I think that my fave (non-AV) song is TRUE FAITH by NEW ORDER.
@ville - forever and ever.
I think it´s very difficult to name just 1 song that´s the best. It depends on the mood I´m in and how long time it has been since I last heard the song. But these are among my favourites:
Hooters: Private Emotion, Satellite, Karla with a K, Where do the children go?
OMD: Tesla girls, Enola gay, Pandora´s box
DeFilm: Whale song
A-ha: Take on me, Hunting high and low
Gazebo: I like Chopin
Oakey & Moroder: Together in electric dreams
Belinda Carlisle: Heaven is a place on earth, Summer rain, I get weak
Queen: Love of my life, Who wants to live forever, Days of our lives
New Order: Blue Monday
and the list goes on . . . .

This is very hard, because I listen to many different genres of music.
One of my favorite 80s songs is Al Corley - Square Rooms - specially the 12" version. Luckily the DJ in Waren before the AV show played this at the venue - wow, that was fantastic !!!

Can´t choose only one song so I say:
The crying game (Boy George)
Together in electric dreams (Georgio Moroder & Phil Oakey)
Santa Monica (Savage Garden)
The sun always shines on tv (A-ha)
Sign your name (Terence Trent D´Arby)
Moonlight Shadow * (Mike Oldfield & Maggie Reilly)
Could I have this kiss forever (Whitney Houston & Enrique Iglesias)
When you get caught between the moon and New York City (Christopher Cross)
Nothing´s gonna change my love (Glenn Medeiros)
Hear me calling (De/Vision)
My god, there are sooo many more...
*I´m your best friend-the dream*

Because its BRITNEY SPEARS !!!!!
She is just a little blonde girl...
not a true artist like AV, DM, DD ....
@ville - forever and ever.
I don´t mind people who likes Britney.
She maybe doesn´t write her song on her own, but she sings and perfoms just as good like anybody else. Don´t like people complaining at Britney-artists...
*I´m your best friend-the dream*
She´s kinda cute though <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

hahaha great picture Willy. She is pretty to look at, for a while anyway. Her appearance, like her music, is shiny and happy, but beyond that there's not much interesting. For a really cool looking woman Siouxie Sioux is awesome. I'd insert a picture, but I'm not sure how to do that yet.<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>
The future exists, first in Imagination, then in Will, then in Reality.
lol <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Willy, do you also collect Britney's pictures ? Wanna trade ???

Of course Bernie Baby is cute !!!!!!!
But Krapplund doesnt like it when i talk about him... <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Bernhard doesnt have just a nice face (and ass...) - he is wonderful, smart, sympathic and talented person and i adore him for that.
Same goes for Mr. Gold :)
@ville - forever and ever.
Then I go and look at the pic I took in HH...on someones ass...*hehehehe*
Really nice...Remember Adi??<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

My all-time favorite song, non-AV, would be "Dreams," by Van Halen.
Yes, it's one of Hagar's, but I think as a whole album, 5150 outdoes all others of theirs.
I've collected a good deal of VH and AV, as well as the following, with favorite song alongside them:
Gin Blossoms, "Until I Fall Away"
Judas Priest, "Living After Midnight"
Presidents of the United States of America, "Lump"
Ultravox (Midge Ure era), "Lament"
W.A.S.P., "Mean Man"
As you can see, my tastes REEEEALLY range.
Robin Gibb - Like A Fool
Sandra - Maria Magdalena
Modern Talking - You Can Win If You Want

OMD - Joan of Arc (Maid of Orleans)
BEST SONG EVER!!

Can I choose 3 songs?....
Well, these are very different, but I think these are prob my favourite non Alphaville songs -
Never Let Me Down Again - Depeche Mode (they are still FANTASTIC and amazing live!!!!)
Boys of Summer - Don Henley (brings back great summer memories from the 80's)
Visions In Blue - Ultravox (still gives me tingles down the spine in the instrumental bit where the piano comes in at the end) [spin]
