Violently aggressive, uncompromising, hate-the-world stuff... but still with enough of a note of self awareness to acknowledge that it's comically over the top, as the video makes clear. You've gotta be able to laugh at yourself even when you feel like tearing everything apart.

Michael Jackson's Thriller, hands down. 'nough said.
Hammer, anvil, forge and fire, chase away The Hoofed Liar. Roof and doorway, block and beam, chase The Trickster from our dreams.Vigilance is our shield, that protects us from our squalid past. Knowledge is our weapon, with which we carve a path to an enlightened future.

My musical tastes are so eclectic that it's useless to seek for ONE song that could define them... but this one reflects my state of mind of today: I miss my motherland.

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
More than any other music, Soul Coughing's Ruby Vroom sums up both my musical tastes and my love of the absurd. Unfortunately Warner Music is on a jihad against everything online, so you can't really hear the music on YouTube or anyplace else, but the Amazon link I gave allows you to hear some brief samples. (I really, really hate the music labels.)
How can you not love an album when one of the songs has the chorus: "You get the ankles and I'll get the wrists—It's come down to this."
But the tip-top song from that album is "Blueeyed Devil," a beyond-funky ode to a door-to-door salesman with a heroin problem.
Seriously, if you dig on unusual music, you owe it to yourself to give Ruby Vroom a try.

This a really hard choice for me... but I guess If Only by Queens of the Stone Age.

well, I can't really place a single song that would sum my tastes (I have almost none anyways). I prefer anything depressing, as well..its depressing.

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
Anyone know of a song that combines jazz, blues, rock, metal, classical, and a little funk together?

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
Definitely. Queens of the Stone Age has the blues, rock, metal, jazz influence in some of it's songs.. but you probably wanna look at Audioslave. Audioslave definitely has the blues, rock, I guess jazz influences. Definitely have the funk as well, I'm not sure about the metal influence or classical though in Audioslave.
Try:
Audioslave:
What You Are
Like a Stone
Shadow on the Sun
Getaway Car
(Revelations)
Revelations
Queens of the Stone Age:
(Queens of the Stone Age)
Give The Mule What He Wants
(Rated R)
Auto Pilot
The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret
In the Fade
(Songs for the Deaf)
No One Knows
Gonna Leave You
(Lullabies to Paralyze)
Burn the Witch (definitely has the jazz, blues, and metal)
In My Head
Little Sister
(Era Vulgaris)
Make it wit Chu
Into the Hollow
Audioslave has the funk that Queens don't have, and Queens has the metal that Audioslave doesn't have. I think they're a very good match for what you're look for. Listen to all these songs, you're bound to like at least three of 'em.

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
Lord Winter: Interesting band. I like the music and the vocoder bits but the inclusion of death metal vocals kind of ruins it for me. I've never been fond of the style, except for Lee Dorian's funderal croak on Cathedral's first album which isn't really the same thing.
Sorblade: Thanks for the recommendations. I've heard songs from both bands already though. I mildly dislike Audioslave. Like the QotSA a good bit but none of their songs "capture" my tastes in one go. It's hard to fit Handel in with Miles Davis in with Iron Maiden in with etc.

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
One song? Impossible, as I don't actually like musical genres, just bands and songs. Besides, my two favourite bands are bands that transcended any easy categorising, namely The Clash and The Kinks.
But I guess if I have to chose two songs from each to show what I like...
(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais - The Clash
Ghetto Defendant - The Clash
Shangri-La - The Kinks
Big Sky - The Kinks
I don't really like punk as a musical genre, yet I love The Clash early work, and I love punkbands Sham 69, Cock Sparrer and two Swedish punk bands. I don't like pop or even Britpop as a genre, yet I love the masters of that genre, the Kinks.
In the end, I just like quality music.
Edit: Argh, no I can't just mention so few songs! There are so many more, so many. Jimmy Jazz, Rudie Cann't Fail, Somebody Got Murdered, Village Green, Phenomenal Cat, Prince of the Punks, Sweet Lady Geneive, Alcohol, Know Your Rights, Garageland, Stay Free, Drug-stabbing Time, Mirror of Love, London Calling, Corner Soul, Up In Heaven (Not Only Here), Starstruck, Days, Dedicated Follower of Fashion, Arthur, Art Lover, Waterloo Sunset, Strangers, Some Mother's Son, Sean Flynn, Victoria, Death is a Star, Straight to Hell, The Card Cheat, Death or Glory, All The Young Punks ahhhh I can't stop myself!!!

I don't come here a lot any more. You know why? Because you suck. That's right, I'm talking to you. Your annoying attitude, bad grammar, illogical arguments, false beliefs and pathetic attempts at humour have driven me and many other nice people from this forum. You should feel ashamed.

Anyway quite broad range of tastes here.
So hard to choose... one song... urgh... I'm torn... requires much deliberation. Much deliberation!

Anything from Morcheeba, Massive Attack, the Kinks or Creedence Clearwater Revival or some funked-out Hendrix...

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
Tough question but probably State of the Union by Rise Against (Language warning). Loud and fast hardcore punk with a highly political motive. I had the incredible experience of being in the mosh pit during the song last night at their concert. I will never forget it.

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
That does it, we must now be friends. I didn't figure anybody had heard of Morcheeba, and Massive Attack doesn't get a tenth of the respect they deserve.

Re: If there was one song that defined your musical tastes what would it be?
The only stuff I have watched was Weird Al Yankovic. I did not just listen to him. I watched and listened to his music videos on YouTube. The guy is hilarious. I consider his songs as jokes, and his music defines my tastes. I do not like music that is made for listening and appreciating its musical qualities. So, here is my favourite and defining musical piece: White & Nerdy.
