your #1 song

[cgride555]

So i checked out my itunes the other day in depth (its 2000 songs deep, and thats after I had to make a lot of space) because I was curious what my most played song was. I was surprised to find- Coming Undone by Korn. WTF!!!! Don't get me wrong its a great tune, but it takes #1!!!! Granted the thing is on shuffle most of the time, that was unexpected. So, out of curiosity, what is everybody else's #1? Furthermore, did you expect that song to be so? Look at your itunes/ media player (or what have you) and see what your play count deems #1. If you have play count disabled, go to preferences and turn it on. I think I'm not the only one who would be surprised.

'Stairway to Heaven'
By Led Zeppelin.

Seriously, that song just moves me in so many ways.

#1? I only have 600 some songs, but you can't ask me to pick only 1 out of all of 'em...

Given that, I'll pick one song I like quite a bit.

Edit:

I feel bad for not putting up any Nightwish. Here's one of my favorite Nightwish songs (With Tarja in it.)

EditEdit: To avoid future "Your post isn't what OP asked" quotes, my iTunes doesn't like me screwing with filenames so my most listened to song apparently has only 3 plays, so I picked some of my favorite songs.

I like you buddy. I thought something Zepp would take #1 for me too. Bron-y-aur stomp took 3rd, but is still 2 behind Korn. I fail apparently.

Hmmm it changes a fair bit.

Into Slayer at the moment so I'm going to go with Dead Skin Mask...

Cheery I know

 

[LongAndShort]

Thunderstruck. No, I wasn't surprised. Highway to Hell a close second.

Seeing 'em performed live on Thursday. I'm fucking stoked!

Sick, Sick, Sick - Queens Of The Stone Age

not surprised as I went through a massive QOTSA phase a while back, Sick, Sick, Sick being my favourite

top 20 consists of around 15 by bluejuice though, This is somewhat surprising, but makes me happy none-the-less

My favourite song... Acourding to itunes it's War? by System of a down but I am not sure... At the moment I think it is Empty walls by Serj tankian.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

The song that comes up at the #1 position on my MP3 is Naraku no Hana.
Give me a minute and I'll edit it into my post...

Spoiler: Here we go, didn't take long

Granted, my MP3 is old, and I can find no way of setting the order of the songs besides the very limited 'Program' option.
I have no real way of telling if that is the most listened to, but chances are that it may be, because I enjoy the song, so I'm taking a shot in the dark.
Just to keep up with all you iPod people...

My itunes is currently located on my almost completely broken 6 year old emac, so I don't really know. I imagine my highest played song is some garbage from back when I was in elementary school. Although I think my itunes is a bit buggy, in that some songs I know I've only listened to a couple of times are listed as having played over a hundred.

My current favourite and most played song might be Assassin by Muse. The vocals are in-fucking-credible.

"Afterlife" by Avenged Sevenfold
After hearing the lyrics, I decided that it was the song I wanted to be played at my funeral.
But if I see someone head-banging while I'm a ghost at my funeral, I'll haunt their asses forever lol.

The point is that you don't get to pick, it goes off play count, but I like the song you picked. Female vocals with a hard beat are always appreciated in my book. Heres my personal favorite in that category

I would have embedded the video, but it didn't work for some reason

Dude!!!! I swear I quoted before I saw your repost. Way to be! Nightwish is the shite!!!!

According to my Last.FM profile my most played track overall is just not the accoustic version.

Just looking at the last 6 months it's

According to itunes, it's a tie between "Dark of the matinee" and "Ulysses", which are both Franz Ferdinand songs

Good call! I'm loving this post!

I don't use Itunes. I'm still a dinosaur.

The Start of Something Beautiful, by Porcupine Tree. I can't find a good video of it on YouTube, but take my word for it that it's my #1 song for a reason.

Or better yet, don't take my word for it and give it a listen yourself. Porcupine Tree is criminally unheard of.

Near the Water by Hitoshi Sakimoto.

It's my fav song alongside Motorcycle Emptiness by the Manics so I'm not surprised.

I have about 60,000 songs on my itunes. And that's not even all the songs saved on my harddrive.
