Who is your all-time favorite band ever?

You can only pick one band. No exceptions. Who would it be? And what is your favorite song by them?

I'm going to have to go with Avenged Sevenfold. I am loving their song called "Fiction".

    I have to say Cold Play, no matter what that band has amazed me.  Actually they are the only band that I have and ever willing to shell out $$$ for nosebleed seats.

    All-time favorite band ever? Oh man. Why must you torture me with such a hard question?!

    I usually say The Beatles, but today I am going with Simon & Garfunkel. One of my faves: "The Only Living Boy In New York."

    If I were in the right kind of mood, I would probably say The Eagles or Simon and Garfunkel.

    But I'm in the kind of mood that tells me to listen to the teenager I still act like, so I'm going with The Gin Blossoms.

    Wow, I like Gin Blossoms too and never realized it, lol. I googled them and recognize a bunch of songs I used to listen to a lot. I seem to do that a lot though. I have a hard time remembering names.

    I just saw Gin Blossoms in a free concert in the park a few months ago. They're from Phoenix originally!

    Dave Matthews Band is my all-time favorite (since I can only pick one... otherwise Garth Brooks would get thrown in there). Crush is my favorite song by DMB...

    The White Stripes! Actually if I could lump all Jack White's bands into one category I would.

    Favorite song: Catch Hell Blues. The guitar work is amazing.

    I'm sad I'll never see them live :(

    bawidget said The White Stripes so now I'll take Bright Eyes. One of those holdovers from high school who have luckily gotten even better since then. Saw them live earlier this month and it was amazing!

    I think I'm going to have to go with you on this one.  I don't listen to them as much anymore, but I practially listened to nothing but SOAD in high school.  My favorite song of theirs would probably be Toxicity.

    Runner up would be Slipknot or Five Finger Death Punch.  I've been listening to both of them a lot lately too.

    Gah, it's hard to pick just one. So I'll give you my top 3.

    Save Ferris
    Dance Hall Crashers
    Evanescence

    I've seen all three multiple times. I met the drummer from Dance Hall Crashers once, and he was so nice.
