Came very close to making my earlier list, good choice.

I think my favorite song of his would have to be "little wing", if for no reason other than that you don't often hear Hendrix get his ass kicked on his own song.

SRV has a lot of good material, to say the least. Picking one song sucks, which is part of why I haven't replied to the OP yet.

As Diablo has already said, this is not even close to my favorite 25 list. Diversity is crucial. For many bands, I picked a unique song rather than there best, (a good example is Operation Spirit by Live rather than Lightning Crashes).

Better than Ezra - Desperately Wanting (Live from House of Blues rather than the studio track)
Black Lab - Ten Million Years (I HIGHLY recommend downloading their only album- Your Body Above Me)
Counting Crows - Mr. Jones
Darude - Bitter Sweet
Green Day - Basket Case
Johnny Cash - Hurt
K's Choice - Not an Addict
Linkin Park - Faint
Live - Operation Spirit (A live version rather than studio)
Local H - Bound for the Floor (I expect multiple people to errata their lists and add this song after seeing it on my list)
Muse - Citizen Erased
Muse - Sunburn
Nirvana - Dumb
Nobuo Uematsu - Final Fantasy Female Medley (this was actually put together by Michael Haung based on Uematsu's work)
The Offspring - The Kid's Aren't Alright
Our Lady Peace - Life
Our Lady Peace - Superman's Dead
Pearl Jam - Yellow Ledbetter (The version w/ the most audible lyrics)
R.E.M - Orange Crush
RHCP - Under the Bridge (I'm very glad to see this song on so many lists)
Radiohead - Paranoid Android
Sarah Mclachlan - Fear
Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm
Story of the Year - Until the Day I Die
U2 - One

I might need to boot a song to make room for
In a Daydream - Freddy Jones Band

Somebody mentioned Sweet Melissa - Allman Brothers which I forgot to put on my 'just missed' list. Possibly is 26th or 25th.

Fortunate Son by CCR is on the just missed as well (I think Diablo mentioned this one).


Fatman and a couple others have been talking Stone Roses and James. There's a big difference between those two bands: basically, The Stone Roses are good... and James sucks.
I've always hated them for some reason and just don't understand why so many like them.

I even saw them in concert in London in 1989 or 1990 or so.
All about Eve, Lush and James all opening for The Cure.
Yes...it was a REALLY good show, even though it was about 100 degrees (hottest summer ever in England I believe) and James sucked.



Somehow I'm differing from Diablo's ideas on this..because my 25 'favorite' songs pretty much coincide with the 25 songs I would take if I could only have 25 of them.

although I guess I did make sure to not take more than 2 from a given artist under the stipulation....and want to spread things out genre-wise I suppose...so it might differ a little bit.
