Had to be "Somebody to Love" on Queen's "Day at the Races" album in 1976.. I was 8 at the time and became a Queen fan

This is a good question . I love Johnny Cash singing Ring of Fire & any of his songs are perfect for me.

For me it was the heady days of 1979 when a skinny 13yr old found SKA & The Prince by Madness.
SKA is still a part of my life & I listen to it most days.

My most recent 'hero', Mark Lanegan and his cover of The Gun Club's Carry Home

Saw Mark live at the Leeds Met just a few weeks ago. Cracking gig, attended mostly by scruffy looking males in their 30s and 40s :D

Here's the original version by the Gun Club. Jeffrey's voice still sends shivers down my spine. RIP Jeffrey :(

Faith No More - Epic
changed my music taste a lot. I used to be in Bon Jovi, GNR etc, heard Epic, and got into more alternative, heavier stuff, John Zorn etc. I'm still a big FNM fan and follow all of Mike Patton's other projects, but The Real Thing is probably the FNM album I'm least likely to listen to these days.
