. But you also (if not to say "mostly") live with hundreds of things surrounding you, your relations with people, deeds and everyday problems, and exactly all this plays the decisive role in your feeling of the world. That's why in the most cases your mood influences the choice of the song...
Besides, you change with years, and if some time ago you could dislike, f.e., "Soul Messiah", now you understand it and it is "close" to you and echoes some shadows of your mood becoming one of the favs.

"Unplugged" is the other word for acoustic versions of songs, like MTV Unplugged, where all the bands and artists performed as such.

'I Die For You Today' I really like, but one of my all time fave songs by AV must be 'Summer In Berlin'....awesome song....and there are 26 years between those two songs...that's really something!!!

20 years. IDFYT was premiered at the 20th anniversary in Berlin in 2004.

....sure, but I were thinking of the year of the official release of both songs (26 years between)....'I Die For You Today' were played for the first time in Berlin 2004, thats right

.....and the name of the song were at that time not 'I Die For You Today' , but 'The Outsider'

Wrong. It's always been IDFYT. When Marian introduced it in Berlin, he shouted out "The Outsider" as that was the name of the writer of the lyric. Marian said, to translate roughly, that the lyric was composed by one of your own guys (i.e. one of the fans) The Outsider:

I've been trying to make a playlist of favorite AV songs...Still can't decide. The Jet Set always comes to mind first, followed by...Golden Feeling. No, Forever Young unplugged. No, All In the Golden Afternoon, No, ...Wait, where was I?

MG songs are easier, One Step Behind You has been a favorite for a long time (Marian can chase me anytime[smile2])
