Top 10 Favourite Songs
My favourite songs of all time. |
| 1 | Radiohead
No Surprises
This song just takes me on a journey every time I hear it. The production and the sheer...blissfulness of the music is incredible. |
| 2 | Thrice
The Earth Will Shake
The best Thrice song, purely because of the contrast of brutality and poignance which just throws me every time. |
| 3 | Alexisonfire
Tonight I'm Gone
Yes, it is a cover of a Moneen song, but that doesn't make it any less effective. The 3 vocalists are used to perfection here. |
| 4 | Deftones
Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)
The perfect Deftones song. It has all of that dissonance and aggression but still a sense of life and hope. Wonderful. |
| 5 | Weezer
Undone (The Sweater Song)
Better days for this band. All I need to say really. |
| 6 | Protest the Hero
Heretics & Killers
Technically masterful, yet still with enough of a pop sensibility to make it accessible. |
| 7 | Red Hot Chili Peppers
Breaking The Girl
The only Chili's song where Kiedis' voice doesn't detract from the musical experience. The tribal drumming also helps! |
| 8 | Miles Davis
So What
First jazz song played to me as a child. I grew up with this song. |
| 9 | The King Blues
What If Punk Never Happened
The words of this song are so beautiful, they defy words. Stirring stuff. |
| 10 | Kanye West
Two Words
Kanye West, Mos Def, Freeway. End of story. |
