Cliche Question: What's Your Favorite STP Song?
« on: May 28, 2010, 10:04:14 PM »
I know, I know. It's a cliche question and we've probably all discussed it before (though it was probably a long time ago), but now we have new members and a new album so I thought I'd bring it up. I'm curious to see which songs people consider their all-time favorites.

I'll start; mine's "Plush".

Yes, again cliche, but memories of when I first heard the song really keep me into it. To me, that song is timeless and I can listen to it over and over.

It is really hard to pin down a fav, but I would have to say either Crackerman or ISL

Down. The first time I heard of STP was the commercial promo for No 4, I was 11 at the time. I remember being scared and excited by Scott's moans at the beginning, and I still think its the most badass song I've ever heard.
email me if downloads ever stop working

Cool perspective, for those of us that were older at the time or already knew of STP. I remember being a 13 year old church boy when I first heard Sex Type Thing. I was captivated, and digging it...but then was like "Oh, man. I'm not supposed to be liking this stuff!" LOL.  ::)

As far as my absolute favorite...boy, that's a tough one. Plush is easily the song of my youth.

I have said on occasion that Seven Caged Tigers is my favorite, though. The outro is euphoric... Always reminded me of the outro to Led Zep's Over the Hills and Far Away. Or vice versa, I should say, since it was STP that put me on to Led Zeppelin.  ;)
But she'll never really be alone...as long as I'm beside her...

I think that sometimes there's a definite memory factor that makes a song timeless to you. I'll never forget the first time I heard "Plush". I'd already heard "Big Empty" and loved it, but "Plush" really made me a fan of this band.

Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart, 14 years later and I still get chills listening to Dean's epic guitar solo. I've gone hoarse at times trying to mimic Scott's voice during the chorus. STP really captured a great sound with Trippin', easily the best of the stuff they experimented with on Tiny Music.

Of all, I would have to say "Vasoline."
