting.

As I'm sure you can guess, I have a very wide-ranging music collection. I couldn't possibly narrow it down to 10 favourite songs, but these are all ones that keep me happy.

i'll try not to repeat the same artist twice, otherwise this might be entirely bob dylan, & the beatles

bob dylan - visions of johanna (live)
the beatles - dear prudence
nick drake - hazey jane i
leonard cohen - suzanne
the rolling stones - wild horses
the velvet underground - heroin
the doors - the end
pete seeger - we shall overcome
woody guthrie - this land is your land
i can't decide on a 10th one

then again, there are entire albums like my bloody valentine's "loveless," sinatra's "in the wee small hours," and miles davis' "kind of blue" that i can't think of in terms of individual songs that would definitely be on here otherwise...

Tainted Love is not a Marilyn Manson's song. It is a song composed by Ed Cobb. It was originally recorded in 1964 by Gloria Jones, and later made popular when covered in 1981 by Soft Cell. It has since been covered by numerous other groups. One of them is Marilyn Manson.
