Greatest Song of all time.

I'd go with a few classics:

Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven

Queen - Bohemian Rapsody

Beatles - Let It Be

John Lennon - Imagine

Johnny Cash - Hurt (I know it's a cover, but he sure did nail it better than Reznor did)

The greatest song of the millenium is:

Outkast-Hey Ya!

Yay! That's got to be one of the happiest songs I've heard. It gets a bit boring towards the end, but the first verse really hits me. Great, great song!

Outkast have got some real good songs, the last album wasn't very good IMO but some awesome material. I like The Way You Move a lot.

It's one of my favorite albums, seriously.

I listened to it a long time ago, when my ears couldn't really appreciate music very well. I should check it again though.

I remember liking the chorus in Last Call, man I'd never heard so many swear words together up to then :laugh:

How can you possibly pick a single greatest song to rule over the rest? You'd have to divide it into genre's atleast, and decades probably too like above. Even then you'd need to do like a top 3 :).

So with that said, I'll go with Paradise City.

:P
