Collection of a few songs that had an immediate impact on me for whatever unique reason. Many of them were the beginning of a love affair with that particular band or singer. Songs I'll always come back to. Songs I need.

| 1 | The Decemberists : The Mariner's Revenge Song |
|
The greatest revenge song of all time. It doesn't really flow well with the others being a sea shanty an' all but it's just too incredible to leave out.

My happy song. This song can always bring me out of a foul mood and is especially useful when pumping yourself up for a big night out on the town. The brass makes me wanna dance til the cows come home

So french it can transport you to the streets of Paris when your swatting mosquitoes and throwing snags on the barbie. What a voice, and a great beat.

| 4 | Janis Joplin : Move Over |

This song is fierce. The strength in her voice is both empowering and intimidating. Good one to listen to when a boy has been 'toying with your affections'

I love how this song slowly builds to finally culminate in a painful, harrowing Robert Plant style scream. One of my Led Zeppelin favourites.

I first heard this song on that piece of crap movie Garden State, and even then it stuck in my mind when I hadn't even heard the whole song and I didn't know what it was about. Really beautiful song. Great lyrics.

I have great memories associated with this song, as it was a favourite of mine as a child. I can remember listening to it with my dad on the old record player. It's a classic and a piece of history.

This is very nice, I'm with you a hundred percent! You got The Shins, Radiohead, Bowie and Led Zeppelin covered - and the first two are my absolute fav tracks with the bands concerned. Now all I need to do is listen to some Marcy Playground, essentially the track you list with them/him/her. :)
