Favorite song? Ye gods, I don’t think I can limit myself to one favorite song per genre, let alone just one song for the entire world of music.
However, my iPod tells me that my top song is “Laid,” by James, narrowly edging out “Last Stop: This Town” by the Eels and “Neighborhood #3: Power Out” by the Arcade Fire. “Comfort Eagle” by Cake, “Bells Are Ringing” by They Might Be Giants, “Presto” by Rush, “The Drinking Song” by Moxy Fruvous, “Son Of Sam” by Elliott Smith, “Hercules” by Midnight Oil and “Nemesis” by Shriekback round out the top 10.
