hiya what is everyone's fave song/album? :o)

[Saveman]

Any song called "One" seems to be brilliant.

Best Album? Hmm difficult one... "OK Computer" is up there.....""X&Y" is outstanding...."Nevermind" is groundbreaking....."..and Justice for all" is inspirational....."Dark Side of the Moon" I've never heard, but it's suppose to be brilliant ;)
Depends what mood I'm in..... :)
