Really simple, in your opinion, what are the 5 greatest songs of all time?
1. 'Never Tear Us Apart' by INXS 2. 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen 3. 'Like A Rolling Stone' by Bob Dylan 4. 'Crash Into Me' by Dave Matthews Band 5. 'With Or Without You' by U2
Honorable mentions to 'Stairway To Heaven' by Led Zeppelin and 'Imagine' by John Lennon.
Obviously opinions will be very different, which is why this thread is so interesting.

I really go through moods with songs.... one minute I'll consider one song my "favorite" and another I'll consider something else...
Here's a list of the top 5 songs of mine at the moment:
1. "Nightrain" by Guns N' Roses 2. "Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam 3. "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John 4. "Always" by Bon Jovi 5. "Back In The Saddle" by Aerosmith
Ask me next week, and at least 3/5 will probably change.

Johnny Appleseed is fantastic, thank you for HBO and John from Cincinnati for introducing me to that song. It's a live standard for me, for sure. I'm pretty sure Joe wrote it while the Clash was still together. But yeah, I rip it off any chance I get.

"Can I Get A........" by Jay Z "Semicharmed Life" by Third Eye Blind "Soul Meets Body" by Deathcab For Cutie "Bend and Not Break" by Dashboard Confessional "Hit Em Up" by 2Pac
All of those are classic IMO (and they're karaoke staples), although right now I'm listening to a lot of Ying Yang Twins and I can't get that "Umbrella" song out of my head.
