What is the one song that you think is the greatest song of all time?

Frank sinatra's I did it " MY WAY " since the song became a world wide hit , people has been more independent, the song apply to what most people are doing these days.

Wow, there are so many. Just to kick off this discussion, I'll throw Bruce Springsteen's "Jungleland" into the ring. It has the epic feel, some great music, interesting lyrics, well put-together and great live.

Question for you, rekagreka: why in "coupons deals"?

Let it Be" by the Beatles. It manages to be both comforting and honest. That's hard to do.

I'm not really sure, but I'm sure it is by The Beatles. Right now my favorite song by them is Yesterday, but it changes frequently.

At first I thought of the Hallelujah Chorus or maybe Amazing Grace, but I am very happy with my selection of "AND CAN IT BE" The words were written by Charles Wesley in 1739 and the music added in 1835 by Thomas Campbell. Charles Wesley and his brother John are credited with the founding of the Methodist Church. For nearly two hundred years, the combination of the majestic music that fits the words of Amazement so well have thrilled the heart and soul of millions of congregational singers.

When the Levee Breaks - Led Zepplin (Angel From Montgomery - John Prine (but sang by Bonnie Raitt) is a very close second).

Again, to be the best of all time (like the singers) I think it needs to be a song that is timeless and spans cultures, languages, people, even instruments. And I think "Amazing Grace" does that. Here is Victor Wooten playing it on the bass: youtube.com/watch?v=mx2vuK5pGTg And here it is in Cherokee: youtube.com/watch?v=UvYIjFtPQEk And of course, the lyrics are simply beautiful: youtube.com/watch?v=lhc7MEYY-Ho&feature=fvw.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
