What is your perfect song?

#

Started by not that kind of guy (Richard)

By that I mean that everything about it is completely right. The music, the lyrics, the image, whatever is going on with you at the time. When it all syncs up perfectly and for the duration of that song it feels like magic. Does that make any sense? Feel free to explain why aswell if you choose.

Pulp - Common People
The B-52’s - Love Shack
Metallica - One
The Cure - A Short Term Effect
Radiohead - Exit Music
MSP - Hibernation

Oddly I can’t pick something involving Morrissey or the Floyd. As much as I love them. Your turn.

Radiohead - Exit Music

That would be on my list, too.
Misery Loves Co. Sonic Attack
Beck - Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime
The Nefilim - Melt
T? - Trigger Inside, and now Exiles
Tom Waits - Tango Till They’re Sore

I think there’s a few others. It’s an interesting question, because this list isn’t quite the same as what I’d come up with for ‘favourite songs’

No. I wish I did - it’s driving me NUTS!!!!!! Steve Martin in a white shirt and gold braces (and a gold hat, I think) singing Build Me Up Buttercup and there were either horses or cows nearby and it was sandy.

I’m starting to think I dreamt it, but I didn’t :(
