    can't just narrow it down to one:

    killing in the name - rage against the machine
    fuck da police - public enemy
    i wanna be your lover - prince
    edge of seventeen - stevie nicks
    supreme supreme - blackstar

    okay, maybe it's not a #1 all-time favorite song for me, but it sounds soooo good this raining morning. and mp3 embed land is not so africa-rich, so this is a nice change
    Carn, I feel you 100% with the ska and early Clash selections

    Thanks pitu, although that Clash song is actually from Combat Rock (an under-rated album). ;)

    Mainly because I just listened to them on Pandora radio (http://www.pandora.com/)...

    Sweet Jane - Velvet Underground

    Mother - Pink Floyd

    Was that the Boards of Canada song you were referring to, jeffrey? The embedded player doesn't seem to work within a quote.

    Yep, that particular BOC (not to be confused with woot.com BOC) is right in the same vein as Portishead.

    As for quoting the embedded player, flash doesn't do as well as an nth hierarchichal loading element, so note that it just takes a bit longer to load in things like iframes and quoted areas, that get loaded *last* in the page.

    So it's there, but yeah, took forever to load in.

    Sorry 'bout that. I will be more careful next time. :)

    Combat Rock is indeed the exact moment I walked out on the Clash.
    although I remember that song.
    I bet even their later less good stuff sounds good now...

    It's Saturday night, but I couldn't find any good P-Funk on skreem....

    I love that Iggy Pop song, pitu.

    Btw, if you can't find what you're looking for on SkreemR, you should check SongZa or SeeqPod. Sometimes a song will be on one but not the others.[/i]

    I can never answer this question. Of all time? That's impossible for me to decide upon! So here's one's that I've loved since I was a wee lad and all i knew of music was what my parent's played in the house.

    Simon & Garfunkel - The Only Living Boy in New York
    The Seekers - A World Of Our Own
    The Clash - Rudie Can't Fail
    Neil Young - The Needle and the Damage Done
    Fleetwood Mac - Second Hand news
    Derek & the Dominos - Bell Bottom Blues
    Nico - These Days

    this song does rule but omg, what a pain in the ass to play on the radio! I love it and would play it anyway, but I would basically have to kill it halfway through before the 'fuck you' portion started. which is, frankly, a great component to the song, though I just loved the bass work, so any part is worth hearing.

    here's a real decent sample of the lame indie type music I like

    its not all indie, but it does include most of my fave songs. Sorry that its not "one song" but I love listening to peoples playlists so I figured I'd post it :)

    This thread is a great way to discover music you may not normally listen to. It's interesting though that I was worried everyone would think my choices were totally lame and then Carmen posted her playlist. It's not lame if you like it, Carmen!

    Good stuff on here.

    I almost forgot My wasted friends by Ike Reilly. I can't find a full version to embed (yet), but if you run across it, it's a great song.

    re: the peaches song. sounds like it's a live version but I'm too lazy to find the studio version. unfortunately, she kinda blows a lyric a bit and she sounds stoned out of her mind, but interestingly, the lyrics are much clearer in the live version than in the studio version. very unusual.

    Drano, you are aware that Swervedriver is coming to town, no?

    (I ask because I live under a rock myself and miss stuff like that all the time.)

    Also. DrJ. Tackhead. Yay!!!

    Can't really narrow it down to one either, but right now I am looking for "Prize" by Kitchens of Distinction... unsuccessfully.

    How bout some Unrest?

    Nice! Perfect Teeth is one of my favorite albums!



    I just wish I could find links for "Cath Carroll" and "Six Layer Cake" from that album.

    Without a doubt: McCartney's "Maybe I'm Amazed". My fave ever.
    (Any of the live versions will do.)
