I havent seen a thread here on what song or recording people think is the best. Now, there hve been countless great songs out there, but i think that one of the best songs ever has to be Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.

can we quit with the "best artist" "best song" "best album" "xxx better than yyy" stuff? we all have different opinions and im sure nobody has heard every single piece of music ever composed.

If there was such a thing as the GREATEST SONG, Bohemian rhapsody would have to be in the running. Doesnt every one know that TENACIOUS D Played the Greatest song before satan? They couldn't remember what they played but they have made a tribute to the song. Titled..."Tribute"...

Click on the Tribute play button (no, you dont have to have aol).

No, it was a joke! Did you watch the video? Tenaciou D is the self proclaimed "Greatest Band On Earth". It's mixes serious rock with comedy. "The D" rules.

Hmm, Altho im more into heavier side of music bohmien "howerver u spell it" is a great song, and even some one like my can apreiciate it. :rolleyes:

altho there is no "greatest" this thread will possily cause arguements lol.

P.S. Metallica's "Master of puppets" vs Megadeth "rust in peace" for best metal albums? :D
