Flutter by 16 Horsepower is the one that sticks in my head.

Hmm, either "Paint it Black" or "Sympathy for the Devil" by the Rolling Stones (sometimes it's one, other times it's the other)

I have so many.
But one that sticks out in my mind right now is Hatebreed's Facing What Consumes You. I'm not too much of a fan of Hatebreed too much, but this song has brought me off the tipping point of a depressive state more then once.

It depends on my mood, but most of the time recently it's been anything off this Voltaire-Fear Factory comp CD I made, with replays constantly going to Invisible Wounds and Feathery Wings.

I have hundreds, but right at this minute maybe "Kooler Than Jesus" by My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult. It'll probably change within the next 5 minutes, though

I think over all, no matter what I say, "Baby Turns Blue" by the Virgin Prunes is the greatest song ever.

I think my all time favorite is Your Best Nightmare by London After Midnight because of the awesome lyrics and because it's become synonymous to me with my friends.

But I also want to mention Mirsilo by Ataraxia, Then Kill Caesar by Current 93, The Anatomist by The Deadfly Ensemble, Open Your Eyes by The Dreamside, The Holy City of Karbala, and Arms of Cicero by Sex Gang Children.

They're many, but they're my all time favorites.

Oh dear, that's a tough question. I have come to love so many songs, many which have some kind of personal meaning to me (like, "I love this song, it's from my favourite scene in the first opera I ever participated in" and stuff like that). I cannot pick only one, I think; but there are two that I do love very much. It's the Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana (composed by Pietro Mascagni) and Can't Help Loving That Man from Jerome Kern's Show Boat. Honorary mentions would be Ziggy Stardust/ Rock'n'roll suicide (David Bowie), Comme d'Habitude, Schneekönigin/ Kleid aus Rosen (Subway to Sally), Bela Lugosi's Dead (Bauhaus) and Spellbound/ Christine (Siouxsie and the Banshees. I also hold a long- lasting fascination with the songs Knock Three Times (Black Tape for a Blue Girl) and Sing/ Coin- Operated Boy (Dresden Dolls).

Lucas' voice in that one is much better, but I fell in love with the guitar in The Anatomist; also there's a feeling to it.
In John Fall Apart John sounds like he's enjoying singing it, but in The Anatomist it's like he's singing because he has to.

I'll never have one all-time favourite song. Impossible. Flavour of the month is Temple of love (Sisters of mercy).

All time favourite melody though - Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata - I've been playing it by heart for years but feel something different in it every time.

Aaroneet "Possibly "Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode."

Oooh, I really like that song

My fav. has got to be hum... The Leaving Song by AFI possibly because I can relate to it, or maybe Spellbound by Siouxie & The Banshees.
