Flickerstick (They're softer) - Beautiful, Got a Feeling
Bruce Springsteen (Classic. Amazing.) - umm.. any of them really Thunder Road, Born to Run, Darlington County, Growin' Up, Glory Days.. I could go on, and on, and on...
Green Day (The old stuff is definately best. )- Anything off the earlier albums.. Nimrod, Dookie, Warning, etc.

I was about to do Bob Dylan, Yngwie Malmsteen, AC/DC, and more but I'm too tired.

Damn, very good thread. Maybe too simple to be made a sticky, but I'll remember this.

The songs that pump me up the most: Achilles Last Stand [Led Zeppelin], Endless, Nameless [Nirvana], or Master of Puppets [Metallica].

Most relaxing song ever: Venus in Furs [Velvet Underground].

The Cure's "Lullaby" and "The Figurehead" also relax me a lot. Bringing me down to that "remote control three feet away is too far to get up" type of mood.

The guitar solo in that song may very well be better than sex...


Okay, maybe not. But it's the closest thing to it.

AC/DC
Van Halen
The Clash
The Temptations
Marvin Gaye
The Blues Brothers (May I suggest Briefcase Full of Blues)
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Strawberry Letter 23 - The Brothers Johnson

Anything by the BEATLES Or John LENNON

Looks great guys, keep it going.

Try Radiohead. They might take a while to really get into, but once you do, it'll be some of the best music you'll ever hear.

Nirvana--Frances Farmer
Lithium

Replacements--pretty much all their music is good.

Neil Young--Tonight's The Night, the whole album.

Gun Club-Fire of Love-the whole album

My Bloody Valentine-Loveless-the whole album

Jesus and Mary Chain-Head On

Breeders-Hellbound, most of Last Splash album is good.

Dream Syndicate-Days of Wine and Roses album

x-Los Angeles, and made a great retrospective a few years ago.

Meat Puppets-Up On the Sun

Massive Attack-Protection

Velvet Underground-Sweet Jane

Jonathan Richman-Roadruner

Stevie Ray VAugn-Texas Flood

Other interesting bands include Pixies, Throwing Muses, Volcano Suns, Husker Dü, Everclear, Clash, Joy Divison and New order, U2, Little Feat, I could go on and on, the 80's were a good time!

anything by radiohead, nirvana.


oh and my favourite song of the moment...dare by the gorillaz

It would be good too if you also posted the type of music these bands played.

As far as Frank Sinatra, he kind of defines his genre; Big Bang/Swing/Crooners, I dont know, it has a lot of names.

I'll list some of my fave bands/fave songs when I have more time later on. But for now I wish to correct something.

In Don Pappo Napolitano's post he listed Def Leppard-Put some sugar on me. The correct title is Pour some sugar on me.

I love their new single, Dirty Harry. It's brilliant!

I don't like Gorillaz at all anymore, but do they have some fascination with Clint Eastwood?

I remember the song I used to like was called "Clint Eastwood," and now they have one called "Dirty Harry."

Now that I have more time here are some of my fave bands with some of their best songs.

Iron Maiden
Powerslave
Fear Of The Dark
Brave New World
Number Of The Beast
Two Minutes to Midnight

Iced Earth
Dracula
Angels Holocaust
I Died For You
Stormrider
Damien
Plus many many others

Judas Priest
Breaking The Law
Love Bites
You've Got Another Thing Comin
Screaming For Vengeance

Overkill
Elimination
Hello From The Gutter

Nightwish
Actually I suggest anything fom this band their one of my faves. if you like operatic like vocals that is, since their lead singer(make that ex-lead singer. Since Tarja Turunen was kicked out)was trained as an opera singer.

Here is their website. to check them out.

Nightwish


Metallica
Seek & Destroy, actually pretty much anything from their 1st 4 albums


Well those are some of my fave bands. I could list many others to check out.

Anything for Frank Sinatra is good, too. You forgot New York, New York and Cheek to Cheek.

Download a song called "New Born" by Muse. It's amazing.

"Hurricane" by Bob Dylan

All right, anything by:
AC/DC
Bryan Adams
Aerosmith
The Beastie Boys
The Beatles
Bif Naked
Andrea Bocelli
Eric Clapton

My favorite Bob Dylan song has to be either "Masters of War" or "All Along the Watchtower."

Another great band to listen to is Iggy Pop and the Stooges. They were a huge influence to punk rock.

A few songs
I Wanna Be Your Dog, Penetration, Search and Destroy, Gimme Danger, Raw Power, 1969

Right, sorry for the mistake...
