Did I say I wanted USA songs. Im pretty sure i said i wanted Afgan songs..... jk nice

Oh, then just replace song number 12 with the Taliban Song (Toby Keith).

a few:
The Who - Teenage Wasteland
Jack Johnson - Bubble Toes
James Taylor - Fire and Rain
Dispatch - The General
Whoever the Hell Sings It - Bad to the Bone
Chuck Berry - Johnny Be Good
Johnny Cash - Hurt (or really any Johnny Cash song, cause he's sweet)
Anything by the Postal Service(the band, not the government corp.)
Led Zeppelin - Fool in the Rain/Over the Hills and Far Far Away

Tool - Eulogy, 46 And 2, The Grudge, Schism, Stinkfist, Sober.
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb, Brain Damage, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Hey You, Wish You Were Here.
Right Said Fred - I'm Too Sexy

I wouldn't say these are the best songs ever... but they are some of my favorites.

My list in no particular order-

1. Tool- Sober
2. Deftones- Bored
3. Led Zeppelin- Stairway to Heaven
4. Soundgarden- 4th of July
5. Deftones- RX queen
6. Filter- Hey man nice shot
7. Deftones- fireal
8. Soundgarden- Fell on black days
9. System of a Down- I-E-A-I-A-I-O
10. Nirvana- lithium
11. Staind- Outside
12. Pearl Jam- black

I changed this list like a hundred times before I posted it =x

To Spike: Hurt is a Nine Inch Nails song and in my opinion better when they sing it.

in any order...
1. down in a hole - alice in chains
2. prison sex -  tool
3. mahogany - eric b. & rakim
4. three days - janes addiction
5. hey joe - jimi hendrix
6. so what - ministry
7. 4th of july - soundgarden
8. orion - metallica
9. let's stay together - al green
10. kill you - korn
11. nutshell - alice in chains
12. many men - 50 cent

If i think 12 best songs ever for a road trip, i think classic rock. I guess these would be somewhere near the top.
Sweet Emotion - Aerosmith
Freebird - Lynard Skynard
I can see for miles - the who
Boston - more than a feeling
Then have your pick amongst AC/DC, Zepplin, Santana, Jonny Cash (one without his wife singing).

btw, Tool SUCKS! if i wanted to listen to songs about fisting men i'd listen to duran duran or loverboy

Anything Avril Lavigne  ;)

i realize its a NIN song, but i think cash sings it better. it seems like the whole song is about drugs(cash was a herion addict.....i think) death/sadness(cash covered this right before he died, and right after he died, i think he knows about loss) i just think the song applied more to cash than to resnor(sp?)

Yo haz i think I'll start to like you ;-)

check out these songs:

Outkast   Hey ya!

Coldplay  Clocks

These are not really my style but they are quite fun!

peace

try listening to more then one of their songs. i think you'd like sober, you could probably relate. slob  :).


btw;

deftones - when girls telephone boys
in flames - cloud connected, pinball map, square nothing
pinball map is the absolute sickest metal song ever.

You guys need some real music in your lives, ever heard of Jazz?

You mean like norah jones? ;) ;D

lol  It's hopeless, I'll be moving on.

Sadly bronto, i don't reject society or am angry at life. Therefore i don't like to listen to songs dark songs with moaning that revolve around depression. I've listened to quite a few tool songs, and nothing sounded worth listening to more than once.

neither do i, but i still like their music. i like the way you just assumed im some sort of depressed goth type character though.

viper, yes ive heard of jazz. its especially nice to listen to when you eat mushrooms.

I love how no one can use quotes anymore.... Just because the music is inspired by depression or with a vibe of it doesn't mean you have to be depressed to like it. You could just be like "wow that is a really good/fucked up song about some guy being depressed." Jazz? What's that? Sounds like a candy to me. ???

How about in no particular order:

Captain Jack by Billy Joel
Karn Evil 9 by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Like a Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan
Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen
The Devil Went Down to Georgia by The Charlie Daniels Band
Fortunate Son by CCR
Space Oddity by David Bowie
Hotel California by The Eagles
The Pretender by Jackson Browne
Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix
Crazy Game of Poker by OAR

There's a bunch more, but thats a good selection (at least for me) :-D.

Supertramp, Rush, and Van Halen also have some really good stuff. I'm a classic rock fan, if you couldn't tell already.
