Posted: 1/18/06 at 9:58amThis is like Lay's Potato Chips for me. I love all the songs you've already mentioned. What about "House of the Holy," or "Kashmir" by Led Zepplin? Or "Love Her Madly" by The Doors? Or "Salt of the Earth" by the Stones?

Posted: 1/18/06 at 10:02amYou're absolutely right, katy, but I just picked my favorite song of the moment. Paint it Black got me a speeding ticket a few weeks ago, and it's still my current fav.

Posted: 1/18/06 at 10:07amI like that interpretation of the question, Shameless. In which case I'll go with Roadhouse Blues by the Doors. At the moment, it's the song that'll get me up and moving.

It's nearly impossible for me to even narrow it down, but here are the first few things that popped into my head:
"I Still Haven't Found What I am Looking For" by U2
"Sunday Bloody Sunday" by U2
"Pride (In the Name of Love)" by U2
Notice a pattern?

Posted: 1/18/06 at 10:22amGee... do you like U2?
#14re: All-time favorite rock and roll song

They're a pretty decent little band.
I feel like I should add 3 non-U2 songs now to balance the Force.
"Hurricane" by Bob Dylan
"For What It's Worth" by Buffalo Springfield
"Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd
