Some of my favorite songs are the only songs I really like from the band who did them:

-Dir En Grey - "Obscure." (Ironic that this would wind up being one of the top 5 favorite songs ever, because the first time I heard it, I watched the first 30 seconds of the uncencored video, got totally freaked out, couldn't sleep--and then realized that I wanted to hear the rest of that song! Too bad the rest of their stuff doesn't sound much like that song.)
-Silverstein - "Discovering the Waterfront."
-Oingo Boingo - "Insanity."
-Straylight Run - "Hands in the Sky (Big Shot)"
-Blonde Redhead - "23." (I should look up the rest of their stuff.)
-Vast - "Flames"

Songs that I wouldn't call favorites, but I still like them despite disliking every other song from the band I've heard:
-Aiden - "The Last Sunrise (Dusk Mix)"
-Chiasm - "Isolated"
-Combichrist - "Get Your Body Beat"
-The Cure - "Lost"
-David Bowie - "Heart's Filthy Lesson"
-The Dresden Dolls - "The Perfect Fit"
-Enigma - "Gravity of Love"
-Enya - "May It Be"
-Flyleaf - "I'm So Sick"
-Foo Fighters - "All My Life"
-From First to Last - "World War Me"
-Gackt - "Redemption"
-Goo Goo Dolls - "Iris"
-Kandles at Nine - "I Wanna Be Your Slave"
-Lisa Germano - "From A Shell"
-London After Midnight - "The Bondage Song"
-Lore - "Haunted"
-Noir Desir - "Le Vent Nous Portera"
-Rob Zombie - "Dragula (Matrix Remix)," "Scum of the Earth"
-Sarah Bettens - "All Of This Past"
-Thrice - "Red Sky"
-Tom McRae - "Ghost of a Shark"

What are some of yours?

Rush - Fly By Night. I saw them live about oh, must have been about 25 years ago and that song stuck in my head for some reason.

Imogen Heap. I really only like Hide and Seek. Awesome example of close harmony.
