    It's fast, it's thrashy, its complex without being inaccessible and it has this sort of swagger that is totally awesome.

    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.

    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.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    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.

    Anyone know of a song that combines jazz, blues, rock, metal, classical, and a little funk together?

    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.

    Anyway quite broad range of tastes here.

    So hard to choose... one song... urgh... I'm torn... requires much deliberation. Much deliberation!
