I'm surprised more people haven't answered this thread

i would answer if i could cut the list of top favourites down. one minute "drowning man" will be my favourite, the next it'll be "mofo" or THTBA...

my brains will explode and i won't be able to finish my calculus homework

Oh I know, this was hard to do but I love reading what songs other fans like. If I did my list today, it would probably be different. Rereading my list I can see that I left of some that I should have put on. oh well....
