Mambo No. 5 was by someone else.

Actually, Perez Prado did BOTH "Mambo #5" and "Mambo #8" (I wasn't sure about #8 until I looked it up) in the late 50's. Of course someone else may have done the version you heard.
Lou Bega did a cover of #5 a few years ago.

Kubedawg, that's a favorite song of yours? God damn that was annoying. How can you even stand to listen to it?

kubedawg · Jan 19, 2007, 05:28 am

Because it sounds incredibly awesome to my ears. Eargasm. Srysly.

**Chris** · Jan 21, 2007, 12:02 pm

what kind of poll is this? Of course we listen to songs.

And this one I came across was funny as hell - its got a slight adult theme but its a political song and I think most people on here would enjoy it.

I just joined this cool site that shows the world what tracks I have listened to.

Apotheosis · Feb 3, 2007, 05:58 pm

Hatesong, by Porcupine Tree.
Deliverance, by Opeth.
The Grudge, by Tool.
These are probably the same 3 songs I have been playing over and over again on guitar, simply because the time signatures are so complex to follow.

Acoustic/Indie-Jazz?/Americana?

In Flames - The Quiet Place (something from the last album)
Otep - Ghostflowers

Rock
Stone Sour - Through Glass
Nonpoint - In The Air Tonight (Cover of Phil Collins)
Incubus - Anna Molly

Comedy

Brian Posehn - Metal By Numbers

...hrm. That's what this week has been pulling out for me.

Technosoul · Feb 20, 2007, 02:29 am

It is no doubt pointless to list the song I like the best because most of you are interested in the 1980s or later stuff.

But what the heck, I got time on my hands,

I will start off with the most recent song I like.

Rocky - You Don't Love Me Yet.
Sex Pistals - I did it my way.
Mamas & Papas - Safe In My Garden,
? - Who let the dogs out,
Greatful Dead - Box of Rain.
Black Sabbeth - Chldren of the grave.
Bob Seeger - Old time rock and roll.
America - Sandman & Horse with no name.
Donovan - Catch The Wind.
Dead Kenndys - My Bio-beach.
Patti Smith - Horses.
Talking Heads - (three of their songs)
Crows - Mambo Rock.
David Peel - We're from the Eastside.
Charles Manson - Garbage Pickers of America
Buffilo Springfield - What's that sound.
Velvet Undergound - Waiting for the man.

Now for the good stuff - those oldies but goodie.

The Five Keys - My Saddest Hour.
Bill Haley - Rock around the clock
Big Mama Thronton - Ball and Chain.
Elmore James - Dust My Broom.
Little Richard - The girl can't help it.
Little Willie John - Fever.
Johnny Guitar Watson - Gangster of love.
Five Satins - In the still of the night,
And all of the thousands of other 1950s oldies but goodies,.

Artists and groups that have a bunch of good songs.

CCR.
Cream.
Paul Simon.
Beatles and Stones.
Carl Perkins
Robins or Coasters
Clyde Mcphatter and the Drifters.
Joe Turner.
Ray Charles.
BB King.
Bob Dylan.
Big Sandy.
Grandpa Jones.
Fats Domino.
Professor Longhair.
Jerry Lee Lewis.
Temptations. to name a few.

One record that has been selling for years and years and remains one of the largest selling songs is White Christmas by Bing Crosby ( but it is not one of my favorits) -
