Even though I do love my 80's movies, I would have to say that the music is really what makes me happy, because listening to it in the car always brings you back to another place.
With that, I have brought up many topics on music in the past so I give you this one, which can include all decades...
What are some of the best first songs on any CD that you own? Some songs are so good that you listen to the rest of the album and the rest of the album rocks just as hard, like Debaser from the Pixies on Doolittle, and Smells like Teen Spirit from Nirvana on Nevermind.
Some are awesome and the rest of the album just never gets it. It bombs. One band did this in their first two albums.
Boston
The first album... More than a Feeling is the song that drives the rest of an amazing album
The second album... Don't Look Back is great and the rest of the album is misery.
So anyone out there, I'd love to know some of your great first songs...
WE are DEVO
