the most powerful song ever recorded.

My life is a weathered down shipwreck
Splitting at the seams, held together by memories and dreams
Every face I have seen, a stitch on my mind
On a shadow of a dream
And my heart is its cargo, a worn out old thing
Been dragged around this rock more times than you'd believe
To the east I call home
But the west, she is calling
From the north, to the south
Forever I'm drifting away
With more hope than fear
Put your head to my chest and you will hear
The sound of it beating
Is the sound of love leaving
The sound of it beating
Is the sound of the emptiness flooding in
Flooding in
It's the sound of the emptiness flooding in
And my life, it aches
And my heart, it breaks
And I just can't shake the feeling all I am is sinking
While one thousand eyes stare back at me
But the ones that I'd die for are the ones I can't see
Flooding in
It's the sound of the emptiness

Nope.

Really I think it has to be hallelujah or something classical. Anyway, decent link with top 25 plus reasons.

Most powerful song?
Close your eyes and listen to this

Imagine

Exited at 0:27!

haha that band is a third rate Soilwork clone with a terrible vocalist

next!

PANIS ANGELICUS - SUNG NY cHARLOTTE cHURCH

Imagine - John Lennon

Heroin - The Velvet Underground

Pale Blue Eyes - The Velvet Underground

Quicksand - David Bowie

Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley's version

Amazing Grace - Various great singers have covered this


I could go on but obviously it's a really subjective question so there's little point I guess.

its either

Carmina Burana or Lux aeterna

So I just listened to the vid you posted.

I really like the guitar part in the beginning, very melodic.

When the screamer vocals come in though it's like throwing crap over the mona lisa. You know there's something good underneath but you can't see through the turd.

The when the whole band comes in you might as well have dropped the mona lisa in a cess pit of filth.

But yea I really like the guitar part at the start so it's not all bad.

Ehm, you must have deceide that this is the best song ever...because..????

Man... I can't figure out any good reason, exept that this might have been the only song you ever heard before in you life...

geeez.. The turd produced by my dog is a better song.

" I hope you dance".........meant for all mankind, :)

Dont know about powerful but rather mesmerizing, the imagery and the hook will stay in your head for days..The synthesizer Sistine Chapel...

Literally.


But in all honesty.....make that change:

You must be joking.

The most powerful song is Happy Birthday.

Man in the Mirror, Michael Jackson. People should take it to heart, we'd be btter off as a people.

Wonder what the words are?

Anyway, I can relax to this. Reminds me of Tony Bennett.
