Right now, at this very moment, it's "Your Silent Face" by those despicable Nazistic pigs New Order:

Quote:
A thought that never changes
Remains a stupid lie
It's never been quite the same
No hearing or breathing
No movement, no colour
Just silence

Rise and fall of shame
A search that shall remain
We asked you what you'd seen
You said you didn't care

Sound formed in a vacuum
May seem a waste of time
It's always been just the same
No hearing or breathing
No movement, no lyrics
Just nothing

The sign that leads the way
The path we can not take
You caught me at a bad time
So why don't you piss off

It seems like a slam on other great songs for me to say these are my favorites, but I guess I have to pick a few for the sake of this thread. And I won't put my username on the list because that's obvious.

"She Says" Ani DiFranco
"Slide" Ani DiFranco
"Falling" Donna Lewis
"Sara" Fleetwood Mac"
"There's a Place" The Beatles
"Outside the Rain" Stevie Nicks
"Nightswimming" R.E.M.
"All I Want" Toad the Wet Sprocket
"That's Exactly What I Mean" Kim Richey
"Les Derniers Seront Les Premiers" Celine Dion
"Farther" Third Eye Blind
"Seven Seas" Sarah Brightman
"History Will Teach Us Nothing" Sting

I tried not to put many Mac songs in there because it's obvious that I love them. But SMAP is my favorite Lindsey song.

You totally figured out her harmony? That's my hardest song to practice. And yes, of course, Stevie all the way. I have never heard a more beautiful or intersting harmony. i'd like to add i'm speaking of Insider, Live.

Okay, now the slightly easier ones:

Same here. I have a hard time with the harmony. It's SO fun to sing the song but I don't have the ears for it.

Cool Well...

this would be hard for me to say since trying to list favorite songs (Which change depending on what mood I am currently in) would be like trying to list which of my toes/fingers is my favorite digit
