Title: The Greatest Song Ever.....
Description: Who do you think it is?
british snob - April 9, 2005 09:19 PM (GMT)
Im just curious, what do you think the best song ever is.
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
This song broke all the rules. It was 7 minutes long and it had two styles of music; Rock n Opera. Also, the lyrics dont make sense! If you havent heard this song, listen to it this instant.
Mama, just killed a man,
put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger now hes dead.
Mama, life has just begun. And now ive gone and thrown it all away.
Mama, oohhh, didnt mean to make you cry
if im not back again this time tomorrow, carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters.
Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine, bodies aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody, i have to go, got to leave you all behind to face the truth.
Mama, oohhh, I dont want to die but sometimes i wish id never been born at all.

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home Oh, won't you please take me home
Just an urchin livin' under the street, I'm a hard case that's tough tobeat
I'm your charity case, so buy me somethin' to eat, I'll pay youat another time
Take it to the end of the line
Ragz to richez or so they say, ya gotta-keep pushin' for thefortune and fame
It's all a gamble when it's just a game, ya treat it like acapital crime
Everybody's doing their time
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here I can't quite remember
The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette but I can't see
Tell me who you're gonna believe
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
So far away, so far away, so far away, so far away
Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester with a broken heart
He said- turn me around and take me back to the start
I must be losin' my mind- "Are you blind?"
I've seen it all a million times
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home Oh, won't you please take me home
Oh I wanna go, I wanna go, oh won't you please take me home
Oh won't you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Oh, won't you please take me home
Need I say any more? I also like Queen songs, especially don't stop me now. That Queen mania thing that me and BS were watching on TV just now was pure class.

Meet your maker
Rising from the ashes
Like a phoenix to the sky
So intense, so glorious...
Uncontrollable desire
For our souls
The great lawgiver
So high and mighty
The immaculate deception
A taker of life
With unbridled aggression
Striking down on the disbelievers
Savage - Messiah
Take us higher
Savage - Messiah
Take us now!
Blessed in blood
We are reborn in hate
Thousands of spirits cry
So intense, so glorious...
Uncontrollable desire
For our souls
The great Messiah
So high and mighty
ArchEnemy - Savage Messiah..... second best song on this whole :censored: planet!!!!

Dead as dead can be
The doctor tells me
But I just can't believe him
Ever the optimistic one
I'm sure of your ability
To become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me
Don't play dead 'cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say
You disappoint me
Maybe you're better off this way
Leaning over you here
Cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection
Of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become my perfect enemy
Wake up
(Why can’t you?)
And face me
(Come on now)
Don't play dead
(Don’t play dead)
'Cause maybe
(‘Cause maybe)
Someday
(Someday)
I’ll walk away and say
You disappoint me
Maybe your better off this way
Maybe your better off this way (x3)
Your better off this (x2)
Maybe your better off...
Wake up
(Why can’t you?)
And face me
(Come on now)
Don't play dead
(Don’t play dead)
'Cause maybe
(‘Cause maybe)
Someday
(Someday)
I’ll walk away and say
You :censored: disappoint me
Maybe your better off this WAY!
Go ahead and play dead
(GO!)
I know that you can hear this
(GO!)
Go ahead and play dead
(GO!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(WAKE UP!)
Why can't you turn and face me?
(YEAH!)
You :censored: ing disappoint me
Passive-aggressive bull :censored: ...
A Perfect Circle - Passive THE BEST SONG :censored: ING EVER!!!!

Eye Of The Tiger
Survivor
Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger
Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds, till we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger
Risin' up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive
It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he's watchin' us all with the eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger

Sin, that first song you posted fits the perfect definition of grotesque.
Take Me Out
Franz Ferdinand
So if you're lonely,
You know i'm here waiting for you,
I'm just a crosshair,
I'm just a shot away from you.
And if you leave here,
You leave me broken shattered alive.
I'm just a crosshair
I'm just a shot..then we can die
Ooohahhhhh
I know I wont be leaving here...with you
I say don't you know
You say you don't know
I say... take me out
I say you don't show
Don't move time is slow
I say... take me out
I say you don't know
You say you don't go
I say... take me out
I know I wont be leaving here (with you)
I know I wont be leaving here
I know I wont be leaving here (with you)
I know I wont be leaving here with you
I say don't you know
You say you don't know
I say... take me out
If I move this could die
Eyes move this can die
C'mon...take me out
I know I wont be leaving here (with you)
I know I wont be leaving here
I know I wont be leaving here (with you)
I know I wont be leaving here with you

wen u say franz ferdinand, do u mean that dude from WWI?
Simayan - April 17, 2005 07:14 PM (GMT)
Nope. I think he's Scottish, but someone told me he's sweed. They're still a band, by the way they look Id say mid-late twenties. But I dont have many details on them.
Im Not Last - April 17, 2005 07:26 PM (GMT)
mabe their related...or national extremists

haha, take me out is for the commercials for the PSP, great song.
Simayan - April 18, 2005 04:27 PM (GMT)
Yea, but they botched it when the played it, cutting out most of the good parts.
ralf peters - April 23, 2005 01:54 PM (GMT)
Franz Ferdinand have some of the best songs around at the moment, but I do not think they are the best ever.
Simayan - April 23, 2005 05:07 PM (GMT)
The best songs EVER are classical music in my opinion.
Worst style of music- Rap.
No notes, no trying to reacha certain pitch, no important insturments.
Just a bunch of people trying to act tough as they rime and talk. Not sing; talk. (One of these days, I hope apart of their 'bling' eventually swings around as they're lifting their arm up and down and breaks their face, LOL)
british snob - April 23, 2005 08:46 PM (GMT)
I take it back, bohemian rhapsody isnt the best song in the world. Bat out of hell by meatloaf is:
The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There’s a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright
There’s evil in the air and there’s thunder in the sky
And a killer’s on the bloodshot streets
And down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh I swear I saw a young boy
Down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat
Oh baby you’re the only thing in this whole world
That’s pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There’s always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it’s over you know
We’ll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight’s shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I’ll come crawling on back to you
I’m gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And we’re all about to see the light
Nothing ever grows in this rotten old hole
And everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks
And nothing really rolls
And nothing’s ever worth the cost
And I know that I’m damned if I never get out
And maybe I’m damned if I do
But with any other beat I got left in my heart
You know I’d rather be damned with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
If gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you
Oh baby you’re the only thing in this whole world
That’s pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There’s always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it’s over you know
We’ll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight’s shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I’ll come crawling on back to you
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I’ll come crawling on back to you
I can see myself
Tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is rough but my soul is ripe
And no one’s gonna stop me now
I gotta make my escape
But I can’t stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden curve until it’s way too late
I never see the sudden curve until it’s way too late
Then I’m dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Then I’m dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Still beating
Breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell

Its gotta be MC Hammer with... "cant touch this"
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
My, my, my music hits me so hard
Makes me say "Oh my Lord"
Thank you for blessing me
With a mind to rhyme and two hype feet
It feels good, when you know you're down
A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat, uh, you can't touch
I told you homeboy (You can't touch this)
Yeah, that's how we living and you know (You can't touch this)
Look at my eyes, man (You can't touch this)
Yo, let me bust the funky lyric (You can't touch this)
Fresh new kicks, advance
You gotta like that, now you know you wanna dance
So move, outta your seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it's rolling, hold on
Pump a little bit and let 'em know it's going on
Like that, like that
Cold on a mission so fall them back
Let 'em know, that you're too much
And this is a beat, uh, you can't touch
Yo, I told you (You can't touch this)
Why you standing there, man? (You can't touch this)
Yo, sound the bell, school is in, sucka (You can't touch this)
Give me a song or rhythm
Make 'em sweat, that's what I'm giving 'em
Now, they know
You talking about the Hammer
You talking about a show
That's hype, and tight
Singers are sweating so pass them a wipe
Or a tape, to learn
What's it gonna take in the 90's to burn
The charts? Legit
Either work hard or you might as well quit
That's the word because you know...
You can't touch this (x3)
Break it down! (Music breaks down)
Stop, Hammer time!
Go with the funk, it is said
That if you can't groove to this then
You probably are dead
So wave your hands in the air
Bust a few moves,
Run your fingers through your hair
This is it, for a winner
Dance to this and you're gonna get thinner
Move, slide your rump
Just for a minute let's all do the bump, bump, bump
Yeah... (You can't touch this)
Look, man (You can't touch this)
You better get hype, boy, because you know (You can't touch this)
Ring the bell, school's back in (You can't touch this)
Break it down! (Crazy bridge)
Stop, Hammer time!
Everytime you see me
The Hammer's just so hype
I'm dope on the floor and I'm magic on the mic
Now why would I ever stop doing this?
With others making records that just don't hit
I've toured around the world,
from London to the Bay
It's "Hammer, go Hammer, MC Hammer, yo Hammer"
And the rest can go and play
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
Now thats a song you can shake your :censored: too if you know what i mean eh? eh?! :lol:

Unfortunatly, Cant Touch This is kinda cliched. Still pretty good though...

She calls out to the man on the street
’sir, can you help me?
It’s cold and I’ve nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me? ’
He walks on, doesn’t look back
He pretends he can’t hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there
Oh think twice, it’s another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it’s just another day for you,
You and me in paradise
She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she’s been crying
She’s got blisters on the soles of her feet
Can’t walk but she’s trying
Oh think twice...
Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say
You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she’s been there
Probably been moved on from every place
’cos she didn’t fit in there
Oh think twice...
The ...'s lead on to the chorus.

There was a topic like this on the Runescape fourms, a rant of what RS is coming to.
Im Not Last - May 23, 2005 02:30 AM (GMT)
what does this have to do with anything?
Simayan - May 27, 2005 05:42 PM (GMT)
And you're asking me that question?
"Another Day in Paradise" was the name of a topic in the RS forums, witht eh song in it, showing how pathetic RS is these days. Yes, its on topic, just transferign thoughts. And since when did you care about gettingoff topic? Lol.
