Great album.
Still got my copy! The cover had them playing croquet with heads.
It was also on the 99p Genesis Live album - brilliant version.

I can’t really pick a best because music has been my life but my personal favourite song I think is Sound of Silence (maybe) but my favourite piece of music is (again maybe) is Awaken by Yes. Truly beautiful and almost transcends music into the realms of something spiritual.

Just two of many. I used to have a collection of over 500 albums of various kinds of music plus all the music I loved that I didn’t buy. How can you choose? I can’t even choose a favourite band or artist let alone song. Love these threads though - thanks for kicking it off Steve.

Very difficult to say what a favourite song is, changes with time and moods, but I’ve always enjoyed listening to “ The Friends of Mr Cairo “ by Jon and Vangelis. The story of the silver screen.

Soapbox Hero, Supertramp, always enjoyed as well as Hotel California and Severn Bridges road, The Eagles.

Jesamine by the Casuals, heard it for the first time in my favourite pub, The Mermaid, in Ramsey Isle of Man.

Great album, the title track is fantastic but also Beside is beautiful, Mayflower is haunting and of course it contained the original version of State of Independence, which became such a massive hit for Donna Summer.

Great piece. Saw them live supporting that album. The coda after the vocals have finished is actually really weird timing.

Aside: once got p!ssed at a party in London with their drummer but didn't recognise him. Someone told me the day after - Bob Siebenberg (or Bob C Benberg as he was credited on the album). American guy even though they were English. Nice chap as I recall. We didn't speak about music once.

In common with most people, the answer's going to vary from day to day, morning to afternoon, depending on mood ... :D

1) Roll me away - Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band
2) The Pretender - Jackson Browne
3) Suspicious Minds - Elvis Presley
4) How she could sing the Wildwood flower - Emmylou Harris
5) Tes Tendres Annees - Silvie Vartan
6) Love Hurts - Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris
7) I'll fly away - Allison Krauss
8) Takin' it easy - Eagles
9) She's got you - Patsy Cline
10) Perfect Day - Lou Reed

Tomorrow's list would be entirely different, I suspect ...

I thought State of Independence by Donna Summer was the original,it's a brilliant cover in that case,must check out the original,it's a lovely song.

You must be of my generation,Heathclaret. Jesamine, by The Casuals was a massive hit in 1968. They followed it up with 'Toy' which flopped and nothing was heard of them again. Just wondering how many times this must have happened throughout the decades.
I chose White Rabbit yesterday, probably still would today but so many songs in so many years will always be contenders to it.

The album by Jon and Vangelis was out long before the Donna Summer hit bud and the writing credits on the album say Anderson/Vangelis. You're right though it is a brilliant cover and in some ways better than the original, the 'choir' on it contained some of the biggest names around at the time including, I believe, Stevie Wonder.

Sometimes covers become so big that they overshadow the original. How many times has someone performed 'Tina Turner's Proud Mary'? The original was of course by Creedence Clearwater Revival, they even had a hit with it themselves years before as a single not just an album song. Don't suppose John Fogerty will be moaning though, the amount of airplay it still gets will be helping to swell his already fairly handsome income.

By the way if you want to hear the original check it out on The Friends of Mr Cairo album, but be sure to listen to the whole album because it's not even the best thing on it. 'Beside' is just beautiful and 'Mayflower' is simply wonderful, a tail of pilgrims going off into space in search of a new world, I love the fade out that gives it the feel of something disappearing into the vastness of space with a static filled voice simply repeating 'Mayflower recounting here, 10-4, 10-4, 1-4 out'. It's one of the longest fade outs you will here.

Ferry Corsten's remix of Adagio for Strings. That's certainly up there with one of the best I've heard.

Megadeth have done better stuff than that though.
The 'Youthanasia' album is brilliant!

'Ace of Spades' by Motorhead and 'Paranoid' by Black Sabbath are good shouts for the award of the thread topic... in my unbiased opinion, of course!

I chose White Rabbit yesterday, probably still would today but so many songs in so many years will always be contenders to it.
I moved to the Isle of Man in 1980, and started going to the Mermaid about a year after that. First heard Jesamine when one of the regulars put it on the juke box and thought it was a great tune.

Knocking on heavens door Guns N Roses. We had a band at school called Cobweb, lead guitarist and vocals was a lad called Graham Chadwick, first time I heard the song was at a concert they gave.

Racing in the streets. Springsteen. Great track

The list goes on and on.

Although I have voted already for my fave song (earlier in this thread) one song that really lifts my spirits as it's usually playing just as I enter the Turf is 'Times like these', It really sums up the excitement and anticipation that the next couple of hours holds and the history and footsteps that have been taken by my parents/grandparents in walking into this great football ground.

Arctric Monkeys is always a good shout but Steve oh Steve - The Smiths? Actually one of my most hated bands. Never quite sure how they got such status but like I've always said music is totally subjective. I always found them dire in the extreme and Morrisey needs to see a doctor. Never understood the 'lupins thing' either, unless he was a big fan of Denis Moor (etc etc).
