I’ll start off, my favorite song is all along the watch tower by Jimi Hendrix. That guitar at the start just sounds so beautiful.
I am a very mood based listener so I rotate things a lot and enjoy a wide diversity of music… but I honestly think there have been few songs to approach the level of Around The World/Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
Good choice

Ghost Love Score by Nightwish
Place in Line, Chris Smither
Loosen your shoes
Don’t listen to news
That keeps you up at nightDon’t try to explain
Try not to complain
No one really caresAnd don’t try to find
Your place in line
'Cause it’s everywhereYou don’t need to find your place in line

I’m almost hesitant to say as it feels pretentious, but Debussy’s Clair de lune from the Suite bergamasque. I listen to most genres in some capacity. I could probably narrow down to a top five or ten, including Clair de lune, but the other tracks I would struggle to place relative to each other. Cdl is the only one that stands above the others, which I can listen to literally at any time. Lang Lang did a performance in 2022 which is the closest I’ve found to a perfect recording of the piece.
There are days where I might go for a walk, stop by the river close to my house, sit on a bench on the bank, pop this on my phone and just look out on the water. I’ll watch the birds swooping around, and butterflies on the flowers nearby, the wind blowing the water’s surface, and the clouds over the trees, and just listen. It makes me think of the beauty and impermanence of life and living. Of the complexity and insignificance of our being. Of the individual and the mass. Of my own place in the world, and in spite of my resolutely nihilistic worldview, my own life’s value. Of death and its inevitability, but also its necessity.
It’s one of very few things which can inspire in me that child-like wonder we were all once so acquainted with. I once listened to it sitting alone on an outcropping overlooking Lake Tahoe. My friends were alarmed when I returned to the group wiping my eyes and waxing poetic about the concept of beauty.
I will also say the Rammstein’s Du Hast is a fucking banger.
Excellent choice, I was gonna recommend And Then There Was Silence, but most people probably don’t have 14 minutes to spare for a metal interpretation of The Iliad.

I don’t know if it’s a favorite exactly, but I pretty much always like hearing Rock and Roll by Led Zeppelin.

Currently it’s definitely a tie between Bound For The Floor by Local H and My Own Worst Enemy from Lit because I’m hear for a good time in life.
Gotta be pink Floyd wish you were here…
But there are so many good ones.
Not my only favorite, but Since I’ve Been Loving You by Led Zeppelin is worth a listen
This song didn’t click with me until I caught it on the radio driving late at night. I dunno what it is, but for some reason those slow bluesy led Zeppelin songs just hit different when night driving.
I like Mudman from Pink Floyd, tasty jam
