Author Topic: Greatest song ever (Read 15919 times)

This truly has to be the greatest song ever written.

Firstly, the performance is top-notch; listening to her voice, you can hear the result of both prodigious natural talent and years of training. Like a siren, her range and melody transfixes the listener and draws him in to a world of pure aural pleasure.

Secondly, and even more importantly, the lyrics are perhaps the greatest delineation of life and love that have ever been given in the English language. Each line is profound and insightful and displays a mastery of the English language not seen since Shakespeare. It is a pleasure to hear her in full control of the language, shaping it and playing with it to create a work of true literary genius.

But listen to me no longer! Please, listen to the song and you will see why it is taking the world by storm!

Oh Dear. This is what everyone was on about today then D:

...and there I was turning off oasis expecting to hear the next greatest song in the history of time. It was almost impossible to detect any sarcasm in that post at all

I'm amazed at how true this song rings. IT REALLY IS FRIDAY TODAY! How did she know I would listen to this TODAY of all days???

Don't want to be an @$$, but... this song is worse than any other songs I have even listen. This is a personnal opinion of course, but, to me, I think the better song ever is REDEMPTION by Gackt... I can listen to it more than seventy times a day without getting tired of it. LONGING just after, and A One-Winged Angel (Orchestral version) following. Maybe we should make a thread of it.

1) Kudi's post was sarcasm, you should really learn that Kudi believes the exact opposite of most everything he says.

2) One Winged Angel, not A One Winged Angel

U_U Yeah lol, I always take the sentences "as-is" and so don't really understand sarcasm. A One-Winged Angel, this is the name of the original, and since I was talking about the one from the Reunion Tracks... oh well.

That was a valuable insight from a valuable person.

Turning Oasis off isn't the best thing to do if you want to hear the greatest song ever.

No it's not. No official English-language media has EVER used this name, it has always been "One-Winged Angel". And since Japanese doesn't have articles, even a literal translation wouldn't have "A" at the beginning.

I saw the thread title and immediately knew what this was going to be about…

I'm just going to leave this here, if no one minds

Its obvious that Kudi was never interested in the song at all. We all know you just wanted to get a good look at the reject at :38

This song makes me feel physically sick. I automatically hate her as much as I hate Justin Bieber.

Oh god, I expected this, I just saw it yesterday.

Interesting thing about this video is that, If it's a joke video and they meant it to be funny it fails because It's not very funny for a joke song.

- but if it's a real song that's serious, it's funny as hell because of how bad the lyrics are. It's kind of one of those Damned if you do/don't situations

because they no longer have their own taste and follow whatever the media toss at them ? if so, that serves them right.

If she's 13, then why are her friends that look the same age driving to School?

Just imagine if she got the bus, she'd explode trying to decide where to sit.

^ That doesn't surprise me, after looking at the itunes top 100, I have lost faith in the musical tastes of people, I'm not usually one to hate on mainstream music, but it seems as though all people need is a techno pop beat and an autotuned chorus to be satisfied these days.
