Very tough decision, but I'd say BiJ is the best of the bunch. I remember the 12" version and how good that was.

I totally love SLAM but I had to go with BIJ as that was the one that started it all for me and I still get goosebumps when listening to it.

My favourite is Big In Japan.
Especially the intro is beautiful / mystic.

Surprising, this will be interesting, I doubt Jet Set will get a lot of votes though, so no surprise there.

yeah, I never really liked the song to begin and the remix didn't do anything for me either!

I voted Sounds Like A Melody, it made me love the band. But the extended version isn't that good.

Call me weird, ok I am weird!! I admit it.... I have voted JetSet...

It reminds me to freedom! And that means liberty!!! [beer]

I don't know..... I think if I am in the mood then the long section of strings in the SLAM 12" just really rocks my world!!!!

Forever Young of course! The combination of the music that ebbs and flows and thoughtful words touches my soul in an introspective way that stays current after all these years. It is so forever Jung!

I have the "Jellybean Mix" of JS on CD, and I like it, so either you're not really weird or I'm up there with you. Take your pick.

When I was a kid Big in Japan was my favorite song but today I think that Forever Young is the best song ever.

This one is tough, but I say Forever Youg, since it creates biggest feelings, but others are very good too. Maybe SLAM would be next choise

Forever Young for me. I don't know how many times I've heard that song and I still can't get enough of it.

At first I wanted to vote SLAM, because it's one of the songs I've liked the most ever, but I had to be fair to FY for being the one to make me buy my first AV album. [spin]

As for BIJ, I think I've heard it too many times and I can't find it very attractive anymore.

Seems to be a closer race then I thought...interesting.

Generally I like all four songs very much...
I like more FY and SLAM in live version and Jet Set in version First Harvest....
I like BIJ in any version... almost [smile]

But if we are talking about singlе (disk) and not song only, I vote for Jet Set. I like Jellybean Mix and b-side Golden Feeling very much too

'Forever Young'

BIJ is a song a really am bored of nowadays, FY is still fresh

Mateusz

I like all of them! But,... The one specific song, which is another from others is a Jet Set, but i like it too. I prefer BIJ from another albums, for example from BIJ single and DS (where is a demo). About Sounds Like A Melody, i must to tell, there is the most clear version on FY album.

I voted sounds like a melody, i have such a soft spot for that song.

...About Sounds Like A Melody, i must to tell, there is the most clear version on FY album.

totally agree, FY SLAM is the best there is right now. I HATE the First Harvest version so bad (Though i liked it at first, because it was something new).

^ FH version wasn't that bad, I thought, but the DS4 version ROCKS!

As far as "Jet Set" goes, the FPop version took some getting used to.

russharvey

18 Sep 2008, 08:02

hehe.... still trying to get used to that coffee house jazzy version of jet set!

Foolship1077

^ It ain't easy.

Still, ANYTHING beats the Eiffel 65 "BiJ."

Two songs, which waking up in me most motions: A Victory Of Love, Forever Young
Most dynamic: Sounds Like A Melody, Fallen Angel
Most exciting: In The Mood
Most soft: Lies, Summer In Berlin
Incredible connected more voices: To Germany With Love
(Big In Japan and Jet Set are great too, but i think on anothers album, for example the demo versions or from singles)

I voted SLAM, especially extended version. I don't want it to end when I listen to it. I think it's the best AV song ever. (That goes for me of course). I think Jet Set is their second best. The first AV song I heard was BIJ. But it was Jet Set that got me hooked.

I listen to SLAM more, but the reason why i chose FY was because it had emotion. In order for a song to be the greatest ever, is to have emotion, vocals and great melodies. FY has it all.

SLAM is awesome, especially the FY version, though live SLAMS always suck like SLAM CD4, its a HORRIBLE live version it sounds like a disco reggae kinda song.
