R&P: Do you think there is one song that we can all agree to liking?

Question

Do you think that all the regulars here could, in fact, agree on one song, and that nobody would be opposed to it?

I nominate "Comfortably Numb"...I don't think I've ever met another person who doesn't dig that song...

Do you agree with my choice?

Also, do you have any nominations of your own?

Answer 1

I don't reckon i count as a regular, but i definitely agree. Also in agreement with the rick rolling... lol =]



Comfortably numb is an incredible song, i would be surprised if you found someone who didn't like it!



Wow, i haven't been back on here in a month. A MONTH!! I feel so bad, i missed you guys... =/



Hope you had a great January, sorry i wasn't there!



=]

Answer 2

I'm not sure whether I'm considered a regular, but I ask a question every day or two, and do my best to answer a few questions afterwards. And I'd definitely agree with that choice, here are a few others:



Three Little Birds - Bob Marley

Hello Goodbye - The Beatles

La Bamba - Ritchie Valens



I could come up with many more, but I think the real challenge would be finding a song that's considerably lengthy that is a unanimously enjoyed tune. I'd say Stairway to Heaven but that's been called pretentious by some people... perhaps 2112?

Answer 3

I agree!

I nominate Hey Jude and Stairway to Heaven. Even people I know who really don't care for Led Zeppelin / Beatles love these songs.

Answer 4

Hey Stone!! XD



I'd agree with Comfortably Numb, for sure. What an awesome song :)



I've never met anyone who doesn't like it, either.

Answer 5

Slow Ride--Foghat

Roundabout--Yes

Wish You Were Here--Pink Floyd

Love Stinks--J. Geils Band

Sink The Pink--AC/DC

Answer 6

I say Free Bird & Stairway to Heaven. Dont like Comfortably Numb that much. Everyone says it has a great solo but I just dont hear it.

Answer 7

I'd like to second that. And add in:

One by Metallica

Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin

Kickstart My Heart by Motley Crue

Answer 8

Everybody loves Crazy Train by Ozzy!

Answer 9

nah, by the time pink floyd did the wall they were overly impressed with the harmonic overtones of their own flatulence. they lost a lot after wish you were here.



casey jones by the dead would be a good choice, but i doubt there is a song everyone can agree to.

Answer 10

I agree with you, too



(And with Ron Johns... got me too!)



My additional nomination is "Low Rider" by War...

Answer 11

As Time Goes By, it's a classical!

Answer 12

I second that =D

I also agree with Mike P's nominations!

Answer 13

i think that's a pretty good choice



i nominate i won't back down by tom petty...i've never met anyone who didn't like petty and i've never met anyone who thought that was a bad song...it's hard not to love it when it's so simple and easy

Answer 14

Hey, SCC



Great Choice!



"Imagine"

Answer 15

I love that song.



I nominate Bohemian Rhapsody by queen. I really don't know anyone that doesn't think that song is epic.

Answer 16

I like "Comfortably Numb" but my brother doesn't. He's a huge Floyd fan just like you and I but he says "some parts are just...stupid......"my hands felt just like two balloons"?...that's just plain dumb"



I'd like to nominate "Moonage Daydream" by David Bowie.

Answer 17

I love that song too. Great choice ♫Stone Cold Crazy♫!

Answer 18

That's a pretty good one, I like it, but I know a lot of people who aren't crazy about Pink Floyd. Screw them, right?



You're going to want to look for something with wide appeal; I'm nominating the following songs:



"Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin



"Born to Run" by Bruce Springsteen



"Hey Jude" by the Beatles



"Like a Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan (a bit daring there, I think)



"99 Luftballons" by Nena (okay, a weird departure, but I have a feeling about this one...probably a bad one...)

Answer 19

I like the song, but I don't think there are any that are universally liked.



Also second Boston's "More Than a Feeling"

and suggest:
