Your Most Played Song?

[ACID_FOX]

Saw this in the "Overplayed Songs" topic and thought it deserved it's own thread.

Bloodmeat - Protest The Hero (78) (I listen to most of my music through my ipod as appose to itunes, hence the realtivley low number)

So, yours?

Porcupine Tree - "Trains"    71 plays

That's just on last.fm

[PlaysLikeMyung]

Smoke & Mirrors by Symphony X

Zune isn't telling me how many plays though

Smoke & Mirrors by Symphony X

Zune isn't telling me how many plays though

did you go in the software to music > songs > right click and add "play count"?


looking up mine now.



Edit:

Whelp. I wish I had made a new account after I first discovered Sonata Arctica, because every last one of their songs is played over 200 times 
And to think I only listen to them maybe once every 8 months or so now.

Looking in my zune software, the highest listened to song in the past year or so is

Chroma Key - Lunar

[DarkEternalNight]

On my desktop: Waidmanns Heil - Rammstein 135 plays

On my laptop: Caravan - Rush 40 plays or so.

[Sigz]

Looking in my zune software, the highest listened to song in the past year or so is

I love you so, so much.

Thanks Sonata

It's 74 plays, apparently

That can't possibly be right...

"Limelight"-Rush with 79 plays

[Arcaeus]

Last.fm: Jeff Buckley - Last Goodbye

iTunes: 65daysofstatic - Install A Beak In The Heart That Clucks Time In Arabic

[Seventh Son]

Probably one of those....

Megadeth - Holy Wars... The Punishment Due (That opening riff is one of the best things ever)
Cormorant - Uneasy Lies the Head (Unknown band, but this song and the album fucking rock)
Thin Lizzy - Emerald (Thin Lizzy just does not get enough love, period. Plus those guitar solo's are just..... special.)
Judas Priest - Dreamer Deceiver (Fuck Painkiller, this is JP's best song.)
Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name (Do I really need to say anything about this song?)

Since Cormorant is an unknown band, I'll just leave this link of that song in case anyone is interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Obik_DA9Edc

[KevShmev]

On my iTunes, which I have been using regularly for a little over three years, it is currently "How to Disappear Completely" by Radiohead, but Devin Townsend's "Bend It Like Bender" (which I listen to at the gym almost every day, and those listens register every time I plug my iPod back in to recharge it) is about to overtake it.

[Birch Boy]

Iron Maiden - "Running Free" with over 170 plays

[Quadrochosis]

Porcupine Tree - "Trains"

[Fluffy Lothario]

On my iTunes before my computer crashed, it was a furious race between

Dave Matthews Band - Drive In Drive Out
Santana w/ Cee-Lo and Lauryn Hill - Do You Like the Way
Sigur Ros - Milano
Bob Dylan - Visions of Johanna

or something like that.

If I was to hazard a guess at my most played song ever, it'd be either something off of SFAM, AJFA, or the Koeln Concert.

[Sigz]

My most-listened is 'Throwing a Donner Party at Sea' by Giant Squid with only 36 plays  

Of course, I've only had a last.fm for 6 months.

[MetalManiac666]

I do believe it's "Siberian Katru" by Yes.

[Seventh Son]

I do believe it's "Siberian Katru" by Yes.

I love you.

Pendulum - The Fountain just overtook it with 37 plays.

[sneakyblueberry]

Hide and Seek - Imogen Heap

followed by:

Topaz - B-52's

followed by:

Bloodmeat - Protest the Herp Derp

[In The Wake Of Poseidon]

Cold Cash and Colder Hearts by Thrice

[The Letter M]

Just from memory (and without syncing my iPod to look at it on iTunes), I think I've played both Transatlantic's The Whirlwind and Spock's Beard's Snow over 200 times each, and I'm fairly certain Marillion's Marbles and The Flower Kings' Paradox Hotel are up there (at least 150-175 each).

Generally I like to listen to whole albums to having a "most played song" is unlikely, unless of course, you count "The Whirlwind" as a song as well as being the whole album... then yes, my most played song is "The Whirlwind" 

-Marc.

[tri.ad]

The top 3:

Rush - Kid Gloves (32 plays)
Marillion - The King Of Sunset Town (31 plays)
Rush - Lock And Key (30 plays)

[shadowfex]

Pain of salvation - Sisters (54 plays)

[Sintheros]

Porcupine Tree - "Trains"

This, with 87 plays, plus another 19 of the Ilosaarirock version.

dredg - Sang Real at 1106, over the past five years, obviously on the PC alone, ignoring ipod/car/CD player plays.

Doesn't surprise me at all, I absolutely LOVE this song, it hit me when I first heard it like no song ever did before. I met a guy in a bar with the cover of CWA tattooed on his leg, we went on a date and he explained where it was from... I had never heard of dredg, I figured they must be pretty good for him to have that specific album tattooed on him. I went away, ordered it, listened to it, enjoyed it, and then Sang Real came on, and it was like nothing I've ever felt before that quickly.

I spent three days solid listening to NOTHING but this song, at home, at college at the back of the class, etc. I even got up early 2 hours before I had to be at college to listen to it multiple times in quiet before having to leave the house, and I still listen to it every week and usually most days. All my close friends/family who know about my funeral plans know it's the one song I would like played if I die anytime soon. It feels like more than a song to me, it feels like a best friend that has been there for me for a few years now. Godamnit I love Sang Real

[AwakeFromOctavarium]

Judging from Last.fm alone, my most played song is Serenity Painted Death with 33 plays. But if I include all the songs I've heard since two years ago, it'd be totally different. Probably something from DT.

[Zantera]

Dredg - Sang Real (159 plays @ lastfm)

Honorable mentions:

Agalloch - Falling Snow (138 plays @ lastfm)
Porcupine Tree - Trains (122 plays @ lastfm)

[wolfking]

There's no way to tell this on Windows Media is there?

HELL YEAH!

[cthrubuoy]

Am I going to be the first with a DT song? It's Overture 1928 with 98 plays if I remember rightly, second is The Baying of the Hounds and third is Ghost of Perdition. With like 96/95 or something.
None of these are accurate since I wiped my PC so the iTunes plays went, and I was listening to CDs in my car for nearly 3 years so they dont count either. Damn you technology!

[Darkes7]

According to last.fm, Riverside - Ultimate Trip with 35 listens.

In reality probably Dream Theater - Home, I don't know how many times I've listened to it (both during the full album listen and separately), but 100 is a rough estimation.

[ZKX-2099]

The Glass Prison (92)
Swim To The Moon (83)
Burn It Down (78)
Fossil Genera - A Feed From Cloud Mountain (76)
This Dying Soul (76)

It would look much different if I didn't get a new computer recently.
