There is only one song: Folsom Prison Blues.

All others are simply melodic shadows of Folsom Prison Blues.

I believe sleepign village is the last song on their first album. I would rank that as the best song of all time. It has such an other wordly feeling, I have heard it literally thousands of times, and I think it still gets better, every time.

And tws, check out the flower travellin band, look for the album called satori, peace.

[The Willow Sword]

Yes indeed it is my favorite black sabbath song. When i was a kid i used to go to sleep at night listening to that song. So it has a sentimental value for me, that song. I will check out that album you mentioned.

Peace, TWS

In no particular order:

Cat People: Putting Out Fire - David Bowie
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Breathe Slow - Atmosphere
Bela Lugosi's Dead - Bauhaus
Fifteen Feet of Pure White Snow - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
The Rage of the Angels - Jedi Mind Tricks
Harvest Moon - Neil Young
Betterman - Pearl Jam
All Apologies - Nirvana
California Uber Alles (version from In God We Trust Inc.) - Dead Kennedies

That seems to be a good list...

[RUFNTUFGIRL]

I have been trying to limit this. Though my list is much more lively than the above. I tried to pick ten I would not tire from hearing and it is difficult. I almost need sub groups. I will have to cut it down more! I know you'll be holding your breath for my list

[Nick Forrer]

Preliminary list off the top of my head of my current favs

'Take you on a cruise' Interpol
'Rider on a wheel' Nick Drake
'Cant stand me now' Libertines
'Yes' Manic Street Preachers
'The predatory wasp of the palisades is out to get us' Sufjan Stevens'
'Ticket to ride' Beatles
'Gimme shelter' Stones
'Waterloo sunset' Kinks
'Travel is dangerous' Mogwai
'North country girl' Bob Dylan

[Su Lin]

Here goes, in no particular order

All is full of love- Bjork
Dead Souls - Joy Division
Stay Together - Suede (or The London Suede if you like!)
Cold Water Music - AIM
Windowlicker- Aphex Twin
Space Oddity - David Bowie
Misread - Kings of Convenience
(Song for my) Sugar Spun Sister - Stone Roses
Fruit Tree -Nick Drake
Midnight in a Perfect World - DJ Shadow

My 10 favourite, for today anyway!

[BlueTravesty]

Under the Bridge - The Red Hot Chili Peppers
Welcome Home- Coheed and Cambria
Roundabout- YES
Just Tonight- Jimmy Eat World
So Long Self- MercyMe
Life After Death and Taxes- Relient K
Town With No Cheer- Tom Waits
Katamari On the Rocks- Katamari Fortissimo Damacy
Disco*Prince- We Love Katamari OST
Lazarus- Porcupine Tree

This list changes at least every hour or so, but that's what I'm willing to put down in writing for now. I'm sure someone can think of "better songs" or "better groups." But I'm sticking to that for now.

[TaiChiBob]

Hey you need to respect the classic music as that is what most of these bands TODAY have modeled their creativity on. There will never be another era like the 70's music era. the creativity in lyrics and music style from ALL genres of music during that time have influenced the artists of today.


Peace,TWS


one of the albums i forgot to mention in my favorites is "Talking Heads: Remain in light".

[Nick Forrer]

Here goes, in no particular order

Stay Together - Suede (or The London Suede if you like!)

Fruit Tree -Nick Drake

Good choices. Although I personally prefer 'so young' or 'Heroin' to 'stay together'. Can't argue with the Nick Drake choice though. Was between that, 'at the chime of a city clock' and what I eventually chose.

[RUFNTUFGIRL]

No I don't mean it like that my list in creation is playful in comparison to what is posted. I have a hard time narrrowing it down to ten. Tune in tomorrow same Bat station, same Bat time, etc...
