The UK magazine Q has done a list of the 1001 best songs ever, which is questionable to say the least. What's everyones best song ever, or Top 10? Because they said No1 was U2s 'One'. Heres my top 10, off the top of my head so I'm sure I'll miss something out:

1. Radiohead - Karma Police
2. Beck - Loser
3. Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
4. REM - Losing My Religion
5. David Bowie - Life On Mars
6. The Stranglers - Golden Brown
7. Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
8. Unknown  :?: - Popcorn (I don't own it, but I love it)
9. Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box
10. Massive Attack - Teardrop

I might be back to edit that acctually  Cheesy  but i have to go eat now

i'd have to say one of my current favorites is the Aquabats- cold raw gold song, I just love the lyrics, "over and over and over again, my mind told my brain to get off of my face"

Here's my Top 10 List of the greatest songs of all time.  It was a tough call, but I managed to narrow my selection down to these choice cuts:

1. Strawberry Fields Forever
    (The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour)
2. Frank Stallone's Stoner Party
    (Frank Stallone - Frank Stallone Goes Ape Shit)
3. Society Steals My Shoes
    (Benj Edwards - Request-A-Song.com - December 2002)
4. Stayin' Alive
    (Bee Gees - Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack)
5. Tiv Watson Goes To Work
    (Tiv Watson Band - One)
6. I Am...I Said
    (Neil Diamond - Stones)
7. Steel Flanks
    (Roster Jiminez - Trial By Ire)
8. Limber Up, All Ye Faithful

They put a bad name to Japanese music. Try Ayumi and TM Revolution. And I like Linkin Park; you don't have to.

I see no Black Sabbath on that list OVNS!  I think you can squeeze "War Pigs" on there can't you?
