Best Song Ever??

[Theodoric]

I'd say that no-one even closely approaches Schubert when you're talking about the best song ever. As he wrote over 600 of them, it makes a choice rather difficult but my personal vote is for Gretchen am Spinnrade, An die Musik or Ellens Gesang III (better known as Ave Maria).

What type of music are we limited to here? If there are no restrictions I would choose
1.) Sam Barber - Adagio for strings (or the vocal version agnus die, the main theme to homeworld) as this is the only song ever to bring a tear to my eye
2.) Safri Duo - Played alive (for the fact that it is the only song I have liked consistently since it was released 3 - 5 years ago, and it has such an amazing sound to it)
3.) The Darkness - I believe in a thing called love ( this song can im prove my playing performance on any on-line game for some reason , I remember my mate tearing me to shreds in C&C renegade until this song came up on my play-list, he never got a single good hit in after this as he never had time to shoot )

I love addagio for strings, but it was used much more effectively in the movie "Platoon" than it was in the game Homeworld.

In no particular order:-

Sweet home alabama - Lynard Skynard
This is how it feels - inspiral carpets
Behind blue eyes - Limp bizkit

The Hunt - New model army
Fortunate son - Credence clearwater revival
Crazy - Seal
