First off, choosing one song is pretty much an impossible task for me. My tastes in music vary by the month, although I do have some consistincy when it comes to a couple of bands/artists. Moreover though, I'm more of an 'album' type person than a 'song' type person. 99% of the time, I'll put an album rather than just listening to a song, or a string of random songs. Ask me for a list of my favorite albums, easy - a list of my favorite songs, that's hard. Not in the last place because a lot of the music I listen to forms more of a coherent piece per album rather than a collection of songs.
Nevertheless though, there's this one song that is incredibly special to me. First off, it's just incredible music-wise. Perfectly balanced, more than astonishing vocals, an INCREDIBLE band, excellent tempo. Seriously, the instrumentation is astonishing - controlled yet incredibly powerful and exactly like it should be. The drum track is amazing. And then there's the fact that it reminds me of happy times. Whenever I was driving to the beach last summer, it was the first song on the CD to start playing. A summer breeze, the perfect mood, the perfect tempo, it was just so right. Whenever I hear the song it reminds of those perfect moments again, beautiful, unique - it's hard for anything to top that (Lost In Translation not take into account). So what's the song?
